Gyroscopic Flight Instruments
• Several flight instruments utilize the properties of a gyroscope for their operation.
• The most common instruments containing gyroscopes are the turn coordinator, heading indicator, and the attitude indicator.
• 1931 — Amelia Earhart climbs to a record altitude of 18,415 feet in a Pitcairn Autogiro at Willow Grove, near Philadelphia.

• 1940 — The United States Navy places a contract with Grumman for two prototypes of the XTBF-1, later named “Avenger,” a chunky mid-wing monoplane that would become the United States Navy's standard carrier torpedo bomber of World War II.

• 1943 — Republic P-47 “Thunderbolts” were first flown in combat over Western Europe.
manuals (AFM), the pilot’s operating handbook (POH), and aircraft documents pertaining to ownership, airworthiness, maintenance, and operations with inoperative equipment.
Pilots Operating Handbook / Airplane Flight Manual
• The typical AFM/POH contains the following nine sections: • General; • Limitations; • Emergency Procedures; • Normal Procedures; • Performance; • Weight and
Balance/Equipment List; • Systems Description; • Handling, Service, and
be flown legally, it must be registered with the FAA Aircraft Registry.
• The Certificate of Aircraft Registration, which is issued to the owner as evidence of the registration, must be carried in the aircraft at all times.
Airworthiness Certificate
• An Airworthiness Certificate is issued by a representative of the FAA after the aircraft has been inspected, is found to meet the requirements of 14 CFR part 21, and is in condition for safe operation.
Airworthiness Certificate• The Airworthiness
Certificate must be displayed in the aircraft so it is legible to the passengers and crew whenever it is operated.
• The Airworthiness Certificate is transferred with the aircraft except when it is sold to a foreign purchaser.
Airworthiness Inspections• 14 CFR part 91,
subpart E, requires the inspection of all civil aircraft at specific intervals to determine the overall condition.
• The interval depends upon the type of operations in which the aircraft is engaged.
• When the FAA adopted the minimum equipment list (MEL) concept for 14 CFR part 91 operations, this allowed operations with inoperative equipment determined to be nonessential for safe flight.
• Maintaining the aircraft in an airworthy condition, including compliance with all applicable ADs, and assuring that maintenance is properly recorded.
• Keeping abreast of current regulations concerning the operation and maintenance of the aircraft.
• Notifying the FAA Aircraft Registry immediately of any change of permanent mailing address, or of the sale or export of the aircraft, or of the loss of the eligibility to register an aircraft.
