2/28Jet Safety International– Control / performance Flight
Aircraft attitude is the relationship of its longitudinal and lateral axes to the Earth's horizon. An aircraft is flown by controlling the attitude and power as necessary to produce the desired performance. This is known as the "control and performance concept" of attitude instrument flying and can be applied to any basic flight maneuver.

There are two basic situations that can exist when describing flight of airplanes which will change the methods of controlling the aircraft. For that reason, it becomes very important to understand the POWER CONDITION that you are operating in.
Power ConditionsPower Conditions

There are only TWO basic power conditions for flight. They are known as POWER CONDITION I, and POWER CONDITION 2.

5/28Jet Safety International– Control / performance Flight
Power Condition 1 (PC1) - power is available and variable.
This means that, at the discretion of the pilot, power may be adjusted or changed.
This can also be defined as when the flight path angle, altitude or rate of climb or descent of the aircraft is fixed or constant, and the power is variable.

Some examples of Power Condition 1 (PC1) are
Level Flight (Fixed Altitude)Normal Approach visual approach to Landing (Fixed Flight Path - On VASI or aim-point)ILS approach (Fixed Flight Path - On Glide-slope)Normal Descents
"Note: Normal descents are descents with power set to any position EXCEPT idle power.

7/28Jet Safety International– Control / performance Flight
Power Condition 2 (PC2) - power is fixed by choice or by accident.
This means that if the pilot sets the power to a fixed position, such as MAX POWER, CLIMB POWER or IDLE POWER, or if the power is fixed by accident such as an engine failure, you are operating in PC2.
This can also be defined as when the power is fixed and the flight path is variable.

8/28Jet Safety International– Control / performance Flight
Some examples of Power Condition 2 (PC2) are:
Take-off (Fixed Power at Max Or Predetermined Limit)
Power Off Situations (Fixed Power - by Accident)Idle Power Descents" (Fixed Power At Idle - by Choice)
"Note: Power idle descents (by choice) are not very common when operating reciprocating engines. It
is important to realize that this condition does exist and is more common in jet powered aircraft flying.

When operating in PC2:
Pitch Controls Either Airspeed, Vertical Velocity OR Flight Path Angle.
When operating in PC2, the only variable that can be manipulated is PITCH. It is also reasonable to assume that since we only have one variable (pitch) we can only have one controlled output.
That is why pitch controls EITHER airspeed OR vertical velocity, but not BOTH SIMULTANEOUSLY.

Now that you understand the Power Conditions, you can examine the exact methods of accurate aircraft control. In order to do this, we must discuss the three control inputs that allow you to control the airplane. These are known as the CONTROL PARAMETERS.
There are three Control Parameters that allow you to control altitude, heading and airspeed. They are:
PITCH CONTROL BANK CONTROL POWER (THRUST) CONTROL
"Note: Yaw or rudder is not considered a control parameter in - flight because its only purpose is to compensate adverse yaw either from aileron usage or from asymmetric thrust situations.

In a light single engine airplane, an increase in thrust will increase tail down force, an cause a PITCH UP tendency.

In a light MULTIENGINE TRAINER equipped with a “T - TAIL” an increase or decrease in thrust will have little effect on PITCH because the tail flies in free dynamic pressure.

14/28Jet Safety International– Control / performance Flight
In a high performance BUSINESS JET, an increase or decrease in thrust will have A REVERSE EFFECT on PITCH because the CENTER OF THRUST is above the CENTER OF GRAVITY.
That is an increase in thrust will cause a PITCH DOWN, and a decrease in thrust will cause a PITCH UP.
