Content: You’re not only learning how controls respond at low speeds, you’re also getting to practice a simulated landing at a safe altitude. If you goof you have a 1,500-plus ft. margin for error. Knowledge Test
When performing any practice maneuvers, make clearing turns before you start. That means turning your aircraft left for a 90-degree turn, then right for 90 degrees, checking around you to see what other traffic is nearby. The clearing maneuver also tells other aircraft in the area that you’re going to practice maneuvers and that they should stay clear. During your FAA practical test your flight examiner is apt to flunk you if you don’t remember your clearing turns!
