Power settings are approximate and will vary with aircraft weight,<br />

altitude, etc. Make corrections as needed. Throughout this<br />

manual, when mandated by procedure to establish a specific power<br />

setting, a power setting within +3% is acceptable. The only<br />

exception is for procedures that mandate a 4-6 % power setting to<br />

simulate the feathered condition.<br />

210. THE ONE-THIRD RULE<br />

Since the airplane will continue turning as long as there is any bank, the rollout must be started<br />

before reaching the desired heading. The amount required to lead the heading will depend on the<br />

rate of turn and the rate at which the rollout will be made; however, a good rule of thumb is to<br />

start the rollout one-third the number of degrees of angle of bank in use. Example: If a 30º angle<br />

of bank turn was being used, the rollout would be started 10º prior to the desired heading. As the<br />

wings become level, the control pressures should be gradually and smoothly released so that the<br />

controls are neutralized as the airplane assumes straight-and-level flight. As the rollout is being<br />

completed, attention should be given to outside visual references as well as the PFD to determine<br />

that the wings are being leveled precisely and the turn stopped.<br />

211. USE OF THE SPEED BRAKE<br />

The speed brake is available for use during all instrument flights. Many times in flight a pilot<br />

will find himself high on energy with little time or distance left to correct the problem.
