Trike: theory lessons and exams

Weather, navigation, technique and decisions: These topics will accompany your practical trike training.

Understand what you experience in the air

Theoretical lessons are part of safe flying. You learn to classify information and prepare decisions. Discuss the form of teaching, learning materials and exam process with your school.

Air Law and Radio

Airspace, flight rules and an orderly communication at the airfield and on the road.

Meteorological data

Wind, cloud, visibility and weather development in relation to a planned trike flight.

Navigation

Map, route, orientation and a comprehensible preparation for cross-country flights.

Technology and Aerodynamics

Airfoil, weight control, engine, equipment and the boundaries of the respective pattern.

People and Decisions

Performance, attention, load and a realistic approach to your own experience.

Specific situations

Preparation for deviations from normal procedures and the procedures of the AFM.

From training to examination

For the German standard route without prior training, the DULV calls 60 hours theory. Theoretical examination and practical examination shall be approved by a competent Examination Council. The school prepares the necessary proof and registration with you.

  • Learning plan and teaching fully coordinate with the school.
  • Connect understanding questions with real examples from your flights.
  • Timely examine evidence of formal qualifications, medical and briefings.
  • Consider examination flight, fees and arrival of the examiner in the budget.

Reworking with spatial images

The own videos help to recognize construction, training path and course round. They do not contain mandatory speeds or type procedures.
