5. Postflight critique and preview of next lesson

The lesson will have been successfully completed when the student displays proficiency in the four fundamentals of flight by maintaining altitude, ±250 ft.; airspeed, ±20 kt.; and heading, ±20°. During this and subsequent flight lessons, the student will be proficient in the preflight inspection, engine starting, taxiing, the before-takeoff check, and the postflight procedures without instructor assistance. The student will perform normal and crosswind takeoffs without instructor assistance. The student will show an increase in proficiency in traffic patterns and approaches with the instructor still performing the landing. Finally, the student will display an understanding of maneuvering during slow flight, the indications of an approaching stall, the proper recovery procedures, and the conditions necessary for a spin to occur.
