11 SIMULATED ASYMMETRIC FLIGHT
Simulated asymmetric flight in the Catalina can be achieved by throttling back the 'dead'
engine to 15" manifold pressure at 1500 RPM.
In all cases of simulated asymmetric flight both RPM levers are to remain set together on
the quadrant, and are to be moved together when resetting RPM, using only the "live"
engine's tachometer to set both lever positions.
In the circuit pattern from Base Turn to Round Out the asymmetric simulation can be
achieved by the Training Captain maintaining a differential throttle setting. At Round Out,
both throttles will be fully closed.
During this procedure the student pilot will only be required to operate the engine which is
deemed to be 'Live'.
In a Go Around situation it is the Training Captains role to set 15" on the selected 'Dead'
engine, and for the student pilot to use whatever power is necessary on the 'Live' engine to
effect the Go Around.
