Instructor
In this course, you’ll learn about the four main forces of flight—lift, weight, thrust, and drag—and how they work together to keep an airplane flying straight and level.
You’ll see what happens when the balance shifts and how pilots adjust pitch attitude and speed to stay in control. By the end, you’ll understand why level flight is a foundation for all flying skills and how pilots use it before advancing to more complex maneuvers.
Additionally, you'll gain insights into the importance of understanding aerodynamics in various weather conditions, which can greatly impact flight performance. This foundational knowledge will prepare you for more specialized topics as you progress through your aviation journey.
