First question.
...when I had a few questions pop up that I have no clue as to the answer. Figured I'd ask.
Biplanes...Low (relatively) pressure above the low wing and above the high wing. But relatively higher pressure below the wings (still low, but...higher than the low above the wing). Does the higher pressure below the top wing cancel out the low pressure above the bottom wing?
If I confused you, I'll apologize in advance.
Second question.
In the carubretor, the air goes through the venturi and is accellerated, the pressure drops and so does the temp. Cold air can't hold as much moisture as warm air, so the moisture comes out and can freeze and voila...carb ice.
Same thing. Wing. Air over the wing is accellerated and the pressure drops. I would imagine the temperature does too. Their question. What temperature range are you going to pick up ice. The best I could give them was a figure I was told in CSEL ground school a few months ago which was 2 to -20 degrees C. Any opinions/thoughts on that one?
Third question.
This one is from me...not from them.
I'm going to be teaching an instrument student. He wants to learn in a 172 with dual nav/com, two VORs one with GS, an ADF and DME. Obviously, I'll be teaching the VOR, VOR/DME, NDB, ILS, LOC, etc. approaches...
We have a diamond with G530/430 available too. Any harm in taking one or two flights and having him go in the diamond to shoot the GPS approaches? I'd like to at least teach my students the approaches unlike how I was taught (by a CFII friend of mine a month after my instrument checkride).
Also, the other way. I have a student that will be doing his instrument shortly in the Diamond. So it's VOR, GPS, ILS/LOC, etc. Any harm in taking him up in the 172 for 1-2 flights for the NDB approaches/holds?
I just want to make sure I don't miss anything.
Thanks for any help!
