FLIGHT SCENARIO PRESENTATION ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW
The purpose of this assignment is to prepare a visual and audio presentation regarding various
flight scenarios to include applicable references from this Multi-Engine Ground Course. A brief
instruction video can be found in the Flight Scenario Presentation Resources.
INSTRUCTIONS
An outcome checklist is provided for each given flight scenario. Be sure to view the
Demonstrations of Desired Outcome Checklist located below before you begin each Flight
Scenario Presentation Assignment.
The visual presentation must include a 5-minute minimum recorded Narrated PowerPoint
presentation thoroughly covering all outcomes posed in the affiliated checklist. A Narrated
PowerPoint includes a PowerPoint that allows the presenter to narrate during the presentation.
Your face must be present in the video as you narrate your PowerPoint. Be creative with your
presentations. It is recommended that you use Kaltura to create your Narrated PowerPoint.
Please click on the link provide under the Flight Scenario Presentation Resources on the
Flight Scenario Presentation Assignment page to explore how to use Kaltura. If you are not
comfortable with Kaltura, you must use a technology medium that allows you to present with a
visual representation and capture your PowerPoint, your face, and audio.
Within the presentation, you must include and cite from appropriate aviation resources. A
minimum of 3 sources is required.
When submitting your presentation, you must submit the PowerPoint you created as well as the
embed the video in the textbox. Please see the How to Submit a Video Presentation tutorial
located under the Flight Scenario Presentation Resources on the Flight Scenario
Presentation Assignment page that will guide you on how to embed your video.
You may use Kaltura, Loom, YouTube, or another online video creation program of your choice;
however, the IT HelpDesk will only be able to assist you if you use Kaltura. You are highly
encouraged to use Kaltura. Links to these video resources can be found in Flight Scenario
Presentation Resources. The instructor cannot provide technical assistance for your video
creation, but you may find many online tools by searching phrases such as “How to record a
video using [Kaltura, Loom, YouTube, ScreenPal, etc.].”
Helpful hints and expectations:
Be sure you are professionally dressed and use an appropriate background.
Do not read directly from your PowerPoint in the video but communicate the most
significant ideas in a format as if you were presenting, teaching, or lecturing to an
audience.
You may use notes but maintain eye contact with the camera as you would an audience.
Your face must be visible as you speak.

Use the created PowerPoint recorded as a screen-capture and ensure that your face is also
visible on the screen along with the screen-capture.
Test the link yourself or have someone else test it before you submit it. A common error
is that the link does not work for the instructor to see your presentation. Another common
error is that the student submits the wrong web address altogether.
Be sure to upload the created PowerPoint to the assignment submission link.
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.

Scenario: Football Crazy
You and two friends are planning a trip from Minneapolis, MN to Dallas, TX to watch the Vikings play
the Cowboys. One of your friends is apprehensive about flying in a light twin engine plane and the other
is a very inquisitive type. He constantly asks what is this and how does it work. With one passenger
needing reassurance and the other always asking about your airplane, you figure you really need to know
your stuff. Discuss with your friends the concepts of the single pilot resource management to ensure them
that you have everything under control. Be sure in your video that you demonstrate a working knowledge
of multiengine airplane systems and emergency procedures. In addition, discuss several alternatives for
handling the emergencies, decide which is best, and explain why you think it is the best solution. Be sure
to review the checklist below to accomplish all required tasks.

Scenario: Baseball Trip
You and a friend are planning to make a 200 mile trip to a professional baseball game. Your boss has
asked you to drop off a business proposal at the branch office there and has given you the company twin
to use for the trip. The weather is forecasted to be VFR for the flight to and from the ball game. You must
effectively plan VFR cross-country flights in your multiengine airplane. You must procure and analyze
aviation weather reports and forecasts necessary for the cross-country flight. You must discuss task, risk,
and automation management as it pertains to takeoffs and climbs, cruise, approaches and landings in
multi-engine cross-country flight operations. You must demonstrate a thorough understanding and
working knowledge of weather, the National Airspace System, and flight planning for multi-engine cross-

During a recent trip, you had an engine that began to run rough and you decide that you need to review
one engine inoperative procedures and operations. Your local flying club is conducting a training session
on the subject at its next meeting. In your video, you should discuss your multi-engine training aircraft
and demonstrates a working knowledge of V-speeds, directional control with one-engine inoperative,
factors affecting VMC, identification and verification of an inoperative engine and feathering and
securing an inoperative engine. Be sure to review the checklist below to accomplish all required tasks.

Scenario: Flying Wild
You are checking out in the flying club’s twin. After completing the check out, you want to make a trip
into a wilderness area, which is located in rolling hills in a neighboring state. For your trip, it will be a
nice summer day, but you will have various field elevations. You have little twin time and no time in this
make and model airplane. Discuss the location of your fictional flight to the rolling hills in the state you
selected. Next, discuss the maneuvering with one engine inoperative, effect of drag on single engine
performance, and the performance charts you referenced. Upload the performance charts you used in this
assignment. You must demonstrate a working knowledge of maneuvering with one engine inoperative,
effects of drag on single engine performance, performance charts applicable to single engine operations,
