(a) Carry out pre-flight checks as required by the BMFA Safety Codes.(b) Take off and complete a left (or right) hand circuit
and overfly the take-off area.
(c) Fly a ‘figure of eight’ course with the crossover point in front of the pilot, height to be constant. This manoeuvre
must
be flown more accurately than the similar manoeuvre in the ‘A’ certificate test.
(d) Fly into wind and complete one inside loop.
(e) Fly downwind and complete one outside loop downwards from the top (i.e. a bunt).
For aircraft (scale aircraft specifically) which for reasons of structural strength or control limitations cannot perform
an outside loop, a Split S or Reversal (from level flight, half roll to inverted, hold, then pull through half loop to recover
in level flight) may be accepted by the Examiner.
(f) Complete two consecutive rolls into wind.
(g) Complete two consecutive rolls downwind using the opposite direction of roll rotation to that used in (f) above.
(h) Complete a stall turn either left or right.
(i) Gain height and perform a three turn spin. For aircraft which will not spin, a spin attempt resulting in a spiral dive
(not necessarily of three turns), will be acceptable. In each case the initial heading and the recovery heading must be into
wind and the model must fall into the spin (no ‘flick’ spin entry).
(j) Fly a rectangular landing approach and overshoot from below 10 ft. Note that this manoeuvre is an aborted landing, not
a low pass.
(k) Fly a rectangular circuit in the opposite direction to that in (j) at a constant height of not more than 40 feet.
(l) Fly a rectangular landing approach and land (wheels to touch within a pre-designated 30 metre boundary).
(m) Complete post-flight checks as required by the BMFA Safety Codes.
