The objective of this study was to investigate the constant pitch attitude strategy as a possible non-precision maneuver for recovery from inadvertent wind shear encounters. The Wind Shear Training Aid published by the FAA recommends that upon encountering a severe wind shear, the pilot should apply maximum thrust and rotate the aircraft to an initial pitch target angle of 15 degrees. The 15 degrees target was identified through rigorous analyses using six-degree-of-freedom flight simulators and microburst models representative of actual accident cases. It was found that 15 degrees was an effective target for a wide range of shears, and was generally applicable to most jet transports. This work was undertaken to examine the issue of recovery performance in wind shear of other classes of aircraft - notably turboprop commuters and propeller-driven general aviation planes. It should be possible to postulate a target pitch angle (TPA) for such aircraft, as well.
