Turns Around a Point

The objective of practicing turns around a point is to develop the pilot's division of attention between the flight path and ground references and recognition of drift toward or away from a prominent ground reference point while maintaining a constant altitude. This maneuver requires flying the plane in two or more circles around a uniform radius from a prominent ground reference point.
