  below the recommended landing speed. 4. Configuration. The aircraft is in the correct landing configuration with flaps as required; landing gear extended, and is in trim. 5. Descent rate. A descent rate (generally 500-1000 fpm for light general aviation ... descent rate prior to 300 ft AGL. 6. Power setting. The pilot should use a power setting appropriate for the aircraft configuration and not below the minimum power for approach as defined by the AFM. 7. Briefings and checklists. Completing…

  used. This allows the pilot ample opportunity to adjust and stabilize the descent angle after the airplane is configured and trimmed. A stabilized approach is essential. The procedures for landing on a short field or for landing approaches over obstacles ... feet higher than the touchdown area and the use of full flaps at an appropriate point during the final approach. For many general aviation airplanes this means flying a stabilized final approach with the flap setting that precedes full flaps…

  induce a stall warning. Power is reduced further during this phase, and trimming should cease at speeds slower than takeoff. When the airplane reaches the stall warning (e.g., aural alert, buffet, etc.), the recovery is accomplished by first reducing ... airplane should be accelerated to VX (if simulated obstacles are present) or VY during recovery and climb. Considerable forward elevator/stabilator pressure will be required after the stall recovery as the airplane accelerates to VX or VY. Appropriate trim input should…

  airplane remains trimmed at the pre-maneuver cruising speed, strong aft (back) control pressure is needed on the elevator, which will make precise control difficult. Slow flight is typically performed and evaluated in the landing configuration. Therefore, both the landing ... recommended the prescribed before-landing checks be completed to configure the airplane. The extension of gear and flaps typically occurs once cruise power has been reduced and at appropriate airspeeds to ensure limitations for extending those devices are not exceeded…
