From the FAA library
- Chapter 14: Transition to Tailwheel Airplanes › Touchdown › Crosswinds
eliminate crab and drift at touchdown. By far the best approach to crosswind management is a side slip or wing-low touchdown. Landing in this attitude, only one main wheel makes initial contact, either in concert with the tailwheel…
- Chapter 9: Approaches and Landings › Intentional Slips
preclude fuel starvation caused when fuel is forced to one side of a tank in uncoordinated flight. If a forward slip is being used to reach a landing area in an actual engine-out emergency, the time limitation or fuel…
- Chapter 9: Approaches and Landings › Normal Approach and Landing › After-Landing Roll
avoid over-controlling. The ailerons serve the same purpose on the ground as they do in the air—they change the lift and drag components of the wings. During the after-landing roll, they are used to keep the wings ... that wing to lower it. The amount required depends on speed because as the forward speed of the airplane decreases, the ailerons become less effective. Procedures for using ailerons in crosswind conditions are explained in the “Crosswind Approach and Landing…
- Chapter 9: Approaches and Landings › Power-Off Accuracy Approaches › 90° Power-Off Approach
used as necessary to control the glide angle and airspeed. A crab or side slip can be used to maintain the desired flight path. A forward slip may be used momentarily to steepen the descent without changing the airspeed. Full ... flaps should be delayed until it is clear that adding them will not cause the landing to be short of the point. The pilot should never try to stretch the glide or retract the flaps to reach the desired landing…
- Chapter 16: Transition to Jet-Powered Airplanes › Thrust Reversers
deploying spoilers on landing is that they create considerable drag, adding to the overall aerodynamic braking. The primary purpose of speed brakes is to produce drag. Spoilers may also serve as speed brakes, or they may be panels attached ... approach planning. Procedures for the use of spoilers and/or speed brakes in various situations are contained in the FAA-approved AFM for the particular airplane. Thrust Reversers Jet airplanes have high kinetic energy during the landing roll because of weight…
- Chapter 5. ICING OPERATIONS › 5-11. WING STALL › e. Landing
increased risk of a stall, the pilot should avoid uncoordinated flight such as side or forward slips and, to the extent possible, crosswind landings should be restricted because of their adverse effect on pitch control and the possibility of reduced…
