- Chapter 9: Approaches and Landings › Power-Off Accuracy Approaches › 180° Power-Off Approach
full attention is given to making a good, safe landing rather than concentrating on the selected landing spot. The approach angle used and final approach airspeed determine the probability of landing on the spot, and late adjustments to these parameters ... from the spot than to make a poor landing precisely on or just past the spot. 180° Power-Off Approach The 180° power-off approach is executed by gliding with idle power from a given point on a downwind…

sudden decrease in lift and causes the airplane to sink more rapidly. If there is any doubt about the approach being safely completed, it is advisable to execute an immediate go-around. Figure 9-30. Right and wrong methods ... correction for low final approach. High Final Approach When the final approach is too high, the pilot may lower the flaps as required. Further reduction in power may be necessary, while lowering the nose simultaneously to maintain approach airspeed…
- Chapter 9: Approaches and Landings › Final Approach › Stabilized Approach Concept
acquires is how to use visual cues to discern the true aiming point from any distance out on final approach. From this, the pilot determines if the current glide path will result in either an under or overshoot. Note that ... also able to predict the point of touchdown with some accuracy. When the airplane is established on final approach, the shape of the runway image also presents clues as to what should be done to maintain a stabilized approach…
- Chapter 9: Approaches and Landings › Power-Off Accuracy Approaches › 90° Power-Off Approach
Power-Off Approach The 90° power-off approach is made from a base leg and requires an approximate 90° turn onto the final approach. The approach path may be varied by positioning the base leg closer to or farther ... from the approach end of the runway according to wind conditions. [Figure 9-25] The glide from the key position on the base leg through the 90° turn to the final approach is the final part of all accuracy landing…
- Chapter 9: Approaches and Landings › Faulty Approaches and Landings › Low Final Approach
Faulty Approaches and Landings Landing involves many precise, time-sensitive, and sequential control inputs. When corrected early, small errors are often not noticeable. On the other hand, uncorrected errors may place the airplane and occupants in an undesirable state. Since ... normally includes exposure to landing deviations and their appropriate remedies, this section covers several common landing imperfections. Low Final Approach When the base leg is too low, insufficient power is used, landing flaps are extended prematurely, or the velocity…

wind to prevent drifting farther away from the intended landing spot. Figure 9-3. Base leg and final approach. Final Approach After the base-to-final approach turn is completed, the pilot aligns the longitudinal axis of the airplane with ... centerline of the runway or landing surface. On a final approach, with no crosswind, the longitudinal axis is kept aligned with the runway centerline throughout the final approach and landing. (Methods to correct for a crosswind are explained…
