- Chapter 18: Emergency Procedures › Emergency Descents
allows the propeller to act as an aerodynamic brake to help prevent an excessive airspeed buildup during the descent. The landing gear and flaps should be extended as recommended by the manufacturer. This provides maximum drag so that the descent ... design maneuvering speed (VA) limitations. The descent should be made at the maximum allowable airspeed consistent with the procedure used. This provides increased drag and a high rate of descent. The recovery from an emergency descent should be initiated…

involved in an emergency situation will be given priority. If the pilot is not familiar with the specific approach procedure, ATC should be advised and they will provide detailed information on the execution of the procedure. h. The name ... issued that the inoperative or unreliable approach aid component is unusable, except when the title of the published approach procedures otherwise allows, for example, ILS or LOC. i. Pilots planning flights to locations which are private airfields or which have…

provided, the pilot should conform to radar vectors when provided by ATC in lieu of the published missed approach procedure. (See FIG 5-4-31.) e. Some locations may have a preplanned alternate missed approach procedure ... event the primary NAVAID used for the missed approach procedure is unavailable. To avoid confusion, the alternate missed approach instructions are not published on the chart. However, the alternate missed approach holding pattern will be depicted on the instrument approach…

type of equipment may be used to execute the final approach (e.g., VOR or GPS RWY 15). NOTE-This procedure identification method has changed and these procedures will be revised in the course of the normal procedure amendment process ... slash and equipment (e.g., /DME) information will be removed with future amendments. Pilots should review the procedure’s notes, planview annotations, and PBN/equipment requirements boxes to determine the capability needed to accomplish the procedure. (b) In some cases, other types…

airplanes, they are also used as an aid in directional control when more positive control is required than could be obtained with rudder or nose-wheel steering alone. To use brakes, on an airplane equipped with toe brakes, the pilot ... slides the toes or feet up from the rudder pedals to the brake pedals. If rudder pressure is being held at the time braking action is needed, the pilot should not release that pressure as the feet or toes…
- Chapter 9: Approaches and Landings › Short-Field Approach and Landing
airspeed and a windmilling propeller blocking airflow over the elevator may make it difficult to flare. Upon touchdown, the airplane is held in this positive pitch attitude as long as the elevators remain effective and if recommended by the manufacturer ... This provides aerodynamic braking to assist in deceleration. However, immediately upon touchdown of the nose-wheel, maximum braking is applied to minimize the after-landing roll. For most airplanes, aerodynamic drag is the single biggest factor in slowing the aircraft…
