6. Too low on final- INCREASE RPM. DO NOT RETRACT FLAPS when flying low over
high obstacles or close to the ground!
7.11 Normal landing
1. Direction- ALIGN the airplane WITH THE RUNWAY using rudder pedals.
2. Side drift- ELIMINATE by banking against the drift (crosswind, if any).
3. Flare- start at 5 m (15ft), level off at approximately 0 . 3 m (1 ft) .
Gradually reduce bank and side drift while flaring and leveling off.
4. Throttle- IDLE.
5. Touchdown- at minimum speed. In cross-wind conditions- maintain banking into wind
till touching the runway with one of the wheels. Avoid touching ground with the tail.
6. Yoke - HOLD to reduce the speed and PUSH gently to lower the nose wheel slowly.
Pedals - set NEUTRAL before touching ground with the nose wheel (in cross-wind
conditions).
7 . Brakes- ENGAGE as required. Avoid braking at a high speed or nose wheel up!
8.
Flaps- RETRACT .
7.12 Short field landing
1 . Flaps- EXTEND FULLY .
2 . Approach distance- REDUCE by side slipping when clear of obstacles.
3. Approach speed on final - 90 km/h (49 kts), +10 km/h (+5 kts) in rain or strong
turbulence.
4. Direction- ALIGN the airplane WITH THE RUNWAY using rudder pedals .
5 . Side drift- ELIMINATE by banking against the drift (crosswind, if any).
6.
Flare- start at 5 m (15ft), level off at approximately 0.3 m (1 ft).
Gradually reduce bank and side drift while flaring and leveling off .
7. Throttle- IDLE.
8.
Touchdown - at m1n1mum speed at the beginning of the runway. In cross-wind
conditions- maintain banking into wind till touching the runway with one of the wheels .
Avoid touching ground with the tail.
9. Flaps- RETRACT.
10. Yoke - HOLD to reduce the speed and PUSH gently to lower the nose wheel slowly .
Pedals - set NEUTRAL before touching ground with the nose wheel (in cross-wind
conditions).
11 . Brakes- ENGAGE as required . Avoid braking at a high speed or nose wheel up!
7.13 Balked landing
1. Throttle- gradually FULL POWER .
2. Descent- DISCONTINUE .
3 . Speed- accelerate to at least 100 km/h (54 kts) flying level.
4. Climb- at 100 km/h (54 kts).
5. Flaps- RETRACT SLOWLY at safe altitude.
