Approach and Landing Speeds
18.
Circuit Speeds. For easy transition to final approach speeds it is recommended that
pilots slow to approximately 125 MPH upon entering the traffic pattern. Specific guidance on
the traffic pattern is as follows:
a.
slowing to approximately 125 MPH can be accomplished with a power setting of
2400 RPM and 20” MAP;
b.
if desired, a slower airspeed of approximately 115 MPH can be achieved with
power setting of 2400 RPM and 18” MAP. At this airspeed, it is recommended to
select flaps to 10 degrees to prevent an excessive nose-up attitude in the circuit;
and
c.
if desired, a slower airspeed of approximately 115 MPH can be achieved with
power setting of 2400 RPM and 18” MAP. At this airspeed, it is recommended to
select flaps to 10 degrees to prevent an excessive nose-up attitude in the circuit.

Approach Speeds. Normal approach and landing speeds are based on the selected
flap setting, and are detailed below:
Flap Setting
Approach Speed
0º
70-80 MPH IAS
20º
75-85 MPH IAS
35º
80-90 MPH IAS

CAUTION
In gusty wind conditions, add half the gust spread to the final
approach speed.
