Landing
• Caution •
Landings should be made with full flaps. Landings with less
than full flaps are recommended only if the flaps fail to deploy
or to extend the aircraft’s glide distance due to engine
malfunction. Landings with flaps at 50% or 0%; power should
be used to achieve a normal glidepath and low descent rate.
Flare should be minimized.
Normal Landing
Normal landings are made with full flaps with power on or off. Surface
winds and air turbulence are usually the primary factors in determining
the most comfortable approach speeds.
Actual touchdown should be made with power off and on the main
wheels first to reduce the landing speed and subsequent need for
braking. Gently lower the nose wheel to the runway after airplane
speed has diminished. This is especially important for rough or soft
field landings.
