Page Number: 4-26
Date of Revision: 11/23/18
NOTE
It is recommended that a slightly higher airspeed be
used on final approach during gusty or turbulent wind
conditions. Add approximately one (1) mph or one (1)
knot IAS for each two (2) knots of reported gust.
4.4.3.7 Short Field Procedures
4.4.3.7.1 Takeoff
Using the first notch of flaps (15°), add power while
holding the aircraft on the brakes. Release the brakes
and allow the tail to rise. Rotate at about 40 mph or 35
knots, accelerate to V
X
(50 mph or 43 knots) and climb
out until obstacle clearance is achieved, then raise flaps
and decrease climb rate as desired.
4.4.3.7.2 Landing
Make a normal approach and use two notches of flaps
(35°). After clearing obstacles, the third notch/full flaps
(50°) should be used for the final descent to the landing
area. Power should be used as required to arrest the
descent.
4.4.3.8 Soft Field Procedures
For soft field operations, proper use of the elevator and
very mild braking should be exercised to prevent the
aircraft from getting stuck or nosing over. Takeoff should
be performed in three-point configuration. Landings
should be made in three-point configuration,
concentrating on a soft touch-down.
