10.1 Flight Training Supplement
Approach in rain showers
Raindrops on the wing surfaces influence the aerodynamic characteristics of the airfoil, drag will increase
while lift decreases. The airfoil used on the REMOS GX features stable flight characteristics in rain
conditions. So there are no special advisories for flights within rain, we recommend to operate the aircraft
like in turbulent weather conditions (see "Approach in turbulent weather conditions).
Approach in the slip configuration
If a high descent rate is required on final, we recommend to conduct a slip maneuver. In no case, push
the control stick forward, this will cause higher airspeeds and result in a missed approach!
Conducting an approach in the slip configuration will not require special skills, nevertheless, if not yet
familiar with the aircraft we recommend to do this exercise only when accompanied by a experienced
flight instructor for the first time.
10 Touch
Down
Touch down under normal conditions
Landing the REMOS GX is much easier than landing many other aircraft. The aircraft has very good low
speed characteristics and so is very controllable all the way through the landing phase. After a good
approach has been conducted the REMOS GX does not require much action to result with a perfect touch
down. It is important to establish a safe and stable airspeed during the approach.
