Before reaching FAF brief plan for circling approach:
From MDA circle ____ (left/right) for RWY ____. Remain within 1.5 nm from RWY. If lose
visual of RWY execute missed approach. (turn to parallel approach course and execute
published missed)
Continuing from Precision or Non-precision approach
1.
Announce 100’ from MDA:
“100 to go”
2.
MDA
1.
Announce:
“Minimum”
2.
GUMPS check
3.
Level off at MDA using apx 20” MP, 100 KAIS
3.
Commence circling approach procedures, Maintain 100 KIAS and stay within 1.5 nm
from runway (category B minimums)
4.
While turning base still above MDA
1.
Flaps—20 (2 engines),
No Flaps on single engine approach/landing
, Final
GUMPS check
5.
Announce:
“Landing, leaving MDA”
before descending below MDA (must be able to
make a stabilized approach to land on base or final before descending below MDA)
6.
On final announce:
“Gear down, Stabalized”
7.
Flaps—Full (2 engines),
No Flaps on single engine approach/landing
8.
Airspeed 85 (blueline) until landing is assured
9.
Continue stabilize approach to runway (no more than 600 fpm descent)
10.
Reduce power smoothly when landing is assured
HOLDING
1.
Slow to 100 KIAS holding speed 3 minutes to fix
2.
Acquire EFC
3.
Hold at 100 KIAS, apx 17” MP, established in hold when passing holding fix, 6 T’s
4.
Report altitude and time at holding fix
