You should expect to see questions that show you understand what happens when you change an aircraft’s balance, stability, and center of gravity. 1: To avoid a possible collision with a manned airplane, you estimate that your small UA climbed to an altitude greater than 600 feet agl. There is only one task.

This tendency is due to their high center of gravity and heavy engine over the nose wheel. As with any landing, it’s vital to have a stabilized approach. If you’re not stabilized at 200 feet AGL, go around. If the nose wheel digs in at high speeds, it can result in a loss of control.

The pilot reported that he was too high and fast crossing the threshold 70 feet above ground level (AGL) at 90 mph. Halfway down the runway the airplane was about 30 feet AGL at a speed of about 45 mph, and oscillating 20 degrees either side of center. Post-almost-flight investigation proved embarrassing. Other than that, what?
