While the report draws no conclusions as to the cause of the crash, investigators set out a detailed timeline which focuses heavily on the Mitsubishi CRJ900s descent. The pilot flyingpulled back the thrust levers, and as a result, over the following 5seconds, N1 decreased from 64% to approximately 43%, where it remained until touchdown.

The ACS states that recovery should be completed no lower than 1,500 ft AGL for single-engine aircraft and 3,000 ft AGL for multi-engine aircraft. Initiating a Power-off Stall Now, let’s dive into the stall: Reduce Power Simulate Approach Descent Watch for Stall Warnings 1. Once it’s clear, you’re good to go.

Perhaps just prior to the start of descent could be the optimum time–certainly completed no later than commencement of approach. For example, some aircraft limit flaps and gear in icing until on approach or forbid the use of speed brakes or require a minimum thrust setting. We also benefit from the latest weather updates.

At approximately 30-40 feet agl, the spinning stopped and the helicopter appeared to stabilize for a brief moment before continuing a nose-low, forward descent into the grass north of Runway 28. Feather the blades to generate lift from the upward flow of air during the descent (instead of pushing the air downwards in powered flight).

Thrust : The force generated by the engine that propels the aircraft forward. Pilots must counteract the additional drag with more thrust to maintain altitude. Fly at least 1,500 above ground level (AGL) to allow room for recovery in case you stall the aircraft. Gradually reduce thrust from cruise power.

Fixed-Wing Foibles Consider the Airbus first officer (FO) who tried to satisfy ATCs request to increase their descent (rate), so he engaged open descent mode. The captain took control and applied aft stick pressure to return the airplane to a normal descent pitch attitude to prevent an overspeed.
