As we approached the gate, my phone rang again. The RNAV approach to the 7,000-foot Runway 31 that snakes around from the Runway 4 extended centerline, loops past Citi Field, and rolls out on a tight-in final approach. When you’re already this far down our particular approach, there wasn’t a lot of time for anything.

There’s a reference to the first check in the docket which does not appear in the final report. A mechanic said that he had been approached by his supervisor and asked to verify the torque application on the tail rotor mast nut on the helicopter.

While waiting for everyone to be settled down, one of the crew approach me and asked if I was willing to move to the emergency row, but it was a middle seat. After flying through the clouds, we were greeted by the gloomy looking weather but it was a smooth approach and landing to runway 27 of Mumbai airport. Almost there!

So that added another 10 minutes of flight time but I was treated to a spectacular view of the city during approach. At this point, we were on final approach. Reverse thrust was deployed. Later on just before arrival, we were slightly delayed to arrive at Fukuoka due to heavy traffic at that time.

At this point, we were on final approach as landing gears were deployed and flaps were set. On final approach onto runway 20R. Reverse thrusts were deployed and our aircraft slowed down to taxi speed. Once we were released from our holding pattern, we were given instructions to prepare for arrival.

More air molecules in engine cylinders allow the engine to produce more power; more air molecules moving across the propellor blades and wings means more efficient thrust and lift. The approach and taxi are time compressed; the landing is normal speed. As altitude increases, air molecules spread out, resulting in less power and lift.

At this point, we were on final approach to runway 31L. Reverse thrusts were deployed to slow our aircraft down. Many hours later, we started our descent into New York. At this point, the flight was smooth thanks to the good weather. We landed smoothly on runway 31L. Welcome back to the U.S!

We were on final approach onto runway 02L, greeted by the familar sighting of the Eastern part of Singapore. Reverse thrust was deployed (only on the 2nd and 3rd engine) to slow the aircraft down to taxi speed. I am certainly a fan of these type of this view. At this point, we started our descent into Changi Airport.

The aircraft touched down about 100 feet (30 meters) short of the runway, causing the rear radome to strike the ground and the main landing gear to hit the approach lighting system. The incident occurred while the crew was conducting a low-visibility approach through dense fog. The mishap led to the crew ejecting from the aircraft.

Haynes took the controls and, noting the same control issues, reduced thrust on the number one engine, which resulted in the aircraft rolling out in a wings-level attitude, giving the crew critical time to evaluate the dire situation Flight 232 was facing. The plane entered a descending right-hand turn.

That is the thrust reverser which is used only during landing or abortion of take off, to slow the aircraft to taxi speed or come to a complete stop.

Glide control and approach management are life-saving without engine thrust. When your aircraft loses thrust, youll have to glide it safely to the ground using only aerodynamic control. The FAA requires pilots to practice power-off approaches to ensure they can handle real-world emergencies. What Is a Deadstick Landing?

Detecting them is difficult, which makes final approach and landing especially dangerous. When you fly into a microburst on approach or departure, youll first encounter a strong headwind, which will give you a brief lift. This can fool anyone easily, and could lead to disaster during approach.

This configuration provides the necessary power for both climb and cruise, while also offering valuable training for managing asymmetric thrust in the event of an engine-out situation. When learning how to land a Piper Seminole, it is crucial to understand the role of each engine in the approach and landing phases.

One of them informed us about the weather and possible thunderstorm at Delhi Airport and he mentioned about the smooth ride when they flew in from Delhi so we could be expecting smooth ride during cruising but possible turbulence when we approach Delhi. Before I know it, we were on our final approach.
