degrees Less than one second before touchdown, the plane had an indicated airspeed of 134 knots, a ground speed of 111 knots, a bank angle of 7.1 Obviously it was gusty, but if youre not able to stabilize an approach, thats when a go around would ordinarily be performed.

Danger lurks in circling approaches Air Facts Journal the circling approach maneuver is designed as a last resort, non-precision approach. The very first question that should pop up into our head during a circling approach is “Why are we circling in the first place”? The n ext one is “What are our other options?”

Practicing stalls will also help you learn the low airspeed flight characteristics of the airplane, and how to control the airplane at low airspeeds which is what you will encounter while maneuvering in the traffic pattern and approaching to land. As the airspeed slows into the white arc, extend the wing flaps.

If you’re aiming to get comfortable with managing both airspeed and altitude in flight, you’ll need to understand the difference between indicated airspeed (IAS) and true airspeed (TAS). Key Takeaways Airspeed and altitude are directly linked to each other throughout different phases of your flight. Why is that?

As the helicopter continued towards the airport, the airspeed began to decrease. The indicated airspeed had fallen below 65 knots and was still decreasing. As the airspeed decayed, the right yaw increased. The helicopter was at treetop height with an indicated airspeed of zero knots when the right yaw ceased.

That’s why the fresh approach Cirrus took to its next model in the SR series makes a lot of sense. Stephen Yeates] A Beginner’s Mind When you must approach something from a fresh perspective, it helps to go into a beginner’s mindset. It also prevents you from retracting the flaps when airspeed is too low.
