Instead, I flew at least 10 approaches to about 6 inches over the runway, but I was not allowed to actually land the airplane. The goal was complete directional control, keeping the longitudinal axis of the airplane perfectly aligned with the centerline of the runway.

Roll or bank is the aircrafts movement about its longitudinal axis. Since theyre located on opposing sides of the longitudinal axis, both ailerons need to move in the opposite directions to complement each others motion. This movement turns the aircraft about the longitudinal axis, making it enter a bank.

They allow roll control about the aircrafts longitudinal axis. Both forces complement each other, and the net torque about the longitudinal axis makes the aircraft roll. It offers pitch control, meaning the aircraft pivots about the lateral axis. Its very useful if youre too high on approach.

Learn to avoid common mistakes during approach, roundout, touchdown, and rollout. We have two main challenges when performing crosswind landings: Staying aligned with the extended centerline on the approach. Touching down with the aircraft’s longitudinal axis aligned with the runway. We call this de-crabbing.

Any accident, regardless of its severity or frequency, highlights the critical importance of maintaining a proactive approach to safety, identifying and addressing potential safety issues and emerging trends, as well as implementing safety measures to reduce the likelihood of an accident. It has since returned to service, however.
