On final approach, it can be the difference between recovering and crashing. Initiating a Power-off Stall Now, let’s dive into the stall: Reduce Power Simulate Approach Descent Watch for Stall Warnings 1. Use of Flaps During Recovery Once you arrest the descent and recover from the stall, you need to clean up.

Brief that you will use the right rudder to align the aircraft straight with the runway and the left aileron to counteract drift. It also allows you to focus on flying during the last stages of the approach and landing. Descent Point Nominate a descent point that will give you a constant 3° profile to the threshold.

Key Takeaways Bounced landings can result from excessive speed, improper flare, or high descent rates. Improper Flare Technique The flare is a maneuver where you elevate the aircraft’s nose slightly just before landing to decrease the descent rate. You should use the rudder to do this. Was it a small or a big bounce?

The approach for the soft-field landing is similar to the normal approach. The major difference between the two is that a degree of power is used throughout the level-off and touchdown for the soft-field landing so as to control the descent rate all the way to touch down. VS0 should be used.

Perfect the approach phase by managing the aircraft’s energy and using references to improve positioning throughout the pattern. See how the wind affects the base leg and how you can compensate for it and safely execute the base-to-final turn. Flying the Approach Haphazard approaches are very likely to lead to haphazard landings.

We continued our descent for a couple of seconds and then he began a turn again to the left towards the taxiway. NTSB ERA22LA393 shows an airplane slow on approach that flared high. Although the traffic pattern was otherwise normal, the base leg was to the end of the runway, with no provision for final approach.

At one point, we were watching an RV on final approach when a green and white Citabria swooped into view from above the restaurant in a steep, descending turn and appeared to cut off the RV. In the descent, wind direction rotated counterclockwise until it became a direct southerly crosswind.
