We will also examine the next most critical phase of our flight, from descent and deceleration to the approach and landing phases, even touching upon what happens when the aircraft arrives safely at the gate.

Anyway we were informed about the turbulence and for this flight, the first officer did the announcements. There were a few good bumps during take off and more of it during the descent especially flying through the clouds. Once we were cleared of the clouds, it was smooth ride all the way until descent. Almost there!

The “Model 27,” as it was originally called, was powered by the experimental Westinghouse J34 jet engine, which produced 3,000 pounds of thrust. In a feat of incredible airmanship, he immediately began an emergency descent and landed the Goblin prototype on Muroc Dry Lake in California. A belly skid had been installed for the test.

Depending on the wind direction and airport surroundings, you may experience some turbulence. This will reduce your workload in turbulent conditions. Descent Point Nominate a descent point that will give you a constant 3° profile to the threshold. We can calculate the rate of descent required to achieve a 3° profile.

The elevator, situated on the horizontal tail surface, adjusts pitch, raising or lowering the nose for ascent or descent. The collective adjusts the pitch angle of all rotor blades simultaneously, controlling vertical movementraising the collective increases lift for ascent, while lowering it causes descent.

Thrust : The force generated by the engine that propels the aircraft forward. Pilots must counteract the additional drag with more thrust to maintain altitude. Higher altitudes are also less prone to turbulence and have fewer birds. Turbulent air will require a larger airspeed margin. Don’t go all the way back to idle.

For the flight itself, after take off at Delhi, we encountered quite a bit of turbulence and also more turbulence happened during the crossing through the Bay of Bengal. At least when we started our descent, the weather was much better, descending and landing in smooth condition. At this point, we started our descent.
