Depending on the wind direction and airport surroundings, you may experience some turbulence. This will reduce your workload in turbulent conditions. It also allows you to focus on flying during the last stages of the approach and landing. It also allows you to focus on flying during the last stages of the approach and landing.

Back in the early days of jet airliners, pilots long experienced in more forgiving two- and four-engine, piston-powered prop planes found themselves running out of airspeed, altitude, and ideas on the final approach to landing. Several of these unstabilized approaches resulted in major aircraft damage or worse. Simple as that.

At one point, we entered a region of sufficient turbulence that I disengaged the autopilot to hand-fly. Since we lost our LPV approaches due to obstructions along the final approach course, the downgraded LNAV minimum descent altitude for the approach to runway 28 was 558 feet above the ground.

This was my flight's final assigned gate. I spotted another green stripes livery on this A330-900neo on final approach to this airport. Announcement was made by the Captain about our flight which we would to expect some turbulence especially along the way but no mention about the flight delay. Goodbye Frankfurt!

As we did so, I was annoyed by an Arrow III that announced a straight in final approach from a few miles out that forced me and Alyssa to extend our downwind to accommodate them. It was a typical turbulent, gusty, unpredictable Mackinac Island arrival.

The International Air Transport Association (IATA) differentiates an accident from an incident by imposing a threshold of aircraft damage set at $1 million. During the landing, following an excessive pitch-up movement by the aircraft, its aft fuselage contacted the runway approximately 326 meters (1,070ft) beyond the runway threshold.
