Around 13 seconds before touchdown as the aircraft was descending through 153 feet above ground level (AGL) the TSB said the CRJ900s indicated airspeed increased to 154 knots whereas the ground speed did not change appreciably, consistent with a performance-increasing wind gust. The bank angle increased to a 4.7right bank.

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?

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. These details should be revealed in subsequent reports.

As the airspeed slows into the white arc, extend the wing flaps. When the airplane is stabilized in the approach attitude and speed, begin to smoothly and slowly bring the nose up to an attitude which will cause a stall. The main factors which determine the angle of attack of a wing are, airspeed, weight, and load factor.

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.

What specific indicated airspeed will be flown/adhered to during the circling maneuver? FAA parameters are no lower than 500’ AGL for stabilized criteria What specific runway lighting do we expect to see? Is the airport have an operable FAA tower or is it an uncontrolled field environment? What speed on final approach?

As the airspeed approaches the desired airspeed, the airspeed indicator becomes the primary power instrument and the altimeter is primary for pitch. Fine tune power and pitch as the airplane stabilizes at the new airspeed. Adjustments of the climb attitude will be dictated by the indicated airspeed.
