Upon his return, he reported that both right-hand and left-hand rear stabilizers had sustained damage. NTSB Fitch continued to make small manipulations of the engine controls as the aircraft crossed the runway threshold, still maintaining a straight and level attitude but at a landing speed much higher than normal.

Well, for sure the training of pilots in swept-wing jets has improved dramatically, and the aircraft, runway environment, and approach aids have all made significant leaps forward. However, the capstone of all these efforts was the adoption of stabilized approach criteria and procedures on every approach and landing.

The ILS (Instrument Landing System) uses radio signals to help pilots align the aircraft accurately on their approach to a runway. An “ILS approach” is a landing procedure using the Instrument Landing System (ILS) to guide an aircraft to the runway. Lets learn more about this system! Precision Approaches (e.g.,

Key Takeaways Start by setting up your approach correctly to ensure you arrive at the threshold perfectly every time. You can only begin improving the touchdown if you’ve mastered positioning your aircraft above the runway threshold correctly. The easiest way to achieve this is by flying a stabilized approach.

A bounced landing is a condition where the aircraft lands on the runway, but instead of rolling on the surface after touchdown, it rebounds/bounces off the ground. This can happen for several reasons: Landing Too Fast At high speeds, your aircraft may be unable to slow down enough before touching down on the runway.

Unlike paved runways, every soft landing surface is different. Obstructions: Ensure the runway is clear of obstacles, from stones to animals. You can walk down the length of the runway. If the runway is too wet, it might be temporarily closed. They’re happy to tell you the status of the airport and runways.

But landing it safely on the runway is a skill. Brief that you will use the right rudder to align the aircraft straight with the runway and the left aileron to counteract drift. Descent Point Nominate a descent point that will give you a constant 3° profile to the threshold. Brief the runway conditions.
