Q

Landing technic:

A

50ft start planning to flare at 30.

30ft reduce thrust (light IDLE at 20ft. Heavy IDLE at 10ft.
20ft slowly flare
10ft Kick off crab.
DO NOT keep flaring, keep pitch at 4 deg
(5kts fast = flare 3deg)

Fly onto ground, THEN land nose-wheel (neutral yoke)
Touchdown = reverse IDLE or more.

  • Lower than expected VNAV target speeds
  • Offset does not parallel route.
  • Same waypoint near destination. FMC might choose wrong waypoint.

Select ADF or VOR needles as relevant.

126
Q

Fuel decision? Wx/wind

A

With strong gusty cross winds or trend to crosswind. Consider extra fuel for extra approach incase of windshear.
