No Flap Landing

  1. Select the arrow marking before the threshold as the aiming point(at RHV).
  2. Before landing check.
  3. Set throttle 1400RPM, check airspeed, pitch for 65kt, Start descend.
  4. Turn base. Maintain 65kt. Fly normal glide path.
  5. Turn final. Maintain 65kt. Fly normal glide path.
  6. 1. thorough 5. Since your aiming point is before threshold, VASI will be red over pink on final though you are making normal descent. But you don’t want to be too low. Check altitude when you turn base, final to verify your descent path. Adjust power and pitch as necessary to maintain the path.

  7. Adjust power to maintain normal path.
  8. When there is strong head wind, you can maintain correct flight path by adjusting power. When there is no head wind, for example in the morning, you will be too high even though your power is idle. Don’t push nose down too much. Otherwise you can’t keep 65kt. Pitch attitude for 65kt without flap is higher than the attitude for normal landing with flap. So, keep nose high enough to maintain 65kt, check airspeed frequently, adjust power.

  9. Use forward slip as necessary.
  10. If the path is too shallow with power idle, use forward slip before it’s too late.

  11. Clear the brake.
  12. Close throttle, flare, touch down.

10. Lower the nose, maintain directional control, brake.

Use caution for the brake. Since the airspeed is faster than normal, it requires more distance to stop. Don’t lock the tire.

11.Taxi out, clear the runway, stop, after landing check.
