Q

Stabilized Approach Criteria

A
  • final landing configuration
  • all briefings & checklists complete
  • descent angle & rate are appropriate for type of approach being flown (all available landing aids ILS,VASI,PAPI, etc must be used)
  • vertical and lateral displacement from normal approach path is in accordance with CFM tolerances
  • sink rate no greater than 1000 FPM and if an approach requires greater, a special briefing shall be conducted
  • airspeed Vapp or target with a variance no greater than +10 and no less than -5 kts. momentary and minor deviations are only tolerated if immediate corrections are made
  • as airplane crosses runway threshold it should be on target airspeed within +5 kts and positioned to make a normal landing
