Bounced Landing Flashcards
What is a bounced landing?
When both main gears contact the ground, then leave the ground prior to landing.
What is the recovery for a bounced landing?
Hold / re-establish the normal landing attitude.
Add a little thrust to control rate of descent.
DO NOT CLOSE THRUST LEVERS TO IDLE -> COULD RESULT IN SPEEDBRAKES DEPLOYING
Why should thrust levers not be reduced to idle?
Will deploy speedbrakes.
Effect of deploying speedbrakes will be pitch up motion, lift lost, leading to a hard landing or tail strike.
What are the actions if speedbrake deploys during a bounced landing?
Execute a go around.
Do not save the landing.
What are the actions for a balked landing?
Advance thrust levers to go around thrust.
Verify speedbrakes are retracted.
Maintain landing flaps config, rotate to 15º pitch attitude, no less than VREF.
Once airborne, execute normal go-around procedure.
What is the effect of selecting go-around flaps during a balked landing?
- Decrease in lift, resulting in increased takeoff distance.
- However, if it is a long runway and sufficient distance exists to complete with the go-around flap setting, can select it.
