Q

Stable approach Criteria?

A

The airplane should be stabilised at 1000 ft HAA if in IMC and non-normal
conditions, and no lower than 500 ft HAA if in VMC conditions. A approach on
the EMB120 is considered stabilised when all of the following criteria are met:
– The airplane is on the correct flight path,
– Only small changes in heading and pitch are required to maintain the
correct flight path,
– Fly ILS approaches within one dot of the glideslope and localizer,
– The airplane approach speed is VREF + Wind Correction, not exceeding
VREF +20 kt and not less than VREF,
– The airplane is in the correct landing configuration,
– Sink rate is no greater than 1000 ft/min; if an approach requires a sink
rate greater than 1000 ft/min, conduct a special briefing,
– Power setting is appropriated for the airplane configuration,
– All briefings and checklists have been conducted.
