- sink rate no greater than 1000fpm unless briefed
- ILS or IAN within 1-dot vertical and lateral deviation
- NON ILS: On VNAV glide path (VTK +/- 75 ft)
- 1/2 lateral RNP
- within 1 dot LOC/VOR

Landing

  • If airspeed is below Vref over threshold - GO AROUND
  • if airspeed is excessive when approaching flare - GO AROUND
  • landing gear straddling the runway centerline. If all main landing gear are on one side of the centerline - GO AROUND
