This Section only applies to airplanes with a maximum landing
%
mass less than the maximum flight mass. All landings with
%
a current flight mass not exceeding the maximum permissible
%
landing mass constitutes a normal operating procedure. Refer

APPROACH.
The maximum landing mass given in Chapter 2 is the highest
mass for landing conditions at the maximum descent velocity.
This velocity was used in the strength calculations to
determine the landing gear loads during a particularly hard
landing.
Perform landing approach and landing according to Chapter 4A, but maintain an increased
airspeed during landing approach.
