Short Field Landing
For a short field landing in smooth air conditions, make an approach at
75 KIAS with full flaps using enough power to control the glide path
(slightly higher approach speeds should be used under turbulent air
conditions). After all approach obstacles are cleared, progressively
reduce power and maintain the approach speed by lowering the nose
of the airplane. Touchdown should be made power-off and on the main
wheels first. Immediately after touchdown, lower the nose wheel and
apply braking as required. For maximum brake effectiveness, retract
the flaps, hold the control yoke full back, and apply maximum brake
pressure without skidding.
Crosswind Landing
Normal crosswind landings are made with full flaps. Avoid prolonged
slips. After touchdown, hold a straight course with rudder and brakes
as required.
The maximum allowable crosswind velocity is dependent upon pilot
capability as well as aircraft limitations. Operation in direct crosswinds
of 21 knots has been demonstrated.

Balked Landing/Go-Around

In a balked landing (go-around) climb, disengage autopilot, apply full
power, then reduce the flap setting to 50%. If obstacles must be
cleared during the go-around, climb at the best angle of climb with
50% flaps. After clearing any obstacles, retract the flaps and
accelerate to the normal flaps-up climb speed.
