NORMAL PROCEDURES
a smooth touchdown. Gradually bring the stick back,
keeping it back throughout the landing roll. Maintain
directional control with rudder and differential braking, as
necessary.
It is possible to settle the aircraft on the ground at higher
speeds in a two-point configuration. The landing flare is
kept flat, aiming to place the main landing gear wheels on
the runway at a minimum sink rate. When the wheels
contact the ground, the stick must be moved forward to
counteract the pitching up reaction of the aircraft. After
the aircraft has slowed down, the tail may be brought
down with the stick. Bear in mind that the rudder will
begin to lose effectiveness as airspeed is reduced.
Maintain directional control. Apply brakes as necessary.
4.4.3.6.2 Crosswind Landing
When established on a short final approach, use the
ailerons and rudder to maintain the approach path. Lower
the upwind wing using ailerons and use the rudder to
hold runway alignment. At approximately 10 feet AGL,
increase the pitch attitude to flare. Ensure that the aircraft
is not drifting sideways when touching down. When a
satisfactory touchdown has been accomplished, reduce
the throttle to IDLE and adjust ailerons slightly to allow
the downwind main wheel to touch down.
Maintain the stick deflected into the wind as necessary to
keep the upwind wing from lifting, and use rudder and
differential braking, as necessary, to maintain directional
control. Once the three wheels are on the ground, move
the stick all the way back and keep it there at all times
during the landing roll. Apply brakes only as required to
maintain directional control, slow to taxi speed or stop.
