Landing with N-1

Question 1

What’s important when landing with an inoperative engine?

Answer 1

MAke the final approach as smooth as possible to arrive at the threshold without arriving too high

Question 2

How will you achieve this?

Answer 2

Rudder trim in the neutral position
Close throttle on the operating engine to prevent the yawing of the aircraft so that we can maintain the runway centreline

Question 3

Why do we arrive slightly higher than usual?

Answer 3

• To make sure we have secured the fiel, with this we can lower the gear and complete the final checklist
• So that we can descend with less power, therefore flying with less asymmetry, thus making the landing easier

Question 4

What happens if we make a low approach?

Answer 4

We will have to increase throttle, which will produce more yaw

This will make the approach and landing more complex and less safe

Question 5

What do we do during the final leg?

Answer 5

Correct for the asymmetry with the rudder

Bank slightly towards the operating engine

with a crosswind:

Maintain the correction to compensate and keep the airplane lined up with the rwy centreline

Question 6

What’s the speed on short final?

Answer 6

90 KIAS + !GUST

Question 7

What do we do at this point?

Answer 7

Reduce power
Center the pedals smoothly to maintain the axis of the runway

Question 8

What do you do in the event of a crosswind landing?

Answer 8

Continue as with a normal landing and the asymmetric conditoin should be gone or minimized
