On final approach to SIN. We touched down firmly on the ground with the reverse thrust deployed to slow the aircraft down. After the engines were started up, we taxied to runway 15 for departure. Another view of KUL airport during take off. At this point of time, we started our descent not long after. We parked at terminal 3.

Anyway, for the rest of the flight, the approach and landing was a smooth affair. We were on final approach into runway 06L. Spoilers were armed while the reverse thrust was deployed to slow the aircraft. The Captain gave us a good update before departure and landing so that's great. Flying over some hilly areas.

At this point we were on approach into Milan, the pilots were probably doing the landing checklist at this point. Our aircraft touched down smoothly with the spoilers and reverse thrust deployed to slow the aircraft to taxi speed. On final approach into Singapore Changi Airport. Reverse thrust and spoilers were deployed.

An aircraft go-around is when a pilot decides to abort a landing and climb back to a safe altitude for another approach. Whether it’s due to runway obstacles, unstable approaches, or weather changes, the aircraft go-around is a pilot’s best tool to avoid accidents and ensure a smooth, safe flight every time.

It took quite a while before we were finally out of the clouds and by then we were on final approach into Taipei Taoyuan Airport. We touched down smoothly but had to endure an unusually loud thrust reversal as our aircraft slowed down to taxi speed. At this point, we were on final approach into Taipei Taoyuan Airport.

Danger lurks in circling approaches Air Facts Journal the circling approach maneuver is designed as a last resort, non-precision approach. The very first question that should pop up into our head during a circling approach is “Why are we circling in the first place”? The n ext one is “What are our other options?”

As we neared the Hawaiian Islands, approach control kept asking all the various heavies converging on Honolulu to divert to Maui, Hilo or Kauai. On our initial contact with Honolulu approach, we were told that we would be intercepted by Hawaiian Air National Guard F-15s and be inspected before being allowed to proceed to HNL.

While waiting for everyone to be settled down, one of the crew approach me and asked if I was willing to move to the emergency row, but it was a middle seat. After flying through the clouds, we were greeted by the gloomy looking weather but it was a smooth approach and landing to runway 27 of Mumbai airport. Almost there!

Reverse thrusts were deployed and our aircraft slowed down to taxi speed. Once we were released from our holding pattern, we were given instructions to prepare for arrival.

More air molecules in engine cylinders allow the engine to produce more power; more air molecules moving across the propellor blades and wings means more efficient thrust and lift. The approach and taxi are time compressed; the landing is normal speed. As altitude increases, air molecules spread out, resulting in less power and lift.

We were on final approach onto runway 02L, greeted by the familar sighting of the Eastern part of Singapore. Reverse thrust was deployed (only on the 2nd and 3rd engine) to slow the aircraft down to taxi speed. I am certainly a fan of these type of this view. At this point, we started our descent into Changi Airport.

The aircraft touched down about 100 feet (30 meters) short of the runway, causing the rear radome to strike the ground and the main landing gear to hit the approach lighting system. The incident occurred while the crew was conducting a low-visibility approach through dense fog. The mishap led to the crew ejecting from the aircraft.

Haynes took the controls and, noting the same control issues, reduced thrust on the number one engine, which resulted in the aircraft rolling out in a wings-level attitude, giving the crew critical time to evaluate the dire situation Flight 232 was facing.

Glide control and approach management are life-saving without engine thrust. When your aircraft loses thrust, youll have to glide it safely to the ground using only aerodynamic control.

One of them informed us about the weather and possible thunderstorm at Delhi Airport and he mentioned about the smooth ride when they flew in from Delhi so we could be expecting smooth ride during cruising but possible turbulence when we approach Delhi. Before I know it, we were on our final approach.
