This configuration provides the necessary power for both climb and cruise, while also offering valuable training for managing asymmetric thrust in the event of an engine-out situation. Review current weather conditions, including wind speed, direction, and visibility, as these can significantly impact the approach.

The pilots fought to recover, but the wind shear was too strong. Key Takeaways Microbursts can cause severe wind shear and downdrafts. It is the most severe type of wind shear. Theyre a form of low-level wind shear, which is a rapid shift in wind speed or direction near the ground.

This ensures the aircraft gains enough thrust to climb away from the runway safely. Weather Conditions: Sudden changes in weather, such as wind shear, gusts, or rapidly decreasing visibility, can make landing unsafe. Retract flaps to the go-around setting per POH, then raise remaining flaps as climb speed is stabilized.
