One Mile at a Time

The initial impact was 420 feet past the runway 23 threshold. The aircraft came to a rest inverted on runway 15L, approximately 1,800 feet beyond the thresholds, and about 75 feet to the right of the runway edge. degree bank Two seconds before touchdown, the planes bank angle to the right increased, to 5.9

Although he was flying at or near the proper airspeeds for an overhead pattern, he was constantly moving the throttlesfrom near idle to near full thrust within seconds. The final turn in the T-38 is a nose-low, 180-degree turn designed to arrive on final one mile from the threshold at 500 feet AGL. I continued down final.

As I am executing the abnormal engine checklist and reviewing the single-engine procedures, the right engine rpm steadily decreases to below flight idle, and the aircraft is yawing significantly from the differential thrust. The yaw from the asymmetrical thrust was now gone, and the rudder needed to be retrimmed.

The exhaust coming out of aircraft engines looks pretty dangerous, generating huge amounts of thrust and pushing back tons of hot air. This distance is measured when the preceding aircraft is over the runway threshold. What do you think happens to the air when an aircraft flies by? Small landing behind a Heavy 6 miles of separation.

It was also destroying the propellers air foils causing a loss of thrust. We were about 1/2 mile from the threshold. It would not be easy getting perfectly aligned with the runway threshold by looking through the tiny hole in the ice. I had to keep precisely on the localizer centerline to find the runway threshold.

At this point, we reached the threshold of the runway. Spoilers were armed while the reverse thrust was deployed to slow the aircraft. Look at how lovely the weather was that morning. Passing by Air France's corperate office. Air France Concorde on display. An Easyjet A321ceo aircraft was undergoing the deicing procedure. Touched down!

We waited for a while near the threshold to allow a few aircraft ahead of us to take off. Our aircraft touched down smoothly with the spoilers and reverse thrust deployed to slow the aircraft to taxi speed. Reverse thrust and spoilers were deployed. As you can see a few European airlines were behind us. We entered the runway.
