CHAPTER SIX

Once on final approach in a VFR pattern, attempt to position the correct aimpoint at the right

level in the windscreen. Correct airspeed with coordinated nose attitude and power changes.

Figure 6-10 illustrates different aimpoints for the three different flap configurations you will use.

Notice the aimpoint is higher in the windscreen for a landing flap approach and lower for a no-

flap approach. Flying the proper glide path down final will hold the aimpoint steady in the

correct windscreen position all the way down to the flare. Make pitch corrections and power

adjustments for airspeed as necessary. In the absence of a landing flare, the aimpoint would

equal the intended point of landing.
