18. Landings Per Stage. The following is the recommended
minimum number of landings per stage, with corresponding
recommended average landings per sortie. A flight should not be
incomplete if a student does not meet the recommended average
landings per sortie for a given event. Commanding Officers are
authorized to schedule warm-up flights in order to meet
recommended stage minimums, if student performance so warrants.
However, students are required to have 99 landings minimum prior
to FCLP-03X and 240 landings minimum prior to CQ-03. Landings
are defined as full flap/slat, left-hand pattern (FCLP type).
