*Configuration management is
the key to a successful
precautionary approach
Stress not rotating for takeoff until engine is spooled up.
*Never commit to more drag
unless you are certain to make
the field (i.e., full flaps or
speedbrakes)
B. Straight-in precautionary approach 1.9.3.1.1.1
*In a real emergency, any
runway becomes the "active."
