Flight Operations Briefing Notes Approach Techniques Aircraft Energy Management during Approach
I
Introduction
Inability to assess or manage the aircraft energy level during the approach often is cited as a causal factor in unstabilized approaches. Either a deficit of energy (being low and/or slow) or an excess of energy (being high and/or fast) may result in approach-and-landing accidents, such as: • • • • • • Loss of control; Landing short; Hard landing; Tail strike; Runway excursion; and/or, Runway overrun.
This Flight Operations Briefing Note provides background information and operational guidelines for a better understanding of: • Energy management during intermediate approach: − • How fast can you fly down to the FAF or outer marker?
Energy management during final approach: − Hazards associated with flying on the backside of the power curve (as defined by Figure 2). Refer also to the Flight Operations Briefing Note Factors Affecting the Final Approach Speed (VAPP).
