Climbing over GS

[Remington]

Is there any time it is permissible to climb over the glideslope on landing flare? Thanx!!!

You should maintain GS until 50 above TDZ. You should touchdown within the TDZ. Or, the first third of the runway.

 

[thunderworm]

if the first part of the runway is unusable. or to dodge the unknowing cow.

Is it permissible to go full scale on the LOC during landign flare.... So CA's I used to fly with liked to play the Green Tip game... You try to see which pilot can get their respective wingtip greener by touching it to the grass!!!

I challenged the Capt I flew with yesterday and he got kinda ticked and called my a psychpath or something... I just want to be like Bob Hoover.



(I am kidding by the way... no I dont have a deathwish!!)

No disrespect but who the he!! is looking at the GS during the flare. Unless you are CAT IIIb I would hope you would be looking outside.

Someone please prove me wrong but I would assume that the FAR/AIM does not have a regulation covering this. At some point in your career you are just going to have to fly the plane with some common sense.

maybe i've spent too much time on here, but i think the original post was making fun of the thread 'dipping below gs' which is about 105 pages long

God I hope so

I think it is permissable provided you are not low on ball bearings.

I am loving the sarcasm Remington...The sad part is that this thread will probably end up being as stupid as the one you are spoofing.

Don't forget here though that if you are low on ball bearings, you can always get back to basics with some 3-in-1 Oil and some gauze pads. Don't do the readers the disservice of claiming "It's all ball bearings these days". Keep it simple!

Don't forget the anti-freeze. Preferrably Prestone. Those sphetzer valves are a biotch. Wheeeech!

*chuckle*... good one.

 

[Quimby]

is this similar to when it's OK to land to on either side of the centerline?

Sweetie, good advice!

No, make that Quaker State.

Here is how you should be manhandling that bad-boy glideslope needle during your approaches!

Yeah, but that doesn't address the issue of being above the GS. They were on slope both times they crossed the threshold.

I say it's ok to peg the GS full down as long as it's a temporary condition. The GS MAY get full deflection at some point in the approach as long as you immediately peg it in the other direction to average it out.

Aren't "S-turns" along the localizer one of the maneuvers you have to perform for your commercial license? TC

I can't wait to try that one. Any special brief for the tube-rats or passengers?

When you're in a 29000# turbo-prop, 5 miles in trail of a heavy.. not that that ever happens
