Cessna 172 Private Pilot Procedures – (N950ME)

SOFT FIELD TAKE OFF 1. Flaps to 10 degrees. 2. Taxi with elevator full aft, keeping rolling if possible. 3. Line up on runway and smoothly apply full power. 4. Hold elevator backpressure to keep nose wheel just off the ground. 5. When main gear leaves the ground, briskly reduce backpressure to hold A/C in ground effect (10’ AGL). 6. Accelerate to 70KIAS, then begin climb out and raise flaps. SHORT FIELD TAKE OFF 1. Line up on runway as close to threshold as possible. 2. Hold elevator with gust lock hole 1” back from collar. 3. Hold brakes and apply full power. Check RPMs over 2300 and engine instruments in the green. 4. Release brakes. Accelerate to 55KIAS, and then firmly raise the pitch to climb and hold 59KIAS. 5. When clear of the obstacle, lower pitch to normal climb. SOFT FIELD LANDING 1. Fly approach and landing as a normal landing. 2. On short final, push Carb Heat off. 3. In the landing flair add a little power to soften the landing. 4. At touch down – POWER OFF, hold full aft elevator. SHORT FIELD LANDING 1. Fly a normal approach with a slightly extended downwind leg. 2. On final, set full flaps and add power to hold 60KIAS. 3. Power off and pitch down as soon as you can glide to the threshold. 4. Immediately after touchdown lower nose gear, apply brakes, retract flaps and pull yoke aft CESSNA 400 APPROACH PROCEDURES PRECISION APPROACH & APPROACH WITH VERTICAL GUIDANCE (WAAS) 1.
