EXCELLENT presentation. Thanks very much. As an airline pilot it is useful to know and review constantly the SOP. Take care and greetings from Mexico City
Hi there, In the real aircraft, how would the plane behave before touchdown? Let's assume we're at 140kts descending 900 ft/min Autothrottle on.Does the plane reduce the descent rate a bit around 50 ft or do we manually decrease the sink rate prior to proper start of the flaring at 30 ft?
Either you will be on an instrument approach or visual, you would try to get a 3 degrees glideslope. It will be around 700ft/min. You would also disconnect the autopilot around 300ft and for the last 30 to 40 ft you would start a gentle flare on the 321 (20 to 30 on the 319/320) then reduce the throttle around 20 to 30 ft then flare (10 to 20 on the 319)
Hi R O, Why would the plane reduce it's rate of descent by itself? The pilot is the one who has to adjust the flare height according to the actual conditions.
I will add that you could do an autolanding, in that case, the aircraft use the Instrument landing system and the radar altimeter, which calculate your altitude from the ground. Then it will flare by itself. When it tell you « retard, retard » do not take it personnally as I do but just decrease the thrust to idle around 10/20ft on the 319/320 and 20/30ft on the 321!
@@MAGApepe if you are descending with a rate of 600 or 700 feet per minute, if you don't flare you won't notice any ground effect. The effect would be negligible.

Muchas gracias Pablo, glad to hear that 🙏, saludos 👍 cordiales ✨ flight safe, happy 2023
Very very practical and informative
Thanks
all ya got to know is,,, never push the nose down on landing,,, hold it up and it lands or if too fast it floats and then do a go around
I know what incident you’re talking about, the one in Macau
