Okay let’s compare that to maybe a Cessna 172s. If you look at the final.
Can you land at a slower speed with full flaps?
Touching down with full flaps gives you the lowest stalling speed. It also gives you an additional benefit: maximum drag so you will decelerate as rapidly as possible with the power off, getting you down through that red zone of poor control, rapidly.
When should you land with full flaps?
Use full flaps for landing, except in crosswinds But full flaps can also cause directional control problems on landing in a crosswind. That’s why most manufacturers recommend “partial or no flaps” for crosswind landings.
What speed does a Cessna stall?

Can you take off without flaps?
Yes take-off without flaps is possible. The Airbus A300 and Boeing 767 are approved for such take-offs and it is being done regularly. It results in a better climb gradient, especially with one engine out.
Why would you land without flaps?
A no-flaps landing may be the answer in conditions of strong or gusty winds, when the slightly higher airspeeds you fly improve control responsiveness. And unless your aircraft has manual flaps, a real-world electrical failure could leave you without flaps.
What is the best airspeed to pitch for?
The airspeed you want to pitch for is best glide speed. No matter what aircraft you fly, best glide speed is usually published in the aircraft POH, and it’s the best airspeed to start with as you’re setting up for a power off landing.
What is the best approach speed for a short field landing?
For a short-field landing in smooth conditions, make the power-off approach at 60 KIAS with full flaps. (Slightly higher approach speeds should be used under turbulent conditions.)” For normal landings on longer runways, final approach should be flown at 70-80 knots without flaps, or 60-70 knots with full flaps.
What we see is what we get in airspeed?
In flight we generally take a “what we see is what we get” approach to airspeed – that is, when flying the airplane according to manufacturers’ recommended operating speeds, or when complying with airspeed margins on a practical test, we go with what we see on the airspeed indicator.
What are the advantages of flaps in aviation?
Use of Flaps. Flap extension during landings provides several advantages by: • Producing greater lift and permitting lower landing speed. • Producing greater drag, permitting a steep descent angle without airspeed increase.
