| Maintain a wings-level crabbed approach on extended runway centerline. |
CAUTIONPrior to touchdown, smoothly take out the crab with rudder to align the fuselage with the runway AND
simultaneously use aileron to maintain wings-level. |
WARNINGDrift should not be allowed to build due to aligning the fuselage with the runway too early. |
| An early kickout may lead to excessive drift, whereas a late kickout could result in swerve on touchdown due to nose wheel steering inputs. |
| Just prior to touchdown, center the rudders regardless of any crab or lateral drift because of the full time,
low gain NWS that will activate upon weight-on-wheels. |
| Touchdown |
|---|
| Aileron | Into the wind as necessary to counter any wing-up tendency. |
| NWS | As required to track parallel to runway centerline. |
