Cirrus SR20 and SR22 Flight Operations Manual
Section 3 Standard Operating Procedures
Go-Around
A go around should be executed anytime an approach does not meet
the stabilized approach criteria outlined in this manual for instrument
or visual conditions. A go around should be completed from memory
since it is a time critical maneuver.
In addition to the stabilized approach criteria, execute a go around/
missed approach for these conditions:
• Excessive ballooning during round out or flare,
• Excessive bouncing or porpoising,
• Landing beyond 1st third of the runway,
• Any condition when a safe landing is in question.
The first priority of executing a go around is to stop the aircraft’s
descent. Smoothly and promptly apply full power while simultaneously
leveling the wings and pitching the aircraft to stop the descent.
Maintain coordination while adding power by applying rudder
pressure. Retract the flaps to 50%. Do not fully retract the flaps at this
point in the go around because it may lead to excessive altitude loss.
Begin pitching for a climb attitude once the aircraft's descent rate has
been stopped. Pitch for V
X
if obstacle clearance is an issue. Pitch for
V
Y
for all other situations. Retract flaps to 0% once the aircraft is
climbing, and clear of obstacles, and at 80kts (SR20), 85kts (SR22)
