4.5.4 Approach
• The landing approach can be carried out in gliding configuration or with engine idling and both tanks
switched on.
• The approach must be set up in such a manner that the runway can be reached without engine power.
• Lower the landing gear on the downwind leg (takes about 30 seconds) and wait for "GREEN" of the check
lights. When the airbrakes are deployed, a horn can be heard and all check lights flash red if the landing
gear has not been lowered.
• Flap position "L" (+16 deg.)
• Approach speed 59 kts / 110 km/h.
Warning: Before landing check parking brake lever to be in OFF position respectively brake lever to be
unlocked. A landing with parking brake set results in uncontrollable braking and in worst case in
a locking of the wheels.
Caution: In turbulent conditions and strong wind approach with flap position +10 deg. or +5 deg. to
warrant better effectiveness of the ailerons. Increase approach speed by 10%.
Warning: In rain increase approach speed by 10 % ! (see chapter 4.5.7).
4.5.5 Landing
• Control glide angle by means of the airbrakes.
• Do not round out too low (high landing gear). Reduce airspeed in horizontal flight to the minimum flying
speed, pull the stick and put down with main landing gear and tail wheel simultaneously.
• Hold stick pulled after ground contact. Leave airbrakes extended. Operate wheel brakes according to
situation. Operate rudder with caution.
After reaching the parking position:
• Parking brake SET (turn lever to ON position and operate brake afterwards)
respectively LOCK brake lever
• avionics switch OFF"
• engine (for cooling down) idle for app. 1 min.
• ignition "OFF"
• electrical fuel pump "OFF"
• engine master switch "OFF"
• master switch "OFF"
• When parking for longer periods on inclined ground use wheel chocks.
