HOLD THE NOSE DOWN
There is a lot of talk about torque roll and right rudder but why is the most obvious and critical thing not being talked about....
The MOST IMPORTANT thing to do during a go round especially in a Cirrus is to HOLD THE NOSE DOWN, which didn't happen in this accident. When full power is applied they kick like mules and require significant pressure on the side stick to keep the nose level.... Hold the nose down, fly it straight and level (even if you're only at 10 feet) and rotate once the speed has built up. During a go around, missed approach or baulked landing, HOLD THAT NOSE DOWN FIRST AND FOREMOST. |

See here >> Yes I realise Dan isn't everyone's cup of tea but this IMHO is a good lesson on go arounds... and how to prevent what happened in the incident we are all discussing |
Yes, Dan makes a valid point, but he loses a lot of his credibility for not having his shoulder seatbelt connected & also for two hands on the controls when climbing after his go around...
Just my 2 lire's worth... |
