Low Energy Awareness Theory
Topic Description
Our Low Energy Awareness topic reviews the potential hazards associated with a balked landing or go-around while the aircraft is configured in a low-energy landing regime. The low energy regime and balked landing are contrasted with energy management in the wind shear and CFIT escape maneuvers. The aircraft certification process is explained as well, rounding the topic up into a short but comprehensive lesson.
