Brakes. (press briefly to check for pressure) Oh, and Master On, Mags Both. It never hurts to be sure. The full 152/172 landing checklist, as I've learned it: Master On Mags Both Carb Heat On Mix Rich Fuel Switch On (or to Both in the 172) Brakes Land... You land with the carb heat ON? Well I've got about five seconds on you... I do a BUMPS while downwind: Brakes, Undercarriage (who cares if it's fixed or not, this is good practice, and the club has a C172-RG (kinda need it then)), Mixture/Mags/Primer pump and tanks both, Pitch fine (ok, still good practice ![]() Before pulling the throttle at the end of downwind it's carb heat on. Turning final, carb heat back off. (Any probs in the land, or even after landing that might necessitate a go round, I'm ready for full throttle - no messing around with the carb heat). -- Duncan |
