"Bob Clough" wrote in message news:0FSjd.13$w.4@trnddc02... I'm still a student pilot so can't add any value to the IFR discussions, but I am curious about the concerns around wake turbulence from a departing aircraft on the runway you are about to land on. I thought wake turbulence could only happen when significant lift, ie enough lift to get the plane in the air, is being generated. Therefore, as a landing aircraft, you wouldn't experience wake turbulence from a departing aircraft until you roll down the runway past the point of the other plane's rotation. By then you're solidly on the ground. Right? So does a landing aircraft really have to worry about wake turbulence from a departing aircraft? Bob Clough And that reason was why he was in too much of a hurry to get on the ground, by chopping the power and forcing it down. -- Jim in NC --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
