- link to previous progress check flight: [[Mario Hernandez Commercial EOC Flight Recheck]] # Short Field Takeoff - good job # Short Field Landing ## Attempt 1 (KORL) - reasonable aiming point selection given conditions - airspeed approximately 67/69 knots short final - this caused you to go past touchdown point - ==**CORRECT DECISION TO GO AROUND :)**== ## Attempt 2 (KORL) - shifted aiming point back because expected greater float - airspeed approximately 61/62 knots on final - float was shorter because of slower airspeed - was not going to make point, ==**CORRECT DECISION TO GO AROUND :)**== ## Attempt 3 (KORL) - made point - good job # Power off 180 - good job # Eights on Pylons - wider circle for first turn which caused you to turn late into second turn # Emergency Descent - good job # Emergency Approach and Landing - 2,400 feet and 02FA 2.9 miles away with winds favoring making it to field - quick math -> maximum glide 1.5 x altitude (in thousands of feet) = glide distance (nm) - $2.4 \times 1.5 = 3.6$ - chose field on west shore of lake apopka that would not be a good option for landing when (even not going to 02FA) there were better options on the north shore # Systems and Equipment Malfunctions - good job
