Arrange these events during a landing flare in order:

1. The aeroplane descends into ground effect

2. Downwash at the tailplane reduces

3. The tail download rises and a nose down moment appears

4. The pilot applies additional up elevator

5. The aeroplane flares and touches down

Select the correct sequence.

  • A.1, 3, 2, 4, 5
  • B.1, 2, 4, 3, 5
  • C.1, 2, 3, 4, 5
  • D.2, 1, 3, 4, 5

Answer: C

The additional demand arrives at the moment the surface is least effective, since the aeroplane is also at its lowest speed. That combination is why the flare so often turns out to be the critical case for elevator power.
