        5.14.2 NORMAL LANDING

1. Power ................................................................ IDLE

2. Speed ................................................................ Vapp

3. Align with the runway.....................................keep aligned with pedals and control stick

4. At 2-3 meters from ground ...........................first flare gently to reduce the angle of 
                                                                            descent with a slight  reduction of speed

5. Close to the ground .......................................start soft and progressive flare to level-off in 
                                                                            ground effect

6. In ground effect ..............................................with a nose-up attitude continue the flare until 
                                                                            the main wheels touch the ground.

7. To stop the gyroplane ................................ With the main wheels on the ground,
                                                                            gradually move the control stick to the
                                                                            aft limit stop to stop the gyroplane

8 Direction of gyroplane.....................................Use the rudder pedals to control the
                                                                            direction of the gyroplane
