Barring charted or ATC assigned airspeeds, what guidance is in the AOM for normal flap extension sequence?
The normal flap extension sequence is flaps 5, then flaps 15, then landing flaps.
Note: although the normal flap extension sequence is 15, then landing flaps, momentary selection of flaps 25 is permissible as appropriate.
In cold weather operations, what considerations should be taken after landing in a contaminated runway; or if accumulation of airframe ice is observed with flaps extended?
Flaps should not be retracted to less than flaps 15.
