Question 1

During a fixed pedal setting approach address airspeed to ___ knots or above until final. Once established on final decelerate to ___ KIAS +___/-___ while maintaining less than ___ FPM rate of descent. If the nose is ___ of the ground track ___ the approach. If the nose is ____, then ____ approach, arrive over the ___ of the landing area approximately ___ AGL ___. If the nose is to the left, maintain altitude with the collective while ___ forward speed until the aircraft is ___ with the landing area. If the nose yields to the ___ past the center line apply ____. Collective application will decelerate the right yaw.

5. Airspeed -
6. Landing -
If the nose direction changes from left to right at airspeed, higher than 40 knots:
5. Airspeed -
6. Approach -
7. Autorotation -
