Go-Around/Rejected Landing

The applicant demonstrates understanding of:

• PA.IV.N.K1A stabilized approach, including energy management concepts.
• PA.IV.N.K2Effects of atmospheric conditions, including wind and density altitude, on a go-around or rejected landing.
• PA.IV.N.K3Wind correction techniques on takeoff/departure and approach/landing.

The applicant is able to identify, assess, and mitigate risk associated with:

• PA.IV.N.R1Delayed recognition of the need for a go-around/rejected landing.
• PA.IV.N.R2Delayed performance of a go-around at low altitude.
• PA.IV.N.R3Power application.
• PA.IV.N.R4Configuring the airplane.
• PA.IV.N.R5Collision hazards.
• PA.IV.N.R6Low altitude maneuvering, including stall, spin, or controlled flight into terrain (CFIT).
• PA.IV.N.R7Distractions, task prioritization, loss of situational awareness, or disorientation.
• PA.IV.N.R8Runway incursion.
• PA.IV.N.R9Managing a go-around/rejected landing after accepting a LAHSO clearance.

The applicant exhibits the skill to:

• PA.IV.N.S1Complete the appropriate checklist(s).
• PA.IV.N.S2Make radio calls as appropriate.
• PA.IV.N.S3Make a timely decision to discontinue the approach to landing.
• PA.IV.N.S4Apply takeoff power immediately and transition to climb pitch attitude for VX or VY as appropriate +10/-5 knots.
• PA.IV.N.S5Configure the airplane after a positive rate of climb has been verified or in accordance with airplane manufacturer’s instructions.
• PA.IV.N.S6Maneuver to the side of the runway/landing area when necessary to clear and avoid conflicting traffic.
• PA.IV.N.S7Maintain VY +10/-5 knots to a safe maneuvering altitude.
• PA.IV.N.S8Maintain directional control and proper wind-drift correction throughout the climb.
• PA.IV.N.S9Use runway incursion avoidance procedures, if applicable.
