A circular approach was used to lose altitude during the landing phase.

The approach and landing phase could be controlled by the autopilot, but was usually hand flown.

It stabilises the module during the descent and landing phases.

This significantly reduces the margin for error during the takeoff and landing phases.

The training provides the skills needed to complete flights without visual reference to the ground, except for the takeoff and landing phases.

This glide simulated the final approach and landing phases of such a vehicle returning from orbit.

He is barely able to operate the engine power levers (throttles) during final landing phase.

During the entire landing phase, the vehicle acts autonomously, based on pre-loaded software and parameters.

However Russian scientists hope to make the biggest impact on the landing phase of the 2016 ExoMars mission.

Wake turbulence is especially hazardous in the region behind an aircraft in the takeoff or landing phases of flight.

The division operated armoured vehicles modified for specialist roles, intended to assist with the landing phase of the operation.

"The subsequent ground contact or impact landing phase must be achieved using a safe, aesthetic and well- executed double foot landing."

The best that they could do was vague images garnered during the landing phase that noted built-up areas and heavy defenses.

Numerous flight tests were performed throughout the mission to document Shuttle performance during launch, boost, orbit, atmospheric entry and landing phases.

In aviation, autoland describes a system that fully automates the landing phase of an aircraft's flight, with the human crew supervising the process.

In gliding, wind gradient affects the takeoff and landing phases of flight of a glider.

Neptune: the landing phase of Operation Overlord (June 1944)

Aliye İl, a surviving passenger, told that during the landing phase the aircraft crashed with a very loud noise and broke up in pieces.

Flight is described in three stages: dive flight, glide flight, and ascent flight or landing phase.

Typhoon "Shirley" greatly hampered the landing phase of the operation, but it was finally completed despite torrential rains, floods, washed out roads, and dense fog.

Other research indicates that losses unquestionably affected the build-up for Operation Neptune, the actual landing phase of the invasion of Europe.

Rather, I suspect that with shorter legs the angle of attack in a three-point altitude would be insufficient, resulting in a 'hot ship' in the landing phase.

Autopilots in modern complex aircraft are three-axis and generally divide a flight into taxi, takeoff, ascent, cruise (level flight), descent, approach, and landing phases.

UHF links, relayed through Mars orbiters during the entry, descent and landing phase and while operating on the surface of Mars.

After that, the user goes through the Preflight, Liftoff, Ascent, On Orbit, Deorbit, Approach and Landing phases.
