Touch and Go procedure question

Featured Replies

Hello,When making a touch and go, do 737 aircrews calculate (using charts) Vr and V2 as they would during a normal takeoff from standstill? Would the proper procedure be to set flaps 15 as in a normal go-around procedure, then rotate again at flaps 15 calculated Vr?Thank you.

Hi Good question...I have noticed that when doing touch and gos, it takes a long time for the flaps the retract on the runway, ,resulting in a flaps 15 Vr anyway. Ross

Hi,No need to calculate new speeds during a touch and go landing.This is a proper proceedure but Airlines may vary slightly:-Fly a normal approach a landing-AUTOBRAKES off-Don't ARM the SPEEDBRAKES-After touchdown, select FLAPS 15 (minimize a tailstrike)-Run STABILIZER TRIM to mid range-Ensure SPEEDBRAKES are DOWN-Set THRUST LEVERS to VERTICAL ( to stabilize engines)-Set GO-AROUND THRUST-AT VREF, ROTATE to 15 degree pitch, climb a VREF + 15 to 25 knots-VREF 30 equals at least V2 for FLAPS 15Floyd
