9.11.5 Approach and landing
Approach and especially landing is the most difficult part of the trip and require
your full concentration.
9.11.5.1 Approach
Well before arriving at the arrival airport, you must prepare for your approach,
as there are different arrival procedures. How many and which ones depend on
the airport's classification.
Normally, the landing round takes place at 1000 ft GND, and you follow the same
round as the other aircrafts on their way for landing.
If it is a controlled airport, you call before you reach the control zone and
receive instructions from the air traffic controller on how to proceed,
what the QNH of the airport is, which runway is in use, etc.
If it is an AFIS site, you call up and ask for landing information, and you
provide information to AFIS about your intentions.
If the airfield is unmanned, you still call up to ask if there are other planes
in the landing circuit and to say what you are doing.
9.11.5.2 Holding
In a control zone, you may be asked to wait in a holding position (a specified
holding position) until the air traffic controller gives permission to land
