Why do planes almost land and go back up?

In aviation, a go-around is an aborted landing of an aircraft that is on final approach or has already touched down. A go-around can either be initiated by the pilot flying or requested by air traffic control for various reasons, such as an unstabilized approach or an obstruction on the runway.

What is a touch and go airplane?

In aviation, a touch-and-go landing (TGL) or circuit is a maneuver that is common when learning to fly a fixed-wing aircraft. It involves landing on a runway and taking off again without coming to a full stop. Usually the pilot then circles the airport in a defined pattern known as a circuit and repeats the maneuver.

Where is the most turbulence on a plane?

Most often, turbulence is located on poleward side of cyclonic jet stream. Conversely, turbulence is often located on equatorward side of the anticyclonic jet stream.

How often does a plane engine fail?

Safety statistics suggest that less than one in every one million flights will have an engine failure or forced engine shutdown in the air or on the ground. This works out at approximately 25 such failures a year across commercial aviation.

Why do planes climb 2000 degrees after takeoff?

If an aircraft is cleared to “after takeoff climb and maintain 2000” then he wont need all of this power. Additionally, the aircraft isn’t fighting drag from gear/flaps at this point, nor friction on the ground. And it is no longer a race to get off the runway.

What causes an airplane to stall after takeoff?

If it does not reach the necessary stallspeed, the stall occurs. Shortly after take-off, an aircraft needs considerable thrust in order to simultaneously increase its speed and gain altitude.

Why do planes have to throttle up before landing?

The pilot must throttle up for that. Noise abatement procedures also affect this as well. When at a non-busy airport ATC may clear the plane higher before he levels off, in which case the climb will be continuous.

Why does the pilot push down the nose of the airplane?

He needs to push down the nose of the airplane to reduce the angle of attack. In this way he avoids the vortices and can ensure lift. If he does not do this and the aircraft gets steeper and steeper in the air, a dangerous stall occurs, starting roughly at an angle of attack of 18-20 degrees.
