4.3 Flapless landing (if suitable conditions) • consider weather and wind conditions, water- surface and obstructions • plan and follow a suitable pattern and orientation with the landing area • establish the recommended approach configuration adjusting speed and rate of descent to maintain a stabilized approach • achieve the selected touchdown area at the recommended speed • adjust descent and roundout (flare) to achieve a safe landing with little or no float with appropriate drift and crosswind correction depending on the water-surface condition • maintain directional control and wind-correction after touchdown complete all necessary checks and drills RMK: Higher than normal touchdown-speeds may overstress a heavy airplane in rough water. 4.4 Crosswind landing (if suitable conditions) • consider weather and wind conditions, water- surface and obstructions • plan and follow a suitable pattern and orientation with the landing area • establish the recommended approach configuration adjusting speed and rate of descent to maintain a stabilised approach • achieve the selected touchdown area at the recommended speed • adjust descent and roundout (flare) to achieve a safe landing with little or no float with appropriate drift and crosswind correction depending on the water-surface condition • maintain directional control and wind-correction after touchdown • complete all necessary checks and drills
