How do you land a Boeing 737?

Answer 1

In Basic :

Decent to the runway is set at about 800 feet per minute. The engines are brought back to allow the plane to start to descend, the flaps are increased to make the wing surfaces larger to maintain lift, speeds of about 140 knots to the ground will be required, undercarriage is down and the planes then increases drag and continues to slow and descend. Pilots landing using visual references uses PAPPI lights on the side of the runway. when on glide scope (the line to the runway) the PAPPIs illuminate 4 lights - 2 will look red and 2 white. if the plane is to low the lights all look red if to high they all look white as the plane passes over the threshold (runways start) the engines are cut and the plane continues down. Just before the rear when hit the ground the pilot flares the plane, lifting the nose so that the weight is taken by the rear wheels first
