14 CFR Ch. I (1–1–14 Edition) 

§ 25.147 

downward so that the acceleration to 
this selected trim speed is prompt with 

(1) The airplane trimmed at the trim 

speed prescribed in § 25.103(b)(6); 

(2) The landing gear extended; 
(3) The wing flaps (i) retracted and 

(ii) extended; and 

(4) Power (i) off and (ii) at maximum 

continuous power on the engines. 

(b) With the landing gear extended, 

no change in trim control, or exertion 
of more than 50 pounds control force 
(representative of the maximum short 
term force that can be applied readily 
by one hand) may be required for the 
following maneuvers: 

(1) With power off, flaps retracted, 

and the airplane trimmed at 1.3 V

SR1

extend the flaps as rapidly as possible 
while maintaining the airspeed at ap-
proximately 30 percent above the ref-
erence stall speed existing at each in-
stant throughout the maneuver. 

(2) Repeat paragraph (b)(1) except ini-

tially extend the flaps and then retract 
them as rapidly as possible. 

(3) Repeat paragraph (b)(2), except at 

the go-around power or thrust setting. 

(4) With power off, flaps retracted, 

and the airplane trimmed at 1.3 V

SR1

rapidly set go-around power or thrust 
while maintaining the same airspeed. 

(5) Repeat paragraph (b)(4) except 

with flaps extended. 

(6) With power off, flaps extended, 

and the airplane trimmed at 1.3 V

SR1

obtain and maintain airspeeds between 
V

SW

and either 1.6 V

SR1

or V

FE

, which-

ever is lower. 

(c) It must be possible, without ex-

ceptional piloting skill, to prevent loss 
of altitude when complete retraction of 
the high lift devices from any position 
is begun during steady, straight, level 
flight at 1.08 V

SR1

for propeller powered 

airplanes, or 1.13 V

SR1

for turbojet pow-

ered airplanes, with— 

(1) Simultaneous movement of the 

power or thrust controls to the go- 
around power or thrust setting; 

(2) The landing gear extended; and 
(3) The critical combinations of land-

ing weights and altitudes. 

(d) If gated high-lift device control 

positions are provided, paragraph (c) of 
this section applies to retractions of 
the high-lift devices from any position 
from the maximum landing position to 
the first gated position, between gated 

positions, and from the last gated posi-
tion to the fully retracted position. 
The requirements of paragraph (c) of 
this section also apply to retractions 
from each approved landing position to 
the control position(s) associated with 
the high-lift device configuration(s) 
used to establish the go-around proce-
dure(s) from that landing position. In 
addition, the first gated control posi-
tion from the maximum landing posi-
tion must correspond with a configura-
tion of the high-lift devices used to es-
tablish a go-around procedure from a 
landing configuration. Each gated con-
trol position must require a separate 
and distinct motion of the control to 
pass through the gated position and 
must have features to prevent inad-
vertent movement of the control 
through the gated position. It must 
only be possible to make this separate 
and distinct motion once the control 
has reached the gated position.

§ 25.147

Directional and lateral con-

trol. 

(a) 

Directional control; general. It must 

be possible, with the wings level, to 
yaw into the operative engine and to 
safely make a reasonably sudden 
change in heading of up to 15 degrees in 
the direction of the critical inoperative 
engine. This must be shown at 1.3 V

S

R1 

for heading changes up to 15 degrees 
(except that the heading change at 
which the rudder pedal force is 150 
pounds need not be exceeded), and 
with— 

(1) The critical engine inoperative 

and its propeller in the minimum drag 
position; 

(2) The power required for level flight 

at 1.3 

V

S

R1, but not more than max-

imum continuous power; 

(3) The most unfavorable center of 

gravity; 

(4) Landing gear retracted; 
(5) Flaps in the approach position; 

and 

(6) Maximum landing weight.
