U.S. NAVY PRIMARY FLIGHT TRAINING FILM HOW TO LAND A PLANE 53734

This 1945 nonclassified US Navy training film, “Primary Flight Training Landings,” opens with a naval lieutenant (mark 00:30) reviewing a “power off” landing accompanied by filmed footage of the procedure. Aided by illustrations (mark 02:45), the narrator continues his explanation of stalled landings — comparing the movements of a Stearman biplane to that of a bird. Wind direction as it relates to landings is addressed beginning near mark 03:15, followed by standard landing procedures (mark 05:00) and a warning against “ballooning” (mark 05:40) which could cause a plane to gain lift. “The ideal landing is the landing you make out of a glide,” explains the narrator at mark 07:38, and as it continues the viewer sees potential pitfalls of landing outside a wind line including being thrown about a field upon landing (mark 08:00). The narrator’s explanation continues with an explanation of a pilot being able to “feel” a landing (mark 10:43) and the importance of a pilot honing all their senses to successfully execute a landing
