To the same requirement made a flyby some fields were 20 minutes instead of takeoff, then addressing destination.
Once located the Ea, the pilot saw in her a prepared ground for landing, so He fell for a visual recognition and after considering it was in suitable conditions, decided to make a circuit wide to enter final.
He configured the aircraft for landing 20 degrees of flaps, and joined to end with a speed lower than established in the manual aircraft with the intention of reducing the distance of braking.
