Vocabulary: Takeoff / landing

Flashcards on this page

This page includes a 12-card interactive flashcard deck. Here’s a taste:

• overrun / overshoot (v.) — To go past the end of the runway, usually because of a problem stopping the plane.
• orbit / circle / enter a holding pattern (v.) — To fly in circles close to an airport and wait before landing — often because of weather or traffic.
• line up (v.) — To position the plane on the centreline of the runway, ready for take-off.

Members study all 12 cards — flip, shuffle and star them, and review each one with spaced repetition on the Study dashboard, timed for just before it fades.
