Definition
A landing in which the aircraft touches down, comes to a complete stop on the runway, and then takes off again from that same point without taxiing back. Used as a training and currency exercise that combines a full landing, runway rollout, and a standing takeoff in one sequence.
Plain English
You land, brake to a full stop on the runway, and then take off again from where you stopped.
Context Anchor
Used during flight training, especially when practicing landings and takeoffs in the airport traffic pattern.
Why Pilots Care
It lets a student practice both a full landing rollout and a takeoff in one continuous sequence, saving time and runway usage.
Intuition Check
Do not confuse a stop and go landing with a touch-and-go landing. In a stop and go, the aircraft comes to a complete stop before taking off again.
Example Sentence 1
The instructor asked for three stop-and-go landings to satisfy the student's night currency.
Example Sentence 2
After the stop and go landing, the pilot applied full power and departed without clearing the runway.
