(3) Level flight;
(4) Descent; and
(5) Landing (power on and power off) with the wing flaps extended and retracted.
(b) It must be possible to make a smooth transition from one flight condition to another (including turns and slips) without danger of exceeding the limit load factor, under any probable operating condition.
(c) If marginal conditions exist with regard to required pilot strength, the 'strength of pilots' limits must be shown by quantitative tests. In no case may the limits exceed those prescribed in the following table:
