If you allow your altitude to drop , then gravity speeds you up and that ends up more important than if you accepted the steering loss and pitched up to fight gravity . This is more noticeable at low TWR . A couple things about thisFirst , landing isn ' t ever going to be exactly a time reversal of takeoff because of how fuel flows over time . In a landing you are losing fuel as you approach the body , in take off you ' re losing fuel as you move away from the body . Another way to see this is you could have a TWR below 1 up until the end of a landing , but you have to have a TWR of 1 or above at every point after a launchdiscounting staging of courseSecondly , and more importantly , if you were to follow a ' pure retrograde ' style landing from an idealized constant altitude landing position , i . e . at 0 altitude skimming the surface , you ' d crash , because you wouldn ' t have enough vertical thrust to offset gravity . To follow a pure retrograde landing you have to have altitude to give , which is more lossy than taking the steering loss and fighting the bit of gravity to maintain zero altitude change , as it turns out .
