wrote in message ps.com... As a segue from off airport landings....how about precision? Can you consistently touch down at minimum speed with your regular aircraft within a 50' mark? Can you do it with a short/soft/XW/ Obstacle? Can you do it with any configuration of flaps and or power? And in addition to this type of landing without power, how about when you have power, but have to make a rapid reaction to change you spot at the last moment. What comes to mind, is at OSH on 9/27, when at the last moment the controller (or other circumstances) calls for a change to touch down one dot early or one dot later that what he said at first, and now you are feet from the ground, trying to make it work. As a spectator at OSH, it seems like some people are totally unprepared for precision spot landings, and some practice would be in order. Good idea for a thread. -- Jim in NC |
