I am learning to fly a Blanik L-23 and my instructor is telling me to
"fly it on" with no flare. 1) I am commercial/instrument rated with somewhere north of 1000 ASEL and a few ASES landings in my logbook. I am _programmed_ to flare. :-) To not flare is very hard for me. 2) The Blanik AFM refers to flaring on landing. 3) The instructor is very concerned about the fragility of the tail wheel, so possibly this is the reason for his technique. So ... to flare or not? When solo, I mean. BTW, this is pretty neat stuff. I wish my first few hours of training had been in a glider. Certainly I would have learned to use the rudder much sooner! |
