flaps again

I kind-of feel vindicated that another pilot had the same mild distractions in the pattern, was setting his flaps as always and never noticed at each of three changes that no flaps what-so-ever were being provided. You shouldn't, it really just indicates both of you have a problem. Transitioning from 0 to 30/40 degrees flaps changes the pitch and trim handling on a 150, 152, 172, 177, 182 so much - if you can't sense the difference, you really need to spend a LOT more time with the airplane. Too right! I can't believe he could not feel the difference in the plane as flaps extend. You can also feel vibration and hear the motor in all the SE Cessnas I've flown. Is this another simmer? If not I agree he really needs some quality training. Cheers |
