NDB approaches -- what are they good for?

Look at how many pilots fly just fine for years without really
learning to use the rudder or make full stall landings.

Doesn't loss of control on the landing roll account for a
disproportionately large number of accidents, even for Cherokees and
Skyhawks?

When learning to fly a sailplane in Tucson, the instructor commented that the
A10 pilots that came up from Davis Monthan AF thought that the rudder pedals
were welded to the floor. With a sailplane you sure get adverse yaw and need
rudder.

Even in a docile Cherokee or Skyhawk, you still need to use those
rudder pedals in the air during initial climbout and (especially)
during a crosswind landing.


All the best,
