That would be awful...! :-)



It is. I flew one of the old pedal-less ones for a couple of days giving a
guy who had rebuilt one and hadn't flown for years a re-intro to flying.
God awful!
there is a brake pedal, though. A stalk type pedal I think it came out of a
'38 DeSoto.
The Pilot's handbook said that to deal with a too high situation on
approach you should pull th estickk full aft and let the rate of descent
increase that way until you were back in the slot..

Yech.

Always liked the look of them though. Could have been worse, it could have
been the Gwinn Air car hat filled that Niche!
