If you wrote the glider tune, you should get an award of some kind.
It epitomizies all the suffering of those who are forced to fly crap or are talked into buying an "Elmira" utility sled. Simply acknowledging the existance of these poor creatures gives hope that the possibility of advancement does exist. "If not for those on the bottom, not I see the top" R |

I fly a LS-3A, and I noticed early on that you must have 20 degrees
flap to have full spoiler. I played with spoiler flap combination on my first flight and noticed that it is possible to release the flaps from the detent while deploying spoiler and go to negative flap by accident. I usually just leave the flap in 20 degrees for landing. It is possible to use less flap while landing, but you must make sure to keep the spoiler handle as vertical as possible if you go to full spoiler and then reduce the amount of spoiler. I use the back of my hand to keep the flap in the notch I select. It is a weird system as the spoiler driver slides inside the flap driver, so if you cannot have any spoiler with full negative flap. Also, as you deploy the spoiler the flap moves to the positive positions. I find 20 degree flap is a lot of drag and you don't need a lot of spoiler. I've tried landing with 10 degrees flap and it is possible to go to full spoiler and back to 10 degree flap, but you must pay attention to the flap handle position. Just leave it in 20 degrees for landing and come in high. Ed Gaddy |
