Landing airplanes
Sorry to get in on this late.
I was hanging out at the flying club Sunday after a flight, discussing commercial certificates with one of the instructors. The only retract the club has is a Turbo Arrow, with the high T-tail. He was describing how challenging it is to do a nice soft or short field approach and landing in this a/c, and how little elevator authority you have in the flare. Any comments or experiences with this plane? Mike

Piper used off the shelf parts when they built their
T-tailed airplanes, the surfaces are just a little under-sized.
