Slow flight and Slips to Landing - Video
A Lieberma wrote:
While my non precision approaches are always circle to land, wouldn't dive and drive work more effectively even for straight in LOC approaches? I descend700 feet per minute and "drive it" to the MAP. I think I've been misunderstood. I don't do either slips or d&d before the MAP. I descend 1000 FPM @ 90 knots, leveling before the MAP. That's 1700 RPM w/ 1 notch in my Sundowner, don't have it nailed yet in the 182. 90 knots all the way, controlling descent with throttle, no dive and drive. I'm talking once you are at the MAP, doing 90 knots, a slip can be handy. Never had the need to slip (at least at my own airport) since I am at MDA well before MAP. Same here... |
