Default Florida Flying Gators Fly-in

I won't be able to be there, but the Seneca pilot did a nice job of
planting it short... Still, 2000 feet is more than enough...

you would be amazed at how many people have tried to drop in but can't seem
to get in.
I watched a Cessna 152 try four times before getting down. I know 2100ft
isn't that long but makes me think more training should be given on short
field landings. Or should I say pilots should practice more at landing
short so if that day ever comes during an emergency landing they can get in
a short field safer.
