Sydney (has flaps, will slip with and without them)

My Cheetah has flaps, but the only time I ever use them (or check to see if
they even work) is during my BFR since some instructors want to see you do
flap landings even in aircraft whose flaps don't do that much to stall speed
(2 kts)... I can do some pretty radical slips though -- one wing down all
the way until just right before the flare...
