- floating: i actually had more problems floating in the 172 than the
warrior, go figure.
Me, too.
As my CFI used to say:
"If you float, you've got too much airspeed. Fix it."
A C172 with one person and partial fuel, landed at "book" speeds
instead of weight-adjusted speeds, will float.
Ditto for a Warrior IME
If you really want to see float, try landing a Grumman w/ "5 knots
for Grandma and 5 knots 'cuz I was nervous and I think more speed
is safer" tacked on.
Cheers,
Sydney
