I was giving the readers the rules for practicing the stunt. In the
learning to turns arround a point at 30 feet, the altimeter is
mandatory. It is the means to prevent the wing from hitting the
ground.
Wholeheartedly agree, Douglas!
I simply cannot fathom why CFIs drill that "keep your eyes outside" mantra
into their students with such frequency. That altimeter is much more
accurate than eyeballs. Especially at 30 feet.
Good job.
I have the Eaglson Landing named after me by the way.
gasp That's YOU? Get outta here!
It is stolen
from the animal Perigrin falcon that lands accelerated always. A nice
nose wheel landing with the quick elevator yank to stall on, and never
bounce!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please share more of your wisdom with us, Doug. I am sure I speak for all
of us here when I say that we can learn much from your experience.
