Come down off your high horse sonny. No where in the airplane is there
a placard that states "prohibited" about anything. Doesn't say anything
about "unauthorized" either. I don't have the POH here in front of me
at the time, but as I recall it does say something about slips and flaps
during landing, but at 4,000' AGL, we wern't anywhere near landing.


Depends on which year 172it is. I was looking at Info Manuals a while
back concerning the slips with flaps stuff and found 2 years (66 and 67
I think it was) that do Prohibit slips with flaps. The year prior and
the years after do not prohibit slips -- which is odd since there are no
big changes to the airframe (the extended dorsal came along in '73).

There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing
as simply messing around with airplanes.
