Is there a Vietnam Veterans Courier Pilots group?
That's a source of information you might tap into.
Does JAARS offer Courier pilot training courses?
No and no. It isn't really a training issueanway. Anybody can see what
needs to be done (land slower) and how to do it, it is just a matter of
getting comfortable and proficient at the low speed end of the envelope. It
is the same as bush pilots in AK flying final at 1.1Vso plus or minus one
knot. It just takes a lot of time and practice to get to that level of
precision and you have to approach the limits slowly since a being a few
knots fast or slow could result in a crash.. The fact that there are a lot
of crashes in these types of operations demonstrates this.
