It was just a misconception I had until later in my training. I think
it was probably because there are significant differences in the
procedures (holding nose off vs, keep nose on the ground as much as
possible), they're tested separately in the PTS, and I didn't really
have a good practice strip for short/soft fields. My Instructor (aka my
Dad) did a good job explaining the need to combine techniques, I just
didn't get it until later on.


any-one want to give out the speed/time formulae as to finding the
length of the grass strip -before- you land on it...


60Mph = about 90fps

1.5 X Mph = Fps

100mph = 150fps
10 second pass = 1500 feet
20 second pass = 3000 '

Thank you kind sir
