Because, unless you're offering an open invitation for me to fly your
glider, I've flown a number that don't give such clear signs,
particularly in landing flap.
Fair point. Assuming you are current and can cope with wood, you are
welcome to fly the Pirat!
And can you imagine what would happen with a stall warning sounder?
Pilots used to flying with gear-down warnings would anxiously check he
undercarriage lever ... subconsciously pulling back to give themselves
a bit more time ...
Did I say anything about a sounder?
Did I say you did? There has, though, been plenty of discussion of
stall warning devices here in the past.
