Other things to get used to: You don't need airbrakes because the whole
plane is just one huge airbrake. When your approach is too high, just

That works (to a point) in a Cessna. Try that in a Mooney and you'll get
a very close look at the numbers on the far end of the runway as you go
by them. It depends on the airplane.

Don't they put airbrakes on those Moony things, some type of dragons
teeth arrangement?
