A CFI I had lunch with last week suggested I should always do full stop taxi
backs instead of touch and goes when practicing landings. I've frequently done touch and goes for about an hour when I wanted to do some quick flying, but I tried his suggestion. I also ran into an old AOPA Flight Training magazine that had an article suggesting full stop taxi backs instead of touch and goes. I generally keep the pattern in tight and can do ten touch and goes in about .8 or .9 Hobbs depending on the amount of other traffic. I prefer towered airports for this practice, because there is another set of eyes looking for aircraft. Should I force myself to always do full stop taxi backs, even thought other pilots and tower personnel seem to prefer that I do touch and goes? Kevin Dunlevy |
