Well, there ya go! Pretty much what I tried to describe. Funny story about spot landings....I was flying near Marana, AZ back in the 70's and heard a spot landing contest going on via the Unicom. So, I called and asked if I could participate. The answer was affirmative, so I carefully did the approach, adjusted power, rate of descent, got an eagle eye on the spot, maintained the line and slope, did some careful adjustments, then landed exactly on the spot with zero forward movement....in my helicopter. gggg They didn't want to give me 1st Place for some reason. So I just continued on the ferry flight to SoCal. We all got a laugh out of it. About 30+years back I was hired to check out a group of M.D.'s in thier club C-195. Good group of pilots and a lot of fun. Great airplane and very capable. Does yours have the Geiss gear or is it rigid? Ol Shy & Bashful |
