flaps
"Matt Whiting" wrote: The Arrow I now fly which has a 3-blade prop is much worse than my 182 in the glide ratio department. I can barely make a 180 power-off landing with it. You have to turn base as soon as you cut power abeam the landing spot or you'll never make it! As a CFI giving me a checkout in an Arrow put it: "You can cut the power and glide a Cessna in, but a Piper comes down like dropped car keys." -- Dan T-182T at BFM
