speed and altitude without raising the nose too high to see. (One notch of flaps in our Pathfinder keeps things right where they need to be.) Funny you should mention that, but last weekend I was in the scenic pattern at Niagara Falls and there were two Cessnas there as well. To make sure I didn't run them down or lose sight of them, I also had to slow the Lance right down to 90 knots and I discovered 1 notch of flaps lowers the nose enough to see planes at my altitude. Unfortunately being at 90 knots means I can't do the extreme cross control maneuvers I often do to get the wing down so my passengers can see, so I ended up flying a bit wider than the depicted track. -- Paul Tomblin http://blog.xcski.com/ It could have been raining flaming bulldozers, and those idiots would have been standing out there smoking, going 'hey, look at that John Deere burn!' -- Texan AMD security guard |
