Neat experience today.

Jjs,

I'll go first... not me.


Me neither.

79 P28RT201T. count me in the positive stiction category. I brought the
topic up in rec.aviation.owners before and many people replied that they had
similar problems and similar remedies to what is seen here.

Often when flying Pipers I know slowly "pump" the controls during the
flare. One of the aviation columnists recently wrote about using this
technique and the advantages of it. I never needed it much in my 182 as
I could gradually pull back the wheel in it. The Arrow isn't nearly as
smooth and a low amplitude, high frequency "pumping" of the wheel tends
to allow smoother arrivals at closer to stall speed.

Okay, survey time. We have a lot of Piper pilots on the newsgroups. How
many of you find it necessary to "pump the yoke"to get a smooth low speed
landing? I'll go first... not me. Is something wrong with my airplane or
just every other Piper in the world?

So you pump the yoke on every landing?

No, I guess I misread the question. I have the stiction problem, but do not
pump the yoke.
