Default How to land on a grass airstrip

The grass strip I regularly fly in and out of is irrigated. Nice smooth
and green in the summer here in no rain Texas.

All,

My goodness, this is great I searched in Google and in my books and I
couldn't find a lot of info on the matter, then I decided to try the
forum and then... bum... 112 posts, I really appreciated all answers,
it makes me think that the subject is not as simple as I though. I have
only 90hours in my log and only 12 hours solo, most of them in a
Diamond katana DV20 and never land in any other surface than asphalt. I
think I'm going to invest in one hour CFI, to get the minimum
knowledge transfer and then try it myself. Thank again for all the
answers.



Enjoy. Nothing like a well maintained grass strip on a warm summer day!

Just be sure to report back here with your experience.


Matt
