Default Student practices landing with gear up

I have a hard time getting below 100 without putting the gear
down.


I, also.

I know Bonanza pilots who are deathly afraid to ever get below
100 unless their wheels are inches from the ground.


We've discussed this before, but you may recall the previous owner of my
aircraft had a cow when I was flying him a few years ago and the stall
warning horn chirped as the wheels touched. He is one of those pilots who
has to land fast.

I enjoy the challenge of landing the Bo in the shortest distance possible,
so I don't have a problem crossing the fence at 60kts.
