It would not be the best advice to say.. raise the flaps to get more
braking effect, but that is the placard in the Beech Sport/Sundowner/Sierra series. In my '76 Sundowner, it cost me a set of tires before I realized that flap retraction is pretty much mandatory for any decent braking. My plane was missing the "Raise flaps..." placard. It's super easy to lock / drag a wheel with the flaps down. How did it pass the annual every year if a placard was missing? oops.. B |
