Default Landing Advice...

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..
