oups.com... I just feel more comfortable landing uphill. Perhaps its because on approach you have a bigger target to hit! One of the problems with landing downhill is that as you are flaring, the ground is also dropping out from underneath you and as such, your flare ends up taking longer... I remember once landing on a downhill runway and it seemed to take so long to touch down after I flared that I was starting to wonder if I would *ever* land... Landing at an unfamiliar airport at night with a downhill runway is also an interesting experience the first time it happens to you... |
