Cherokee 235 vs Trinidad vs Comanche

Look, I'm just a sweet, innocent, little thing and didn't have any idea
you boys would look at it this way (why I thought you were any different
from ...., oh well).

Speaking for my fellow airmen, we're sorry.

No, really!

*snorf*

Okay, we're *not* sorry. But we now feel properly...chastened...
:-)

Anyway, as I was trying to say... The closer the
pilot is to the yoke while trying to flare more perceived strength is
needed to bring the yoke to an aft position as it is easier to bring the
arm from fully extended to a 90 degree angle than from 90 degrees to
closer in.

Yep, Mary has the same problem. When you have the seat all the way up,
there just isn't a lot of room for flaring, and this problem was
accentuated in the 182, for some reason. Dunno if it was the
ergonomics of the seat-to-pedals-to-yoke position, or what, but it was
different enough from the Piper seating position to cause her trouble.

As I stated, she might have eventually gotten used to it, but why pay
$80K for something you have to get "used to"?

I actually quit teaching this year. Now I'm just a sweet, innocent,
docent program manager at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center, National Air
and Space Museum. I guess I could still use the teacher line as I'm in
the education department and my license is still good.
