Default flaps

order.

There is some logic in this. All the Cessna AFMs I've seen (i.e. for
various flavors of their piston singles) have nice detailed performance
charts showing how much runway you need to land with various combinations
of weight, temperature, elevation, wind, and phase of moon, but the
numbers
always are for full flaps. There is NO data on how much runway you need
without flaps, therefor there is no way you can comply with 91.103 which
requires that you familiarize yourself with the takeoff and landing
distances.


Well, you certainly haven't seen all the Cessnas POHs. Mine has performance
numbers for "SHORT FIELD" only.

Normal landings can be conducted with ANY amount of flaps, per the FLAP
LIMITATIONS section.
