I fly my own plane the same way that I flew rental planes. Every so often, Rick and I would try to do some basic maneuvers such as slow flight, steep turns, stalls, soft and short field landings. We have the tires and brakes replaced about every 250 or so hours. I have no ideas how much money we would have saved if we had 'babied' our plane. IMHO, being proficient at short field landings may save my skin someday and no amount of money is worth my life. Hai Longworth Couldn't have said it better myself.
