Since neither has anything to do with ground effect, why would that be a
problem?


To coin a phrase:

"Good grief"

You all may not like my patented "eyes-covered screaming flat-spin
three-point landing" but I assure you it would be a show-stopper. The
Blue
Angels don't even do it.

Man, that would be cool, using a modified C152.
Do a 180 over the numbers, with lots of rudder
and convert the A/C into an effective Canard,
and land backwards.
That sounds like a super idea!
Then go to throttle as a reverse thruster.


Too easy unless it's on an aircraft carrier, but that's also too easy
because the arresting cables catch the nosewheel. Of course, if you time it
right, when the nose gear rips off it can get yanked through the prop. But
since I don't have permission to land on carriers and you apparently have, I
guess you'll get a wikipedia page before I do.

Well sims are fun, I was running low on fuel
near Hawaii heading North, in an SR-71.
At 80,000 feet, I set KIAS to 649 with descent,
((that's not secret anymore, right)).

I practically glided into Alaska, (Elwsworth?) on
fumes.
Ken

PS: Dear Officer, the reason I was speeding was to
get to the gas station before I ran out of gas.
(works every time)....

Dan, man to man, I get the impression you're afraid
of landings, where as myself, that's what I live for.
Sure some is sim's, but I managed to land an F104
on a Carrier deck, to prove it's possible, do you know
why? Cuz it could save a pilots life!

Did you chop power landing or land power on?
Big John


When I land something like a Cessna (in reality) I use
minimum power so the prop is acting as a break.

In the F104 sim, I crashed and burned about 10 times.
IIRC, I set-up slowest speed on final, (possibly with
airspeed brakes) then, near the deck, flared, cut power,
and squealed the tires. I think the sim allowed a 2g
vertical strike on the gear. It was quite a rush
- even tho it was a sim - when I finally landed it ok.

Do you do sims to?
Ken



************************************************** ************

Last first.

Yep. Flew the Link Trainer. Did you ever fly one?

On question.

If you chop power before your rolling you are going to crash. Been
there. Seen that.

Do you know the minimum ejection altitude with the original downward
seat??

Do you wear your spurs when flying your hot sim?

Big John
