I grew up in the Chicago area and have lived on the Gulf Coast, in
Norfolk, Washington DC and Okinawa. I know what hot is, and I'm
delighted to consider 90 in this area as headline-making.


Hmmm...I spent 6 months flying P-3s out of Naha, Okinawa...were
you in the Navy/Marines?

Please understand that I am a geezer, and getting crotchety in my old age.

I have Summit Aviation's CD-ROM that includes just about every piece of
paper issued by the FAA...regulations, AIM, PTS, ACs, etc etc etc. I have
searched this resource for two words: flair and flair. My Webster's Ninth

Bob, flair and flair look the same to me. :-) I do believe that most
times I flare with flair, but that is just my opinion.

Not a problem, I flare with savoir-faire. And panache. Lots of panache.

I used to flare with panache, but the syrup got all over the place.

It sounds as if you were waffling about landing.

I share your annoyance at such boo-boos, but I can't resist asking if
you're bedridden, or perhaps you mean "declining" years. ((:-))

Probably as ancient as you, I "decline" to do a number of things I
used to do. And now I can get away with it!

I always fear loosing an engine during the flair.

If you loose your engine during your flair, just pull back harder on
your yolk, or you will pancake your landing gear!
