Thank you for this information! .... One of my biggest pet peeves
are CFIs who actually teach people to slip a 172 with flaps.



???????

Did you read what Cpt Moore posted?


Completely. Depending on the model you will have different flight
characteristics while performing a forward slip. I doubt very
seriously that a typical flight instructor will have an in depth
conversation on models made in '72 and later, vs a straight tail, vs
everything in between (hell many don't even bother to make sure a
student knows the difference between a forward slip and a side slip)
so I would err on the side of caution and advise against teaching
slips as a general rule in 172 / 182s.
