1 Fatal ...r.a.h or r.a.p?
"Richard Riley" wrote in message oups.com... There's a difference between a glider with a 30:1 L/D and a Cessna with 9:1. Doing a 180 in a glider from 400' is like doing it in a Cessna from 1200'. Richard, Richard, Richard ... A normal poweroff landing is a 180 back to the field from 800 feet. Cessnas make them quite handily all of the time! :-) Highflyer Highflight Aviation Services Pinckneyville Airport ( PJY )
