Really good to see such good progress being made, and well done to those who are receiving their ticket! I am so jealous!

I too was taught the BUMFPICHLLC (with the added P for propeller pitch and C for clearance, also H for hatches and harnesses).

In a wing drop, one of the wings will stall before the other, usually as a result of some unwanted yaw, or the aircraft being flown out of balance - and believe me you will know when you have one! Be careful not to use opposite aileron though, this can make it worse - keep the wheel straight and use opposite rudder - putting the nose down of course to unstall the wings. Great fun.

I have never done stalls in the climb (with power) - I was told that it is dangerous and that the nose attitude is grossly high (it was demonstrated briefly but we never reached a stall)??

Squeak - when you next down?

Thanks all

Lee
