Seems I've sparked some interest! Apparently the 2 stages is ok. My landings are no worse off for it, but again, 3 stages will be used when or if needed. And I have been trained using this config. as well.
As for the fast, low approach - I think I'm too scared for that!
Anyway thanks for the feedback!
Welcome Cricket23, I look forward to reading some write-ups!
I had another lesson today - was planned to be a solo navigation again. The wind was too strong though, so I had a dual lesson doing some instrument flying and using the VOR. Would have liked to get this solo done (so I can move onto landaways!) but can't help the weather! Good to get some instrument work in too.
Next lesson not until next thur. now!! Fingers crossed for good weather.
Merry Christmas everyone, and safe flying!
