I sort of agree with Bose.
The PA28 dakota I use has an approach speed of 77 kts. I always add the 1/2 gust factor and usually have no issues.
However the other day sure as hell as Bose describes the ebb I ended up to fast when trying to stop on a short and narrow runway, which resulted in some hefty breaking and lots of rudder pedal work.
Bose I beleive you know the aircraft and the group as the other 3 memebers are on the PPL/IR committe.
