Thank you for the helpful comments following my post.
Bearing in mind the hilarious "Pilots Only Forum" thread that has been running thse last few days, you reminding me of the excellent reasons why we should all be able to post together.
As the difference between the "correctly flapped" and unflapped landing speeds is probably nearly the entire clean stall speed of my steed (circa 50 kts), then runway length is obviously far more critical.
I guess from a piloting perspecive, assuming you can find a strip long enough, the landing isn't any more taxing though ????
