Most sensible thing posted yet:

don't listen to crap posted here
And here's a good reason why:

full flap descending flight on the back end of the drag curve with minimal power
WTF, Fish, do you always fly your approaches on the back side of the drag curve? With an Aft CofG??

Why????????

"Minimal power" to achieve the above full-flap/back of drag curve in your lighty is actually going to a fair bit of available power. An increase to full-power for your go-around won't add that much more.

Or did you mean LOW power? This obviously is unachievable.

Anyone who advocates flying approaches well behind the drag curve in a low-powered lighty to low-experience sprogs might very well find himself in...

a special place in hell








PS: Are you saying you're an ex Army pilot?
