If you are ever at Bell, and your instructor softly says "FL" long on the radio, you are about to get one. While "FL" may mean Florida to some, it means forced landing in that part of Texas. Not being the sharpest knife in the drawer, it took me three or four of these before I figured it out. Of course, I didn't let on, so I am always listening for it, and especially prepared on a flat disk departure from spot 1 on lane four at the Bell practice area. The FL that did surprise me was off the elevated platform there, two years ago.
