Drag flap

I confess to no knowledge of AA5; However my approach is a simple one effective for all types;

(NOTE - I.M.H.O in panic sitations anything complicated or too detailed just doesn't work but I am a basic type Human MK 1 & not PERFECT BY ANY STRETCH OF THE IMAGINATION)

Here tis'

1) Apply full power IMMEDIATELY

2) Retract drag flap IMMEDIATELY - BUT NOT LIFT FLAP

3) Pray for effective R.O.C

4) Thank god for power of prayer ref' Item 3 !

5) In the event of items 1,2 & 3 non-effectivness tighten belts & brace for impact !

Take care folks - tis' better to be a pilot of extreme skills & knowledge & even better to not be in a situation requiring use of such extreme skills & knowledge in the first place - if at all possible.
