Interesting facts for PPL holders

Hi,

Though I would start a thread where we could all post a useful fact for Students/PPL holders:

I'll begin with....


If for some strange reason you forget the landing speed of your aircraft, you can work it by the following method. Do a stall in the landing configuration and take note of the speed at which your aircraft stalls, then multiply this speed by 1.3 and it will give you an approximate landing speed. For example, an aircraft stalls at 54KT, therefore multiple this by 1.3 and you get 70KT as your VAT (speed at threshold)

Your turn...
