oooh, Beagle.
Are you going to bite?
"your training"....was very much point and power if I am not mistaken.
and you flew delightful aircraft with a little more poke than a PA28.
but now you train civvies....as a CFI.
I would guess you have a little more experience than Steve.
Heston has wisely left the thread - poor as it is.
but that is the beauty of Pprune - you have the ability to contribute and make it better.
PACE and I were trying to bring a little lightheartedness to the thread.
Now I do recall flying a JP5 a while ago with a F3 instructor, and I stated to him that when the throttle on said JP5 was closed, it would initially pitch up and climb for a few hundred feet. so we went for a flight to prove it....
back to Steve ....
Steve. if you fly these aircraft, you know the answer already. you don't need to be told.
PACE - no potential energy on board the plane unless perhaps there is also an explosive device on board. Wonder what one of those might be to give you a bit of height?
Ah, yes. That black and yellow thing between your legs.....
