Wing down during final approach.

[Chuck Ellsworth]

O.K. gang this was a good discussion for quite a while but I see we are back to insults again.

So I'm out of this because nowhere have I said side slipping is not a useful method of correcting for drift during an approach and landing.

I did say that I personally do not use a side slip way out on the final approach because for me it serves no useful purpose.

To bad these conversations have to degenerate into insults to make a point.

But hey....I have another idea....those of you who feel some of us are just ego driven with no interest in constructive conversations are free to take this thread and make it more professional.

I left Avcanada because most every thread ends up with bitter comments regardless of the original intent of the person who started the thread.

Maybe the internet with its comfort zone of anonymity is not the place for me because I have this flaw of not being afraid to communicate using my real name.
