Yup, PPRuNe. It's all sweetness and light here - honest!
Yeah, there is "the other side" too, but, like the eccentric aunt, we just smile and nod!
I was taught to forget flaps during the touch and go. 20 degrees on base, carb cold on final. 300' on upwind, flaps up.
Though if you practice to do it wrong, that it what you'll learn to do. One day you will shoot off the end of the runway, and as you wonder what just happened, it'll come to you, you flew the way you trained, and forgot the flaps.....
We'll talk "Configuration Assurance" shortly.....
