Nice to see that some instructors are interested in the flying aspect. BEagle - I wonder if that is the same school that teach circuits in a Katana that go outside the ATZ by two miles to 'get the aspect of a 737 approach', thereby p.....g every body off including the tower.

the classic quote I heard today was from someone who said that were having trouble landing the Cherokee six. The problem being it wont stay on the ground. I said fly the accurate VAT speed from the book. the response was 'I don't need the book, I have tried all speeds, nothing seems to work'.

MAXX, you are right. A couple of hrs spent just flying the aeroplane pays huge dividends.

ps Is anyone interested in a discussion on use (or mostly misuse of the rudder)
