Speed on approach??
A while back, rented a Piper TriPacer from an Annapolis, Maryland airport, and was being checked out by the owner.....
Some of you may know Annapolis is the home of the United States Naval Academy. Gung ho guys, flying onto aircraft carriers, that sort of stuff.
Anyway the Piper TriPacer is sort of a fat Supercub with 4 seats - some have tailwheel, some nose wheel. I forget where the small wheel was in this case.
But flying on short approach into wind, our ground speed was probably about 30 mph. Certainly we had been consistently overtaken by cars on the ground.....
Suddenly (no rear view mirror in the TriPacer) we were overtaken by a very annoyed Navy flier in a light plane, who was planning to do a short landing at the small airport. Where did he come from?!
I hate to say it, but there was a certain amount of satisfaction felt by the two of us in the TriPacer when the Navy pilot landed and his undercarriage collapsed! We overflew the wreckage and decided to return to home base as it seemed the Navy light plane might take some time to clear the runway....
