Flying bear is quite right, selection of flap has a masive effect and can be used to clear the fence or hangar in the caravan.
Selection of flap to extend the glide is written into most C208 operators ASETPA emergency procedures manual.
There is a reason you need to practice it tho.
Sounds like it was a pretty text book manoeuvre.
Good job Cameron.
