    Subject: Re: TR-4 Flap Actuation Forces
    I have the original Johnson bar with two "notches" (12 - 24 degree) of flaps and they are more than sufficient for the airplane. I normally use the 1st "notch" (12 degrees) of flaps when I turn base and put the 2nd "notch" (24 degrees) on final. I only put in the 2nd "notch" when the runway is easily within reach to get a steeper approach angle and slow the airplane down some more. It makes for touching down at 65Kt fairly easy. Rich told me that if you need it, you can slip the airplane with full flaps as long as you were below 96Kt with no problem. I have done this a few times and the airplane drops like a rock.

    NICE! ICAO 8643 has a photo of my airplane (N819PR) as the example of the KIS4. It also has OC Baker's airplane (N66OC) as the photo example of a KIS2.
