I agree with what you said regarding exploring the envelope I agree with you, Lowell (and I also agree with Dave! ;-) Here in Norway, we have to do a "periodic" test with an instructor every second year. I did mine a week ago. After a few touch & go on two and three points, I am asked to climb 500 ft on a 360 left turn, then descent 500 ft on a 360 right turn. Easy, if you watch the altimeter and the needle rising 180 degrees for a 360 degrees turn. Then I am asked to do a straight ahead stall. Easy, my Kitfox mushes down beautifully. Then I am asked to do a stall in a turn. As for the previous years, I answer "No, I don't like it. This is how a spin starts!" And my instructor says " ... okay!" ;-) My point is, we all have things we like to do and things we don't. We fly for fun so let's keep it fun.

    Dave, do you have numbers for what your standard T.O. distance is with flaps 0, 10, and 20? -------- Mike Perkins Havana, Illinois Model I, 532, B gearbox, GSC prop Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=402614#402614
