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.
Cheers,
Michel

Dave, do you have numbers for what your standard T.O. distance is with flaps 0,
10, and 20?
