Hi Doug,
I agree with what you say, but we must remember that people of varying
expertise read these sorts of discussions and its important that we don't
put forward a one size fits all solution. I just enunciated my my efato
procedure and everyone should develop their own. At max wt my Esqual stalls
at about 65kts tas(and I don't want comments about that figure being
wrong-it's right). At 500' I am also in negative flap as it climbs another
100'/min extra, so I have elected that steep turn backs at 90kts are a no
no.
Unfortunately the majority of pilots don't do much emergency training except
for their biennial flight review, maybe the odd simulated power failure into
a paddock(or is it fields in the US?)
In flight power failures maybe don't happen as much as on takeoff so maybe
efato should be practiced more frequently.
I think 2 big gotchas on a turn back are headwinds that become a tailwind on
turning back, and most people do not realize that a turn back requires more
than a 180 degree turn as you have to get back to the runway centre line
then make a turn in the opposite direction to line up.
One pilot I know tracks away from the centre line once over the threshold so
only a 180 is required on a turn back.
I agree with you about the instructor attitudes, but I guess they only do
the minimum required to meet the syllabus. Here in Aus at the moment
instructors are becoming more inexperienced and some clubs have ceased
training due to the airlines aggressive recruiting of experienced
instructors.
I definitely think there is a place for more intense emergency training
once a pilot has got his wings.

fast)

Wayne is right about 3 inch N numbers. However, if you are going to be
going across international borders you will need 12 inch numbers. You can put
them on temporarily for that trip, but since you live in NY, you may want to
fly to Canada on a fairly regular basis and thus use the larger numbers.

It has been a while since I bugged you guys about updating the Frapper Map
with your information, so.
bug, bug, bug, bug, bug, bug, bug, bug, bug, bug, bug, bug, bug, bug, bug,

I guess that's enough bugging..
If you are a Lightning or Esqual owner, or a dealer, please feel free to go
to the following address and update the map with your information so we know
who and where you are.

<http://www.frappr.com/?a=constellation_map&mapid=137439272225>
&mapid=137439272225
One note though. if you add your handle/nickname without your email or
where you are from, I am not going to approve the addition. The reason for
this is to keep out the trolls who only want to link to our map, but have no
interest in us or what we are all about.
Thanks
Jim!
