Gene Whitt, an instructor of mine, taught this to his students and
documented it on his web site (copied below), at
http://www.whittsflying.com/web/page5.61Cessna_150.htm#Trim%20and%20the%20
C-150
"Side Notes:
Pilots do not usually have the best-glide numbers available. A short cut
is just to trim the aircraft full nose-up without flaps..."
It is true for some other Cessna models as well, but you may wish to try
it in your model before you need to rely on it.

The plane settled into a very nice glide at exactly 60 KIAS (best glide
for the 152).

I've got a Ram mount/cradle for a Samsung Q1 Ultra Premium and a 12V power
supply for the same which also supplies power to an XM receiver and
Bluetooth GPS. The specs for the power supply are the following:
Input: 6A/14V or 3A/28V
Output: 19.5V for Samsung tablet, 9.5V for XM, 5.5V for GPS. Cables
provided for the modern XM (rectangular black) receiver. Need to find the
cable (mini USB) for the GPS.
If anyone can use either of these items let me know. Just pay the shipping.
Best,
Jamey

Hmm, I'll have to give this a try in my C-182. I learned to fly in C-150's
in the 70's by what I considered to be knowlegable old-timers, and flew mo
st of the Cessna single line from C-120s to C-206's, but don't think I have
ever heard this. And thinking about it, this might be easy to achieve in
a C-150, as the CG range is rather narrow with only 1 row of seats, but wou
ld not work the same in a C-172 or larger as the CG range is so much wider.
My "P" model 182 has a very wide CG range.

The 172 I did my instrument training in would land itself if you maintained
this setting through ground effect to touchdown. Smoothest landings I ever
achieved.

As a recently certificated pilot, I'm surprised this little "nugget of know

craft?
