Subject: Zenith701801-List: Re: Slats
The answer to the question about how to land a 701 with slats or with no slats
and VG's with no power is. One just has to be close enough to the runway,
pattern altitude (1000 feet above runway) and turn base quite quickly.I do a
military numbers to final (a steady 180). Of course keep the nose down enough to
maintain flying airspeed, I keep it about 60mph. Don't try to flair from very
high as it will slow very quickly and drop in. I takes some guts to not flair
too soon as it has to maintain flying speed to near touch down. Don't mush it in
as there will not be enough speed, inertia, to do a flair.
One thing I have never mentioned before is that the angle of attack in level
flight at 10000 feet is much less with vg's then with slats. I have no idea why.
