DHamblin Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: "Flaps...." 06-06-02, 16:34z  Dave Hamblin (formerly DaveH on old site!) Ok, my carb ice didn't stir up a lot of controvercy, so lets try another. For those whose plane has flaps (or if you have had one with flaps for all the Pitts/Extra/Sukhoi drivers), how do you handle them on landings? Do you drop a bit at a time on downwind,base, final, all at once or ?? As importantly, why?? I have settled on 10 on downwind, 20 on base, 30 on final and if needed (or for fun) 40 on short final. Thats on our C150H. Just curious what others do and why. Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
