RocketAviator Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 Just goes to show the Good Lord can make things so superior to our knowledge. I'm pensive seems to weak of a descriptive term! 1 Quote

DAVIDWH Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 Reduced power Up trim On slope, then flair with min mp. Rudder aligned with center line. Pretty much a straight forward Mooney approach. Quote

flyboy Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 kind of difficult for us to use our landing gear for a bit of a push to build airspeed! Quote
Awful_Charlie Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 The Beeb have done quite a series of these, although the presenter can be rather annoying, the footage can make up for it. Here's a bit of background: Quote
1964-M20E Posted February 17, 2014 Report Posted February 17, 2014 I've been working on an STC for the Mooney to do that same wing retraction but the FAA is giving me fits with paper work already 25,000 pages long and a 1000 engineering studies. Pretty soon Ill be able to build a Mooney out of paper. Really neat nature is wonderful. Quote

Pretty soon Ill be able to build a Mooney out of paper. Really neat nature is wonderful. I read in avweb that the FAA has moved to SB to remove the flight certificate of all bird wing morphing capabilities, and furthermore all birds will be subject to a sleep apnea study, with no flights until 1500 hours of experience is proved in writing and mailed by usps to Kansas.

DAVIDWH Posted February 17, 2014 Report Posted February 17, 2014 USPS to Kansas? I'm confused, I have been mailing all my sleep apnea studies to the FAA in Oklahoma city. It's getting harder to keep this govt. bureaucracy straight. My physician for 10 years, (Specialist in internal medicine) has just given up on practice and taken a salaried hospital position. Said enough was enough. I guess every profession is having its woes. Unfortunately, I am not seeing the light. Quote
