Everyone
Well since it has come up again Ill throw my whatever in. I was
always taught to control my landing speed on final. It doesnt matter if its
a real plane or not. Its the skill of the pilot.
So Im coming into land. Hopefully some 30-20 sec before a Max. I set
myself up with my plane under contol. Airspeed management is the key. Think
ahead. If I do it correctly I will land my sailplane in the center of the
spot. This is why I practice. If it is wet out I land shorter to let my
plane slide. Airspeed Airspeed. I think the skill of the pilot should
determine the landing. Not the Skeg. I think in Canada they do not allow
them. I could be wrong.
This is a good conversation that will get old fast. I choose to not
use a skeg and hope my landing skills are good.
