Wotan what you getting in a flap about

 

[wotan]

Ever heard of a flapless approach

 

[ColJack]

Ever heard of a flapless approach

that's called crashing isn't it?

flapless would be all well and good but doesn't that mean your air speed is a lot faster on approach as you need to keep the lift up..
I suppose it would be fine if you had a long enough runway to slow down on...

 

[wotan]

A long runway would help, also landing into the wind, as you should do.

 

[RedHerring]

now, if you landed on a conveyor belt that was going the same speed as the plane, but in the opposite direction.......

 

[tim west]

you couldnt land on one as you'd never have taken off in the first place

 

[Infidel]

Going up is the easy part, coming down in safety is the critical part.

Any landing you walk away from is a good one
