Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Re: Remos Nose Gear Collapse

My first instructor had me landing NO Flaps. His thoughts were that many of the planes I could end up flying won't have flaps so learn how to handle that first. He was right, many of the things I fly have none. The Piper Colt, J3, 7AC Champ, Luscomb, Baby Great Lakes, and the time when the Cardinal II flaps wouldn't extend because the switch failed. FWD slip works fine.

Been doing it for 35 years and never had a student (or pilot ) bend one yet. Just when you thought this thread couldn't any longer!
