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

About Flaps. . .  IT depends upon the airplane. . . Piper A-6  I ALWAYS use 10 degrees of flaps. . . It keeps the nose up. 10 degrees of flaps increases the lift, decreases the stall speed, but doesn't affect the airspeed that much.  The lift cancels out the drag.  In the Cherokee 180, I use 10 degrees of flaps, or 20. In the Cessna 150, I use NO flaps, or 10 degrees.   I prefer no flaps. In gusty situations, or windy situations, I ALWAYS use 10 degrees of flaps, no more, no less.                Dwayne
