I had some time last weekend to go play in the wind up the river.
It was blowing maybe 18-20 mph so slowed me down quite a bit. Most of my landings were consistently 20′ or less, I did have a couple 10-12′ landings which is way more fun than it should be. It took me an hour to get comfortable in the wind, I figured if I don’t practice I’ll never learn. Learning how to fly this Superstol has been a ton of fun!
I wasn’t getting on the brakes hard but did use them some. It was ridiculous how much fun it was stopping this short. It takes a bit getting used to a ground speed this slow.
