PROTECTED]: [Aus-soaring] Forward slips?
I imagine that most of us use Wikipedia from time to time - I certainly do.I
was curious to read in its account of the Gimli Glider, that the pilot executed
a "forward slip" to lose height rapidly on approach to his selected "outlanding
site ".Regards,Terry.
The "Gimli Glider" is having another run on Channel 7 in Victoria next
Wednesdaynight at 9.30.
