Robert,
I like your idea.
I’ve long thought that one of the
first things a person should do when using a different plane is to get up
safely high and test minimum flying speed / stall speed. Because of CG,
aircraft variations and airspeed indicator errors, it’s bound to be
somewhat different in each plane. I want to know that number.
During that process, it’d be good to
determine the slowest-trim-speed to be sure it’s what I’d want in
an emergency.
In my own plane, it’d be nice to
adjust the trim tab (if allowed) so the slow-trim equals best range glide
speed.
