Hi all, At the Lockhaven convention 1991, I took several people for rides, among them Bob Sanders. He had not flown in a Coupe in quite some time but soon became relaxed and took over the controls for a few minutes..
People on the ground were complimenting me on the nice landings. They said that all three wheels hit at the same time. I thought that was strange. I really didn't do anything different from my usual landings. I wrote about it in my convention coverage for Coupe Capers . Later, I noticed that my snubber cable had come loose. The nose gear had fully extended without my knowledge and looked to them like a 3 point landing because of the extension. I hope no one really thought I was advocating it. I land like everyone else, mains first. Just something to think about if you don't use the snubber cable. Bill Coons
