Hi Jeff,
I am guessing that you followed the
advice of Anker Berg-Sonne of CRRC. He wrote up his suggestions
along with video images at:
Dick
All the negative stuff that gets posted where (some deserved Roy!) I thought
I post a positive I learned right here.
To the person who posted a few weeks ago, or months, whatever, about changing
to my left foot for the pedal since I launch right handed. THANK FRIGGIN
YOU!!!! I think he was with the CRRC.
For me winching launching was a frightening experience every single time.
When launching with my right foot I'd stumble backwards or otherwise lose
balance 50% of the time. I approached winching each time with trepidation. I
switch to standing sideways with my left shoe on the pedal and tossing the
plane almost over my head as it pulls. It works GREAT!
Knock on wood, now launching is no big deal. I just have to work on throwing
it straight ahead (I tend to toss it to the left - sometimes WAY to the
left). Really I don't recall your name, but thanks. That article was a
revelation and shows again, sometimes the net is worth is weight in gold. :)
Best wishes,
=====
