Default RE: Slotted Flaps and light wing loading

Yep...

One of my flying buddies, Greg Weeks, built a Senior Telemaster, which is a floater of course. I talked him into putting slotted flaps on it, since he wanted to try them on a future, "fancier" model. This airplane will not hardly come down! It's a fantastic touch and go machine, good for a relaxing period of flying at the end of the day.

I like slotted flaps on heavier models for the obvious reasons, but on a light model... Wow.
