Default RE: How to Cool Down Hot Approaches

Slipping, rudder dancing, low pitch props, all add drag but none of them will let an aircraft with a high wing loading land slowly. The problem is not how to get it to slow down but how to get the airplane to fly slowly without stalling. The only solution is less weight, or more wing area.
