Default RE: question about first plane?

Search for " Sig Kadet Senior " by JDAVIS, 5/25/04. Much discussion on ailerons, flaps, diehedral, weight.

I have practiced with a Real Flight Deluxe Simulator & found I had a tendency to prolong my glides on landing. This led to stalls, bounces, & crashes. It was nice to learn & correct this at a terminal instead of at a flying field. I suspect that each student might be helped in a different way by a sim. Sims are expensive and of limited value, but I think it would be helpful if a club would obtain one (even used from E-Bay) for students to practice during winter months.
