Default RE: The Art of ZEN Flying

Ah yes the voice commands! Especially for the deadstick landings when we call for more altitude in one breath then as we overshoot the landing area yell to get down already all the time knowing that just a little down ele. would do the trick. I said a little. Only a little. Yet we hold staedy or even feed in some up before the plane has bled off enough airspeed and now we have a plane headed to the next county! We need brakes! Pulling hard back on the transmitter like we were setting a hook in a fish.

Heh! I don't feel so terribly bad. I watch the kids gyrate all over the place playing with the video games. They are as bad or worse than we are.
