  1. How does one end up standing on the backs of two belly fliers? Just fly down in a sit perfectly, or climb up from a belly position? Seems like that last couple feet landing could result in a hard landing, burble and all!

  2. My local 7-11 has that same setup for their front gate entry. I always try to step over the beam to confuse the clerks.
    At what height is the beam set to? Is it possible for a person to go over/under the beam, yet still qualify as an acceptable gate entry? Will lines trigger the alarm?

  • One thing I did was once the nose was flaked and between my legs, I kinda stopped and just looked at what I had. Visualized where each line group is, and what exactly I was looking at. Once I had the idea of what was in front of me, the rest just made sense. It's not rocket science, but it seemed overwhelming before I understood what it was I was doing, and what I was trying to do.
    Practice, practice...

  • I'll have to agree with you Mr. David. Hollister does kick ass!
    It was nice to see those old AAW folks and meet even more of the H-town locals. That king-air wastes not time getting up, nor did we gettin down. $18 to 18K works well with my pocketbook.
    I have to admit a first for landing out on Monday. I was surprised how quickly I burned through precious time looking for a good out. Luckily the open fields were plentiful!
