- Typical left traffic landing pattern in the PA-24-250 Comanche for runway 18 at 82J Roscoe Field in Penscola Florida. Being a Saturday night, the nearby naval airstation was closed allowing a bit more flexibility with airspace.
The Comanche lands well with both 2/3rds or full flaps. At Roscoe, I usually use full flaps given the need for a slightly steeper short final over tall pine trees and comfortable, but shorter than 3500' landing distance available. Speed control on final is the key to better landings with less float.
This one turns out well for a Comanche with right main touching 1st given a slight crosswind followed by the nose and left mains with minimal bouncing.
The Garmin 650 Visual Approach is loaded for reference and the CDI just left of the GPS shows the runway centerline. Once inbound on base to final, the vertical CDI also activates on a 3 degree slope.

Takes me back to what might have been. I met my now wife in college Avaition Club back in 1978. We got married on graduation in 1980 and were poor as church mice. Eventually we got into sailing (NY has GREAT lakes) and got up to a 34 ft sailboat after a series of smaller ones. Could have bought a nice small plane for that $127,000 in 1999. But I do wonder if small changes might have gotten us into private pilot pursuits instead.
I spent a long time with boats while my kids were younger and just recently returned to the air
nice landing!
Thanks!
What app is on your phone?
I run Garmin pilot on both my phone and my iPad (the iPad is on my kneeboard). It connects via bluetooth to the Garmin 345 transponder and gets live weather, traffic, attitude reference, and GPS position. I run the 'traffic' screen on my phone set to 6 mile range so that I always have a clean display for showing other nearby aircraft. Traffic is also displayed on the panel GTN 650 and iPad moving maps but I like having a decided display that is always easy to reference. I also run the SkyTimer app on my phone which is the simplest and best fuel tank timer / reminder app I've found.
@@planeplaces Thanks for sharing!
@@timeads2036 If there is interest I plan to do some videos on how I use the avionics and mobile apps during vfr and ifr flights
Did you touch the nosewheel first???? Penalty box for you! I hope your Private CFI didn't see that!
A bit hard to see but the right main touched down first
yeh...this Aviator Knows fighter pilot greaser touchdowns... jus' fine.(no nose high wallowing roun')🤨🇺🇸👏👏
Why do you talk to yourself.
This article states a number of the reasons but fundamentally it’s a technique to maintain focus and reinforce making sure checklist items are done vs only thinking you did them. Every pilot has their own style and some don’t verbalize but it’s always worked well for me. www.flyingmag.com/cfi-wildes-self-talk/
