Love it. U can also set the markers for: Transition to stall | Speed / AoA for lowest sink | Speed / AoA for best glide. It woks fine...no matter what the wing loading is. Also works during winch launches. U can also use it a indicator for correct flap setting. For exampple: You're gliding to the next cloud. Your sidestring is lower than the marker for best glide > you're flying with the wrong flap setting and u have to hit the next gear (negative). You're cruising like a dolphin and your sidestring is above min sink adjust your flaps positive and youll find the string between min. sink and best glide again.
That's a great idea! A piece of yarn is still the most reliable aviation instrument made.
Til it rains! 🤫 LoL
