Landing speeds

[hharney]

While looking for my Horton Stol info I came across this Robertson Brochure. Remember the Robertson had the flapperons so the numbers are a little better than the Horton.

I was trying to attach the brochure but it won't work???? Tried PDF and JPG no attachment

I fly my Horton equipped 337 across the fence at about 85 MPH indicated, Full flaps, and trimmed up all the way (remember that full flaps allows more trim than 1/3 or 1/2 flaps so be sure to trim after you have applied the full flaps)

This usually brings the flare in around 80 MPH and wheels squeak at about 70 - 75 MPH. My stall horn squeaks at about 75 MPH so I normally hear the chirp as I make a normal landing.

I fly a TwinCo also and it just amazes me how difficult it is to squeak one on with that machine compared to the 337 which I can kiss the pavement almost 99.99% of the time.

On the Horton brochure it indicates that the approach speed of the 337 was 60 MPH IAS.
