Scotty,
The leading edge of your flaps should just be touching the
trailing edge of your wing. It looks to me, in the photo, like you have
about 60 degrees of flap set.
For the last year I have limited my
flap usage to about 35° and have less problems than with 45° of flap
setting. I believe that your flap setting in degrees is way to
high. -- Lorn H. 'Feathers' Olsen, MAA, DynaComm, Corp.
Lorn,
Yes, that is the full flap down position and I only use it for
preflight and boarding passengers. I, too, only use about 35 degrees of flaps
for landing due to the stick force required to maintain my pitch attitutde.
Thank you.
