Scott, That raises a question for me. Flap limiting speed is 100 knots right? So in the pattern with takeoff flaps (10 degrees or so), have you had any issues with flap extension above 100 knots? I know I've occasionally slipped above 100 knots when I've pushed the nose down and I'm deploying the flaps. So I know it won't break, but I'm just curious if you've seen any problems since that is your standard approach. Thanks, Matt McManus LNC2 360
