sseeker Posted September 19, 2010 Posted September 19, 2010 Don't let the SKC conditions fool you! Today was pretty bumpy (not over the top) with winds varying @ 12kts gusting to 20kts. I went in 5kts faster which I think is the main reason for the bounce, that and the additional burst of power I gave it. 19/09/2010 - Took a friend for a short local flight to Calingiri, was pretty bumpy but nothing serious. Aircraft is the Jabiru J160D. http://www.recreationalflying.com/forum/vbtube_show.php?do=tube&tubeid=487&name=%5Bhd%5D-j160d-bindoon-calingiri
sseeker Posted September 20, 2010 Author Posted September 20, 2010 Hi BlackRod, I was a bit fast & was high on my approach. I took it in a bit faster because of the gusting and varying winds and I kinda cut in on final hoping the x-wind would help me but of course it was straight down the runway at that stage and then changed into a slight x-wind from the North on late final.
