The variables of final approach speed Vs. = brake wear, runway length etc will be with aviators until all of us are long pushing daisies.

Pilots take all sorts of pride in matters = such as “low approach speeds” “use less runway” “less brake = wear” and so on.

Each owner of a Lancair can choose whatever = he or she wants to do in ops within the regs, but for my two bob’s worth, = the margins some of us build in to ensure no unexpected sink out anywhere in = the circuit, and using runways suitable for the type of aircraft, makes a = lot of sense.
