I think essential for pilots to learn and use often. Lots more margin for error on approach, meaning you can err high and really tailor your touchdown. Then even engine failure is just a glider landing. Of course, I flew sailplanes for years ;-)
This is a lot of fun even on flight simulator with a budget VR headset... Probably good thing a relative didnt leave me any money because I know what I would have wasted it on!
I was taught to do ailerons first then rudder because is safer and you avoid to skid unintentionally. I'm interested to know why do you use rudder first?
Interesting... I must say, I've never really thought about it that deeply. My feel for the Sling TSi is that any Rudder input is very quickly noticed, so I can't imagine that when either "Rudder" or "Aileron" input is introduced... the other will not be too far apart from each other. I think you're right though... I think its natuaral to go with Aileron first. Gentlly Gently.
Haha... yes.. Queensland Australia... YHEC. I was told when I started... if you can land here you can land anywhere. The draw back is that, when learning, you are not immersed in "Radio" traffic... which I find now I wish I was much better at managing. Cheers s

Thanks for the video :)
My pleasure!
The good old Viper - such fun to fly ......
Haha... yes... she was great... all I could handle at the start.
Is this not, strictly speaking, a "forward slip, rather than a "side slip"?

Isn’t this a forward slip?

very nice video, but ive notice that runway looks extremelyy narrow - which aerodrome is this?

YSBK will be really good for you. Three Parallel Runways makes for almost every kind of "Traffic" situation.
I'm a little jealous.
