Once, while waiting in a take-off to go down the wind, some pilots were wondering about what would be the best technique to quickly lower the sail when we landed strong wind and no play us a arrastrón, of course.
emerged there all kinds of techniques, some I would say that to pilgrims. Some claimed that it was best to use bands "B", other than "C". It was also suggested that once on the ground could cause a frontal collapse by pulling the center lines of "A". Another technique was targeted, only to pull a brake on top, turn quickly to the wing hit the ground and flipped. To accelerate this shift in slow candles, made sure it was best, not even cause a collapse, pull the band "A" plane used hand brake. But what everyone was using the technique descartábamos usual, turning and put both brakes.
As I had time and we did not reach any conclusions, we decided to ask one of the experienced pilots who were at launch. If I remember correctly, he said, the best technique was to put bands "B". And he argued that putting the "C" would generate a lot of lift and drag us to rise or fall before sailing. And if they chose to generate a folded pulling the "A" could be reopened at once and drag as well. That conversation
completely forgotten until a few days ago, reviewing the videos stored on the PC hard drive, I found that I present on this occasion. Are a number of landings wind between 35 and 40 km / h. and used different techniques. From the traditional, turn around and run like mad toward the candle until it falls. To generate a "helicopter" to a meter above the ground so that the pilot and given the candle fall over.
sure we can make a great game to decide the best technique for landing in strong winds.
As usual here are the coordinates (40 50 42, -3 June 1938) to see the area on Google Earth.
