No flap approach Aero Commander 520.

Twin Commanders are almost always landed with full flaps. I realised I hadn't done a no flap approach in ages, if ever. So I decided to do one, which was a non-event.

Approach speed around 78kts (which is where I fly with flaps as well). As you can see by the red lights on the VASI, the approach is a little shallower than normal - and it would be bad practice to do it this way at night - but I wanted to put her down close to the threshold. Which I didn't really do anyway;)

I agree with avnavcgm. This camera view is fantastic. It's part of the reason why I really enjoy your videos.
