Flying a Standard Spitfire Pattern at SMO. Post any questions here.
What weight setting are you at? What landing speed? What take off speed?

Actually working on an actual tutorial showing speeds, flaps, rudder control, etc. Should have it completed in a couple of days.

Awesome video, but quick question. Why so low on the downwind?

Just showing how I fly a pattern. When no traffic, I fly low. When other traffic, I fly around 1500’ AGL

@Mark_Denton. MaxSez… Well done Mr. Denton. Great Short Final, precise! Little low on the downwind. The “Right Stuff”! Have a Good Peanut your #8 for 2016.

@dush19 I’m working on tutorial that will show all of that. Although, I’ve flown spitfires with you before; it’s going to take a lot more than the HUD view to help you buddy. 😆

LOL Max. Not sure I understand the #peanut but thank you all the same. Love to fly low and fast (not something I get to do in the 172 IRL)!
Yeah that’s what I’m showing in the tutorial I’m working on. Showing the rudder control with winds for the Spitfire.

Nice one man! I tend to prefer the 3-point landing for the Spit.
