Off airport 182, two bridge gravel bar.

Another fun gravel bar in Washington, this is the biggest sized rocks I feel comfortable landing on.

Wonderful flying!

What flaps do you use for takeoff? I thought Cessnas use 0-10 degrees, looks like you have 20 or more in there.

Those are just the type of rocks that punch holes in the bottom of my Maule. :roll:

Sprtsman and Horton call for 20 degrees for soft fields. I pretty much always use 20 in the 180.
Great video!

Thanks,30 degrees for take off, that amount gives the best performance with the Sportsman STOL kit.
Landing 40 degrees.
