I like the use ground effect quite a bit, free performance is always good to have, short field, short gravel bar, obstacles at the end, high density take offs etc.

Very good teaching video. And I like the rudder work as well. A good skid around, in ground effect, makes so much more sense than a stall part way over the obstruction or in too steep a level turn. Hooking a wing is no fun either.

Keep up the good work, both of you.

Thanks contact, my twin says thanks too (just kidding, its just me flying both planes)

Great video José... when they call you to Hollywood, visit us in Camarillo.
Best,

Contrary to what I would have expected, the Cessna being high wing, when in ground effect and when gaining speed its harder to keep low to the ground , and wants to lift on its own and I need to push harder on the yoke than in the CJ6 which is a low wing.
