I have seen some of CCs videos, Larry, and know he teaches good technique. What is it with some, not you, going for the camera shot that is neither good energy management nor safe? Safe maneuvering flight techniques are safe when we use them. The one time when we do not use them, Mike's default thing, is when Murphy bites. Different techniques for different conditions is not a valid argument for leaving a thousand feet of free ground effect energy unused because wind energy is also available. I look forward to your videos with CC and expect to learn some things.

Highly recommend it to any pilot, low time, high time or experienced backcountry pilot, stall recovery in 30ft, spins in the 170 and off airports landings were part of the menu this week.

Plus I got to fly the Experimental 170, which is amazing.
Got lots of great footage and will make a video of the full experience.

Got CCs book years back, from the book and his videos for a few reasons I’d like to fly with him one of these days
