will be that all landings will be
dead stick landings. with power
off. In this respect, the landings will
simulate those made in elders. Stu

from various attitudes and angles
until they attain maximum efficien-
cy in precision. power-off landings
This will prepare them for one OF
the more difficult features Of the

After the course is completed
here. the students. most of whom

schools for instruction In both large
