Fieseler Fi.186 C-2

but fun to fly and a real challenge in a cross wind to land. Normal take off is with one notch of flaps, extremely short take off is two notches. Landing settings on the flaps depends on how short a distance you want to land in, come in low and slow and go to full flaps and brakes at touchdown for short landings. You want to pull back on the stick during this manuver or its "Mow the Grass" time. Normal landings should be with one notch (or none with a contrary wind). The flaps on this bird are fun to experiment with in varying conditions. More flaps is getting into the "Hover or Stall" mode. It has extremely short take off and an even shorter landing (take off in less than 200' and land in 50' with a head wind! In normal flight its fun to fly and forgiving in most instances. On stalls and spins just have plenty of alttitude or its over quick! While I haven't gotten the conditions just right yet myself, the plane is capable of almost hovering in a head wind and the right throttle settings. I was almost at a hover and slipped sideways and went in! Enjoy it! It has become my "Scenery Touring Plane". [/quote]
[quote]Flight dynamics of the Storch: Its slow and low with this aircraft. It will slip sideways, stall and spin and I even got it to waggle the wings in a sideways crashstall. Its slow turning
