I just heard the podcast with Stuart. Phew. I can certainly see why one would delay the flight for ideal conditions. The comment from Stuart about having to "fly the P40 into a landing" is what gets me since the only field I have access to that works well with retracts is still a grass field, but the short, manicured grass part is relatively short and the field is surrounded by trees making for a tricky approach if I have to come in with power.
