Years ago a friend that I worked for in a glider ride business and I would have a short field landing contest at the end of the day in an old Franklin M4. We started out doing it with both of us in the airplane,,, that didn't last long. We then went one at a time. It was for who was buying drinks and supper that night. We got pretty good at it. One evening we just went straight to the die-down. Nothing really needed to be said, We both knew we were getting close to doing some damage to the airplane.
B. E. A. UTIFUL PLANE!!!!
