nah, not USAF stuff. it was something we learned at Panam in Florida. of course i've heard it up north also while doing my CFI training, so i assumed it was a popular way to remember all the criteria. of course you know what making assumptions will do to you

also, i just want to know why some people keep refering to the gear as being part of Keel effect.am i missing something? from my studies and training i never heard or saw the two related. IMHO i believe the gear have nothing to do with keel effect as it is defined. anyone want to elaborate or give opinion on the fact?
