Tom-great info and thank you! Great stuff for me to work on next time I am out there. I flew safety pilot on Wed in a SR 22-my first Cirrus ride. Amazing how different from our old gals.

Andy-did you purchase Flip Comer’s 200?

And in the trim indicator-you are correct, it does not move much. As you are finding out, a slight twist of trim in either direction will get the desired result

  Ed,
  
  Try entering the pattern, or doing closed patterns by reducing power to 15” MP once you’ve reached your downwind altitude (should be ~120 mph), then at midfield put the gear down, which should slow you to about 100 mph, then add 20 flaps abeam your touchdown point and reduce power to just above idle. This may get you the parameters I mentioned previously, but all planes are slightly different, and power settings may vary.
  
  BL: just practice until you find a speed and power setting that works for you. I’d be happy to drive down to NC whenever you are available to go for a ride. My plane is in SC and I’m in DC, so I could stop on one of my trips south to visit my plane.
  
  VR, Tom
