step 3: once the airspeed is around 110 put in full flaps and roll out of the slip as the flaps are extending making sure to abide by "slips with flaps are not reccomended"

step 4: land the airplane somewhere around 80 which should give you just enough float to not land that sweet short field landing on the numbers of your favorite class B and then taxi 4000' to the first exit at 5 knots giving thumbsup to all of the jets holding short for your "sweet" perfect short field landing right on the numbers

It makes controllers happy when you say you can give them 140 on an approach in a skychicken

disclaimer: please do not attempt this if it is beyond your ability, and not reccomended in actual unless you have more ifr experience than the 3 hours in the hood you got for your private
