Playing w/ One’s Johnson…

From time to time, discussions on the web pop up claiming that using the stock Cessna flap handle, or “Johnson Bar” can obstruct a pilots view or worse, be “unsafe” or even dangerous when used in critical stages of flight.

Curious as to the validity of these claims and in light of this debate, I set out with the GoPro to see just how much my head moved during STOL flap operations.

You can be the judge…
