There are three secrets to making great landings. Unfortunately, nobody knows what they are. That's an old joke but fortunately, there is a proven way to make better landings, and that's by collecting data on your landings. Host Max Trescott talks with Chuck Cali about how you can collect data for your landings and compare it with other pilots. The techniques apply to anyone flying a modern glass cockpit, such as the G1000. Chuck has analyzed 40,000 Cirrus landings and concluded that pilots could be doing a better job, especially during the flare and touchdown.
