    That plane is a STOL. That wing contour is high lift and with those flaps extended as they are the stall speed is probably around 40 mph or less. It does not take much wind for that plane to do a vertical descent. I was at a windy airshow once when an ordinary DH Tiger Moth landed and rolled about 10 yards before stopping.
