I have only slipped my 9A a few times. I rarely ever land without a slip in my Husky. The 9 slips well but I find it is not as comfortable as slipping a high wing draggy airplane like the Husky. The 9 takes a fair amount of rudder pressure-like cramp up your leg pressure. I find that if I am way too high, full flaps will make me drop like a rock-especially if you get it slow. I think the constant speed prop helps here quite a bit. I rarely ever go past half flaps for a normal landing. You do have to be very careful slipping with full flaps in the 9 since you will pick up quite a rate of descent that you will need to slow before you get too low.
