ya the warrior is bad about floating. what I do when I fly one now is similar to
how I land my arrow, I dont really flare, just a few seconds before touching
down, I pull back only slightly onthe yoke so the mains touch first then as soon
as they touch I pull back more to keep the weight off the nose wheel. keeping
your nose low untill just before the mains touch down and only a slight flare
will help you break through the ground effect better. the more you flare the
more you float.

Then you are too fast.

Flown by the book they are easy to land and no floating.
