This article discusses an interesting landing technique. Does anyone
use it?
I used to use something like it in the Maule. Basically, if you're tail-low over
the runway in that aircraft, you pull the yoke back, say 1/8". If the plane
begins to climb, you aren't slow enough yet. Putting the yoke forward about 1/4"
then brings you back into position. When the back pressure doesn't cause a
climb, bring it smoothly back several inches to get the tail down that last foot.
I did not use this technique with full flaps landings. You're pretty close to a
three point attitude with those anyway.
