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. Roger Halstead (K8RI EN73 & ARRL Life Member) www.rogerhalstead.com N833R World's oldest Debonair? (S# CD-2) snip
