just use partial dive brakes (still far more effective than most spoilered
ships) until you're down close to the flare....then drag everything out..it's like having a drag chute.the glider will slow and touch down effortlessly... you can pretty much then use the dive brakes to get you slowed down and hardly need a wheel brake once you get use to doing this you'll never be happy with anything less! tim "Scott Elhardt" wrote in message om... I've been happily flying my H303 Mosquito for a year now and my landings seem to be getting worse as time goes on. I have tried a lot of approaches to the process, but inevitably I'm faster that I want to be and don't touch as lightly as I'd like especially with a lot of brake out. Any trailing edge dive brake experts care to describe your accumulated perspectives? Scott |
