REFLECTOR: Tips

[Scott Baker]

Bob -
'Nose slamming' is a right of passage during early flight training - but the aircraft should be landed on its mains ... holding the nose wheel off until the canard is just about "out of steam".  Pls come by and let Scott or me take a ride with you to see what's happening.
Best regards,
SB

  Lou,  Likely nothing. Most of us let the nose gear hit pretty smartly, I think. At least I seem to do that. I try to round it out a few feet above the runway but seem to hit pretty smartly in any case. Velocity has a strong gear (mine is an XL FG) and it seems to stand it pretty well.
