RE: Phoenix Strega flaps
What ever you do, don't use flaperons on a Strega or WM Mustang! You may get away with it a few times if you land perfectly into the wind, but sooner or later it'll snap roll just off the deck when a tips stalls on you. Up reflex will slow it down only a small amount on those planes, don't get carried away with too much up refex or it will be dropping the plane too fast. Spend more time practicing approaches. Hint: always have the plane descending for your approach, be ready to FEED in throttle. Avoid stretching out or level approach, it's harder too judge speed and you may end up falling out of the sky.
