It was [strongly] recommended to me to use Hysol adhesive and glue solid the joint between the front of the fuselage and the rear. I was made aware of one case where the connection that is made by the four or five threaded bolts failed in flight during a high G vertical pull up from level. I glued it solid with Hysol and I can sleep at night. There is a lot of weight in the forward part of the fuselage so I can see where a failure such as that might occur.

This model flies GREAT! I love it but it continues to challenge me on landing. I find that I must land with some power on. It seems to be VERY draggy in landing configuration. I have some other jets where I can just chop the throttle and coast in to a nice landing. With this plane I have to maintain a couple of clicks of throttle stick all the way to the final flare otherwise I have had it drop out of the sky and tear out the landing gear from the mounting plates. I generally fly from a field that is about 3300 ft above sea level so that could be part of it.
