After several more flights a few additional comments. The plane/engine continues to break-in well. Nothing has come loose in the last four flights, so all the fittings must have seated in. I have yet to make a flaps up landing, but have no reason to try because she lands beautifully with full flaps. I have discovered that I have about a 6 click trim change between slow gear-down level flight and normal gear-up high speed level flight. I flew her inverted for a short distance just before landing on her last flight today and she seemed to handle it beautifully. It was only a short distance but I did not notice an extreme elevator correction being required. I flew her first loops and they were actually pretty tight with no tendency to snap out. She also did some split-S's, barrel rolls, and aileron rolls with no problem. The four flights today were at our field that has a paved runway. Takeoffs were fine with an easily controlled pull to the left on takeoff.

We did have a landing problem that I have not figured out yet. On landing rollout she was jerking pretty hard to the right just at transition from flying to tail on the ground. Pulling hard enough to tip up on one wing tip. Did not scrap any thing and had no tendency to nose over. Just suddenly pull hard right and tip. Then when the speed dropped even more she was fine. Did this on three landings. She didn't do this on the grass field and when landing in the dirt (sorry, missed my lineup on one landing). I have not been able to figure it out yet. Not sure if I'm landing to fast; or maybe just over correcting on landing roll-out. Will have to examine this more next time out.

One other thing. this DA50 is turning out to be a dream. I have 8 flights on her now and I have flown her for a quite a while and have yet to get below half a tank. Fuel consumption is not a problem for the DA50.

Hey, has anyone tried hovering a Mustang?
