BVM T33 First Flight
The T-Bird is a real sweet heart to fly and land. I used no flaps, and up ailerons (~1/4" max) tied into the final position of the speed board switch.
The up aileron corrected the stall and bounce habits 100%. Made it my favorite jet to fly.
As prior post says, keep the take off climb out shallow and gain some speed before your first turn. Mine flew out of a 400' paved runway regularly.
Landings - Drop gear on overhead pass, reduce to 1/2 power on down wind and deploy 1/2 speed boards.
Turn from down wind to base - 1/4 power and full speed boards (with up ailerons).
On final - maintain just a few clicks of power (adjust for comfortable sink rate) with a slightly nose down or rather flat approach. About 100 feet prior to touch down, reduce power to idle. Let her settle in from 1' high with a slight flair.
I used brakes and had her stopped in about 200'.
Enjoy! It's a great, gentle, graceful plane to fly.
