It's been about 2 years since I've flown a "nice" plane, last few weeks been fly'n my spad and the thing is just not right! I have a balsa plane also that I'd like to fly but don't have the "goodie bag" to do it, so I'm practicing on the sim.

Question: When you land do you just throttle back and glide it in, or use throttle for elevation and elevator to control speed?
I want to practice doing it right and I believe it's the throttle/elevator way to do it.

fyi: getting a new avistar coming and have a sukhoi(?) profile on the bench; also my spad-stick, which is very spaztic in the air(the planes fault not the pilot)

Thank you for the help, this site has been so helpful. Happy newyear!
