Default RE: GREAT PLANES GEE BEE ARF LANDING PROBLEMS?

Flew mine Saturday and had a perfect 3-point landing on the second flight: top of the cowl, top of the rudder, and top of a wing tip!

Robostruts make it much easier to land. Better to just power up and go around after the first bounce than to try and salvage an already bad landing. After the mains are planted it's time to start dancing on the rudder as the tail comes down because it will try to swap ends. My "flop" wasn't during the landing but near the end of the rollout! (Swerve, swerve, drag tip, touch cowl, over she goes!)

She's not so purty any more but she sure is a blast to fly. This is truly a plane of character.

I would certainly get another one
