Default RE: Better Landings For The Great Planes 1/3 Pitts

Not only are they tough to land in full size too,, but normally you must be signed off by an instructor after a course on how to land the Pitts. The plane jumps into the air,,, but it is no pony ride to land without prior instruction.
I don't know if the same technique applies to the RC version but the whole process reminds me of a shallow carrier landing approach.

That's me in the S2B.
