You said that you are flying a a small field. It sounds to me like a slow landing speed is an asset. The hotter then landing speeds, the more airspace you'll need to set up on your approach.
That doesn't make sense to me, right now I have to give my trainer a ton of room to let it slow down, and then when I decend on my final it wants to speed up again. I also get lots of bouncing and floating.
I asked about this and was told that side slipping was the best way to slow it down enough to quit flying. So now on my final I sideslip it which causes it to loose speed fast.
I can fly it this way, so I'm not trying to get another plane to displace some lacking skill, more like I just don't like how it flies and want something more enjoyable.
The tiger 2 looks pretty good. I can fly it until I am used to it, then convert it to a tail dragger.
Thanks,
