Default RE: AV8R setup

I disagree Ronnie

The AV8R is the easiest jet to fly and land.
If you setup your flaps and elev down mix, come in high, idle and sink slowly to the flare, you should nail it everytime.

This plane should not be brought in with nose high attitude for landing on a long approach.

Any jet can get into the dreaded bounce oscillation, even my AV8R did on hard surface a couple of times if you don't slow down enough and your nose wheel touches first.

On grass, I could spot land it most times on 300ft runway.
