Ehab and I maidened my SBB this last weekend and what a great flyer!!

I could not believe how slow it could fly!!. IN-CRED-I-BLE!!

I landed without airbrake at a crawl[X(] with the P-70 at idle. I had my Bandit expert with me and his help was very much appreciated. The airplane never seemed to "mush" on me but I had to feed some right rudder to make the strip and it suddenly tip stalled out of the sky with the right wing tip hitting first.[sm=75_75.gif] This cought us both by surprise. Ehab thought that I had given aileron causing the tip stall but as we all know rudder is the go to surface for correction on approach. Some damage to the gear but nothing too bad. I've already fixed her.

I mixed some crow into the ailerons for the next flight.

I reread the landing suggestions in the bvm instructions and I will make the following adjustments on my next landing

1. Airbrake on

2. 2-3 Degrees of glide slope (that's almost an imperceptable amount[]) I.e., keep the nose down.

3. Crow (about 1/2 an inch) on the ailerons

4. POWER BABY all. the. way. to. the. ground.


What do you guys think?? Thanks for the input.
