I balance dry. I want to be sure of the CG in a worst case landing. For example, a bone dry deadstick, I want to know I'm not too tail heavy to flair safely.

With the forward CG you will have to fly with power into the flair. If you come in just at idle, it may not flair at all. Especially if you land before you burn out most of that 20 ounces.

Fly down to a foot or so at or near idle. Pull back to flair. If the nose does not come up, then add a click or two more power. Control your descent with throttle and speed with the elevators. A biplane has a lot of drag to overcome, and with the forward CG may want to land hot.

If you deadstick, point the plane down several degrees, and come in with as much speed as you can maintain. Land deadsticks as hot as possible until you have done a few. Biplanes lose airspeed fast!
