RE: Flaperons? Those keep your wings from getting tired, right?
I have to admit that I chickened out. I know I'm a *kittykat* but I was too afraid to screw with the flaperons or the spoilerons. A gentleman at the field who's been flying for ump-teen years recommended no ailerons or anything that could increase the washout on those types of airplanes. (p-40, p-47, etc)
I did find something that worked though.
I reduced my idle and changed my approach.
Now when I pull out of that last leg on final I'm a bit lower AGL, but closer to scraping weeds. I also reduced the throttle by 2-5%.
I think what helped the most was reducing the throttle. I'm afraid of a flame out during final, so I kept the idle just low enough so the plane won't roll on concrete. I think you wanna keep the idle at 2-5% above idle... Not sure on that though.
