Default RE: Bobcat elevator mix while landing

This is how I crashed a Bobcat. I thought I remembered the Bobcat ballooning after flaps came down like most of my other aircraft, so I programmed down elevator, but after I hit flaps the Bobcat started flying down really fast. I tried to program out the mix, but ran out of fuel before I could finish and she went swimming in the pond!!! In hindsight I should have just landed without the flaps.
Oh well.
