Default Cermark MB339 Struts

Thanks to Jim Brown (Canada), Gary Szetlak and I were able to land our P-80 powered MB-339's without bouncing at Heart of Ohio Jet rally last weekend. These MB-339's are using Spring Air retracts with wire struts. Previous attempts to land was followed by minor bouncing followed by MAJOR bouncing!

Jim's secret was to add a little "crow" to the ailerons in conjunction with flaps. His formula was ailerons up 3/8", flaps down 1 and 1/8". It worked for both of us!

Thanks
