Having done a bit of LOMAC flight simulation, if I remember right you control your altitude with the throttle. You setup your glide path and if you're in danger of overshooting the landing strip you ease off the throttle and vice-versa. The elevator should only be used for initially setting up your glide path, after that you only use the rudder and throttle.
I guess having a large scale plane with flaps makes this a lot easier to do [sm=angel_smile.gif]
That's true of a flat bottomed wing or one with a positive angle of attack/incedence built in (and flaps act to increas a wings' angle of attack). A symmetrical wing just flies slower with less throttle . . . up to the point of stalling and usually rolling to one side. Unfortunately, models don't have a stall alarm, red airspeed zone on the instrument face or a published landing speed and a way to judge same from your position on the ground.
Even with a symmetrical I line up and fly her in to six feet elevation or so and then cut the throttle with a touch of flair. Biplanes are especially prone to disaster if you try and land them by dropping throttle to bring them in slow from any elevation.
