Can somebody go through the sequence so I can see it in writing and then practice it on the sim and then for real?
My instructor cleared me to fly on my own, but I'm having problems with coming in too hot, porpoising and flipping over in the tall stuff at the end of the field. No damage to anything besides my ego and several wood props (before I switched to a MA).
Do I ease back on power on the downwind? Wait until base or final? How far out from the end of the strip should I be lined up, and how high? At what altitude and distance from the strip do I chop power?
My instructor isn't going to be available for a couple of weeks (a work thing) and I didn't get enough tutorage on this point.
I can fly, manuever, do loops, rolls and take-off's fine, but my landings are U-G-L-Y!
Situational details: Aircore Cub (taildragger, of course), OS.46FX, Hitec Flash 5 (using standard 4 channel setup), 300' grass strip, no nearby obstacles other than tall grass surrounding the strip.
