RE: Throttle position for level flight vs. landing?
John, it is just a tad bit nose heavy. My instructor said to leave it that way for now, he said it makes it a bit more forgiving and is well within the Mfg. acceptable CG range on the instructions. It's at 3-3/8" from the leading edge and the instructions say target 3-3/4" with a range of 3-1/4"-4". Maybe I miss stated it in my last message above, but it doesn't fly like it's all jacked out. I haven't tried to adjust the trim for slower level flight. I was just assuming that it would react like my trainer and climb if I applied throttle. I tend to use my last two turns to bleed off altitude in a slightly nose down attitude which I guess is contributing to my speed (hot landings). Maybe I need to keep the nose more level as I reduce throttle and extend my approach so I have a longer glide path and let the plan slow down that way. I don't have a lot of stick time on this plane, and I guess that is also showing. Thanks for the responses. DG
