RE: Old JHH F-4 airframe conversion
scale dail, thanks for the input. Sorry to hear you lost your phantom, it looks top notch in the pics! I like the paint scheme.
Your info on landings helps out, thanks. I am guessing this thing doesnt flare like an F-16, but does it tip stall by dropping a wing or just get mushy? Did you have power on while wheels touched as well?
I am following Larry's advice of 30 deg flaps on takeoff and 60 deg flaps on landing. My bird is also 18 lbs wet, so I hope it will be ok on takeoff. I'll let it roll out as long as I can. Glad to hear someone else has had one of these fly well under turbine power!
