Hey Great looking machine.I haven't flown the one with tip tanks. Our field is being realigned and the sprinkler system bumps make landings a bit unique. Simco

If you have flown the other one then you know to fly the bird to the ground.
With those tanks...added weight, drag... Yep... I'd say keep the hammer down.. 1-3 feet off the deck...cut the power.
