              I've added another video today.

              In this one I look at configuration and data around approach and landing speeds, takeoffs, and cruise speed.

              The aircraft weight was very light (1970 LBS) for this video (one person, 50 LBS survival kit, half fuel), and the stall speed at this weight with F3 or F4 is 38 KIAS or 37 KTAS.
              There was a small headwind present of 3-5 KTS at times that shortened landing distances a little.

                  Nev, your participation in this forum community has been nothing short of fantastic. From build videos to flying videos, to general discussions, you consistently hit the mark, in my opinion. Thank you for that. As for landing technique, I prefer to do a tail low wheel landing with full flaps in my Patrol, desirable on rough surfaces, keeping the tailwheel off the ground for as long as possible. Basically the same as your stated “normal technique” but I don’t touch down in a 3 point attitude, darn close though.

                    Thanks Mike! Yes I think a Tail Low Wheel landing describes it well.

                      Had some fun yesterday with my friend John's drone. Very short video, but a different perspective.
