Flight; Landing - GREAT PLANES Easy Sport 40 Instruction Manual

Flight

We recommend that you take it easy with your Easy Sport
for the first several flights and gradually "get acquainted"
with this fantastic airplane as your engine gets fully broken-
in. Add and practice one maneuver at a time, learning how
she behaves in each one. For ultra-smooth flying and
normal maneuvers, we recommend using the "low rate"
settings as listed on page 20. If you notice any
"sluggishness" in the way your Easy Sport handles, it is
probably a result of not enough speed, in which case you
should install a propeller with increased pitch.

Landing

When it's time to land, fly a normal landing pattern and
approach. If you find that it lands a little fast, you might try
dialing in a few clicks of up elevator when you cut the
throttle on the downwind leg of the landing pattern. This will
automatically help to bleed off some of the speed. If your
Easy Sport is built straight and true, you'll find that you can
really flare it out for slow, nose-high, full-stall landings
without fear of tip stalling.
Have a ball, but always stay in control and fly in a safe
manner. GOOD LUCK AND GREAT FLYING!
