Every pane of glass in the nose seems to have a different index of refraction. Items appear to move around when viewed through different windows.
As the airplane slows, the flight controls become considerably less responsive. And the airplane becomes less stable, especially in yaw. Downwind at 170, base and 160, and decelerating to stable approach at 125. Stall speed in the landing configuration is 95 and the airplane is now a bit of a
handful. The secret, as in any airplane is small corrections made early. Aileron inputs will result in adverse yaw that, uncorrected, will drag the nose several feet in the opposite direction of aileron application. Manifold 22 or 24 seems to be the power setting for the final. Getting slow in the landing
