In any aircraft, the idea is to touch down at minimum speed. This you learned in flight school or from your instructor. Regardless of the aircraft, if you float on landing, your touchdown speed was too fast. Stick and Rudder is an excellent place to get this information. Perfect practice makes perfect landings. NOW, what you all want to hear, NO I have never flown and landed any KR aircraft. As the rules for lift do not change, excess speed on landing will ALWAYS cause the aircraft to FLOAT, Virg Go ahead, I have broad shoulders and a DELETE KEY HUFF PUFF
