Listers,
A friend advised me not to full stall land an RV-8. He says that the
elevator gets blanked when full flaps are used so he only wheel lands
his plane. What say ye.

First flight soon.

Dear Jim
I have over 1300 hours on my RV8 and usually wheel land on hard surface and
stall land with FULL flaps on my grass airstrip. I have never noticed any
unusual landing characteristic with either full or half flap landings. My
RV8 is equipped with a Lycoming IO390 engine and an extended hub
AeroComposites propeller. My CG is in a normal range. I hope this helps
you.
