Newbie pilot RV9A porpoise on landing but saved it

too fast on landing.... on the first bounce he should have added power, but eventually he did and saved it. a learning moment for him. he will do better next time. never push the nose down upon landing, it's always a gentle pulling aft. always aft....

Clean canopy - yes

you cannot get a quality clean canopy with only micromesh because it smears and does not pickup the grime. micromesh is good for the first pass to get the bugs, leave it wet and then come back with soft cotton (used white t-shirt) to make it sparkle. 10 yrs, novus 1. https://i.postimg.cc/1z2xQBKN/IM...

Re: a couple printed widgets

headset holder, mounted with 3M Dual Lock, going on 2 1/2 years. dog stake weight = 1.1 lb. scuffing the plastic seems to have made a huge difference.

Re: RV9A down - final report - N192MH

RV9A down - final report - N192MH well, this is a classic example of spatial disorientation, losing control and exceeding Vne and breaking up in-flight. RV aircraft are especially susceptible to this because they are relatively clean airframes and delicate machines. the pilot must maintain control. ...
