Hey guys, we have a new RV-14 on the field (tail dragger).
On both wheel and 3-point landings, there's a lot of bounce. 70-73kts over the threshold, mains touching at the 7:00 position, right on the stall, a lot of bouncing down the runway (hence, the nickname). It's exaggerated on wheel landings.
With no 14 tail dragger experience, curious if you guys are experiencing the same thing and what you have done to adjust or any tips you may have?
Also, what tire pressures on the mains are you running?
Thanks!
