Giraffe Mk4

I built this plane to see how much difference the cockpit location made on judging the flare during landing. There is nothing particularly special otherwise in the build. Try to keep the final approach speed around 120-130 mph and touch down a bit above 100mph. Keep the vertical speed at touch down quite low, as otherwise the plane will tend to topple forward.
