The spiritual succesor to another biplane I made a long time ago. For takeoff bring flaps down to half and apply full throttle. Pull back on the stick as the tail begins to fly until the plane lifts off. For landing use full flaps, approach the runway at 150 mph, and touch down at about 130 mph. Set the main wheels down gently or the aircraft will bounce.
