Landing Techniques
When I am in the plane with a friend in the front seat, and no one/nothing in the rear, we are near the forward cg limit. I'm a big guy (ex football player) and so are most of my friends. I've noticed that before landing, I run out of nose up trim, and the aircraft's nose becomes very heavy, making a smooth, coordinated landing flare more difficult than it should be. I've been told to increase my speed, leave more power in on the front engine, and some other things. What are your thoughts?
BTW, My Bonanza never had any such issue, but you had to be VERY careful not to put too much weight in the back or it would be out of CG. 337 is almost impossible to get out of CG. So everything is a trade-off I guess.
