At the time of the landing I had a total of 3hrs in it, of which 2.5 were in cruise getting there. That was the first day I had flown a Carbon Cub. I did 5 landings here with the boss, then I flew to McCall for gas, then JC. First time landing JC also. But I figured out my problem. Up to and including that landing I was flying final at 55mph. And at JC I wanted to 3 point it. Well Vr is 40mph...so duh....it's gonna go fly again when I try to bring the tail down. It got much better after that landing, and now I'm flying final at 45mph...plane stalls at 35 or less... Weird getting used to something flying so slow.

Too bad there's no video of Dixie Town, that was a nice landing! I need more practice!
