paulsnapp, I would not suggest that you maiden it and make your first landing at 75 degree flap deflection. Start out, IMO somewhere between 30 to 45 degree landing flaps and with mine, that does require up elevator trim of about 6%-9%. I also like to do my landing approach 42% throttle, then a few feet off the ground reduce it to about 28% throttle at which point I let the mains touch and only cut the throttle after the mains are down. Works for me but I'm sure other more experienced pilots have probably even better techniques.
