I'm told by Ivan that this is what you should do if the plane is nose
heavy. Dunno if he (or Pete Clarke) ever tried it. Conversely, if one tried
to land fully trimmed for the glide and nose heavy, Don's slide rule says
that one would run out of elevator authority. One would find out that way,
wouldn't one? Explain the bounce {:-)
