- keep it straight on the takeoff and landing roll. Best to overcontrol than let it get away.
- keep off the brakes during takeoff / landing roll.
- if you think you’ve achieved the three point attitude on landing, go a bit further. Touching down mains first during a three point landing will result in a bounce, touching tailwheel first won’t.
- 2 bounces then go-around, don’t wait to be told.
- after touchdown, keep the stick easing back until you hit the stop and hold it there.
- don’t look inside or at taxiway exits during the landing roll until you’re at taxi speed. That includes resetting flaps / trim.

these notes aren’t too bad.
