Chris: I was taught brakes: two to three notches (depending how recently they'd been tweaked)on downwind otherwise you could have a bad day...mind you this was on one with the cleveland mod.

Shaggy: don't forget a tug on the ring pull thingy under the front panel to make the oil sprayer go quiet.


Oh and post flight: Allow time for engine to cool a bit (about the time needed to make then drink a cup of tea) then arm yourself with plenty of paper towels or rag and get wiping (the oil off the various bits of airframe) and there will be loads especially if you've done any aeros...

Great fun though the Chippy has one of the best grins per pound ratios I've ever come across...
