Good question, Martyn. In the beginning she was a handful. So I opted to start and land her only on grass. After I had mastered this I ventured to concrete runways. Now, I guess, with quite some training I can get her up and land again without major hickups on any surface. The most important thing for me was, and in this respect the Spitfire is much easier to handle, to apply power very very sloooooowly. As soon as you get the tail up and find yourself still on the runway, things start to brighten up 😀
