Gary,
If your airplane's tail is the proper height, as soon as the nose
comes down the angle of attack of the wing becomes negative, thus not
creating lift. In other words, do not hold the nose up after touching
down in a cross wind landing.

Ok, here goes. I now have no rudder pedals on my coupe;I understand
the crab to the runway landing, and the plane will straighten out.
However, with all my steering coming from the yoke, how do I put in
corrections once on the ground for x-wind.....In my Cessna, I used
the ailerons to keep the wind from lifting the windward wing. What
keeps the wing from lifting in my coupe? Remember, I am new and have
been working for 3 months to get this plane ready to fly...Today, or
tomorrow she is gonna be airborne. Thanks for reding this note.
