Part of the problem, I think, is that you've specified an
unrealistically high performance in the "approach" section of the
YASim config file.  A 16 degree angle of attack is basically at the
stall, so the airspeed shouldn't be 71 knots.  Start with something
like 14 degrees and 55 knots, then play around until both landing
performance and in-air stalls are realistic.  Remember that the
aircraft model is specified a fair bit below maximum gross weight, so
the stall speed should be slower than the published one.

Fixing the approach section might help that.


All the best,
