Thanks, tweaking the touchdown AoA was definitely useful. My problem is that I don't have any solid figures for the AoA, so anything I put in there would be a guess. The best clue I could find was that the Falke touches down tail wheel first at around 65-70 km/h. That would require an AoA of about 10-20 degs wouldn't it? But that's not really an approach speed but a good approximation of the stall speed and critical AoA. Would that help the solver?
