One thing you can try is to "crab" the plane by moving
the rudder one direction and moving the ailerons the
opposite direction. The plane will still be going
forward in a straight line but the fuse will be
slightly sideways, creating drag and slowing it down.
I'm attempting to master this techinque to land my
wingaron CR Contender, but it takes practice.
