  1. Love the little bird! … but could use a little extra love. E.g. the Fuel Tank Selector is a total mystery. It’s a 3-way selector without any labelling/decals and no explanation in your manual. The original manual learns that it’s a Main, Reserve and Off … but position is which setting? Also the Fuel Lever on the left … what is it? Mixture? Shut Off? Again the original manual learns it’s a P1, P2, P1+P2 or Shut Off Fuel Filter selector. I can appreciate that that is not necessary as it is for failure management only. But at least please put a decal on it.
  2. I am actually of the opion that the Drag-profile is incorrect, as well. Deceleration in level flight is slow. The original manual indeed states to fly final approach in idle power. (It does not say, don’t make your final approach too long or your engine will stall during a go around, but that’s another issue.) However it also says that should you make a shallower power on approach, suddenly taking away the power will make the aircraft rapidly lose speed! But that’s not what happens.
