prophecy ?

[Anthony Romano]

What I found very helpful was spoilerons set to a switch for landing. On my 
Prophecy I think I had both ailerons come up about 5 degrees but had it 
adjustable on a knob. Higher deflections require a down elevator mix. Try 
these up high before you start shooting lots of approaches. Sequels, 
Prophecy's, etc. were so clean a slow nose high approach with a good very 
low idle was a necessity for landing.
