Another Pitts saying... "The airshow begins when the Pitts flairs to

Approach speed is 90 kts, sink rate without power is high. A 180 degree
constant turn approach provides visibility of the landing area until
touchdown.
Budd Davisson says most landing accidents/incidents are caused by
overcorrecting with the rudder pedals.



This appeared to be exactly what happened - overcorrection to the right,
then the counter correction led directly to the ground loop.
