I own one of the early 235s with an 0235 and small tail. The plane is definitely sensitive and VERY easily over controlled...I think that is most of the problem. I also believe people don't tell all ie problems they have had for fear of others opinion. I think the tail is big enough. It seems from what I can gather the elevator can run out of pitch control on landing causing a hard nose landing. My answer is to not land on a full header tank. I don't really have that much time but I have solved my understanding/learning curve Hope this is of some help...jim Guldi CFI

Flight training is key with any new unfamiliar aircraft you will be flying. A refresher course is always good even if you have not been flying that type of aircraft in a long period of time. As for the A&P who is doing the inspect and for the owner as well, I would go to the Lancair website and download all the Service Bulletins for the L235 aircraft.
www.lancair.com
Ross at Lancair is a highly knowledgeable on 235's, if the A&P is unfamiliar with Lancair's or composite aircraft I also suggest taking the plane to a shop that specialises in Lancair's or composite aircraft.
Hope this was helpful and good luck.
