Q:

WHAT FACTORS IN ADE DO YOU CHANGE TO GET AIRCRAFT TO SIT FIRMLY ON THE GROUND? 

A:

The answer is that the flight model's gear is longer than the visual model's. (Btw, this can also cause the Stall Warning to come on while taxiing - particularly with a taildragger). Just change the 'Gear Locations (U/D)' in ADE. As with any change to a parameter which can affect other dynamics (in this case, the gear heights also determine the fuselage angle on the runway and therefore the forward view angle), it is best to make the change to an FS95 version of the plane in ADE98 and do a 'recalc', then convert the plane to FS98 again.
