.Evan. Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 This Saturday, my friend and I flew down to Lethbridge to visit his friend who owns a Winjeel. We were under the impression that he was doing some work on it - so we were happy enough to go down to talk to him and see the thing up close. He really surprised us when he offered to jump in for a flight!!! We were even more impressed when we did some impromptu formation flying with the local joy flight provider. Full story here, if you wanna. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Notice the Winjeel has flap out to keep pace with the Agcat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Evan. Posted September 19, 2012 Author Share Posted September 19, 2012 Sharp eyes, Mick! Yep, Darren flew clean for a few seconds but the aircraft was too wishy-washy. One stage of flap made the controls much more positive at that speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
