What impression did you have of the aeroplane? I did my initial training on one.   The best way to get rid of the cat is roll inverted and it will fall away. Don't worry about the cat . They always land on their Feet and find their way home. Nev

Quite responsive and fun to fly. Climbing turn stalls can be very interesting as can be power on, flaps down stalls. I don't have much in the way of tail wheel time so its been a learning curve. Certainly makes one use the lower extremities a bit more.

Controls have good feel (Rods) Rudder could be bigger, Treat stalling with respect, It can Bite, Handbrake could be "different". Are you 3 pointing or wheeling it on? Solo it is different to 3 point than  with 2 onboard. Stop swing early and positively Rudder works a lot better when power is on. Practice bounced well controlled go arounds. IF you're not happy go around. Get used to having a RUDDER. and USING it.   Nev
