    It would certainly eliminate blind spots caused by window frames etc. It would be like flying a Drifter. Alan.

    When banking, how about top rudder pedal and bottom rudder peddle?? Alan.

    I'll let you know what my wife says next Wednesday....only 5 nights to go. Alan.

    One advantage with a glider is spoilers. Alan.

    Dunno what the fuss is all about, I flew my Winton Swingwing that only had one wing, it just happened to have one bolt in the middle and stretched across both sides of the fuselage.

    There were two Beagle Pups, One Terrier, three Airdales , one Supa Pup and his dad an AeroPup. Alan.

    Well done Bex, I was born in 1939 so I should just scrape in. Not only is your article very true, but I can relate to all of it. I will make multiple copies and include them inside my childrens and grandchildrens birthday cards. Thanks for the post. Alan.

    Love that model Cessna however, I have a model which has three wings, twin tail booms with three vertical fins, one on each boom and another mounted mid way between on the adjoining tailplanes, it also has three engines like a DH Drover. I thing your model is superb however a good friend of mine who is a newspaper journalist stated that my Cessna was better. . Alan.

    You are correct, a jar of Vaseline (starters cream) feels the same when reaching for it in the drawer by the bed in the dark.. You will all have to visualise the result. True story. Alan.

    Are you endorsed for 'Groundabatics"? Alan.

    Congratulations beefy. It may take 100 hours of training to gain a pilot certificate( if you are a slow learner) but you will be lucky to remember 10% of those hours. You may have flown over 5,000 hours during your flying years, but you will be lucky to remember 5% of those hours. BUT you will never forget every detail of your first solo. Alan.

    I guess that I am in real trouble.....does anyone have a spare few acres of land they could give me so I can plant thousands of trees.... I just love my baked beans.. Alan the old fart.

    I used to fly low and slow in my Tyro, absolutely fantastic. With a cruise speed of 45 knots and a head wind of 30 knots, ground speed was only 15 knots but if I wanted to go 'really fast' I just turned down wind and I was doing 60 knots now that's a speed increase of 400%. To top it all with a 30 kots head wind and flying just above the stall I could virtually hover. Alan.

    Stone the crows ozzie, that was a helluva long flight.

    She must have spotted him whilst looking through her eyeglass. Alan.

    That's a baby Turboporter.. Alan.

    Captured Alien? Could it be Turboplanner.? .

    Losing two per year??? must be very poor navigation. . Alan.

    I've been for a spin down the runway in my car and I didn't even turn once. If you can walk away from a landing it was a good one.. Alan.

    What ever it is I like it. Alan.

    And Jay won 60c in a local raffle. Alan.

    Not to mention your Merlin Multi engine endorsement. Alan.

    Only used for the 'drop outs'. Alan.
