Guest Walter Buschor Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Oh dear! Thats one thing I cannot do. Sit on top of a broomstick!! It makes me dizzy just watching . Call me what you like but there's no way I would fly a drifter or anything like it. Sitting on an ikea chair with bugger all beneath you and NOTHING on the sides. I'm a chicken. ..... Well done though ! Walter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Qwerty Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 On the other side of the coin, I can't wait to get in (on?) a Drifter. I love helicopters for exactly that reason. The idea of flying without any clutter around me is very appealing, just me flying without the massive instrument panel and doors.....ahhhhhh. Maybe Tomo can help me out??

facthunter Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Confidence. Cheeeze David , if I can do it, anybody can. Believe me there are few aeroplanes that can give you the feeling of being part of the sky like the front seat of a Drifter. Like the difference between watching TV and being there.

XP503 Posted December 26, 2009 Author Share Posted December 26, 2009 Thanks guys. Can't describe how much I love Drifters, everything about them. Those who haven't tried them need to discover the joys of Drifter-Driving. Also -We as an organization (RAAus) must never let aircraft like the Drifter become things of the past, it's sad to see only a few online at schools, considering these aircraft were the mainstay of flying schools not so long ago........going fast is great and plastic fantastic's look pretty and I love flying these too, but you're not a real pilot until you've done a bit of Drifter flying......
