Naaaah.... I'll rather stay in touch with my feminine side and sit a wee-wee.
The only "tailie" I have flown was a Pilatus Porter ... did the take-off and all but left the "beta" to my instructor!

Hi All
Managed to speak Koen the owner of ZU-FCO today and his pride and joy is just about ready to fly, I have to admit it looks pretty tidy with the Jabi 6Cyl upfront.
Cheers
Darren
