I recently had a chance to try a Dynaero MCR01. It looked tiny but I
was able to fit in (I'm over 6' 2") OK. It climbed out at 1500'/min
and had an airspeed ~140k in level flight. It felt so strange compared
to the C's I've flown. The stiffness of the wings/air frame was very
apparent as was the light weight (it's all CF). The stick forces were
light and I had only to think about a turn and it
would do it. It seemed very neutral in roll (up to 40 degrees) with
almost no rudder needed. Over 40 a slight overbank tendency appeared
but that may have been related to my coordination being a bit off. A
hard climb near Vx needed a lot of rudder compared to level flight. If
you get the chance I'd urge you to check it out -I'm amazed at what
100HP can achieve in a modern airframe!
I'd like to see what the 4 seat version can do too.


That's Michael Columban's airplane, isn't it? Yes, the figures are
unbeleivable, but he does do the unbeleivable!
