That includes its behavior on sudden airbrake deployment. You don't get a lot of sink right away. My first reaction was that the airbrakes were weak but a little more experience showed me that with a little patience, the brakes took effect and produced a respectable decent rate. The Duo just makes you plan ahead a little more than with a light single seater. No, that was another to whom I was replying. Use care with editing, please. Jack |
