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!

I saw a cri-cri on the ground and doing some aerobatics last year. It
was really hard to believe it could fly at all, let alone so well!
Mind, you I would not have been able to get in it (and even if I could
I don't know that I would want to).

I'd love to fly one. A set of drawings just changed hands on ebay last week
for 1600 bucks!

I don't think you should start drooling over a new plane 'til you
finish the old one. Mrs. Bunyip won't tolerate it. But if you want to
fly one come visit me.

Shweeeeeeet! Where are you WingFlaps? Is the plane yours, or is it
one that you have access to?
