Its been said by myself and a couple of others in this thread, but let me try to rephrase it: Those of you saying "well it worked for me" are missing the point. YOU are on the inside, looking out. That's not what Bruce is saying. Look back at his comment. I agree with him too: on Saturday we had a trail flighter and some starting student pilots out and were using an ASK-21, a G.103 Acro II with out Puchacz visible in the hangar. The visitors and students really didn't distinguish between the three two-seaters, even one Polish guy who knows his power planes well enough to know what a Wilga is. I think Bruce is right: if a two-seater has a composite airframe, is painted white, and is well-maintained even a Puchacz and an ASK-21 are similar enough that that anybody who isn't 'one of us' won't make distinctions between them. -- martin@ | Martin Gregorie gregorie. | Essex, UK org | |
