Hi, I'm new to this group and new to piloting, just having passed my
private pilot FAA written and about halfway through flight school. I'm training in a Cessna 172SP and have a question for the experienced pilots out there. Do you prefer flying a high wing or low wing aircraft and why?...I apologize if this is a redundant question on the newsgroup. Thanks. CPW |

We've been fighting for years on this subject with Jim Fisher and Jay
Honeck, trying to convince them that low-wingers are more masculine and overall a better choice for real pilots, but they won't listen, so the subject is a taboo here now because of those two. Please try looking it all up in http://groups.google.com HECTOP PP-ASEL-IA http://www.maxho.com maxho_at_maxho.com PS. Wot me worry? "C. Paul Williams, MD" wrote in message om...

We've been fighting for years on this subject with Jim Fisher and Jay
Honeck, trying to convince them that low-wingers are more masculine and overall a better choice for real pilots, but they won't listen Don't let him fool you, Doc Williams -- HECTOP is a known high-wing pilot and Communist sympathizer. And we all know what them Com-simps are all about, now DON'T we....? By the way: It is now a direct violation of the Patriot Act to fly those wimpy high-wing planes in uncontrolled air space (because we all KNOW that high-wingers require careful and repeated direction in order to land safely), so unless you want to only fly into Class D or better airports, I suggest that you purchase a manly low-wing plane. Being a doctor, one would think that you'd be attracted to the studly low-wing Beech Bonanza, but there are other very capable aircraft out there, like the Cirrus SR-22. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

My brother always said I couldn't ever have a Bonanza because I have a PhD.
