Got a quick Schweizer transition flight in yesterday. Nothing
spectacular, just a quick puddle jump to get me used to flying the
ugly little *******.


HEY!

Ugly is in the eye of the beholder. IMHO the 22 is about as fugly as you can
get,
and its hard to ignore that goofy cyclic and giraffe-in-a-neck brace
looking
mast shroud. Its like peoples kids, you cant ever say theyre ugly no matter
how
true it is.. The Schweizer & even the Enstrom have a kind of pinache all
their own.

LOL,
Bart

And in the case of the Hughes/Schweizer, a built in headwind too
