Hi,
So I didn't find many reviews of the Katana prior to my 'checkout'
flight 'attempt' in one. This afternoon I took a 1.2 hr checkout
flight with a CFI from Diamond Air (
www.ksql.com
) at San Carlos
airport (KSQL).
Summing up my opinion: If you're over 5'8", or have a long torso,
forget about the Katana. I'm 5'11" and it wasn't too good.
Thanks for the review. One question though, was this a Katana? Or
the newer Eclipse/Evolution model? The latter two are close to
identical I think, but there was a reasonable amount of change from
Katana to E* models I hear.
