Default Oh, he's good...

Cool. Someset, Dorset, A35?

I've only flown one Jodel. It's an amazing airplane. A 1040, I think.
100hp, originally a Potez, but the guy got tired of finding parts so he put
an O-200 in it. It sould actually carry four out of a short field and three
with full fuel which was about 6 hours IIRC. cruised at about 100knots as
well.Why would anyone fly a 150 after having met one of those?

Mine's a D-11. All wood, fabric cover. A-65 Continental. 85 kt
cruise. Two seats. Good STOL airplane unless it's a high DA day and at
gross. 15 gallons and 4 or 5 GPH, so not a lot of range.
Even this one makes a 150 look anemic.
