A real piloting story

Sacramento Valley west, impossible to see clearly with the setting sun
and haze.

Nicely done. Thanks for sharing that.

between a CT, an Ercoupe, or a Decathlon...

Good morning Jay,

If I remember correctly, you have flown the CT some. I have seen
comments regarding it's handling, especially on approach and landing,
indicating that it's more difficult than the "average" airplane. I
know that this is entirely subjective but since you had experience in
aircraft similar to those I have flown (Cherokees), I wonder if you
would share your thoughts on the Flight Design's handling?

Of course, if there is anyone else out there with any time in a CT2K
or a CTSW, your thoughts would be appreciated as well.

Thanks in advance and Blue Skies to all.

John
