I am very excited with this technology, as for many years I have been dreaming of electrical motors for aircraft. In the hopefully not too distant future we may see electrical motors with Rotax 912 performance with 5 hours endurance - JP, good luck with your venture and please keep us updated. Are y...

Hi there, I am finally on leave! Had a splendid session Monday and this morning, and today I did my first landings! It is this part of trike flying that I was worried about the most, but I managed three landings today and it doesn't seem that difficult as I imagined. Only time will tell, but I am fe...

Great stuff Bryan, keep it coming! :D

I am using your advice and it does help a lot to keep the bar neutral with only two fingers. Yesterday we did some power-on and power-off stalls, and then some low level flying, The idea was to fly out to Bronkhorstspruit dam, but we had clouds closing in, and rather trained in the GF. And this morn...

Good job Dreamer! Many safe and happy flying hours in the future! :D

Updated my blog with my experiences. Had a minor runway excursion during one of my high-speed taxi runs (yeah, ...

Hi Trixie,

When are we getting our next aviation reading splendour fix?

Hi everyone, I spotted a photo of this type in a local magazine recently, and also saw that Mike Blyth and Oliver Aubert did the South to South expedition using the DTA Voyageur II. Any local knowledge or info will be interesting. Looks like a very tough design, and the single pillar is quite a uniq...

Some good strong thumbs there loansharkblv! Thanks! The weather played along and I had an absolutely magnificent time! Some paperwork, lesson in trike inspection, and quite a bit of flying time. So now I can state I have 1.0 hour dual time in training! Woohoo! Still stuck with a big :D on my face. I...

Hi everyone, the weather did not play along, and flying was cancelled. Have a look at my blog for an update.

Tomorrow morning (Monday) 07:30, if the weather manage to look up

I am very excited, and wil let everyone know how it pans out! Good luck to the rest of the guys wo made contact that are also busy with their training!

Hi siasd,

Those pics look more like the Clipper

Tanarg has an entirely different frame and fairing bits.

Hmm, good one: My list as self-loading cargo: Bell Jetranger Boeing 747-300 Boeing 737-200 Boeing 737-400 Boeing 737-800 Boeing 727 Airbus A340-200 MD-82 Harvard Tecnam P-92 Navion Cessna 172 Cessna 210 Piper 180 & 235 Jabiru J400 Beechcraft Baron and of course Aquilla, as I don't have any rating ye...

I would also be interested in a comparative discussion.
