Up and down you might say... At least 3 gone down this year - 2 with fatalities.

Pilot error or mechanical/design error?

Somehow I think we are being lied to! :lol: :lol: ## I saw that there was a Trixy Aviation G4-2R at Kitty Hawk, painted white on the one side and camo on the other. Built in Germany.

Wow, that blue and black one looks stunning!!

What is the difference between the 2 and 4 bladed ones, seeing that the 4 bladed one has now flown?

What would the price for the II be, and what is the 19% MWST, a tax? Would that be applicable when exporting?

Whirly.

Thank you Gyrosa. Highly appreciated. I am not a low time pilot but just wanted to get clarity on a few pointers. So what I get from your advise on emergency landing is to glide her down to roughly a meter or 2 and then dead stick to break the forward speed before landing where ever you are (rough ...

Is Cayenne Pepper "rooipeper"? Where do you buy it and how much of it do you take?

I have Cinnamon with honey over my cereal (the tasteless bran stuff! ) and no-fat milk every morning.

Whirly.

If there are, can you give us a rundown on this machine and how it compares to others you have flown? Please!!
