Thanks Guys! :wink: I am very fortunate to be in a position where I can take time off work to fly whenever an Instructor is available.Obviously I have to thank the guys @ Microland in accommodating me after normal training hours to have achieved what I have in such a short time.Big D , I read an article about your Mainair in a copy of SA Pilot (June/July 2006)yesterday.Impressive stats! =D* Does it really perform as well as they say?!Would love to fly it one day!
Thanks Again.
Cheers.

No - They are lying - It is BETTER!! Seriously though I would imagine that the article was about the GT450 - I fly the Gemini, an older model.

Only old toppies fly GT450's though - You get discount when you produce your pensioner's card and it has a great in flight trim system because old people cannot pull bar :lol: - Awesome plane though

Will organise you a flip for sure - Maybe a pensioner will even take you up in a GT450 - Will make you wish you were old too :lol:

I see SkyRiders have a Bantam and will be doing conversions. Checked it out yesterday, nice black one.
