Pecole Posted December 29, 2014 Author Share #4 Posted December 29, 2014 Well done, they are nice, I've flown them a lot. "Robinson" (R22) though.Gary Of course, Gary, it's an R22, but we call them "Robin Hood" here. I agree with you : nice to fly, although a little "touchy" for me (too light?). Thanks for your comment.

gbealnz Posted December 29, 2014 Share #5 Posted December 29, 2014 Hello Pierre, I learnt in one, and then went on to teach in them, a fine aircraft, as long as you didn't exceed it's limits. Nowadays my "office" is a bit bigger, a new EC130T2. Gary Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 80+, I may only dream of such experiences, but still enjoy flying memories...that date from as far as 1950 ! Thanks for your note.
