Ok, thanks, and no need to apologise! I have always thought my Apollo Fox a very nice compromise on all those factors, certainly for the beginner pilot that I consider myself. And yes, I found I can land on 200 metre runways, but then I must be really sharp on the approach speed.
Witness my first and only crash, luckily to very limited harm, when I was too high and one second later too fast when landing at Liernu EBLN - and one second late in realising I'd been better to go around.
