The DR400 that's 'for hire' at Tatenhill is actually a 160.
It's still quick though compared with an equivalent PA28 or 172.

As I understand it, it's only available with the owner's approval.

As for it's flying characteristics, everything said above, but it's a bit 'French' some might say quirky compared to a spam can with
the panel being even more of an ergonomic mess than most aircraft.

One thing, don't forget to leave the flaps down when parked, or somebody'll stand on 'em when getting in!
