I'm surprised no-one has mentioned the most striking thing (for me) about the aeroplane: the fantastic visibility!

The first time I flew in this aircraft I was continually climbing as I could not get used to just how far below the horizon you need to place the nose (compared with the Piper Archer I was used to) to fly straight and level. Add to this the fact thet the side windows come pretty much down to waist level and you have an excellent view of the world.

Very nice aeroplane!
