Say again Slowly:

I very much agree with your comment, should we both take niknak behind the bike sheds for a chat?!

Go somewhere appropriate, at one time that could mean no end of military airfields where you could feel confident of a good service and a good beer afterwards.

Silverknapper, yes 'twas a single, would have done the same in a twin. However the important thing is to decide what and where are your best options at the time, what sort of gear, how it retracts (if it's partially up/down). High wing with narrow round fuselage, then it will more than likely roll onto a wing tip at some point.

Most importantly fly the aeroplane all the way, don't give up six feet above the ground. Then enjoy the beer afterwards.
