I might be heading off on a slight tangent here boys, but while we've got all the "12 experts" here together...................
I was told recently (by an ex-RFDS '12 endorsed expert) that provides for a pretty rugged ride in turbulence and is enough of a handful in IMC such that it is rarely hand flown unless it can't be helped. It was mentioned that this was due to its wing loading!
This seems to be in stark contrast to the posts in this thread.
What are the thought of posters here? Can anyone verify/confirm these comments? What is it like to fly?
Thanks in advance lads
