Sternone, please make sure the tech has a thorough check of the carb before you fly next time. As for me, I think that I became a bit too worried last time when the CFI told me that he would like to see this plane gone...

wsmempson and ShyTorque are just paid members of my fan group, it makes PPrune loads of fun!


backpacker: the roll/yaw scenario I was reffering to in my previous post was something different than just an empty RHS. Last time I took off (solo indeed), as soon as the plane was off the ground it just started banking quite strongly to the left. I've never had that before and it made for quite a hair raising experience where at about 400ft I was waaaaaaaaay to the left of the runway even with a wind from the left! Left the circuit and had to fly with constant heavy foot on the right rudder. Made for an interesting landing also. (sorry Sternone, don't mean to hijack this thread..)
