Thumbs up

Listen to Stampe, he speak a lot of sense, and he should know about Condors! How's the new aeroplane Alan?

I've got about 50 hours in a Condor, found it to be delightful little aeroplane, much under-rated at the time by the flying club, hence it was bloody cheap to fly! Ok, a bit slow, and a bit short on headroom if you are 6ft+, but hey, what handling!! I've even been barrel-rolled in one by an enthusiastic owner. Reasonable short field performance, and tough as old boots in a crosswind (Unlike a Jodel!!)

And so what if it is a little different when it comes to the stall/spin? I'd rather fly an aeroplane like this that talks to you, rather than one that just flops around like the Cessna 120, which i have also flown. No contest - I'd go for the Condor anyday!
