So much fuss. I was just sitting there, doing my run up in the Skyhawk when the Caravan backed right into me. I honked and flashed my lights, but to no avail. Stupid Caravan drivers never check their wing mirrors.
Personally I wouldn't hang my handbag from those knob thingies on the dash? It might swing and break my kneecap. I put it safely on the floor. There are foot pedals down there, but I never need to use them, as my engine works perfectly. Keeps turning even when there's a Caravan on the prop.
