Done about 40 hrs in the 150 airtourer (ZK-DBD) and loved it!
The spade handle yoke in the centre was fun, as was the bungee cord elevator trim that you had to make sure wasn't under tension when you parked the thing.
The resident tech man once remarked after a student returned claiming a heavy landing in the thing..."sonny if there are black marks under the wings above the tyres..THATS a heavy landing"
I seem to recall taking it from Thames to Ruawai to compete in the aeroclub comps...placing a respectable 6th (out of 6 competitors) in the forced landing contest
What a great machine..it was always great fun to try and get my (then) girlfriend along for a ride who was rather heavy up front..and then proceed to bunt the aircraft in the vain attempt to see if I could give her a self-inflicted black eye
