Good evening all,

Hone yes, you got it bang on, I felt like the thing wanted to swim all over the place, and I will admit got my legs all mixed up, tried an approach when at the end of the flight , but wait for it, Came in sideways like a big girls blouse, did not realise when my pal said give a bootfull of right on power application he meant a HUGE bootfull, also the pedals felt really stiff compared with the B206 and the 44, tried to keep those tiny little balance dials in the centre, after about 90 miles I got the hang of it, but that darn little button on the collective kept beating me, and must also admit I became transfixed on those bloody little dials, but after about 30/40 minutes I was in balance and using different power settings, what a machine, what a day, What a PAL.
