Backpacker,
Thank you for taking the time to write such a comprehensive response
We are looking at training upto 100 airline cadets per year and a new school is offering the DA40 as opposed to the other candidate school with its C172 and Archers.
I would presume that due to our summer temperatures, the Thielert 2.0 is the minimum requirement.
What is your experience with the aircrafts reliability?
