Loved every experience:-
Baron
Good solid and reliable Beach.
BE200
Big baron but burns kero absolutely loved its flexibility.
PA31
350 was nice but you needed a good ginger beer, the under carriage rigging could generate some concerning moments.
FK27
Loved the fact that it was all pilot driven. It was really air driven, manual fuel trimmers, and you gotta love the prop system. High aspect wing and cable controls taught you a lot about anticipating the delay to an input.
FK50
Nice, A bit of glass and a modified wing.
B767
Out of anything I have flown this rates highest. Awesome power, roll rates approaching fighter rates and when you got the wheels on the ground could stop in about 600m. 330kts to 10nm? No worries and still would be stable at 1000’ Up and down the East coast or 12 hours to SHA. Loved flying it into / out of Hamilton Is. (1700m Water at each end!)
Auster / Tiger moth
Nothing like still flying at 30kts and trying to land !
PA38 / C150/2
Preferred the Axe. When it stalled it stalled! Not just mushed, taught me and the student a bit of respect for aerodynamics !
