Does it have to be the Pa28?

Hi T10,

Does your 'significant other' have to train in the Pa28? I should have thought there were several other types around in which she would be at much less of a disadvantage.

For example, she may be better off in the C152, although she might still need a back cushion. It has a small cockpit, the flaps are electric and everything is operated from the instrument panel.

I see you are in Wiltshire, so Old Sarum should be within easy reach of you. I believe they bought Technam Sierras and they used to have access to a Sky Arrow, both of which may be worth a try.

Broomstick.
