Might be OK for meatbombing, but otherwise it's a bit of a pig really. Great if you like trimming every second you are in it, but it's under-powered, and horrible for IFR flying. 750 is worse from what I hear.
When I learnt to fly, my instructor was kind enough to explain to me that you are not supposed to fly the trim wheel. Was this ever explained to you?

Flew it Brissy to Batchelor, trimmed it twice (had to re-fuel at Isa)
I'll fly with you then Jack BTW you'd have gotten there quicker in a texas turbines machine
