Great Cyclic

I really like using Robinsons unique cyclic, have used it since 1989 and many thousands of hours. I find it gives great access and useability. I have even used the dual cyclic installed with the pistol grip at 180 degrees facing upwards when operating downwind training an advanced mustering student to give a bit more cabin room and was well able to conduct all operations.
If you look past the unusualness of the cyclic and become at home in the cockpit it performs very well, there are thousands of pilots out there now that dont know any different.
