I think there was actually an earlier piece on the Tecnam in Pilot was which was more of a flight test and less of a trip report, I can't remember but there might have been some more performance figures in it.

Overall I don't find either Pilot or Flyer particularly inspiring although I do often buy them because I find the trip reports quite interesting and although a lot of the flying articles deal with things that firstly PPLs should already be familar with (and if they aren't they should find an instructor not a magazine!) there are sometimes interesting ones from some of the more experienced regular contributers.

The flight tests always seem a bit contrived with not enough critical assessment of aircraft and comparasion with other models.
