The Bulldog may not have had the excess power of the T260 or even the Tutor, and it could bite if you didn't fly the spin recovery correctly, but it handled like a military aeroplane - solid, tight, not at all sloppy, could be smacked down like a jet. Unlike the thinly-disguised-motor-glider Tutor, with its flimsy undercart and dreadfully lethargic roll rate (unless flicked, of course - a very useful skill in all other military aircraft
). The old 'Dog was a superior EFT machine IMHO.
