Daunting Types?
My efforts to drum up interest for shares in a Wilga 2000 has prompted an interesting question:
Since the 'usual' group and flying club aircraft tend to be Cessna or Piper offerings we seem to be rather 'catholic' in our tastes (this is true of the USA too I suppose). Does this mean that a signifcant number of pilots - particularly newly qualifed - deliberately avoid flying more unusal types?
Have you ever been somewhat daunted by an aircraft type?
Would you rather not fly types that you have been told are 'tricky'?
I suppose this topic is very broad (good for a debate). It might be an opportunity to debunk some 'type' myths and encourage some of you to have a crack at something a little more interesting?
