safety is paramount i def want a safe easy to fly plane, maybe i should re think the rans, sky ranger is ok but a lot more expensive,

now you've got me thinking..

ok after reading the AAIB reports on the rans, it would appear to me that pilot error played a massive part in both accidents, there is no evidence of any blame on the aircraft?

To put it bluntly One was an older guy who's eye site and hearing may not be 100% that coupled with not so quick reaction times may have played a big part in the accident?

The other was a pilot who again was older ish (I'm gonna get it here i can feel it) who was reported to have been slow too progress through his training and appeared to have had no real conversion training etc

Thats the way i read it anyway, and it can not blamed on the rans in my view

Please don't be to sore on me its just my opinion
