An aeroplane that has always intrigued me and recently I had the chance to fly one. VH registered and recently fitted with a new engine following an engine failure and forced landing.
Quite a pleasant little thing to fly and performed better than I thought it would but the throttle was under the seat between your legs! I have seen some strange things in my flying life but this would have to be the strangest.
I suppose once the engine fails, clutching your private parts as one descends through the tree tops is probably not a bad idea.
