Pontius Nav (#84),

Yes, I suppose that was the official thinking. But when it comes to asymmetric handing, and never having flown an Oxford (or any other twin except the Meteor), would suppose that it would be as a pussycat to a sabre-tooth tiger !

The accident figures for the Meteor in the early fifties bear out the point. Oxford or no Oxford, the Meteor was a hand (or rather leg) ful for anyone, and too much for some !
