L-29

[Beaver diver]

Who has any experience with L-29 and what not to do and what's cool?

Thanks

I flew one in New Mexico last year with a training centre- Mrs SMT had gone shopping ( I think she spent more than me that day!). Having flown the YAK-52 before, the cockpit layout was familiar. It rotated at something rediculously slow like 80 knots (still faster than the Harrier, so the world was hurtling past!). Generally very nice to handle although it only cruised at 270 knots- fast enough if you'd not done any other jet flying. Get in one and enjoy it (then fly an L-29 :ok:).
