Wondered if anyone is currently flying both weight shift and 3 axis a/c ie PA 28 style controls?

Looks good cheap flying for fun on a weight shift, but concerned with the major difference in controls, ie reversed!!

I instruct and would like some relaxed fun flying too, looks a good option if it`s safe to do both. Heard it`s like comparing riding a bike and driving a car? Is that a fair comparison?

Can anyone talk from experience?

Thanks.

Probably get more response in the "Private Flying" forum (two further down in the list).

Oh, I'm not sure about that. Given the number of naughty charters in Senecas and the like, it's only a matter of time before someone is handing out goon suits and helmets to their pax!
