Hi,

Currently Flying or have flown in the last 6 months

Cessna 150/152/Aerobat
PA28-180R
PA-34 (Seneca 1)
PA-44 (Turbo Seminole with no anti icing!?!)
PA38-112
PA28-140
PA28-161
PA28-181

On the Cessna/Piper debate, no contest in my opinion .. Cessna 150/152 is too small (from a cabin point of view), underpowered and too slow so that if theres any kind of wind at all it takes donkeys years to get anywhere. It also doesnt inspire confidence in nervous students/pax.. maybe its acase of being very tinny and high wing. Aslo the visibility out of a cessna is awful.. cant see where you're going in a turn!
Give me a Piper anyday (140/161/181 excellent training platforms)(with the exception of the Traumahawk which I always feel is taking me to the scene of the accident!!!)

Want to Fly:

Anything like Firefly 260 or aerobatic machine!!

C150
C172
PA28
PA38
R2160
Jabiru

Funnily enough, favourite type is a toss up between the PA38 and the Jab, the 2 types that are the least spiffy (avionics, fitout etc) of them all.

Currently on a C-152... affordable and fun... once you get used to the wings blocking the view...transparent wings would be a nice finishing touch... The absence of them wouldn't be. :eek:

PA28 - 161 - The source of my PPL
PA28 - 180 RG
C 172

Being in the right place at the right time has got me the spare seat on the following assortment in the order of remembering them.


C 177 RG cardinal
C 182
Allouette 111
R 22
Cessna 208 caravan
Harvard/ Texan T6... whichever you prefer
Beech Baron
Beech Bonanza
Kingair 90
Cessna 402

It's a modest list but I am pleased with it... :D
