nedver had a problme switiching, between the tow. Like many others I would often fly both in the same day, severla times. 350/500/206... what always made me think and a little nervous was getting out of the 500 after a couple of hours, and into the 350. You would lose your sense of spatial awareness....

i get that .. man this spot looks awful small! feeling

With spelling problems like that, it's a small wonder you don't see the difference between clockwise and counter-clockwise rotor systems.....

Are there still two AEF squadrons at Woodvale? I used to fly there with MUAS in the early 80's when they had Chipmunks.

Surely you mean one AEF and two UAS's? There was 10 AEF, MASUAS (was MUAS) and some other outfit whose name escapes me

212man - Re Semantics

Good morning 212man! Or in your case, good afternoon!!
OK, so there are/were two UAS's - It would seem from your note that MUAS became MASUAS (Mancunia and Salford). The other UAS was LUAS (Liverpuddle) together with 10 AEF.
Fit of binger trouble on my part in my forst nite.
