John,

You said

Quote:

you must have been flying a very poor example of the 206

Perhaps you missed that I had already mentioned that I've flown five or six examples of the 206. Then, you did say

Quote:

All my flying of the 206 series only required wrist movements to control the cyclic

Whereas I said earlier

Quote:

which can be flown, wrist immobile on the leg, small inputs with the fingertips being adequate

So it may be that we are in fact in agreement...

Anyhow, I shall report back in due course.

In the days when I went back and forth, daily, between the 206 & 355

I did notice that the 206 roll input is much quicker than pitch in the type. The A-Spats seem uniform in both axis. After the initial pick-up at change of airframes, and pilot recalibration, not an issue.
