I never looked back. There is a reason this airplane is sought after. Everyone in my family has enjoyed the smooth and predictable aerobics as well as the joy that comes from sightseeing with incredible views! Unfortunately, life’s changes has placed me in the position of having to let her go… The roll rate with spades is nice.. as well as the landings.. All we had left is smiles.
