I got to fly one of these for half an hour tonight at Popham and what a great little aeroplane. Powerful, fun to fly, very capable and well, fun.
They now have four at Popham for training and I was very impressed. The controls were a little heavy compared to the Rearwin (I loved writing that bit) but it was very easy to control and would not take much getting used to.

Was at Tannheim this year and saw around 40 of them, so nice colours other than white too..

I had a quick fly of a C42 last year, and was also very impressed. Controls are a bit strange, especially the flaps and throttle, although the latter may come naturally 😀
I really liked this aeroplane, biggest problem is staying within the load limits.
