Boscarella,I too, spent a week in Parkes with Robbie. at the time Rob was training out of his roscoe machine powered by a Rotax.Out of a whole weeks training, because the weather was hot and windy (one morning we tryed to beat the heat by getting to the airport before day light... the temp was 34 as the sun came up and the wind sock horizontal) we only managed less than 2 hrs training for the week.In those conditions, Robs machine was marginal, using most of the bitumen to get off the ground and only climbing well over the ploughed paddock over the fence at the end of the strip. Was it good training?, of course it was, It gave me rudementry knowledge of how to fly in crap conditions and somehow it reinforces my earlier statement about flying marginal machines. You are absolutely right in your last post, saying "it is not all about horsepower"! That is the exact point I was making in my earlier post!There is no doubt that you posess a higher skill level and a superior intellect to most of us on this forum, that would explain the obvious distain that you hold for many people who contribute here, its just a pity that while you were acquiring these marvelous skills, that you didnt pay more attention when learning about manners.
