Spoilt

I have just done my Flight Revue. Couldn't do it in the RV4 as it is not dual control and also instructor not rated for an RV. I did it in a C172, which I havn't flown since 1998. I had forgotten how ponderous they are and the RV has completely spoilt me, as has the Corby Starlet that I fly as well. What a let down it was to have to use both hands to swing that yoke around. Next time i am going to have to find where I can do my revue in an RV.

I just conducted a Flight Review with the owner of a really nice 172. The minimum one-hour flight time was eaten up just getting to a towered airport for some practice. The RV speed and handling does spoil you!

I have an RV-4 and the wife and I have a 182. Talk about different spectrums!
