Oooh, yes, Kulula... fun stuff.

I just wish someone would roll the This Way Up one... and someone would be around with a camera :D

I give that landing a 9 . . . on the Richter scale.

Are you that small or is the Cessna that big, Mike? :)

I have to admit I have never seen a Centurion (it is a Centurion, right?) up close and personal... but the look of the picture tells me that with this model, the Cessna forehead is nowhere near as big a problem as with venerable 172...

actually, it's a Cessna 175 (old school, 1954) with the Lycoming O-360 conversion (taking out the old geared engine which wasn't popular...mostly due to the fact it quit all the time) and a STOL kit.
I's bigger than a 172 but smaller than a Centurion....

I'm 5'7" . . . not that tall.....

Oh gosh! No, Mike I hadn't!! :) :) That's gorgeous!
What happens to the pilot? Does he have to fight against any... "Chuck influence"?  :) :)

BTW, I flew some days ago with the HB PEH and I was impressed to discover that - somehow - flying is like riding a bike (when I was told that, I couldn't believe). Even though a lot of time had passed since my last flight, I could still manage without any issue... :)
Just hope to be able to begin flying again soon with better frequencies...
