I only got a few minutes on the stick, rode around in the right seat a bit though. Its only problems I knew of were particular to that aircraft...

Flew like a truck. Manual everything - flaps and trim were on cranks mounted above the pilot's head. Long-stroke extension on the gear, kind of like the L-60 i flew a time or two (Czech copy of the Feisler Storch). It was flying for a few moments before the wheels left the ground.

A nice one, like the one you posted, is on the list of planes to own when I win the lottery.
