Sapphire Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Hi Mark, So what sort of a/c are you researching to buy- Boeing 787, Grasshoopper, Lockheed Blackbird... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markim Posted July 2, 2012 Author Share Posted July 2, 2012 Gday Sapphire Im currantly looking at the Aeropup,as I am 6'3 tall and find a few a/c cramped e.g head hits roof/canopy, legs against dash. Currently fly P92 Tecnam, but out of my price range a jabiru 230 or similar with a rotax would be a good a/c as well i think 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil_S Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 My name is Mark, and I am researching various aircraft with the intention to purchase Hi Mark, I think you will need to be a bit more specific with your essential criteria... otherwise you will risk getting as many opinions as there are people on the forums . eg high wing/low wing; fast or slow; price range; single/two seat; for mainly local or cross-country; plastic fantastic or rag & tube or metal; nose or tail wheel etc Cheers Neil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Drifter Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Get a Drifter, preferably a 582 WB. I am 6'4" won't tell you my weight. My seat is moved back 2". Lots of fun to fly and cheap to buy and maintain. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Drifter Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 I flew mine from Lismore to Holbrook when I bought it. The guys from Boonah have taken theirs to Avalon airshow. It all depends on how much time you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
