Hi. Maybe make another thread and put 'Lightwing' in the title?

Hi and welcome Keen2fly! 098_welcome.gif.81ff07d492568199326e4f64f78d7bc6.gif

I learned and earned my RPC and endorsements in Lightwings, the GR912 Nosewheel version. I like them. This is one of the Lightwings I flew, operated by Coominya Flight Training:

I ended up buying a Jabiru for the extra speed and endurance. But it handles a lot like the Lightwings in my opinion, with a little less rudder authority.

Wow!! I've never seen a nose lightwing. Was this a modified version?

No, it is a factory built one, 55 registered, he has a 24 registered one as well. They were still available up to not that long ago.

Ah righteo , I've learnt in a nose wheel and am venturing into the world of tail dragger flying.
