Pilot Pete Posted November 15, 2009 Author Share Posted November 15, 2009 Yeah, it is a twin engine, twin prop job and looks to be about 2/2.5 meters long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazza 38 Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Hi all, Where does the Cri-Cri stand as far as RAAus registration is concerned. From memory, i read some where years ago, No, apart from having one prop to many, the wing loading is way to high. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Maj Millard Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I can tell you personally as can Ozzie I'm sure, that it is no damn harder flying an UL twin Vs a single. Just twice the fun............I'm sure the Cri-Cri would be no big deal either because the engines are so close in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilot Pete Posted November 16, 2009 Author Share Posted November 16, 2009 So I take it a Cri-Cri is out unless it is VH registered and you have a twin engine rating on a PPL license. Its a pity because they are nice and small, relitively cheap to build and have a decent stall speed due to Junkers style flaps/flaperons and get along at a pretty good pace on nothing better then a pair of glorified lawnmower engines.

Guest ozzie Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Toss the two strokes and fit the small RC turbines. flys better and more reliable. yep has to be VH rego just another peckerhead example of our STUPID system. Is that a Scottish Pioneer in that photo. Ozzie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slartibartfast Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Is that a Scottish Pioneer in that photo. Well spotted Ozzie. Scottish Aviation Twin Pioneer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A few more photos here. The Cri-Cri made for a beautiful contrast parked underneath it.
