Last night I mentioned that I didn't think there was a big difference in flying a KR and a C-150. I'll agree with Mark Jones that things happen a little faster....for example, I do a complete pattern in 2 minutes when I'm doing touch and goes (did 12 yesterday). I was climbing out yesterday and a Mooney in the pattern told me to "go ahead...you look to be a lot faster than me". I had to smile at that one! But having said that, that's not a huge adjustment. I had trouble landing on my first few flights because my ASI was off by a mile and I was trying to land at 100 mph or so. Now that I can fly the thing, I only get nervous with a 20+ mph gusty crosswind, and I think if I had tri-gear, that number would go up considerably. I have to admit that if I didn't have a speed brake (split flap), things would be a lot more interesting!
Jones asked me about the rest of that tri-gear sentence that I wrote last night, but to tell you the truth, I can't remember what it was now. It was funny though, whatever it was...
