For most of its life, it operated within structured flying school environments, primarily for circuit training, tailwheel endorsements, and aerobatic familiarisation. This meant consistent maintenance. Over the past three to four years it has been privately owned and hangared. In the last two years, the aircraft has been flown mainly for aerobatic training and competition use, entering approximately five competitions, where it has proven to be competive at a high degree, very well-suited to both training and competitive flying. This background makes it an excellent candidate for a flying school, aerobatic instructor, or a private pilot stepping into serious aerobatics. |
