You must keep trying - you will eventually get your knee down. Don't forget the photo when you do! :niceone:

i'm sure that one would be in the herald on sunday.....

it's only a cessna 152 - takes a bit of pedalling to get it to do aeros well, but it does 'em ok. i'd much rather have one of these.......

it's one of the syndicate shares - not the whole thing. real heavy metal flying it is. can i afford the $250/hr though? (and you guys thought racing bikes was expensive!)
