I had a GL about five hours into my dual checkout with an instructor when I first bought my plane. It didn't hurt the plane, but it was one hell of a slap in the face (so to speak). Don't be complacent 8O

Eddie, you are correct! When someone moved that training wheel to the rear they did create a monster, but its a pretty good monster :wink: Are you and Mary coming to Galveston in your 170 or the speed demon :?:
