[net.aviation] Your First Airplane

kco@rabbit.UUCP (06/06/84)

Obviously, what you want is a real airplane, like the

         AERONCA CHAMPION, Model 7AC 

*It's a taildragger (would you really drive a "tricycle" ?)

*It's hand propped (electric starter = wimp)

*It has tandem seating (real men need the shoulder room)

*It has 3 instruments- speedo, rpm, oil (what's a gyro?)

*No nav-com (follow the roads like you should anyway - get a NORDO for Oshkosh)

*It fabric covered (who wants a Spam can ?)

And remember, the Tri-Pacer is known as the Flying Milk Stool.
