I finally got to take my Grandson for a Piet Flight. He was Two in January. Mydaughter carried him in one of those Kangaroo Pouch things. It worked out verywell and he didn't want to get out. It was a good day.--------Scott LiefeldFlying N11MS since March 1972Steel TubeC-85-12Wire WheelsBrodhead in 1996Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ttachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/zach ... __________

Gardiner,No argument there. The toe dance applies to all all airplanes with the little wheel in the back. But, you also have a gozillian hours vs someone that has 2. I think in that situation it is a good idea to get at least some time in a similar configuration. I know it made my transition easier to go from a Cub to the Piet.Best,-john-John HofmannVice-President, Information TechnologyThe Rees Group, Inc.2424 American LaneMadison, WI 53704Phone: 608.443.2468 ext 150Fax: 608.443.2474Email: jhofmann(at)reesgroupinc.comOn May 14, 2013, at 2:13 PM, airlion2(at)gmail.com wrote:> Hi all .
