Flight Design CT

Hey everyone,

I know that this isn't exactly a back country aircraft (although I have seen one at JC), but I was wondering if anyone on the site has any experience in a CT. Our flying club is looking at purchasing one as a replacement for our aging, high time 172. I figured that with as a diverse group that we have here, that maybe someone has had the chance to fly one, or know of someone that has.

Thanks,
Cory

Re: Flight Design CT

I have close to 200 hours in a CTSW. Can't say enough good things about it. Very capable long range, comfortable plane. Stick and rudder skills are important as it is very light on the controls. Sold my share in one a couple of months ago to purchase a Rans S7 (just had to own a taildrager). You can contact me if you have any questions.

Re: Flight Design CT

Thanks Magnet. That is good to hear and I'll probably take you up on the offer to contact you. I need to find one locally to check out. Worst case, I'll get somewhere to got one at a dealer.

Re: Flight Design CT

Hey that might work. Whose is it? As soon as I know where we are headed, I'll see if that is an option.

Thanks Terry!
