Great and classic aircraft. I believe it was initially meant to compete with the G1 - I had a buddy flying one for Sound Air back in the day and he said it was an amazing aircraft but a mitt full at times and yes don't fly worth a shit when the load shifts but one of the few piston poppers in that class that actually could create an erection -- lmfaooooooo - it's a classic and is right beside the Beech Stagger Wing as the aircraft I always wanted to fly.

Had one of those on the right wing while climbing out of Chino in the HU-16A. When he got tired of SLooooooow flight it was gone.
