Ikarus Microlight Training Circuits

[@stephenallard2113]

Excellent, thanks for sharing this video. I'm taking lessons with Mainair, flown both ZG and HV but only clocked up 7 hours so far. This will help between lessons.

You're welcome Stephen. It's a fun type to fly eh? Looking forward to getting up in the air again soon.

Nice video. I'm learning in a C42... really helpful for getting a feel for Barton.

Glad you liked it Kev. Hopefully doing more soon.

nice flying! I did this yesterday, there's certainly a lot to do in the circuit. That second stage of flaps is a test of strength too lol.

[@FlyingPodcast]

Thanks James. You're right about the flaps thing, and with your left arm too!

[@irisxlampatsi]

Very nice. But what's the deal with covering the instruments? Is it intented as a way to help develop better "feel" for attitude and speed?

[@FlyingPodcast]

Yes, that's pretty much it. It would come in handy should your instruments fail on approach too!

[@TheCiara3]

Is the flap for just training purposes? The Ikarus rarely needs it.

Best to follow the instructor's directions when undergoing training, eh?
