Mike, with an instructor, I don`t think you`ll have any real difficulty with the Avi. It has a pretty deliberate sink rate on final approach and really doesn`t have much of a tendency to balloon at all on landing even if carrying a fair amount of airspeed. You`ll quickly discover when to go to idle on approach so that you won`t be carrying too much speed. I`d bet sooner rather than later you`ll have a good 46 on that bird to replace the 40. You`re gonna` love it!!
