Default RE: 91" Cap

Absolutely not, it's now my favorite of the smaller planes.

I was just lamenting the fact that there are people in this world/hobby who cannot get past some bogus rumor from unknown third parties about some plane's handling, and they will not accept any vendor's word about stuff.

This happened with the Giles too, people would call up and refuse to even listen about the Giles because they heard somewhere from somebody they don't remember that Giles are all very snappy. Oddly enough we sold a few hundred of them and never had a single complaint about this from any customer, only complaints from the knuckleheads who refused to listen or try one.

I talk to people every day now who tell me "I don't like Caps, they are snappy and hard to land". Of course none of these people has flown our Cap, most have never flown any Cap, but doggone it they are certain about this.

So the Cap will take a while to establish itself as a much better combination plane than any Yak. But it's coming, wait until we get a few flight reports.

You wanna do one Ben?
