I have a freind that has one of these planes, he has an OS 46 on the nose. He think he flies the Texan II more then any of his other planes.

He mod the plane by mounting the engine upright. Not exactly sure why he did it, since the OS 46 flies just fine inverted. I've been watching him fly that plane almost every week for just about a year now. I have not seen any bad tendencies while he's flying. I haven't flown it myself, he may just be a really good pilot.

I do plan on getting one after watching his all the time. Looks good, especially the landing, they are nice.
