Bus, when you 'lost' your prop, was there any asymmetric effect?

Ach, BEagle - schon!

May I, at this point, say how much I enjoy this exercise?
The only thing that would make it better on an afternoon like this (I'm in the Nordic regions and it it is currently raining/snowing and +0.5C) would be sitting in a pub 'round a table with you lot doing the same thing face to face. It would be even better if it were your round, BEagle!
Bit long-winded but you know what I mean.

BEagle - I'm a veggie, so it's sun-dried toms.
Your go...

How do they dry tomatoes up there at this time of year?

OK - With my one engine I could take off with 1 pilot and 4 passengers in less than 100 yards. And no, I'm not a space shuttle!

..and I used to do it over 50 years ago!
