Anyone fly both weightshift/flexi wing and three axis(Pipers/Cessnas)?
Wondered if anyone is currently flying both weight shift and 3 axis a/c ie PA 28 style controls?
Looks good cheap flying for fun on a weight shift, but concerned with the major difference in controls, ie reversed!!
I instruct and would like some relaxed fun flying too, looks a good option if it`s safe to do both. Heard it`s like comparing riding a bike and driving a car? Is that a fair comparison?
Can anyone talk from experience?
Thanks.

Oh, I'm not sure about that. Given the number of naughty charters in Senecas and the like, it's only a matter of time before someone is handing out goon suits and helmets to their pax!
