Re: [Titanaircraft] If you started new

Hello, Stephen.  First of all, the Titan Tornado is NOT an ultralight. Many people refer to them that way because they are small and look like one. I flew ultralights for about 13 years before moving on to experimentals, first a Starlight then a RANS S-14 and now my Tornado.  You can fly alongside most spam cans all day long in a Tornado and in many cases outrun them while burning a lot less fuel (depending on your powerplant). If you want to fly slow, drop the flaps about 15-20 degrees or stay with ultralights. Since you are familiar with flying 4 place aircraft, you will need to get used to the "coziness" of a Tornado cockpit.  You basically wear the airplane. Visibility is fantastic and you will most certainly experience the new feeling of flight you are looking for. Good luck!

Hello, I am new to ultralights but experienced in 4 seat certified aircraft. I am looking to do gain new flying experiences and I have been intrigued by the Tital line, particlularly the tornado S. I like to fly local, slow with great visibility. For those experienced ultralighters, what advice would you have if you were starting over. I am thinking about doing the quickbuild route with a rotax 912S and a BRS. What advice would you have?
