A T.U.F. VIEW
The T Bird 11 cabin is 42 inches wide, with good visibility to the front
and side. Control pressures are fairly stiff as teleflex cables are used
to operate all control systems. The cabin noise at cruise is above
average.
With the 582 Rotax cruise is 65/75
mph climb at gross 900 feet per minute with stall flaps extended 40 mph.
Despite its large wing area this is one puppy that I wouldn't want to
loose and engine on again. It glides like a rock.
