November 7, 200619 yr The Beaver is another plane I am comfortable with and I LOVE its water handling characteristics. This plane has a VERY notable "step" when taxiing on water. The Beaver in its own right has a few intricacies about how it handles as well. Namely the prop and throttle settings when in cruise mode and conducting run up procedures on water.The DC-3 is a great aircraft, although I don't quite have as much experience with it. I tend to fly it well and perform most if not all of the functions correctly, however my landings leave much to be desired.Like I said, if you are interested in multiplay shared cockpit and have a mic, let me know. Bush flying is my "forte" so to speak. It is what I enjoy doing the most. A little note about online flying... it can be a TON of fun if you got a good system going on between each other or are in an environment where there is a teacher/learner setup. Sharing the controls via Shift+T is a nice feature as it allows pilots in control to shift control to another person... while at the same time if they are not operating the controls they can operate menial functions of the aircraft such as radios, perform navigation and whatnot. I HIGHLY recommend it, as it adds a whole new atmosphere to flying!
