Hi guys. Lots of comments re scenery, but what has excited me is the Optica as your first payware aircraft. Am I surprised, no, not really, it fits right in with your scenery philosophy, lets do something different.
Nothing normal about the OA7, it was right out there. Conceived as a ground obs/survey concept, it certainly did that.
I have a lot of history with the Optica, airframe 16 to be precise, G-BMPL.
Hampshire Police in the UK had two, the other one being G-KATY. Sadly that one crashed, and I walked away from the second after the fan disintegrated on take off. The company then folded.
I have hundreds of hours flying as a two crew, me being the Observer.
A quirky aircraft, you must have access to one of at least two that went to Australia, good on you.
The sound is like no other! Good luck with that
I look forward to flying the lightbulb powered by a hairdryer in the near future.
