Friend recently purchase a used Dominator and I had a chance to do it's first flight in Minnesota. Cold with nasty winds but it fly's nice. He's going to love flying this machine. I knew the winds would be a challenge but I keep flying all year long so I'm hoping my skills would be up for it. Too cold for more than one trip around the pattern. I now realize just how much I like the pod on my Dominator. Keeps the wind from blowing right up your pant legs and freezing your..... well you know.

Brrrr ... that DID look COLD! Good-onya for helping a friend out with that check-flight! :yo:
 
You do the same thing I do. I put my feet on the brakes and it drives dad nuts. He says they are heel brakes. I can't use them that way. Btw carry a little more airspeed and the rudder works fine full power off. Nice flight though.
