Unless you want to rely on a computer for control?

Some like a Tomahawk are hard to get uncontrollable but once you have managed it you will CBD (crash burn die)

Like most gutless civil trainers I suppose. I learnt to fly in a cessna 150 and 152 they might well be more underpowered than the Piper. You sure hoped for more POWER taking off from a high place on a hot day with pax. Never been or will fly in a tomahawk.

815737 2009-10-01 02:10:00 It looks pretty good to me.
I can just imagine us ordering some ! we might be able to afford a model of one !
I always wonder why those things are so dear !
Surely if you have the fuselage and wings of a civil airliner, and engines, all you need do is add a back door and take out the seats and carpet.
