One of the very first Taurus owners, Mr. Pierre Sibilia, shares his review of the Taurus after having logged 1000 flight hours.
Hey guys!
As I have already told Ivo, my Taurus nr. 003 has now logged more than 1000 hours of flying time, made during about 300 flights - mostly over southern French Alps, Italy and Switzerland.
I appreciate handling and the controls which are smooth and precise.
When thermaling, I like to slow down the speed below 80km/h in order to reach a much better vertical speed. But when it is time for the transition, the speed must be increased up to 150km/h to reach the optimum glide ratio for cross-country flying.
I like the freedom of self-taxi and self-launch given by the Taurus from both regular airfields and ultralight strips.
The ultimate winner for me is definitely the nomad-style flying I can perform with this incredible machine.
Thanks to the whole staff of Pipistrel for all this pleasure!
