My ab- initio training was in the Chippy and I'm sure the mixture is fully rich when in the forward position. Khamsin has the lever fully rearward for rich.(or is my file corrupted?). Also there are no calibration markings on the trim wheel. the take off settings were "2 notches into the white". And finally,we could fly with the canopy open to about elbow position from where it could be closed easily.This made it possible to taxi with your head out ,especially when in a queue on a busy Sunday when the line was stopping and starting,but, with the present situation, the canopy fully rearward would risk losing the canopy entirely,and,of course being unable to close canopy when carrying out pre landing checks. Otherwise, I find the model is quite realistic and has all of the habits and behaviour that I remember from the early 60's.
