Thanks for the comments!

And, yes, the attitude indicator IS supposed to look "upside down", so when you pitch up, the gauge will rotate down, and vice versa. I guess there is an alternate way of doing everything...
It's like that on Zlin aircraft as well.
Also, for those that downloaded it, what did you think of the landing gear configuration? Kind of unique as well, with the tail-wheel being in the middle of the plane, rather than the tail, and the mains being so far forward.

I've heard of it. One was based at my local airfield back in the early 1960s.

The official description was a 'reverse tricycle undercarriage'. Can't remember what the idea of it was now.
