Hello, I am watching your videos from Turkey. Amateur aviation is not very developed here, it is very enjoyable to watch your videos, congratulations.

Hi, thanks a lot and greetings to Turkey :)
What a stunningly beautiful bird. Based on your cruise speed you quickly you moved faster that our light sport regulations allow. (USA ,) not that I could afford the beautiful plane)

beautiful airplane, bravo !! But side stick sucs, sometimes you need right hand to write something or to do something with right hand and you can't. It would be perfect if had stick in center. And the price over 200'00$ far to much ;(

Autopilot will assist you here to write something down. I was surprised how comfy the stick is. In calm air, Shark is so stable that it literally fly by itself :) It is not cheap plane but overall quality and feeling is worth the money.
Try putting 3M vibration absorption tape on the inside of the hull
Since your largest market for this plane is going to be the U.S. and the U.K., I suggest you knock off the metric and use plain old miles per hour. Metric has it's place, especially when dealing with close distances or tolerances, but for distance/quantity/rate please use "normal" measurements. It saves having to grab a calculator whenever a value is given in metric.

I read comment like this very often also on the Shark channel. Many people mainly from US behave like the imperial units would be the only one in the world. Guess what - it is not. We commonly use metric units for flying and it is totally "normal" for European pilots.

@@FLYINGADDICTed Imperial units are for Canada and perhaps Australia. Knots and nautical miles are for boats, not planes. Check some history. Inches, feet and miles are for normal use among those who have the largest economy on the planet (where planes are sold) and where the aircraft was officially invented (although I know that's only very partially true).

@@mikestirewalt5193 You have very nicely described all the mess that should belong to history. Now we have SI units, meters and all higher units by simply multiplying by ten. No crazy "US" constants to convert values between different units. Throw your clutter in the bin and welcome the 21st century with simple, logical and straightforward SI units on the ground, air, sea or space..
