The airplane flies so well I took it up without any transition training. I always think - what would the Wright brothers have done? I'm a CFI and can give you training if you'd like to hop to FL in your Zenith. You can park it in my hangar, spend two days and we'll go fly 3-4 times. My RV is CS prop, but we can set it for a set RPM and simulate a FP prop - sort of. Mine has 210 HP so the power will be a little more, but the 180 is a strong engine, so the difference should be noticed only in the takeoff distance and climb. And with two people on board, we will be a little closer to your airplane solo. But, if you can handle my airplane, you will for sure be able to handle yours. I will put you in the rear seat for first flight and front seat for remainder. You pay for fuel. Otherwise no cost. Let me know if interested.

I no longer have an 8a, just an 8. 8a is very easy airplane to fly.
