I don't know much about these but we've got one at my home airport that just sits. Absolutely gorgeous condition I think it's the finger pull brakes that have got people freaked out about it. Is this one finger or toe brakes?

It would certainly be nice to have, but think about all the different runways, all the different airports it's just not practical. Most airports, locals have a planned area to try to go for straight out if needed, but if your not a local you probably wouldn't know where the best option would...

Our runway is only 2300 ft with obstacles on both ends so typical time to PPL is 80+ hrs. We've had a few guys get it done quicker but their parents were pilots so a little head start with knowledge.. . I've been to kpou quite a bit, man that's a great place to learn its huge runways. I...

Congratulation Steven!! It's a great thing to pass your check ride and unfortunately only pilots really understand how hard it is and the dedication it takes. Where in NY are you out of? I fly into NY quite a bit. Saratoga, duchess county, occasionally up near rhinebeck. Wow...

Tough crowd around here :yes:

Granted you don't practice slow flight in these , but you learned in a cessna, sundowner or something and you learned slow flight was my point. Every pilot does. I certainly was not making excuses for him at all. That doesn't mean he hadn't slowed before and pulled it off. What I was...

Let's not forget, that we are all taught to fly with the stall, warning blaring during slow flight, so we get the feeling we can handle it if we get slow, just hammer the throttle drop the nose and go! Unfortunately jets engines have lag time, plus, this low dropping the nose for enough...

I don't want to hijack the thread, but has anyone used the sporty's Ipad app? I used it for my PPL and did really well, I got it for IFR as well but haven't started with it yet. Never heard of the sheppard.com from anyone until I came on here, Ill have to check it out.

Melbourne / cocoa is a pretty cool place. great beaches amazing small wave surfing at the airforce base.

great thread guys, I'm a realtor and I see a lot of people buying phantom copters right now. I have a much lower budget one we fly for fun with a go pro, Most people I know fly these at very low altitude but there are some more commercial pilots flying them pretty high. Most aerial photography...

Fwiw ,The latent heat of atomization is what removes heat in the intake tract, it works great on carbureted engines, but much less so with fuel injection. I often wonder why I don't see AFR gauges and wide band O2 sensors in planes, Im guessing The LL fuels. EgT gauges are obviously seen...

Hey fast Eddie I was reading your push rod tube problem and diversion to gabreski the other day , just after my x country to gabreski. That had to be a scary one. I was at 3000 due to clouds at 4000, thinking if this thing quits now Im never making gabreski and that water is 40 degrees or less.

I was going to trade my DC for the Zulu 2 but figured its better to keep it for passengers. If we can get 3 buyers together we can get a discount under $800

Hahaha. Yeah guess the holidays are already getting to me. Lol

Is this a zulu 2 or zulu 1? Site doesn't seem to reflect this deal so far?

Running lean without load on an engine is one thing but upon climb you'd have a lot of load on the engine. Detonation tends to occur under load only. How would you know how much to lean an engine before you put the load on it? I build turbocharged automotive race engines and we run them...
