    Honest reporting on electric airplanes

    Familiar enough to know I can only use up to b-20 in a 2018. That's still 80% regular diesel. And if I can find it it's more expensive.

    Flamping... Sort of

    I've slept in both, Twin beech and DC3, neither let you have good rest, the C54/DC4 is much better, and you can bring more friends.

    Complex/High Performance aircraft questions

    When I was flying a jump plane 182 many years ago, I remember at 500 feet reducing rpm by 100. But, throttle stayed wide open till altitude was reached usually 7500 feet.
