I’m rather cynical and think there is a chapter to this seller/plane that is unheard. For a prebuy, the worst option is having the guy who has been working on it for years doing the prebuy. What’s he gonna do, dime himself out? OP. Look at it from a business perspective like buying a...

liability, pure and simple.

I’ve been using one for two years on the same batteries. I changed them just because recently.

Sounds to me like you have been underpaying for years.

Buy an O2D2. Turn it on when you want to. It doesn’t flow when it’s off.

The problem is they can here the speed brakes when you key up.

Make the buckets come out while still 20ft AGL.

He flies a Raptor.

Coleslaw.. what if the pilot is entering on a left 45 for the right teardrop to right downwind with coleslaw in sight? I think some of you guys would depart the area, any traffic advise with a last call for the option.

Does having it on ForeFlight count? Seems to work for traffic.

Well, if we are going to argue semantics, it is the sudden impact with the ground that kills. What leads up to that point is the subject of argument though.

The OH break just killed a lady at Patty Wagstaffs airport in an Extra 300 this week. Speculation is she G-locked and augered in while in the pattern. We get ALOT of pilot mill traffic at my airport from ERAU and ATP. The tear drop is definitely being used by these large organizations.

You guys are using words I’ve never heard of. I take it you really like FLYING Magazine as such.

It's zero % of my budget. I've been in the shop for just under a year now. The loan note, insurance and Hangar rent have remained the same though, so there is that.

My Turbo would see 430 by the time I was at pattern altitude. Step climbs were mandatory during the summer till I could find cool air. If I could ever get my ride out of the avionics bay, I could tell you how it does with the TurboPlus kit. Between the intercooler upgrade and the G3X/GFC 500...

I see we are from the same generation. I didn’t think anyone would have picked up on my reference!:ohsnap:
