Thank you for the informative reply! I also now know what is provided in FF's "profile" view (an option to which I currently do not subscribe).

Current planned route is roughly: KBOI KTWF U42 KPUC KCNY KCEZ KFMN KABQ KLBB KRBD I’m interested in this as well. Curious, what would be the minimal required altitude for this route?

Thank you. In my inexperienced mind, I would enter the upwind and complete a full circle to sequence myself behind the aircraft already in the pattern. I would welcome to hear all the reasons this would not be the proper/ideal approach.

Grim.man, did you mean to say you would have entered the traffic pattern on the UP wind? Honest question. Low time pilot trying to learn.

As a fellow DFW neighbor, I’d be curious how your meeting with VB goes.

Thank you for the quick and deeply informed replies.

Question about mogas compatibility - would it be more accurate to state that certain engines are adaptable for Mogas vs the plane in which the engine is installed? Honest question. Just trying to understand the issue better while minimizing questions.

Best of luck to you sir. I hope you successfully figure it out.

Jesus. Is it me or is the process of obtaining a replacement spinner spectacularly unnecessarily complicated?

Tip of the hat to you sir. May I ask, where are you located?

…and all the PA-32 variants. And it’s shocking to learn (from participants on this thread) that one likely reason is useful load is unknown to the pilot/owner. WTF!?

That never occurred to me. Thank you for the info.

2 recurring issues that cause me to shake my head: Useful load not listed. Bonus points for listings with list of options and features that are multiple pages long but no mention of useful load. Double bonus when aforementioned list includes cigarette lighter USB, sun visor, adjustable seat...

Aspen to Vail. Airport codes are KASE and KEGE (eagle airport near Vail).

I don't see a picture.

Thanks to everyone on this thread for allowing me and others to live vicariously. I really enjoyed it and the maps are beautiful. Mahneuvers, I’m curious as to what you would do differently next time.

Thanks Tantalum! That’s exactly what I was envisioning. A beautiful implementation of center thrust. Sad to hear they never made it. Not a rare outcome unfortunately.

I’m intrigued by the idea of a reimagined and much better designed center thrust GA plane. All of the advantages of a piston twin without the VMC risk. I wonder if such a plane could optionally cruise on one engine (after taking off and climbing on both) to optimize range when desired.

Beautiful setup all the way around. Congratulations. Curious if you could provide a ballpark estimate of the cost to “build” one of this hangars.
