    Is this a scam?

    If you give them your paypal address they send you an email that looks like it's from paypal saying "You just received X amount of dollars for Mary! Click here to login to paypal." They're hoping you click login, which takes you to a fake site that looks like paypal, where you try to login...

    Like New Bose X - Dual GA Plugs

    Purchased as a passenger headset, this X wasn't used frequently at all. Bose is sending me a brand cord/power unit as this previous one was shutting itself off for some reason. The cords will be swapped before I ship the headset. Asking $550 shipped to your door, or local pickup in Louisville, KY.

    Glassair IIRG vs. Lancair 360

    NFW off airport full flap touch down would be at 120, the stall speed on the Glasair III is like 67kts.

    Glassair IIRG vs. Lancair 360

    Less expensive/simpler without. They're available for the legacy and IV/IV-P. http://shop.lancair.com/inventory.asp?CatId={A9C7C7E9-C599-40BA-A8FC-19265D658AC6} Apparently the same ones off the 1999 Piper Malibu.

    Glassair IIRG vs. Lancair 360

    S-turns or an overhead approach are the best way to slow down to land. Come screaming in at 200kts near idle, pull a 2G turn to the downwind and climb about 200 feet you'll be right at gear speed on the perch.

    Glassair IIRG vs. Lancair 360

    Give insurance a call on a IV-P and you'll see why they're not in the same realm as the 320/360 airplanes..

    Glassair IIRG vs. Lancair 360

    I know of a few Glasairs that have attachable wingtip extensions for cross country flying, which would be nice to have. The MK2 tail on the Lancair fixed a little bit of the slow speed handling characteristics. Come across the fence no slower than 90kts, your wheels touch the ground at ~68kts I...

    Glassair IIRG vs. Lancair 360

    This article might scare you a bit: http://www.eaa1000.av.org/fltrpts/lanc360/hq.htm Taxiing takes a bit to get used to with a castering nosewheel and not much forward visibility. Takeoff is a breeze, use full aileron deflection then set the flaps to match the angle of the aileron. Landing is...

    Airplane for this mission

    This. Love all the Lancair/Glasair talk on the forum lately :goofy:

    Glassair IIRG vs. Lancair 360

    They're very comparable and each one is built and equipped differently. They're pretty unforgiving planes but VERY fast and VERY efficient. The Lancair has just a bit more ramp appeal than the Glasair to me.
