winsor68 Posted October 13, 2010 Posted October 13, 2010 Added by Winsor68 from the Youtube channel of finitemoment On my first attempt to transition from "crow hops" to making a pass around the field, the engine cut out. It was actually quite interesting how calm and clear-headed I was during the event. Watch for the fence that I had to clear prior to landing...You will see me nose down the plane a second time in order to gain enough speed to clear the fence. http://www.recreationalflying.com/forum/vbtube_show.php?do=tube&tubeid=491&name=engine-out-emergency-landing

facthunter Posted October 13, 2010 Posted October 13, 2010 Two strokes. They have their place. For power to weight they are right up there and for the smaller craft almost the only one available. I have worked on them all my life and if put together and operated properly, go OK. More care required with fuel, pumps filters and carb cleanliness. I wouldn't like to put people off using them entirely. Nev
