Seems to me that if the "book" says the factory built aircraft stalls at 43knots at 550kgs at best glide speed...and it actually stalls at 52 knots at that weight which incidentally is 100 kgs over factory tested maximum weight... Then someone needs an arse kicking.

Russia has combined his two talents. Online gaming and an amazing talent for displaying firepower. Bloody well made little movie... -
Because Scotty.. It takes 3000 hours and the an extensive workshop...and an expensive hanger.

Especially if you could spin em up like a gyro...

Th They all occured...none were "accidents" in the literal sense of the word. All were preventable. I agree we won't logically achieve 100% safety but to not try is criminal in my books. How would you feel sending your kids to work for an employer whose policy was to accept a fatality on his workplace as normal...

Check out this new Sam Ls ...its like a baby Yak/Chang with a bit of Chipmunk. http://www.eaa.org/news/2013/2013-03-06_SAM-LS-makes-first-flight.asp

For that matter does anyone recall the 60minutes story on Dave Sykes who recently flew a Trike from England to Australia unaided and paraplegic? I must have missed that one.
-
Good on him. But IMO hardly something to get too excited about. At least he got some coverage although of a rather low standard in typical 60 minutes style. Did anyone see the cancer breakthrough story before hand? Sort of made the 19 year olds story seem like a bit shallow.

We are... actually.

Stupid is as stupid does.

Its been sitting there for a while by the look of it.

I would never have thought you would be able to get that kind of speed out of a trike...

Welcome Dave. The Isa has a long aviation history.

The new Aircraft Showcases function in the site looks awesome... Just need some aerogeeks to create pages...

You could run one engine hard in cruise and shut the other down perhaps...sort of like carrying a spare engine...

I too reckon the central stick is generally the superior cockpit configuration.

There are some great small industrial motors with aero potential. Single seat suitable only...

If its "welfare" that makes people act feral Australian boardrooms at the big end of town must be dangerous places...

How about the SiroccoNG....4 stroke too ...http://www.acla.eu/aircraft.html

I reckon people are reading the market incorrectly here... If Recreational Flying is to become a truly popular past time/hobby for the larger audience including younger people (rather then only the self funded retiree/highly paid executive/miner etc etc as most are who fly now...lets face it) then these sort of machines if certified for hire from schools could have a real future... I reckon what you want is a sub $40K fly away price to make them economical to hire at say $80 per hour...single seat and suitable for fledgling pilots ...20 hours dual should see most students in a single seater doing a circuits and building experience ... I think there is a huge untapped market out there waiting to be exploited...

Hi Adam... It appears that you certainly got thrown to the wolves...
