I find it refreshing to see an airplane that is not all digital and glass screened. Perfect for VFR.
@mothmagic1
@mothmagic1 Год назад
Doesn't have all the bells and whistles but has all you need for VFR flying. Who could ask for more. The less tech there is in it the less there is to go wrong which is always good.

Myself and my Stepdad used to fly one in central Texas, down close Columbus Tx. We’d fly into Houston and back every day just about for work we were doing down there. This was back in 81, I had just got out of the Navy. He was a instructor and he was teaching me how to fly. We just lost him in 2021 to a blown out heart. This brings back some great memories thank you for that, was a great plane and a better man than I could ever be. God bless.

Very well maintained tri-pacer. Purchased a 1956 PA-22-150 in 1977, put almost 400 hrs on it, was a very good back country flyer . Seeing this brings back memories.

My Dad used to have a share in one of those. I always loved flying it with my Dad after I got my pilot's license through Air Cadets. I always liked coming into land high on approach and side slip her in for landing. (This always makes my Dad uncomfortable when I do this! ..lol He prefers the 'normal' approach for landing!) Loved her short stubby wings. Yours looks very well maintained. Thanks for the show. Keep her straight and level. Kalvin, New Brunswick, Canada

First passenger flight was in a '57 Tri-Pacer N5409D bought new by my uncle in Midland TX. He went on to buy three new Pipers (a Comanche, a Super Cub and one of the first Cherokee 140s) and inspired a love of aviation. I went on to become an FAA ASEL pilot @ 18 and also an A&P in the late 70s.

@Keys879
@Keys879 2 года назад
Looking to buy a pacer now, and just watching your video gets my psyched. However a piece of advice from an A&P. If you haven't flown her in a while, remove top plugs and roll the starter for about a minute, this lubes up the cylinders without compression. The aircraft won't start of course, but when you put the plugs back in, start her up, and go fly; you won't be starting a dry motor under load. It will help prolong the life of your motor considerably if its' an occasional flyer.

@emergencylowmaneuvering7350
Better turn that motor not on cold temps or do it in warmest temp for the week. Cold oil dont flow well. Will you get oil pressure at the only 250 rpm +/- that you will get when battery is not used much? Did you get that oil to flow well ? I dont think so.. I start my motos and BMW's garaged things only on the warmest temp of the week. Never on colder days..

In about 1959 or so, my family (dad and brothers) were well into General Aviation. They bought a nearly new Tripacer of very similar color in Dallas. I can't help but wonder if you would have any way of knowing if your beautiful Tripacer was ever owned by Joe, Jack or Bill Wallace in Dallas (all deceased now). Brings back wonderful memories. We stopped flying after my parent's divorced and I never got my license. But my son now owns and flies a Piper Arrow, P28R and I love flying it. - GeezerWheels ("Ray" in SW Colorado).

Actually, one more... Was WHITE ROCK AERO SERVICE a previous owner. One of my uncles, William Robert Wallacer (Bill) was the owner/operator of WHITE ROCK AERO SERVICE. It could have been listed in that name. When Bill retired from Braniff (747 Captain) he opened another aero service at the airport in Terrrell, TX. His shop was just north of the WWII Glider Museum. If it too much trouble or takes too much Tim, don't worry about it. Just curious. Thanks.

Great airplane but do not get complacent. A friend of mine along with his wife and son died in a stall/spin. The aircraft was at Max gross and wind light and variable. Temp around 95F at an elevation of approximately 1000. They perform really well for what they are but low to the ground when they’re done flying, you and the occupants are done as well.
