We take a trip from Connecticit (North East US) to Ft Rucker Alabama (South) in the A2A Comanche 250. On our return flight, we catch the eastern side of a low pressure system with a nice tail wind.
Great video! Thank you for posting. My Comanche has been in the back of the hangar for a while, and I've been focusing on the Bonanza, but I've been taking her out more lately. Great airplane!
I'm going to mount a go pro on the next video, maybe shoot a load of landings just for fun. I was using an iPhone for this trip and there is no good place to put it on the dash for takeoffs and landings
Great to see my favourite plane from the sim. It was a pleasure meeting you and the A2A guys at Cosford - such a great day. Still waiting for my A2A cap and t-shirt 😉😂 Take care mate
Great video! And... 03:15 _"...one of the moist dangerous failures you can imagine having"_ Indeed. A few years back one propeller blade broke off from its hub in the very Piper Seneca that I used to fly (PT-KGK). The resulting massive unbalance shook the engine loose from the airframe, and the airplane went down into a lagoon. Sadly, both the instructor and his IFR/multiengine student pilot were killed.
14:02 A major anxiety inducer right there, just dropping the tank filler cap on the filler instead of immediately securing it. My inner Adrian Monk does not approve! :D
They really are one of the sexiest ever made. I was fortunate enough to be brought up in a 63 Comanche that my dad flew all over the country with. Thank you very much for spotlighting your Comanche, it really takes me back. N 8292 P
Nobody else seems to be asking where Episode 1 is. I assume it's really obvious to the smart people out there, so I'll do what I've been doing since high school - nod and smile like I understand everything and just enjoy the ride.
