Flying to SPORTY'S in the CLOUDS 

My home field...and overpriced at sporty's is an understatement! Flown that approach many times.

Your a true pilot. Flying blind ain't a cake walk.!

On your run-up, at the end, you may want to pull the throttle all the way to idle while carb heat is still on. That way you'll know if the engine is likely to continue running while on final approach. I'm sure your wife will enjoy the David Clark headset; they have an excellent warranty! I bought the DC One X for my husband several years ago.They needed some repair about a year after the warranty ended. Still, the DC people were pleasant to work with, and the cost of repair was more than reasonable. I was using the Clarity Aloft (as they don't mess up my hair) for years but recently switched to the Bose A10's. All of them are overpriced as is most things with aviation. When I first started to fly, back in 1971, we had no such luxuries as headsets! haha Keep the content coming and I appreciate the labor of love to do the recording, as well as the editing! I own a Bonanza myself, but if I ever find a reasonable Tri-Pacer, I'll add it to my collection.

I've enjoyed the video you can't imagine. Great job ¡

Hand flying hard IFR in a Tri-Pacer. Nice!

Hi there! Also have '57 Tri-Pacer did my private. Its really cool you have it IFR! Awsome simple videos! keep it up

Great fly. I've been there a couple of times, nice place. Excellent training facilities. Fly safe and God bless

Nice job, I did the same flight a few months ago only VFR ... I actually ran in to you at “Green County” a while back, was good talking to ya, keep the videos coming.

Great airplane David. I’ve owned my 1955 Tripe since 1985 and use it mainly for transportation to Put-in-Bay from Shelby. My residence is on the east side of the Put-in-Bay runway and looks like an air traffic control tower. I know Gary and Jan from the Short Wing Piper Club Buckeye chapter.

Great flight again with lots of detail. Thanks very much. I was able to load your flightplan into Foreflight and load the Approach Plate for RNAV RWY 22. Following that, I replayed the video and followed along, matching your words with locations on the flight plan: I73 FIGPU RNAV (GPS) RWY 22 I69. Also picked up the approach fixes of JERAL, GOSCE, and JEDIX. ATC communication was another big plus. I was PPL-SEL and no instruments, so this was a great lesson for me. Thanks again!

Excited to see this review. I know Bose is the new standard but I’m a sucker for nostalgia and would love to be wearing green when I return to the sky. Grew up very proud of my DCs. Still have my first set. They are pricey but Bose makes enough money selling stereo speakers. Great approach. What a great way to build the instrument hours! 👍

Hey man saw your channel. I am have a 1952 tripacer that I got my private in and built time in. Just thought I would stop by and say awesome channel

Yet another good video with some great shots of the flight. I hope your new purchase works out for you. I've personally never worn the A20 but people seem to say great things about them. Thanks for bringing me along for the ride.

Air traffic controller here. Great great great communications. Textbook

Nice video and some great shots of the IFR conditions. Love the Tri-Pacers. I'm flying my Tri-Pacer to Tennessee tomorrow from N.W. Ohio S24. 😁

Handled that IFR like a boss.

I really enjoy your videos! As I prepare to buy my own Tri Pacer, I look forward to more videos!

Hi David, May i ask u something,i want to buy one from 56,can u give me some advice before i buy it? Thank u i wached almost all ur videos they are great. I love this shortwing aircraft.

May I ask why you have your G5 as a DG? Vs having it setup as an HSI?

is it hard dealing with the plane bouncing and moving around and making the typical corrections you would make if you are not in IMC, but not being able to see out. my dad owned one of these planes in the mid 50's, what is the digital instrument next to the g5? not the radios

David, any chance you could do a video that shows us your panel set up. Looks like a highly capable IFR platform and would love to hear about it.

I have the A20. best headset in the World

Thanks for the awesome video, How do you like the tripacer would you recommend it to new private pilots ?

It was an auction place near Topeka Kansas a tri-pacer out of annual for three years they had the logs they sent me a copy of the logs I couldn't really see much just from two open books on my phone they told me they was no rush to pick it up the storeage was $35 a month I watch the countdown on the final day the winning bid was $10,000 I had plenty of time to put in a bid for $10,050 and would have won that airplane but I live in North Las Vegas Nevada and the airplane was in Kansas I still kind of regret of not buying it for $10,050 dollars I don't remember the engine size but somehow I think it was 180 would that be correct?

You flying IFR without Pitot heat

As someone who works in the Entertainment industry, it has always irked me that Boise, the king of overpriced consumer crap, has come in and swept up the Aviation industry. Especially when Pro Audio vendors like Beyerdynamic and Sennheiser made better products, but got pushed out by Boise simpley because not many outside of the Entertainment industry are familiar with Pro Audio brands. If I ever get back to flight training, I'm definitely going to look at getting a used Beyerdynamic HS 600 or Sennheiser HMEC 250. I'm definitely now interested to see your review, to see how Boise compares to David Clark.
