Did you read the reviews on DealDash?🤬awful!

@jean-matthieuolszensky6213 Год назад

Sorry but that's a scam sponsor. Anybody who will use it will loose money. You are not bidding. You are paying a penny for a chance to pay the final price. An item sold 10$ means there was 1000 bids so the item will be actually sold 20$ (10$ in bids and 10$ final "winner").

The premise of buying anything like this is beyond stupid. Cringier than saying a VPN makes online banking safer.

Go for the Navion. A true classic that has so many STCs available it can be made into anything from a true, faithful to the original to a throughly modern look. Good STOL ability, decent cruise speed, stable IFR platform and looks kind of like a P-51 to boot. There’s also a great support organization in the Navion Society.

I have a friend that I went to flight school with, who is a Marine veteran, and was an airline pilot. He lost his legs in a terrible accident (which obviously ended his airline career), and recently bought an Ercoupe so that he could fly once again.

@KutWrite Год назад

I occasionally maintained the avionics of a beautiful Bellanca owned and flown by a wheelchair-bound attorney. He had some kind of a hand lever to use the rudder and to steer the plane on the ground. He got in & out of that thing like an olympic gymnast.

@aftonline Год назад

That reminds me of Douglas Bader, the British WW2 Spitfire ace who flew with 2 artificial legs. When he got shot down once, one of the legs came off and the Germans who captured him thought he'd lost his original leg in the crash. He had a great sense of humour and played along with them for fun. That was a great book I read as a kid, Reach For The Sky. That was one fighter ace who deserved the title of hero. He not only overcame a massive disability, and fought his own government for the right to fly again, then fought the Luftwaffe in the skies over England during the Battle of Britain.

Save the Navion! You can do so much with those, and there's plenty of parts available. The military used them as the L-17, so you can give it a military paint job or polish it like the Silver Bullet. I was looking for a Navion when I found my Grumman Tiger and decided to get that, but the Navion is still close to my heart!

Jimmy, save the Navion! That one is pretty original, with the updraft cooling (the scoop is below the prop) and the (delaminated) Aeromatic prop. The Aeromatic is an interesting prop, an early attempt at a fully automatic prop pitch control. If you do end up snagging that Navion, let me know; I have parts and info.

@OutkastAdventures Год назад

I've worked on and flew in a 46 Navion years ago. It was fast with the stock engine and prop. Little upgrade to a IO470 and a better prop = rocket ship. You need that plane Jimmy. The early ones were made by the same manufacturer as a p-51.

Save the Navion. Although the other planes are ok, they are boring. There is nothing boring about the Navion. It’s vintage, has a military connection (see military L-17), and is a ramp attraction wherever it goes. There is an incredible Navion community available for support, and parts are available. When your finished, you have something special, not just another production airplane. Plus, “Save the Navion” is catchy. Just the view from my hanger.

NAVION!!!❤❤❤

@RaysDad Год назад

I bought my beloved Navion when it was 5 years out-of-annual, and had the joy of nursing it back to health. The older models (mine is a 1948) are mil spec and chromate-treated, so there was like zero rust on my airframe. I'm almost sure the Navion in the video is chromate-treated because it has the older "grinning mouth" air scoop in front. I had to rebuild virtually everything in my plane made with rubber (carburetor, engine-mounted fuel pump, hydraulic pump, propeller diaphragm, etc.) and most of the seals and gaskets needed replacement. You will need to track down the hydraulic leaks -- The landing gear and flaps are hydraulic. Hopefully the fuel tanks weren't left empty. If you decide to revive the Navion the Sierra Hotel company in St. Paul MN is a great source of shop lore and parts.

@miloswanson9646 4 месяца назад

The Wright Flyer used wing-warping, it did not have ailerons. The wing warping roll axis control was actuated by the pilot's hips! Shift hips one way, and the 'sled' under the pilot pulled the cable to warp the wing.

Save the Navion! It has a military pedigree and was built by North American Aviation. Errol Flynn owned one that is still flying and owned by a guy that flys it out of El Monte airport, which is now called San Gabriel airport.

@techfem50 Год назад

Plus it is hard to stall or put into a spin. Check ✔️ out.

@cubie3835 Год назад

I think the rudder was linked to the roll movement of the yoke, to make entering a spin practically impossible.

@keepitsimpleengineer Год назад

@@johnnunn8688 On the two control version, which was standard, the rudders were coupled to the yoke/ailerons. When I flew one it had a three-control STC with very ineffective rudder control by foot pedals. This was primarily done because the FAA would not allow two-control flight time to be counted as a three-control flight. The crosswind landing technique was to align the flight path with the runway and drop her on, the very rugged main gear was designed to accommodate this. Much fun to fly especially with the canopy retracted.

@WTDoorley Год назад

You may have noticed that the prop and spinner on the Ercoupe (the one without rudder pedals) is angled downward. That's intentional The Ercoupe was designed to be spin-proof. That's why the rudder is tied into the ailerons. The engine and prop are also tilted slightly to delay or prevent a stall. I've never been in one, but it's supposed to be one of the easiest airplanes to fly.

@rogerrabbit80 Год назад

Never been in an Ercoupe, but some years ago happened to run into a group of collectors at a small airport just outside town. 15 or more of them, all flew in, and all flew home afterwards.

@5695q Год назад

Elevator is also limited to keep from putting the wing into a stall plus the landing gear is a trailing link with I believe rubber bushings so you can land with it crabbed into the wind, cutting edge for the late 1930's when it was designed.

They had to fix it on the ground with minimal tools and fly out. I have an Ercoupe like that.
