Re: reducing throttle after take-off - IO-520

It’s not rocket science.

25/23 respectively squared and cross checked by FF. Is the engine GAMI’ed?

Appreciate the input!
I bet you have and with that kind of mindset, I’ve no doubt that you’ll find a fixed wing gig pretty soon if that’s what you really want.

Re: MPL nonsense

Yes it does, with x amount of commitment (bond) if successful. Except unlike Canada, you get to fly a 320 or 737 for a proper airine, and get to upgrade to left seat once you unfreeze your ATPL (no need to bomb in a C150 doing circuits to build your PIC to be "worthy") Entitled much?

Re: Floatplane Crash Thread

Entb, You’ve brought some great points to the discussion. In my experience it’s always preferable to start any seaplane at the dock if able. Since you mentioned a thread drift…. The 208 will produce almost 40 ft-pounds of thrust from the right side exhaust. No bueno when docked on the left float and...

Re: Cessna 180 on floats

Owned a 57’ 180A operated on 2870’s for over a decade.

Helped give a buddy of mine his float rating on his 180 which was kitted out on almost brand new PK 3000’s last summer.

I was immediately sold. Flat tops, big hatches and very very forgiving…. but yikes! They are expensive.

All the best,
