Sonex Build Project Update
Hi Everyone, here is the update on the progress of my Sonex. I'm taking a break for a little while while life pushes me in different directions. I'm not giving up on the project. I just need to make some tweaks to what I am working on for the moment.

Sonex Aircraft Build Video - 71 Turtledeck Attachment Logic
I tried something similar in a Cessna 152 years ago. Flying solo. Long story short, she made it to 10,200 feet. Not 1 foot more. Nose was still raised a bit in a climb attitude, but flying “level” so to speak. No hypoxia symptoms. Not high enough I guess. That was a fun little flight.
You’re not gonna eat that marshmallow after beeing blasted by kerosene are you ?
I enjoyed your video. Not too many videos on youtube of folks seeing how high their 172 will go.
Were you using Sonex CCC42 rivets in an 1/8 inch hole that you then dimpled?
Pure turbojet
I can’t imagine doing a factory tour and taking delivery as it came off the line. That would be an awesome day.
Lol it pushed the chicken? porocitos lol...lol! They don't call it a Jet _Cat_ for nothin'!
What's the update... Nothing in 2 years
So nice ❤
I LOVE TURBOPROPS
support was amazing - u getting paid???? they did what they were suppose to do nothing more nothing amazing
Ont peut. Lavoir a combien dero
These are really nice! I saw a yellow one the other day at Barnestormers in Williamson, ga.
muy bueno
Awesome video. Its very helpful. Do you have any study material or design document?
How many RPM was the turbine for the following?: 1- Taxi 2- Take off 3- Cruising at 1354mph
Saw your video of the JetCat P200RX engine runup. I assume many are familiar with the SubSonex Jet with the PBJ engine. As I understand it the PBJ engine has very expensive and IMHO, ridiculous and prohibitive maintenance requirements & costs. Looking around I see engines such as the AMT LYNX GAS TURBINE MET 1569 with 300+ lbs of thrust with a more reasonable price and hopefully much more reasonable maintenance requirements. Does anyone here have any thoughts regarding this? TBoone in Texas 0TX1
Very interesting aircraft. What is the status of the aircraft? Was it every repaired? Can't imagine building something for 20 years and then this happening.
Thanks for your video. My Xenos plans call for the 3/64 hole in the hinge. However, I thought it meant to also drill into the pin. Since it is steel, I thought that might be error-prone. Your video just saved me a ton of aggravation.
extremely noisy aircraft
It's great to see my airplane here after all these years.
Looks like it died. RIP
Hi Daniel, your Dad did the conversion on the gear, does he have plans? or did he design himself? I am looking to convert my own.
That's really funny
Hi!. Wind is not a problem outside?
2" of DAWN??? You sure about that ?
Nice vid! Very interesting and informative
How is the family?
hola soy de argentina . interesante la fabrica de Mooney . yo e sido propietario y e volado el primer Mooney que entro al pais "argentina " interesante avion para preperar pilotos . saludos a usted muy atte ..
Very informative, thank you. As a new PPL I was interested in hearing some figures as I hope to own a 172 soon. You just got a new sub and keep up the great content.
Today, you can probably double those numbers.
Any idea what the fuel economy was at that altitude?
Main limitation for flying cross country in a 172 or similar at such a high altitude is the strength of the winds. if it's behind you, great. if it's a decent headwind down low, I woulda thought you'd be practically standing still at those altitudes
More 🔥 eeish
What’s the largest jet have you seen land there?
That ole' girl had to be sucking air up there. I'd be petrified to do that but being a pilot myself, I'd be intrigued to try it too.
How to buy this engine and how much price?
5:01 What is this? Hot shots?! 🤣🤣 That is an epic turbine sir.
I Love this high pitch centrifugal compressor turbojet sound
الذبابة السّريعة شكلها جميل😀 مناسبة تماما للعائلة أوالأصدقاء هنيئا لكم إقظوا أوقات ممتعة نتمنى لكم الحفظ من الله
Great video! I am a student pilot and I know that my first solo flight is coming up soon and I want to get a recording of it. But since I do not own the plane I don't want to stick anything permanent on the ceiling of the plane that I am renting. You mentioned that the mount is very sticky. Do you think it could still be removed without damaging the surface that it is attached to? Thanks!
I just imagine the ceo saying “and these are the only 5 airplanes we produced all year”
Fakest video ive ever seen only a chenook taxis not a blackhawk
Excellent
What about doing it the other way so rivet/aluminium/fibre glass, will the fibre glass hold or crack?
DUMB ASSES!
Future overpriced planes
Just to add to the previous comments, anything 'stinky' will be giving off harmful gases. Being able to vent these away safely is paramount. Cancer really sucks peeps!
What audio setting did you use on gopro? Thank you in advance
Good video
