    Hi Steve, I’m expecting my VL3 in a few months, fingers crossed. It’ll be good to know some other owners in the US. I’ll most likely be based in NY state, at least initially. Good luck with your delivery and transition training.

    Very impressive but it's a lot of money ($350k +/-) for a filly equipped version. Two seat & rotax powered.

    Hi Steve, the VL3 looks really nice, I hope you love it. To me, it looks a LOT like a production variant of a Lancair Legacy (which is my favorite kitplane).

    • @funpilot2
      @funpilot2 Місяць тому

      The Legacy is a great airplane but only for the experienced pilot. Look at my past videos and see what I went through with mine. My minimum speed at any time was 100 kts, below that it is a dangerous plane. If I was 20 years younger I would have kept it.

    The TTX is my Favorite airplane. I was lucky enough to work at the Factory they were made at while they were still in production. I used to get in trouble because I would sit in the cockpit and pretend to fly the thing! Maybe someday I'll get to ride in one.

    Steve, how was your experience so far from ordering , what is an expected time frame if someone was order today? Also. Why VL3 over the TL Sparker, or Ellipse Spirit or others. Just wanted to know because there is so much out there now and as much as I like the VL3 I don’t want to get caught up with the plane that I miss on logic

    • @funpilot2
      @funpilot2 3 місяці тому

      I am not familiar with many other planes. The VL3 is built well and has the fit and finish I want. As for buying one, that is a long story. Soon after I get delivery, I will upload a detailed video about my experience over the last three years. I suggest you try to purchase an in-stock airplane from a VL3 dealer like Gulf States (www.gsairus.com/). It may cost a little more, but it will save a lot of grief!

    Watch directionnal control on takeoff and the gear retract is slow for a Legacy! Give it some, very slight right rudder trim, and don’t forget…Right foot Pressure !Overall acceptably done !

  • @hotdogpaluca
    @hotdogpaluca 6 місяців тому

    Can you comment on the glide of each and the stalls as I got into a conversation over a IV P handling vs the ES . IS the ES wing about the same as the Mako as they're saying the MAko wing is docile and the plane is a lot easier to handle than the IV P. Your comments would be appreciated unless there is a video on this subject .

    is that sound normal for a rotax? sounds like its coming apart

  • @coalblest5094
    @coalblest5094 6 місяців тому

    if those rotax engines are half as good as the V-TWINS rotax makes, its gotta be one of the most reliable and robust engines you can buy for a LSA....
