SIEGIFRIED HEER GIVES US A LOOK AT THE FIRST ROTAX 912 POWERED AIRCRAFT!
This has to be one of the most interesting and totally off script interviews yet. I love Siegi! I am not kidding when I say he has to m=be one of the smartest people I know, but so humble. His passion and dedication to all things flying knows no bounds. So when you get a chance to go to Wels, Austria, be sure to stop by the Flying Club there and spend some time flying some Rotax history!

The start of a really quick series asking the simple question - Why Rotax? You hear the hype, but we wanted to hear from the owners themselves. Charl had just flown his S1 Outbound from Canada to Oshkosh for the first time. We were also blessed to be able to have a longer more detailed video about his baby - so stay tuned for that.

The aircraft you are looking at is about 20 years old. It has been Dan's passion (yes he has other aircraft as well) and pride for all that time. During the installation and in they year's that followed, the aircraft has evolved. It now is now simplified, strengthened and has some unexpected features. In our opinion this is the ultimate way to start flying and experience all they joy and freedo...

      The 9’s high(er) aspect ratio wing is the only one that can fly high enough to really take advantage of the turbo for better TAS.

      @timduncan8450 3 місяці тому

      @@k5sss Altitude/climb is a function of excess energy, so more than just airframe eff. The long wing is nice but not a driver. My pt was the Vne of the 9 is 20kts lower TAS. So not ideal.

    I can see right now, that just like the Cessna 177 Cardinal, there will need to be 'braces' on the doors to prevent the wind from blowing the doors open too quickly and damaging the frames and forword skin of the plane. Hope this gets addressed asap.

    @johngallagher912 5 місяців тому

    When you interview someone about his plane, Instead of spending almost all of the time filming him, spend a lot of of the time that he is talking viewing the aircraft from all angles. In this video we got about 13 minutes seeing him talking and you never got around to really showing the outside of the aircraft. It isn't about making the company representative a star. It's about showing the aircraft. One example of this is the horizontal tail surfaces. They seemed to be angled downward unless this is just an optical illusion. This is a very unusual aspect of the design. If you did a walkaround, he could have discussed this.
