    Just one more clarification here: Blue line isn't single engine minimum control airspeed, that would be Vmc or redline. Blue line is Vyse, which is best rate of climb, single engine.

    Bobby from all the Doodle fans out there this is awesmoe. Many sailors are also pilots and many pilots are sailors so I really hope you are back on the trail of Flying Doodles. Thanks from a fellow pilot and sailor.

    You kids are going to cry: T-Craft wet $9.00/hr. I had a boss in the spray business that had an early Baron like that one but he put Duke engines on it. they were TIO-541's. It was a screamer! thanks for the videos!

      Most likely your boss had a B56TC that came from the factory with Duke engines (and the needed structural changes to handle the power).

      Back when my dad got his PPL, he was renting a Cessna 150 for $45 an hour. I’m sure that’s insanely cheap compared to what it is today. Av gas has gotten so expensive now days :(

    Good demo of the Baron's single engine capabilities. I flew a '75 E55 for 27 years and the single engine airwork was always reassuring that if you handled the airplane competently it could get you on the ground safely with an engine out. Lots of good memories flying the Baron all over the eastern U.S. Not to mention OSH multiple times.

    22:07 Blue line is NOT Single engine minimum controllable airspeed.. it’s Single engine BEST RATE of climb.. VYSE. Perhaps on final, you were distracted and answered the wrong question, I’m sure you guys know the difference.

    Well, I watched enough to say this... I LIKE IT! I got my MEL in a Twin Comanche, back in '68, and at that time, it was basically... identify the failed engine and return for landing. I flew a Super G 18 (part 135) in my career, and about a thousand hours hauling the mail in a 402, plus the usual mix of twins. I loved flying a 320, and of course... a Baron or Travelair. Well... anything made by Beech (except a Mouskateer), is pure, quality flying! Of interest... my first airplane that my Dad (WWII and Korean USMC fighter pilot) and I bought... ready for this... a 56TC Baron (serial # TG-2). Talk about a rocket ship!! JUST DON'T WATCH THE FUEL FLOWS, or you'll have a heart attack! I can only imagine what your school cost, but hey... it looks like you're doing it right, and that translates to safe pilots instead of craters in the ground!!

    • @DrJohn493

      Got my multi in a Twin Comanche also in 1975 and years later got to fly a '75 E55 for 27 years as part of my job (Part 91). The TC was fun to fly and sipped fuel but the Baron really spoiled me. With it's long range tanks I could go nonstop from MGM to OSH, that is if I swore off the coffee before a flight like that. I don't miss the thunderstorm and 200 & 1/2 approaches but I do miss the blue sky days from the Baron.

      Hello, Dr John. Good old Montgomery Field... I've landed there MANY times. I was an Army (and then FAA) air traffic controller. Learned to fly (Private, Commercial, Instrument, MEL) at Enterprise Flying Service, outside the gate at Rucker. Got my CFI and II after leaving Alabama. I, too, got my MEL in a TC, N8319Y. (Funny, I saw a listing for sale on a TC this morning, and out of curiosity, pulled up the FAA aircraft registry. The TC I got my license is was last registered in Colorado. It's de-registered now, so it's probably no longer a viable airplane). They are SO nice... comfortable to fly, and with a pair of IO-320s, they'll run forever on a tank of gas. Most of my Baron time is B's, although a few hours in a 'C,' and a few hours in a 56TC. Travelair's are also nice and with O-360s will sip fuel. Nice chatting with you.... @@DrJohn493

    Nice video guys. As always, great production quality. Just out of curiosity, and perhaps I missed it in the actual video, but why shut down the critical engine? Looks like performance-wise, it was a good day so I get that. But you still have 3 people on board, and there's a discernable difference in performance between the two engines. In the unlikely but possible event that the engine didn't restart, one would rather have the critical engine operating than the non-critical. Right? Just curious. Thanks!

  • @LimeyTX

    Not trying to be picky but blue line is best single engined climb speed. Redline is minimum control speed.
    I am sure you know that but for people listening they might not know.

    • @dannymcelroy2624

      Thanks for clarification for all of the viewers. Blue line is Vyse best rate of climb on single engine. We also use blue line as reference for our approach speed. Red line Vmc or minimal control speed. Danny McElroy.

  • @kellytrimble4120
    @kellytrimble4120 11 місяців тому

    Uhhh, at about 22:11, very important for those listening and learning: These guys brain farted, they were talking about 'blue line' and they said it was 'single engine minimum controllable airspeed'. THAT IS NOT CORRECT. Blue line is the Single Engine Best Rate of Climb Speed. There is a difference between the two and it is important to know the distinction.
    One guy probably mispoke, the pilot agreed, but he was on short final and mentally busy, the comment was a distraction to him and he didn't catch the error, and by the time they got to the ground, it was forgotten, so they didn't go back and correct it. I'm not being a hater, its just that there are a lot of newbies and dreamers and wannabes watching these videos trying to save all they can to get a multi rating someday and they are learning all they can from videos like this to get a head start, and a lot of rusty multi pilots watch stuff like this as a refresher, and those folks don't need incorrect instruction drilled in their heads.

    • @davispritchard12
      @davispritchard12 Рік тому +2

      Not really. You’re twice as likely to have an engine failure, and wrongly handled engine failures are much more likely to kill you in a twin. Loss of control and spinning in the direction of the dead engine being the most common. It might give you a warm fuzzy to have a spare engine, but when an engine fails, you're statistically much safer in a single.
      From the NTBS: "NTSB studies have consistently shown that engine-failure crashes in twins are more likely to be fatal than in a single-as much as four times more likely."
      From AOPA: "And when things go wrong-such as in-flight engine failures-history shows piston twins are no safer than afflicted singles. In fact, engine failures that result in accidents are more likely to be fatal in twins."
      Fact. Not opinion.

    Why would you shut down a completely good engine? Practice vmc in the simulator like the airlines do. There’s no reason to take chances in a complex twin like the Baron 58. I understand the need for real world experience, but there’s no reason to take chances in this aircraft!!
