    I love those wing tanks. Not only do you get an absolutely bulletproof fuel level indication, but it looks like you get a pretty good angle of attack indication too.

      Yes on both counts!

    Nice. Imagine being able to fly yourself to work every day. Waving at the gridlock traffic below, giggling.

    This is a beautiful location and airport. Flying from such a strip looks very interesting. For another airport with a similar layout, you'd probably find Falwell Airport, in Lynchburg, Virginia to be equally fascinating.

    Oh my god, C-IJPM, I was the person who painted this Chinook when it was first built, I'm happy to see it in action, great aircraft, enjoy :)

      @@mmatt Thank you, It was actually the first time I painted with the "Endura" paint which was supplied with the kit, My previous experience has always been with Poly Fiber paints. The original owner ( J.P.M. ) was undecided between a Challenger or the Chinook But after taking a demo flight in my Challenger decided on the Chinook ( He is 6'3" tall, and in my Challenger his knees were up close to his chest :) Thanks for the great videos!! Keep up the great work !!

    Always good to a Chinook flying, was wondering does the cockpit stay dry in the rain?

    I’m trying to find plans for a chinook do you know where I can find them, I can’t get ahold of aeroplane manufacturing and I’m pretty sure they’re the only ones building them right now.

    How do you feel about the 912 on a chinook?

    • @mmatt
      @mmatt  4 роки тому

      I have never flown one but I hear that the extra weight located so high up makes them a bit unstable.

      Yes, it has a pretty good glide ratio for a light plane.

    What app were you using to log the flight?

    • @mmatt
      @mmatt  5 років тому

      It's just a generic topographical map app. It's not an aviation based app. It's called Canada Topo Maps. Made by Atlogis. Works great for UL flying.

    Sept. 24, 2012 marked the 100th anniversary of Cecil "Bird Boy" Peoli's take-off from the Charlottetown exhibition grounds. By all accounts it was the first airplane (The Red Devil) to take flight on Prince Edward Island. Who would of thought that a mere 107 years later we’d be watching a flimsily single engine plane flying precariously through the air?
