Piper Tomahawk PA-38-112
Lovely flight! That's my favorite time to fly - just as the lights of night start coming on. Well done and thanks for posting. (T-hawk owner.)
Love the tomahawk!!!!! Maybe even better than the Diamond 40!!!
Really like the Tomahawk for the spacious cabin and visibility. Good performance, won't get the numbers a Diamond does, but still a fun plane to fly.
going for my first trail flying lesson on sunday in a PA-38! So excited but nervous.
You're gonna love it! Great plane to learn to fly in. Have fun.
Great little plane. enjoyed the video!
Didn’t realize until the very end that you and the Stationair were making calls to the same airport because you both pronounced “Cameron” so differently. Did most of my training in the PA38. Loved it.
Ya I think I always say Cameron Park and some just say Cameron. PA38 is a fun plane to fly. Sporty, economical, and lots of room inside for a two place.
My Tommy will be delivered on Thursday. Can't wait to fly it 😍
What size Ipad are you using..i like that glareshield mount idea..i am trying to figure out what to do for my Tommy. I have nothing to the right of my radio stack in the center at all..so i could mount mine slightly left and angle it towards me and radio and transponder still in view..i don't know yet..but like your idea..i like how you think.
Kevin, so I actually use a yoke mount on the glareshield it’s all RAM components. I think having the claw grip like that is better than the actual glareshield mount RAM makes. It pinches and holds. I will notice a slight indent when I remove it because it squeezes the soft wrap on the glareshield, but I remove it after each flight and when I fly again I can’t even tell it was on there. I have two radios and audio panel behind the iPad mount but can easily see around it still and manipulate the knobs. I use an iPad Air, but I am considering going to a iPad mini. I also have mine angled towards me. I am adding two G5’s and a Garmin 175 this summer so I may move it more to the right like you were thinking. Hope this helps.
@@pistonstwinsandturbines2632 yes..it sure does..I am still undecided on what to do..I may even do the glareshield mount but a little more to the right..and go with an Air 3rd gen..10.5 screen for my aging eyes..thanks bud..I am retired but was a freight broker for food Ca. To Oregon and Wa. From the bay area for 20 yrs..my company was in yuba city. And I saw your trip south video..my first x- country in 1971 was klamath falls to Redding and back..mt.shasta was beautiful.
My favorite cross country so far. The views were outstanding. I want to make that trip again. I actually have a lot more footage and I am planning on adding a longer version of that short trip video, just have to find the time to edit it all. My uncle was a long haul driver and did the California to Washington route for years until his back finally gave out on him. He retired in Washington.
@@pistonstwinsandturbines2632 small world, I did that too for years..up till 2000..then started doing the dispatch/ broker thing. I love Norcal, there are so many great sights. I would love to fly the coast someday.
