ROUGH Takeoff~Dual Vacuum Pump Failure...Again

  • We takeoff from Gaston's Arkansas on their bumpy grass runway and as soon as we got airborne it was just as rough with the turbulence on our way to Melbourne, Arkansas for a fuel stop. While enroute there I had a DUAL vacuum pump failure...again. This is the second time in a year this has happened to me. We thought it was fixed but obviously not. Luckily our new maintenance shop, TAS in Defiance, Ohio (the Twin Cessna experts), were able to find and correctly resolve the issues. The second half of the video is flying my sister back to Rome, Georgia to drop her off before we head back to the midwest to beat the storms that were on the way.

    Hi from England, just subbed. I'm 75 yrs and I've never been on a plane. Yet I love them, especially the smaller private ones. I'm weak and feeble now, so I will have lived my life and never flown, sad really.

    In all that turbulence, I happened to notice the Gatlinburg apparel, nice! I'm glad those vacuum pumps are not a serious problem, but safety first. Awesome video as usual! Thanks for sharing, Kevin.

    Excellent job getting in and out of there in a 310! I was in there with an Ercoupe in August 2020. Leaving had to chase the geese of the runway, taxied back and took off toward the dam! Pure BLISS!
