Great - should have been done years ago. Thanks Rob, John and BMAA. The LAA on the Vne check are very keen to ensure the engine does not over-rev, and ask for a note of what was achieved. I note Rob applies full power - on some engines this could definitely exceed the red line.
Hi Dave, you're absolutely right and great advice. Engine rpm must be monitored carefully during the Vne dive, to ensure no chance of redlining. Remember you don't have to go all the way, within 5kts or 5% is perfectly acceptable.
Hush up for 5 minutes mate. I just want to enjoy the aircraft sound, plus enjoy the scenery. Yep as a 70 something teenager, one day, I might buy one, but right now I just want to enjoy the silence, and view the scenery. Just 5 minutes, of hush, is all I ask. Thank you.
Great example of a flight check, lovely machine. 😎👍
Excellent informative video for a lapsed pilot trying to revalidate my licence.

A good concise presentation, very glad to say my check flight pretty much matched this great walk through.
Very Good, that should help lots of owners.
Great video thanks for sharing 😊
Excellent video, nice trike.
Brilliant video very informative.
Looks great where do i sign
Did you forget 'Airframe' on both the HASELL checks?...
The 'Airframe' check would usually cover configurable items such as flaps, which the flexwing does not have.
Not sure about passenger holding gloves on t/o and putting them on mid-flight..... 😬
Otherwise - great vid
They were my thoughts too! Depending on which way they go determines whether they get spat downwards or up through the sail underside...
What's the maximum speed this craft can fly at?
The VNE (never exceed speed) is 117mph. See the BMAA website for full details: www.bmaa.org/files/TADS_BM94_exodus_deltajet500_stingray.pdf
@@BritishMicrolighting and what's the payload it can carry? How many kgs? And, with a full fuel tank, what distance can it cover?

No One ever checks the Wing Jesus Bolt, if it Breaks, you Might See Jesus rather quickly....
