A2A Aviation - Preparing the Aerostar

  • We at A2A want to try something a little different by sharing more of our aviation experiences by way of some casual, off-the-cuff videos. This first video is about the Aerostar that has been stuck on the ground after discovering metal in our left engine's oil filter. We pulled the engine and things got delayed, so the airplane has been sitting, trapped inside of a hangar with a door that was not tall enough for it to pass under. We got it in by putting sand bags on the tail, lowering it, and moving the tail under. We have finally solved this issue and can now run up the engine for the first time in about a year.

    You know whats sucks is that once you fly A2A aircraft its hard to go back and fly other flight sim aircraft even payware. Addicted now Take my Money and give me an Aerostar with Lycomings. I'LL WAIT 😤

    Just read the update from you guys regarding MS FS2020 and to learn that the A2A Aerostar is on the plan of record is just awesome news. As a Twin engine and next step from the A2A Comanche, an A2A Aerostar 600 will be an awesome hanger addition. Hope all at A2A are safe and well.

    Great video Scott, thanks for sharing. I feel quite queasy after watching a video shot mostly hand-held, but it was worth it (I get very motion sick in light aircraft too, sadly).
    The engine starting sequence reminded me of my first time trying to fire up the Stratocruiser's engines in your first Accu-Sim product... good memories :)

    Sounds great, I was lucky enough to work a few fires from the right seat of an Aerostar. I’m looking forward to building a simulator of the aircraft when the A2A version is released : )

    3:22 at least its not in Australia. I left a ute parked under my house for three months and the next time i drove it found that it was infested with huntsman spiders the size of my hand. That created a bit of excitement.

      @ShockwaveProd  3 роки тому +2

      Hi Dra, it can cost as low as low as several thousand a year on inspections once the airplane is at a point where it can be maintained. The Aerostar 600 is one of the most solidly built airplanes ever made.

    • @ShockwaveProd
      @ShockwaveProd  4 роки тому +4

      There is an old power trolley in the hangar, this was my mechanic's old hangar and his stuff is still all over the place. After this vid I asked him about this, but the thing is the Aerostar will rarely be at this airport since the runway is so short. It's based elsewhere. So I may just need to get this in and out 1-2x a year for annual or other repairs.
