OMG didn't see this coming

Be interesting to see if I can break this one as well, crikey going GA mad.

Wow, Carenado should be quite worried.

My only "complaint" is that the 182 is just a "beefed-up" 172 basically, isn't it? I wish they would do a SuperCub or a Zenith one day.

The best thing is being able to use a HSI and the flight 1 GTN units as well so im looking forward to this

The comment about being too similar to the C172 is right on the money. Why not the RG version?

That would the better choice, Scott said 5 years working on it - I do have fun with there Cessna and Piper, RG Cessna would a better approach.

Originally more of a trike version of the 180 - both used the O540 engine which ran on red (80/87) gas.

Dave , i can recall running my old 57 Vauxhall Velox on 100 octane ...always had a nice white tail pipe .
We used to keep all the water test stuff and save it up , come to think of it , the old girl was painted in RNZAF paint as well .... same blue and white as the Hercs back then.
The 100 was good , but a bit hard on valves , and it used to leave a tell tale green tinge around the carb.

I ran my 87 Laser on 100/130 for a little while. It really went like the clappers. Love it when people with fuel cards owe you favors...

by **Ian Warren** » Fri Nov 07, 2014 8:59 am

Dose great stuff, only run it once every six months, got first dose on that track at Ruapuna ... another 10/15% extra kick - rocket fuel

Haha, priceless. Instant performance vehicle

Deeknow , i can recall running an old Hillman Hunter on the part contents of a drum of 115/145 octane (it was purple from memory) who knows why it was in the drum store , but we pinched it and filled up the hunter (course car) and headed south to Ohakea from Whenuapai ... as Chopper nut said about his Laser , it went like a rocket ..... as far as Hamilton when a few of the valves turned to dust and went out the exhaust pipe .
Harry the hunter died feeling like a Ferrari

I think i just confessed to chargeable offence

Mmmm... me neither now that I see the price. Am sure its a great simulation but I just wouldn't spend enough time flying it.
I spose if you were doing your PPL it might be of use as a supplementary thing?

by **Ian Warren** » Sat Nov 15, 2014 9:21 am

Crikey that was quick !

I'll wait till I get a real job ... don't want to get to GA on it .... had it been the Harvard it would not have been no issue.
