HeadInTheClouds Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Seems to be a bit of overkill but damned cool none the less, I bet that start-up sound would scare some people who didn't know it was a turbine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazza 38 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Cool, If I had long arms and short pockets. I would have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest avi8tr Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 It certainly has all the right sounds ! I'll have to look up what type it is. Interesting. He comes in quite fast for the aircraft, it might be one of it's early flights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignition Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Sounds nice, not too sure if the sound justifys the 12 GPH fuel burn... (45L if my maths is correct?) [http://www.zenithair.com/misc/turbine-power.html] Im watching the PBS TP100, not sure of the fuel burn for this one, but itd be interesting and worth it if theyre affordable...

Guest Michael Coates Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 No good for RAA cause we cant have turbines.... Notice how it is not painted, probably the heat from the exhaust would mess it up ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Isaac Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Not so sure about that Michael, I have heard a few people say that. It is certainly not so in 95-10 types where you can pretty much do what you want as long as you stay within the weight and wing loading limits. Why do you say that turbines are not permitted in RAA?
