facthunter Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Probably up at 10,000 feet so there is less margin of power available. the Piper Cub was a popular plane for rescue in the ALPS. See "Crash Pilot " by Dick Grace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Maj Millard Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 thats nothin! (wheres my chewin grass?) Ah the just Aircraft Smackdown, what a special machine !.........these guys are running huge discs (some carbon ) with double brake calliperes, so they have the stop as well as the go, and very high lift wings. Interesting they go with a bit of power to soften the touchdowns though. Ain't no Jabarus that's for sure.................Maj.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok...I thought it sounded a bit healthy!.........he 'll have to watch it with the high compression of the 912s....unless he's shaved the pistons a bit.....................Maj....

facthunter Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 At lower levels he might, but up at altitude he should be alright. He probably watches the MP gauge. Nev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
