seb7701 Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 G'day all. Just curious as to whether there are any x-air standard's around SE Qld, as I would like to eye-ball one in the flesh to see what they're all about, Despite the daily enjoyment I have been getting out of my gorgeous Drifter lately, only one of my boys is happy to strap in, prompting me to wonder about similarly priced, enclosed a/c. So before I throw up the for sale / for trade sign, I would be interested to hear some real world performance figures, if anyone knows. I am assumng most are 582 powered. Nonetheless, I should mention that if anyone is after one of the most immaculate and factory original A503's around (not to mention the ultra-low hours), then perhaps give me a yell, as I could well be persuaded...! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c722352 Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 There is one sitting in the recreational flying Co hangar at Gympie it's a rotax 618 powered, very close to Drifter performance. Great aircraft not a patch on the drifter though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seb7701 Posted March 15, 2014 Author Share Posted March 15, 2014 Yeah, thats what bothers me - a bit draggy given the 55kts I have heard of with a 618... Not many other options though. Can't complain with what I have to go on with though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
