Hi all! My name is Pat and I bought a 2000 ICP Savannah MXP-740. The one with Slats (or Slots?).
It is ~735 times lighter than the heaviest plane I've flown (that one I didn't own though), so I'm still adjusting 😄.
Just completed the 420NM ferry trip home, including crossing (or better said, slaloming through) the Alps.
"Thanks" to headwinds the avg. GS was a mighty 50kts (ask my sore back about it).
Greatly appreciate the advice and answers to the many questions that will arise from you all on how to fly and maintain this plane and its 80hp Rotax.
Thanks and great as well as safe flights to everyone!
