I have always wanted a Cameron Team 51

I wonder how distracting it would be to fly around with an erection all the time?
I want to go back to work.

I think he wanted a Garrett. If you want a speedy prop airplane, you could do
a lot worse than a 1100hp Garrett Legend (Vne 400 mph)

A Garrett Legend passes through my way from time to time and I always think one of those with O2 would be awesome. I figure wide open in the climb at 500fpm would have to be around 250kts, then start descent early and push the needle to 400 all the way down...

Chris...you might be looking at the racing version. The basic one is identical to a P51...including the belly scoop....!
Except made with carbon fiber....performs better than the original..
Legend is a cool,aircraft. Seems to me some guys in Calgary were involved in the design...still one there maybe.

Ok, it does look neat.

I don't know if I would fit. I sat in Bob Hoover's Ole Yeller. I did not play around with the seat adjustments because It was a privilege just to sit in it but I wouldn't be able to close the canopy and my shoulders were wedged in pretty tight. They were built to be flown by fellows much smaller than me.

If I had a plane I don't mind squaking a code. I'm well behaved in class C.
I don't mind being too honest either. So if I am grounded forever I might just switch back to playing with bicycles.

[quote]100 us an hour for an instructor is getting up there a bit.....[/quote]
The real measure of the price you pay for flight instruction is measured by what you learn in the time frame you are being taught.
For instance paying fifty dollars an hour to an inexperienced flight instructor with very little flying experience is to much.
Conversely paying several hundred dollars an hour for a few hours where you actually become more proficient is money well spent.
By the way when I was teaching advanced flying before I retired I charged 250 Euro per flight hour.
