MU-2 Video Compilation

[mjd4277]

Great video. MU-2s are very cheap to acquire on the used airplane market nowadays. I've seen some go for around $325,000 to $675,000 on Trade A Plane.com. Too bad Mitsubishi doesn't make them anymore.

Excellent video and a very cool aircraft.

Are u rich?

I heard the MU-2 requires a type rating even though its under 12500

[gregmink]

@aimpoint101 It does not require a type rating. It does require FAA mandated training on an annual basis much like the Robinson R-22 helicopter. As a result of the training, our safety record has been outstanding. The owners/operators welcome the training as most were doing it anyway and it keeps the folks who shouldn't be flying a high performance aircraft out of the left seat.

@gregmink It ought to be a damn good safety record given the some what unsavory attention the airframe gets. I like how if an MU-2 has so much as a runway incursion that the aviation media heads jump on it. But, whenever something like a King Air bites it, they don't so much as bat an eye.

At anyrate, this video kicks ass!

I am Brazilian, a passionate pilot and MU3, or just "Flying Rats" as affectionately called here in Brazil. Congratulations, one of the best videos I've seen here in q YOUTUBE this machine.

great machine , worked on them for19 years. enjoyed nts check flights

I've moved on to "bigger and better", but my days flying the Mitsi in single pilot cargo ops are the best times I ever had in an airplane. Incredible performer, and don't you believe all that nonsense about it being a widowmaker. If you're halfway competent, it's a sweetheart. Having flown both, now, jets are for nancies. If I ever hit the lotto, it's an MU-2 in my garage. Long live the Mitsi.

[notar1]

So what steps before flying MU-2 did you fly? training i gues i am asking ?

[photobart1]

I love that plane. Been reading up on it and it's history. A lot of plane for the money but you better know what your doing when you fly it. Good idea to take the special training classes on this plane. Wish I had your job. Such a beautiful flying machine.

Loved the video. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent video...We are considering the Marquise for corporate transport. Do you find the insurance rates reasonable?

[duragg]

One begins to lust for the sound of the 331....  TJ

[Section31Trinity]

how do you mount your camera? great video.

[gregmink]

I have a couple of the suction cup mini mounts from Delkin. They are great. Check out my Fort Pierce to Bahamas video. I have another mount that I explain about half way into that video and I have a picture of it.
