Ercoupe-A Living Legend

[rrip1]

I've said since I was a kid that I'd someday own an ErCoupe. It hasn't happened yet.

Beautiful on the outside. Would love to see the cocpit.

I love the stall speed....on these beautiful planes,and yes they are xpensive now lol...

[taterfamine]

beautiful plane man! i want one soooo bad haha. i guess they aren't that expensive either.

well, everything aviation related is expensive, so scratch that last comment.

Nice video, I enjoyed seeing your plane! Please take a look at my Ercoupe video: Ercoupe Rick I'm interested in your comments. Do you have any interior pics of your plane?

[RippedWookie]

1:53 - 2:01

Those pictures are from Mallard's Landing, right?

[Nza420]

a guy i met had one of these.. he plowed it into the ground, unfortunately.

he should have stuck to flying his citabria..

I helped do a little bit of the annual on this plane. One of the Sweetest Ercoupes I've ever seen. This guy really took such good care of his plane. The interior was probably as in good shape as the Columbia 400 we had.

Nice looking plane!

Excellent pictures of a superb aircraft. But let me do a criticism: this is not a video - it's just a sequence of still images. I came to your entry expecting to see a video of a nice Ercoupe flying. Do you have one?

[Admiral1428]

I flew with him!! Same airplane! Back when he was based at Dinwiddie County Airport in Virginia. I hope he's enjoying it in Texas now (I believe that's where he moved). I'm glad to have stumbled upon this! 

[hyperbrowser]

@Admiral1428 Yeah he's in TX, he fills up at my second home airport every now and then. Great guy.

[ljackso]

Beautiful airplane. I would love to see a video of her flying!

[mmichaeldonavon]

Hey Southwest7374life, found your video, again, while surfing. Always enjoy seeing "niner four, Hotel", especially the shots in the air. Hi to all.

[MOTOPETE159]

Very pretty coupe, are those cessna pants? They look neat.

[gliderdude43]

In the early 50s my dad would rent an ercoupe , so I could be 'Pilot in Command.' I was too short to reach the rudder pedals. brought back great memories.

[okbuilder]

@gliderdude43 LOL.... Do coupes even have pedals?

[kc5qnk]

GORGEOUS! Has it been to OSH?

[Southwest7374life]

Nope not yet, but one day we do want to take her.

[kc5qnk]

Look forward to seeing her there...really love Ercoupes!

[flydogjunk]

wow,an outstanding example.thanks for the post!!

[jahosaphet05]

does that plane qualify light sport?

[Southwest7374life]

Yes it does!

[alienhuman]

not all 'coupes do though.

[KregAXN]

Ercoupes...what a unique plane. :)

And that one is especially gorgeous! Also first pics I've seen with wheelpants on a 'Coupe.

[stars4light]

Beautitul! I'd love to fly in that!
