Danny King Short Field Takeoff

[hiflyer53qwc]

I think you over rotated ....that wasn't all that short

@hiflyer53qwc I don't think you have any time in RVs or at 52F. He was wheels-off-the-asphalt in just over 300'. Stick with flying your Microsoft flight simulator games where anything is possible and if you don't like the outcome, you can hit "reset." A lot of us know Danny--he's a helluva pilot. Did tours as a IP in T-38s and then retired from the airlines. Also an accomplished aerobatics pilot. That's also a beautiful, immaculate RV he built.

@BillDoolinDodge ....sorry to have upset you...guess what ..I can match his ratings and experience....I'll stick with my original opinion

[BillDoolinDodge]

@hiflyer53qwc Ratings on computer game simulators don't count. . . How much time do you have in an RV?

[hiflyer53qwc]

@BillDoolinDodge ok ok Bill....I'll get off the simulater and get a license one of these days.....but these video games are so much safer...don't you think?

@hiflyer53qwc actually you've probably got a better chance of getting electrocuted at your computer than getting hurt in one of these (if you're a halfway decent pilot) lol

the WOW factor

[USAFA21]

This RV-8 should fly and do a hypathetical dogfight with the Luftwaffe RV-8, and then film it

[KenoraKQ]

excellent performance and great technique, can you post one of the same a/c doing a short field landing...
