Charles Peterson is freakin awesome! Hope you enjoyed your flight. He's a really nice guy and has just immense amounts of knowledge, great man to have a conversation with

Maybe come out and learn to fly! As I'm sure you know now there is nothing better than soaring!

@cleekmaker00 Wow! Well my apologies. Not many original engines out there anymore, I guess someone like Harrison Ford can afford it though! Sorry ThePlanzfyre, didn't mean to be an ass, and thank you for the correction cleekmaker

Not that bad man. When I started my problem was flat landings because I was used to alot of glider flying (not alot of room behind you in a Grob 103 or anything modern.) With cadets in canada we have a very accelerated program. I went from 0 hours to solo in 3 days (with 3.2 hrs dual). Brampton a...

Are all the thermals in X-Plane blue? is there ridge and wave lift? Is there a utility to make Cu's appear realistically at the top of thermals? Are the thermals realistically and systematically placed and have a eralistic inversion layer etc or are they just giant rising columns of random air th...

And we lost only 500 feet.

Lucky buggers. PW-5 checkout in a few weekends over here!

Oh god, I hate that old "armytex" rain gear, massively NS

I do not believe this test shows how accurate the average AR2078 is. I own two, (however, both in .22) one of them has no work done, the other has alot of work. The stock one (well, of course the basic things like replacing seals, cleaning and rehoning the bore, putting a few thousand rounds thro...

I saw the first video you posted with this rifle. The accuracy does not seem reflected in this video. Is that a product of you increasing power, was the first video luck? Many reviews I have seem have said to expect .25" groups from this rifle. However, I have seen many advertisements of ".08" c-...

This is the .177 caliber version correct? And this is the 10m accuracy you are getting out of the box! I've heard good things about this airgun's accuracy, and have been debating whether or not to get one, because ive heard bad things as well. Was this out of the box performance?

Maybe it's the camera angle, but I personally would have had a slightly steeper approach angle or a slightly shorter final if I was flying. Then again, I'm a glider pilot and used to not having an engine and being first traffic priority :P But some nice flying there man. Never give it up!

And, al...

Gentle CLIMBING turn m8. Don't wanna get tangled in the rope ;P

"Perpendicular Knobs"

God dammit.

@TheMonkeyMurderer

Protip, Don't move the bolt with the safety on.

Inside beside the sear there is a little lever for the safety in this. The sear is metal, as are some parts inside the safety mechanism. When you move the bolt you run this against the inside of the bolt mechanism and safety mec...

Plan your circuits a lil bit closer maybe so you dont have to push it on base like that, I realize you were doing a pen approach, but most of the time you would lose too much from the trees, turbulence, possible sink etc to be able to make it at that range and low alt. Other than that great video...

FSX simulates wave lift? Or do you use some sort of other addon or utility?

@wildallanx Im guessing you got your license through cadets? Penetration approaches are not illegal, just not allowed in the ACGP because of safety precautions. The ACGP is Extremely redundant in it's safety. On the other hand tho, would you really ever need to do a pen approach in a glider with ...

Holy high, did you say 14k? in a 1-26!! Impressive :P Oxygen im guessing?

Aww the 2-33, the most graceful ugly brick in the skies

Oh wow, those things can sure get to a high nose up before stall! What's the stall speed in the 1-26? And was that just him touching the tail wheel down or did the wings stall? (I'm going to be in the same boat in about a week, only ever flown 2-33s, going for a few flights in a PW-5 dual for som...
