@aerocommanderbuff62 Sorry but these engine were Lycomongs developing 295 HP. I know because I flew these aircraft for 40 years or so.

back in 1984 we regularly flew in an Aero Commander(Twin Commander) but also on pipers and cessnas and beechcrafts. this is the best propeller driven plane i've ever been on. better than a bonanza.

If God was a light twin, he would be the Aero Commander 500.

I well remember my fist flight in a 500B from Virginia Airport in Duran in 1969. A mate of mines Father ( now deceased - I think owned ZS-CBC and we had to fly down to Queenstown for a presentation award dinnner. My mate Garth and I wandered around town that night staying at the Hexagon Hotel. nect morning the plane was refueled and we headed up to Drakensber Gardens hotel to where they had a holiday home for lunch. Have lots of fantastic photos of that fantastic day. Went on to fly them later .

Aero Commander landing 15WA, Stanwood, Washingtonby davephifer1,505 views
wait does his port wheel appear at 0:55???????
juzzi07 1 year ago
The undercarraige is held in the up position by sheer hydraulic pressure and the G's I pulled caused that wheel to "push back" sufficiently to protrude from the wheel well. If hydraulic pressure is lost, the wheels fall into the down and locked position automatically once the speed gets below about 100 knots.
I needed that once when I lost hydraulics in flight and made a safe landing at our home port.
Not many folks notice that.

@nicoacuorg
interesting - i caught a glimpse of it and wondered why. Is the plane still flying?
juzzi07 1 year ago
@juzzi07 I haven't seen it since 1993, but it still shows up on the registry as active, so I assume it's still going strong.

this is a straight 500,it has continental engins not 480 lycomming geardrivers.the give away is the two bladed prop, but a very nice commander!!!
aerocommanderbuff62 2 years ago
