  • I had a little porpoise action just the other day.. I got caught offguard w/o my 80 pounds of ballast in the luggage compartment, and tried to correct a first bounce.. Once they get going that way, it's kinda hard to break out of it. I initiated a go-around on the second bounce, but it porpoised a couple of times times before I got it ahead of the power curve. No one else around fortunately

    I've had my Sundowner at 1L0.. do you know 'Frog'?

  • I never met Frog!

  • How much did you pay for this beauty? I found one for $12,000 AUD and might go and check it out.

  • Sweet landing! Looked like the skies and air were smooth as silk! Terrific landing never the less.

  • Umm, it really depends on what type of shape it is in! Ours is in pretty decent shape and is a 1982. The appraisal value is $45,000. If it is incapable of flying, I would imagine the value would be decreased about half to three quarters. You are probably looking at maybe ten to fifteen thousand as a rough estimate!

  • how much should a 1976 sundowner 180 cost that hasnt flown in 21 years and is incapable of flying cost?

  • I don't think I get a stall horn in my sundowner! I know it works, it just doesn't happen! Strange...

  • Awesome landing. love the stall horn right on touchdown.

  • I miss my Sundowner!

    Nice landing - if you knew how to treat this plane right, it would treat you right. Approach speed on final is key. I never bounced it, but I have seen others get to abuse the nosegear!

    Really appreciated this video.

  • And who says a Beech is hard to land?
