  • Why are Cessna's always so under powered?

  • Puting a bigger engine in is always the answer!

  • I got all my training in the 172. After flying a few other aircraft, I've really come to dislike the plane for a few reasons. Primary dislike due to the high wing right over the fuselage so when you turn you can not see up. BAD. The under powered engine is also not fun. 1000fpm climb is so bland.

  • @rock3tcat To keep them cheap.

  • @bajesus666 wait... what do you mean by that? fully flush? And i am in fact a pilot.

  • @TheWhiteOwl23 I doubt the fact you are a real pilot. He did take off with full throttle. If you have ever flown before, you would know the throttle doesnt go totally flush with the panel.

  • @lycoming333 hell, im just glad to see a show dedicated to flying on the discovery channel. netter than a bunch of rednecks cutting logs lol. It is more than the flying in the show; there is a lot about Alaskan culture and such

  • @lycoming333 yeah this show is ridiculous.

  • @TheWhiteOwl23 yea this show is for green horns. If you know anything about flying this show will annoy the hell out of youin just tenminutes! The only thing I like about this show is that 180.

  • T/O ski's. On the plane till T/O, and send Ariel to go pick em' up. But drama sells, so..............
