@stratobee Very interesting! At least there is another form of steering to be used in lieu of the hydraulic steering.
I enjoy your first hand information on the Commanders. I would absolutely love to own one some day and your videos get me that much closer to them.

@cholubaz I thought it might have been that too but I noticed that fuselage, right before the empenage, was a lot longer on the Seminole rather than the Duchess when comparing pictures online. If you pause the video right as the aircraft passes and compare pictures online with the video, you will see what I mean.

Last thing, I believe that aircraft at 4:25 is a Beech Duchess. Seneca's aren't T-tails.

@RippedWookie You're right, it's not a Seneca. I should know - I bloody trained on them!

Not to be picky, but have you ever stopped on the runway, powered up to 100%, and then let off the brakes to get the most out of your bird on those high and hot departures? I noticed you like rolling starts :)
Great videos as always and look forward to more!

@RippedWookie I might also add that the steering on the Aero Commander is its achilles heel. It has hydraulic steering actuated by slight toe pressure, but on 90% of them it doesn't work very well. And if you press too hard, you go into differential breaking. So it's hard to stay straight on a runway with steering alone and not dig into the brakes which will slow you down, so I prefer to use differential power.
