Where is that YAWN icon?
A quote from an article/announcement isn't a disclaimer. cardiomd - you spend MUCH more time on here telling everyone THEY don't need something than I do offering my opinion of AoA. But you keep on with your imaginative comebacks! And yes -- I'd love to have that gauge in my cockpit. |
Never seen anything like that. Green is on target pitch, red is too high, what's yellow doing? Only air-cooled engine I got runs a pressure cleaner pump. But I suppose if I was fortunate enough, wealthy enough, to be an airplane owner...no I wouldn't cough up the extra 3K or chop up my glare-shield unless I had too. Is there a rule change pending?

I'd like one with an amber on-speed donut, and green slow/red fast chevrons. But that's just personal preference :D

A very good and detailed description of some of the benefits that some might find with an installed AoA system for GA aircraft.
Why We Fly Alpha I've had a little interaction with two of the participants and find their work to be very helpful. Thanks for the efforts gentlemen. |

Another SR20 down in typical fashion. :( In order to fly this plane safely, you must understand it, why she couldn't get down quickly, and why she spun it in the pattern.

Despite this, I like the plane. I very nearly bought one, and they are much more affordable than even a new Cessna 182 (SR20 is half the price). However, I like the joy of flight too much to fly the spring-loaded plane that needs to be operated in such a fashion - again, I would not "have fun" or explore the envelope in this plane. It is a high performance transport craft and should be respected as such.
In fact, I might even want an AOA gauge if I flew a plane with the SR22's airfoil, (much as I would want one if I flew an F-16 or an A320.) But, I don't, so I don't. ;) |
