Re: 200kts Commander Hauke, Better ask Jim or Carl to bolt on the Continental diesel with 300hp. That should do the trick, especially in europe.

Re: The need for speed . . . 170? That is really fast. 29/23@ fl100 = approx 160-162kts tas. mine has the Aerodyme gimmick as well as tks (which costs about 7kts) All in all I am on poh speeds. Toss in the 320bhp jetfueled turbodiesel and you will be looking at 200kts at 12 gph

Re: Excited New Owners of N527GT I had my Aspens flushmounted.. No problems with the guestlock http://n623tc.com/sites/default/files/styles/galerij/public/L310_LR_00001.jpg?itok=qzlVZE5d

Re: New home for N693TC Never really had climb problems .. Also not when heavy. I had the flapgapseals and Aerodymes speed kit installed and the aircraft rerigged all at the same time. So cannot say what contributed to what .. But I can do the booknumbers .. Except for fuel flow. Considering...

Re: New home for N693TC Welcome, You will lover her. make sure you a good gem like an ei50 or g4. I have had my tc for over 350 hours now and went through a lot of "lessons" but now she is superduper! You can google her under N623TC. Somewhere on this forum I also posted my entire...

Re: Flying the big apple! Tx Done the heli tour.. Now would like to fly it myself

Re: UK fly-in Depending on The date I would definitely be interested but ditto tot welcome everybody inthe lowcountries..

Re: 200kts Commander We need 300bhp+ turbocharged, turbonormalised or supercharged .. Preferably on jet a. Rolls would be a great option but 1-2m range is not realistic.. Eps is to heavy and nowhere near certification? Sma or continental is the best bet I presume.

Re: 200kts Commander You are absolutely right to say that Cessna is digging it and that the sma230 version 2 is a serious engine. In fact it would qualify easily for a 114 and 114b as with dieselengines they state you may run continuous at 100% .. But eve if you reduce to 85-90% you are still...

Re: 200kts Commander The rolls sure is a nice option.. But would also cost 250.000.. You would not havea great range with 25-30 gph .. With a 300+ bhp jetfuel engine .. You would be back in the 12gph or less range .. But now you would fly 200kts

Re: 200kts Commander nahhh all you need is a turbocharged or supercharged 300+ BHP engine... A Supercommander with extra breath or A good diesel engine from SMA or Continental with 300+ BHP should do the trick For futuresake the latter will be the very best solution!

Re: UK Commander Get Together 2013 Hi Steve I do not believe that N623TC will be coming. Unfortunately I leave that day for Seattle. Jim Richards will be taking her to Guernsey and originally was planning on flying her via Kemble but I believe he has hitched a ride out of Guernsey with another...
