Please keep up the misinformation on how
"tuff" the coupe is in a cross wind.
and the crud about side load on the gear.... or
even better how the gear casters.
I am looking to purchase another coupe and the
prices are not quite low enough for me to justify spending more than $5,000 for
a real cherry one. I know that "flying lawn chairs" are going
for a lot more than that, but since no one wants a SCARE COUPE, and I have been
called crazy... what the heck.
For the non-owners that are thinking about the
coupe, I too was scared of it before I flew it. I was lucky my coupe came
with a CFI, and AI, so check out and maintenance is no problem. After 4
landings and a Stall series I was off on my own and I had not flown for 5 years.
and yes we had a 20-30 kt cross wind that day.
I did have one wing lift that surprised
me. But the book sez do not do anything and the wing will settle... and it
did.
I have a '46-D with a 0-200 and NO-Peddles (I have a set in a
box that help increase the resale value) Every time I fly the coupe I have to
step back and think what a marvel she is.
