In this video I discuss if it's possible to own or fly a Challenger ll and be over weight? also I show the new location of my Challenger!

Great video. Do the math. What weight throws the CG forward of the front limit? It will fly like crap long before you reach that forward limit. Remember we balance the plane for the primary pilot.

Cool Jon, nice field, reminds me of the field that I'm at, it's also a private runway. My gopro arrived, cable arrives tomorrow. So I'll be making some new videos. My flight to Hastings, my gopro 3 turned off on me. so i'll be making another trip to 9D9. Mid afternoon flight was rough. will do a early morning flight or around 1900 hrs. Mike

Great advice! Pilots must learn density altitude. I fly a Challenger II on amphibious floats. A 3500 feet density altitude at my 750 foot airport makes the departure end trees way too tall for me. No flying on those days, it’s not worth the risk!

Oh yea I bet that's a challenge! What engine do you have? Don't you have that 680 or that upgraded 582?

@@TheJonjonj It’s been a 503 since new in 2004, it’s taken me east to Nova Scotia and west to Alberta. I just built and installed a 582 blue head as I’ll be with a passenger much more now. The 503 long wing will do it, it’s just going to be easier with the 582.

John. It appears your front seat has been raised to accommodate your battery correct me if Im wrong, but you would get a lot more head room if you went stock with the front seat and moved the battery under the rear seat. Cheers happy flying.

Yes you're correct but I'm okay with moving the box I like to have a higher position in the plane to see more!

How would you recommend this bird as a time builder and trainer for ASES? I’m currently a Sport Pilot and want to add ASES. Also I’d like to build hours toward CFI-S, could you train someone in the plane as well.
