No wonder, i can't afford a gripen fighter jet either

For some reason I wa thinking of the Saab jets

It's nice to dream tho 😊

That’s like 100 hours tt

Me neither; aprox. 1 milions

Totally agree. The more and more personal flair he’s shoving in these otherwise factual reviews is pure gold 😅

That seems to be a really cool hangar design.

Agreed. Thanks for sharing

No personal space in the EU, you don't say 😬

Germany is the size of Montana, but has 84 million people instead of 1.8. What is personal space?

Agree, these do exist. HOWEVER, many of the hangars are T-Hangers. Personally, I wouldn’t like to put my plans on these discs, unless absolutely necessary. I don’t like dents in my brand new 1.5 million DA50🤪😅😅

That’s insightful! 😅

Micke! Hey, it's a compliment. He has a German accent therefore knows a lot about engineering (stereotype yes I suppose but positive one that Germans are smart and good at engineering) therefore I wouldn't argue with him. I drive a German car! I'm a fan of Diamond, check my other diamond videos. Mostly thanks to you and Martin. Thanks for commenting. I've been watching you since your Crossing the Pond series. Next time you come to London beers are on me! Cheers from Ottawa 👍

I'd rather be under a parachute canopy at basically zero forward airspeed than to try to keep it in a stall and hit the ground (or trees) at 58 knots (~67mph). It's even more when you take the vertical speed component into account. No thanks.

So you rather be under a parachute on your way into the power lines than deciding where to land? interesting@@Brimstin

That's extremely unlikely, @@MickeLang, Diamond Employee. (Be careful not to let your bias cloud your judgement!) Out of the recorded SR22 parachute events, how many have drifted into power lines while under canopy? If you're that worried about extreme corner cases, you probably don't have any business flying... let alone walking outside your front door each day. Risks are everywhere. It's about assessing the likelihood of risks and having the right tools and strategies to minimize their impact. So yes, I would much rather be under canopy-especially at night, in IMC, or in mountainous terrain-than to crash land at 67mph.

@@MickeLang While one can argue all the facets of an accident, Cirrus has claimed that everyone has survived every CAPS deployment that was within the envelope.

Good catch. 😣

Thanks, Yup

Good catch. Oops 😖

Consider a Lancair Evolution.

I have. I even have 2 or 3 drawn. One day

Yup

"He died doing what he loved."

Yeah, you mostly see them where there are a lot of GA pilots, but not alot of space available. Out in the countryside, you might as well build your own hanger, the land is cheap and available, and you don't need to coordinate with anyone. If you look at a larger GA airport like Springbank by Calgary, you'll see tons of T-hangers.

"As long as it's available..." You answered your own question. I a world where gubbermint authorities like to regulate every detail, and ban every thing, many of us assume that "they" will come for AVGAS with or without lead, simply because Jet-A is more "efficient". If that sounds crazy, try talking to California about gas engines in cars. Logic does not apply when it comes to politicians.

@@FamilyManMoving It’s not ever going to happen, they have been working on unleaded fuel, sure, they might ban the sale of 100LL yeah sure, but only if and when a drop in certified replacement is available in similar quantities as 100LL is now. There are to many planes out there, and they surely are not gonna ground the far out majority of all GA planes in the world. As for more efficient: Jet A actually has a lower energy density than AVGAS although it contains more energy for a given volume because it’s denser, but that also makes it heavier. The diesel engines are supposed to be more efficient and yes in terms of fuel consumption they are, but there is cost, a diesel has a lower power to weight ratio. For the same weight, an AVGAS burning engine is more powerful, equally true: for the same power, an AVGAS burning engine is a lot lighter.

Odd that densely populated Europe would have less efficient boxy hangers.

@@thephotoyak there simply isn't the demand here, unlike in the us very few people actually own a plane, the vast majority of ga planes in the air are from flight school/clubs wich have theyre own big hangar in wich they store all of them, people that do own a planes store it along the school ones

Any and all speed mods add 10kts each. It's a regulation in the Hangar Flying Handbook.

both are preatty good

@@pietrooliani3251 flying upside down

I think it because it can't fit inside a standard T hangar (which usually can only fit a maximum of 40ft of wingspan) so a bigger more expensive hangar is needed. A T hangar usually cost $300 to $500 here, more if you choose air conditioned one.

Yes, once you get out of t-hangars (in north America) you get into big boy hangars and the cost is extravagant and varies widely. 20k is annually and an average from a very wide array. This video explains where my numbers come from kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i6yFd9tlzLbXfnU.html

I think it was originally supposed to be way cheaper but then inflation, shortages and huge demand on everything induced by near 0% loan rates skyrocketed the price. I think we should just let Diamond to churn through the wealthy buyers first and allow them to adjust the price for realistic market conditions. Maybe they'll also come up with some more powerful AE engine for it as well.

@@YaroslavNechaev if the price is set half way between da40 and da42, it would be more reasonable. For the same price as da62 it is just a big no no. The worse thing here is, it is also a less capable plane than the sr22t. More expensive, slower, unproven engine, and cd300 isn't that much more efficient than the tsio550. Unlike the AE300 which burns siginificantly less gas than IO360, the extra complexity of the cd300 didn't bring enough benefit to justify it.

@@shiroyukiwang1252 well, to be fair TSIO-550 is also quite a maintenance nightmare. I'll stick to my 4-cylinder SR20. I've been in DA50/DA62 cabin, though. It's much roomier than Cirrus, especially for the second row passengers. I'd say if we could buy it for $900k (the price of base SR22T or highly-optioned SR22) it would have been competitive. As it stands I would rather buy DA62 if I'm in Europe or an SR22T if I'm in the US.

@@YaroslavNechaev the weaknesses of tsio550 is pretty well knows and there’s a lot of shop that can overhaul/repair it. For CD300 most mechanic have zero experience working on it and have no idea what could go wrong. Also it is possible some day continental could drop the product line and you’re stucked with thielert V2.0 situation.

Agree. I don’t understand the appeal of the DA50 with its max range of 750nm at economy cruise. Why bother with retractable gear?

the hangar is a us problem, in europe t-hangars don't exists

Not to mention significantly higher insurance premiums.

Most spins are departure stalls (often engine failure-induced!) or base-to-final turn stalls. If you spin at that altitude - no recovery procedure will help you. The parachute (with the appropriate training) just might. Besides, no one cares about saving the airplane, once the turd hits the fan it's owned by the insurance company. The prime directive is to save people.

Wings don't pop off a da50

@@CompleteWalkaround Sure they do, but not conveniently. They don't really come off the Duo easily either. It's parked in a hanger with a 70 foot door.

DA40 has better range funny enough

Have one, enjoy!

False.
