Greetings & salutations!
I'm back with another video for you all after a delay in flying. As you know, 042 has been down for maintenance, hence the really short video last week.
To redeem myself, we met up with @cflarrow at Leesburg Airport after he kindly offered to let me fly his immaculate Piper Arrow II. So, join us as we fly from Leesburg to Williston and I learn all about the constant speed propeller and play with a retractable undercarriage!

I have my Arrow differences training next week, this was a great intro so I know a bit of what to expect! Thanks!

No worries! I’ve got my HP endorsement in a 182 on Monday so I’m hoping I can remember it all! Love your videos, by the way ... on both channels.

Hey! I watch your channel, it’s cool. I have a an Archer II and recently installed the 2 G5’s as well, had some headaches with it and the magnetometer, maybe it’s due to the strobe system as well. I was thinking of upgrading the strobes for LED’s, is it difficult to do so? Nice vids!

Already zooming ahead with some complex, nice! You are more than willing to come out once I get signed off in my own plane, we had an issue with instructors so I hope to have it in the next 2 weeks or so signed off, at least it's here in Kissimmee. Tell your gf I like her new haircut and color, very nice! My wife has a short haircut so I think they are fun. My IFR is in 3 weeks or less now, getting nervous as my written is this Friday...so sick of taking practice tests!! haha

Loved my Arrow II. Not one issue for 400hrs! Great little family airliner on 10 gph and 143kts. If Piper had made the flying surfaces sans the gaps that later required "speed mods" it would have been better. A modern cowling (like the Leopresti) with the intake plenum designed to use ram air pressure might get you 24" MP all the way to 8,000ft on most days. A gap sealed Hersey bar wing flies great AND they are faster than the III's. I or the family had to pee every 4hrs so we didn't need the 72 gal. tanks. A great little airplane!!!!

What video editing software are you using? Windows? MAC? Does it have the video annotation object tracking functionality built-in? Very professional looking.

@ZeroThreeDelta 3 жыл бұрын

I use Premiere Pro CC on a Mac. Like most tracking, it’s done manually with key frames.

@beovp91 3 жыл бұрын

Great video! I really like the under wing camera. Gosh, those air speeds..... we like 110/120 (downwind), 100 base, then pump the breaks on final 90MPH ALL... And looking for 85 on short final. Our Hershey Bar Arrow N32693, really like that extra energy that 90 mph gives you. I really love your G5’s What’s your autopilot?

Is there a way to extend the landing gear manually, just in case they don't come down?

Yes It’s called a gear extension lever It’s next to the flap extension lever

@fsodn 2 жыл бұрын

I'll add here: the arrow doesn't have any mechanical up-locks. The gear stays up by pressure in the hydraulic system. If there's a problem with the pump, you just push down (I think?) on the lever on the floor, which releases all the hydraulic valves, and the gear drops (a spring pushes the nose gear down), and there are electromechanical down-locks. The advantage of this system is that if there's a catastrophic hydraulic leak, the gear just drops (unlike, say, a Cessna 182, where if you lose all fluid you're going to have a gear-up landing no matter what). The disadvantage is that for flights over water, you have to plan that if you have a fluid loss and the gear drops, you have to have enough fuel to make it back to an airport with the gear down.

Hi great video work. The near miss guy probably isn’t using foreflight and traffic alerts. Old timers refuse to move into the new world.
