Glad to see you back Falcon, and congrats, Slice on your Sim ride.
Skygirl, congrats on your boy, that is wonderful news..
Now 2dots, dont pick on Falcon, I dont understand why you are irritated with her but you both fly the same bird so do have some respect...
I was in the Sim till ....YAAWWN....1 am and will have a late schedule all week.... Slice, are you leaving the air force? And .. hey Charlie.....Wazzup?

Cass, maybe that's 2dot's way of flirting with Falcon...

Thanks regarding my son. I was one happy mama this weekend! I thank my lucky stars to have been blessed with 2 talented, bright young men. It's kind of sad that they're grown up now, but on the other hand.....Skygirl can take to the skies pretty much whenever she wants to now!....

Default Thanks so much

Perspective again, Calcapt. The 50 is neither big nor bad. A tad less than 40K MTOW...so big may be overstating. Bad? Easier to fly than the average Kingair. 48 degree flaps make the Vap very Kingairish, and a V1 cut is so docile, you'd wonder why it wasn't certified to centerline thrust specs. Other than the Dassault-standard goofy nose gear scissors contraption, it offers no mystery or bad handling qualities to even a semi-novice pilot. Nice, little airplane is a much accurate moniker for this fine bird. Now, if Mr. 30+ Cool Aviator strolls out to his V-tail...all bets are off.

My reference to the 50 was in perspective to the story that Angel and me were sharing. You setting me straight on the V1 speeds or flap settings are quite unnecessary as I am not searching for reference data. The dumb redhead (not so in this case obviously) routine was where I was referencing my remarks about the big bad falcon and it seems you stumbled into a conversation not understanding the context. I never knew about the goofy nose gear scissors contraption though - fascinating stuff!

Cool ...just a hair dryer

To tell the truth, I've never paid much attention to it. The Crash Groupies only use it as a rumpus room and very large hair dryer, ever since they found out how much hush kits cost. I pretty much stick with my Savoia S. 21 as modified with a Fiat A.S.2 "Folgore" V-12 and custom radiator configuration. FalconGirl handles it quite easily. Porco-flies.JPG

I knew that you were going to say that.... Slice, we were hoping that you'd stay and play in our sandbox for awhile, right girls? Our sandbox is better than the one "over there."

Not quite. We've had our own Falcon Girls in our department.
