Flying in an Airplane.

120k ACEPILOT109  5.2 years ago

Well, I get to go flying in a 1972 citabria, the first plane with an engine I’ll fly in. I have flown a ASK-21 Glider but on this plane engine failure is about 100 times more likely. Lol

this is not the same plane I’ll be in, jut same model

Wish me luck!

    It really was an awesome plane, it was easy to take control of when I tried it out and felt pretty stable. Of corse, this is the first prop plane I have bee in so what do I know... @MrSilverWolf

    At least the 172 has flaps lol, the one i flew was a very simple plane @AWESOMENESS360

    So from what ive found is that it uses the O-360 or O-320 which the O-360 is what is mounted on the skyhawk I fly, and that is probably one of the best little aircraft engines made in my opinion, no issues with it over nearly 300 hours in that airplane, great engine, no need to worry about failure of it, its a brilliant engine
    (And the citabria is a awesome airplane, would love to fly one)

    Cool! I've flown a Cessna-172, which is a lot less cooler than the plane you flew!

    @BoeyingOfficial I’d rather ride the Boeing 777X than anything

    I've never flown on a 747 but I've seen one taxi in two gates down from my airplane once @BoeyingOfficial

    Yeah, probably the last time in my life that I get the chance to ride a quad engine @Lahoski107

    Dang, you are lucky to fly the 747. We can’t afford our flag carrier so I will probably never get the chance to ride one. But next month I will fly with an A340 which is also becoming a rare opportunity. @Lahoski107
