Miller Aircraft Corporation T1 Trainer

1,777 swgrainger  4.9 years ago

The Miller T1 is a two seat tandem trainer also known as "Slippery Sam" for its laminar flow wing and poor low speed handling. It was easy enough to fly but slippery enough to make it interesting.

To take off apply full power and wait for it to get airborne, once airborne trim for 110mph climb.

To land, trim for 85mph approach.

AG1 - Beacon
AG2 - Navigation lights.

Have fun flying it :)
