Rotor: 2 blade vs 4 blade
I was thinking, and no it wasn't after a couple of drinks :lol: The development of flying cars is becoming more and more common. So why can't a flying car with a rotor system be on the table?

Pierre - To become an AP is possible, no problem. To become an AP and inspect and sign of your OWN aircraft is another story.
Eg. I didn't build my Sycamore. So now I become an AP but I still need to take my Sycamore to another AP for annual, I can't sign off my gyro.

Re: SAGPA

Re: Tandem vs Side by Side; Perfect vs Ideal.
Come on FLYNOTE, tell us which one you are looking at!! But now I am moving back to tandem as I fly solo most of the time and I want more speed and manouvreability... And it must be enclosed.

Re: Tandem vs Side by Side; Perfect vs Ideal.
I think in the end it boils down to horses for courses.... Recreational flying = shorter distances=exploring= lower altitudes= slower speeds= open cockpit Flying to get from A to B = longer distances =High speeds= High altitudes = Enclosed cockpit I suppose it mostly depends on application, In my c...
