Morris Kernick called and needed this airplane relocated from his shop in Stockton to the Oklahoma City area. So yesterday morning, I hopp ed a "crowd killer" to CA and then jumped in N6258X and headed east. The airplane really performs well!! Take off is good but the real fun comes in the climb! I had to file IFR to get out of the valley fog. The airpl ane easily climbed 2000 fpm with no cooling issues. It was still climbing over 1000FPM going through 13,000. Admittedly, I was below gross but the airplane was plum full of gas (241 gal) and had lots of performance left. I flew to Durango (DUR) in about 3.1 hours, around 215kts including the climb. Fueled, and pressed on at night arriving 2.2 hours later and abou t 9pm. Averaged about 213 kts including two climbs and circling the fiel d etc. Purdy cool machine. landed on a 3000 foot strip and met the new owners, soon to be TCFG members. Great guys. Fun to fly at night in a really capable airplane. jb ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 11:01:20 PM PST US From: "cybersuperstore" Subject: RE: Commander-List: NICE FLIGHT That configuration has always been my dream outfit.
