    This Challenger's empty weight is nearly 800 pounds (!!),>> Good grief, no wonder he can`t climb. I weigh 0ver 200lbs, probably more with my flying kit on, and my Challenger with a 503 delivered a climb of better than 500 ft per min. for the first 500ft and just a little less to 1000ft.. It is no good just applying rudder in a Challenger. She just ignores it. You have to get some stick into it as well. I should get your friend to embark on a course of Full English Breakfasts. Eggs,bacon, sausage,black pudding,fried bread, tomatoes. Followed by toast and marmalade. After about 3 weeks he will have added another 20 lbs to his weight and won`t be able get the Challenger off the ground at all and will probably prolong his life quite a bit. As he is it is an accident waiting to happen. Cheers Pat :-).

    Richard, That was a great story. Thanks for sharing. As we age and grow circumferentially, boarding and un-boarding (if that is a word) become more important decision criteria for sure. Several years ago I saw a pretty Taylorcraft for sale that sort of interested me. I took the trouble to get into it and out of it and said no thank you. Too much work. -------- Thom in Buffalo N221FA Allegro 2000 912UL N197BG FS1/447 -------------------- Believe nothing, no matter where you read it or who has said it, not even if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense. - Buddha Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=152963#152963

Actually the Taylorcraft (I used to own one) is very easy to get in and out of, but if and only if you use the right sequence. -Dana -- Software isn't released, it's allowed to escape.
