Subject: | Re: 701 Buffet at slow speeds. |
A great local bushpilot and our Mentor (is wonderful to listen to his advis
e), -3 years ago asked me to have the chance to test fly my 701... Shure
was a -honor for me, because he is a tail wheel pilot, "he hates training
wheels" jokes around.
To watch him fly the 701 was a beautifull aerial ballet, no hard aerobatic
manuvers, just the plane tested to the limits of normal manuvers.
He got out the plane very happy. -He loved how the plane performed. -On
e thing he mention was that the 701 was a great plane for a novice pilot, h
e told me "you have a huge stall alarm built in" -with a big smile...

My 701 does the same thing. What makes it do that I have no idea, but I do
make use it to control my speed on landings. It's like a built in stall ind
icator except no- conventional stall occurs, just the big controllable mu
sh.
Do I wish the wing profile continued over the cabin, you bet. I truly belie
ve it would be a better plane if it did, as I suspect the buffeting MAY sta
rt there. For one thing I could peer into the wing at a sight glass and kno
w exactly how much gas I have. I could run a vent line between the gas tank
s to equalize the pressure of the tanks so they would feed evenly, Cessna d
oes it that way. Does the stall (buffeting) start over the cabin long befor
e the rest of the wing, I have no doubt.
All in all I love to fly the 701 very much but believe there is room for im
provements in several areas. To be fair you could say that about any airpla
ne though.

I have found that a drop of GOO GONE (Magic American Products) spread
onto the label and allowed to soak for 5 minutes allow you to lift the
label off. There may be a small amount of stickum left on the part that
comes off easily with a drop of lacquer thinner.

FYI,
Keep the lacquer thinner in a plastic squirt bottle. Squirt some on the label
and in about 60 seconds or less, peel off the label, wipe off the excess and your
done.
