Default Turn coordinator? How dare they!

you know Bart...i bet if you and the Gapa Geezer would be a needle and ball in the PW-2 you could probably get a little further from the airport. You could run it off a venturi too since that really wouldn't add significant drag or hurt the performance any more, and then you wouldn't have to carry around a heavy battery.


Naw, just carry a cat in the cockpit. Then when you get stuck in a cloud, drop the cat and follow him down - we all know cats land on their feet so if you maintain close formation you can determine attitude by the orientation of the cat.

Just make sure you're not the 10th pilot to use the cat...
