Navion in flames.
Ron Natalie wrote: The ground roll with the Gopher engine was 850', 1100 for the 50' obstacle. Certainly we were off by midfield on a 2400 strip. I operate off a 3000' grass, and I'm certainly off by midfield with the current engine. That seems a little long. You can't get that thing off the ground in about 600 feet with the 550? The thing has huge squishy 7.00x8 tires in addition to big oleos on the mains. It was designed for unimproved strips. Just like mine. |
