carusoam Posted September 25, 2016 Report Posted September 25, 2016 Welcome aboard, and sorry to see you go at the same time. How long have you had 801Y? Some of the coolest people fly Rocket engineering birds! Best regards, -a- 2 Quote
peterlight Posted September 26, 2016 Author Report Posted September 26, 2016 Hey Thanks! I've owned 9801Y for ~8 years with a great friend & partner. We love this plane. We're moving to a 6-seater given expanding families. 1 Quote
thinwing Posted October 4, 2016 Report Posted October 4, 2016 I would love to see ground speed west bound @16k when you flew back to Napa from Herlong Quote
peevee Posted October 5, 2016 Report Posted October 5, 2016 I can't imagine there's a better performance bang for the buck out there. Can't be. Quote
Mcstealth Posted October 9, 2016 Report Posted October 9, 2016 Rocket Engineering specs say that the UL is 1132ibs for a standard 231 conversion. i wonder how many 252's were converted to Rockets? Would they have a better UL? good luck on the sell. Nice example you have there. welcome to the forum. df Quote
peevee Posted October 29, 2016 Report Posted October 29, 2016 no contact info in the ad, so I PM'd you a couple times. Maybe it's sold. Quote
