bnicolette Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 A short clip of my wife and I flying from Teterboro, NJ to Latrobe, PA after a couple nights in NYC. She is comfortably nestled in the back sleeping soundly. Love our Mooney!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marauder Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Nice video! What was your TAS? it looked like you were screaming along. When you do your next video, could you do a longer segment on the JPI. Really never seen one in action. Thanks for sharing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Pleisse Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Looks like a nice smooth flight Brett. Lot of snow up there!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bnicolette Posted January 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Interesting that your wife prefers to fly in the back... It depends. But no matter where she is sitting when in the little airplane................she is sleeping. If on the corporate airplane.......she is drinking.

jetdriven Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Thats 169 KTAS by my calculation. Either you have one fast J or your alt static is open. You are really moving along! At that ROP power setting, out plane will only do 157-159 KTAS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The temp setting on the TAS correction window was off by two degrees. But I figure it was around 164 kts. My percentage power also needs tweaked on the JPI a little bit. It is not correct. It was right at standard temp so I figure it was close to 75% power? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PMcClure Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Nice flight! My wife falls asleep every flight. As soon as we are above 5000' she is out. I had her try oxygen once and she stayed awake. But she didn't like the fuss so won't try it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
