Now that's a Trike that I could get up in the air about!

18,000 ft ceiling, and 190 K true - side stick, fixed gear, leather, and full panel. Only SLIGHTLY more than a new Spyder…..

But the wheels are in the wrong places... :shocked:
It's a reverse-reverse trike! :gaah:

Is that like saying its bass-ackward?

With me alone, the wheels are only important for 244 feet……

Very cool!! :clap:One of my faves. The other half (and my wallet) will only tolerate so many toys at a time though. And she isn't about to give up the motor coach just yet.

Need to make plans for Oshkosh, if you haven't already.hyea: Lotsa good stuff to be had there. :chat:

I love it...:firstplace:

Strong tailwinds & smooth landings...

Is the same SLIGHTLY as the service guy at the dealer says, the total bill is SLIGHTY more then the estimate. I sure hope it does not into Limp Mode.

Nothing "limp" about this toy - came off the deck at 1600fpm yesterday and into the CAVU at just over 11K. Hit 70 knot cross winds, and the 300 was as smooth as silk. In the old Cessna, it would have taken me a fortnight to get to 11K, and I would have needed my Spyder helmet, due to my head bouncing off the fuselage…. I think putting a 1800cc motor in my RT might give the same kind of ride...

However, the Cessna handled grass strips really well, and the 300 is "at your own risk" (read "don't)…. and the 300's stick takes a LOT less input, than the Cessna's yolk….
