RE: GP Super Stearman
[size=2][/size][size=3][/size]Speaking of ground handling, I have the Great Planes PT 17 version, I electrified it with a 160 size electric motor, it flies very well but is an absolute horror to take off(paved runway not grass). Considering using a gyro on the rudder, moved from grass run ways in NJ to Arizona(no grass here). This plane defies logic will ground loop in a heart beat. Bob

RE: The real reason for the FAA hassle
To ; 2walla I suspected for awhile that the AMA thing was kind of self serving in regards to its self congratulatory accolades on the bill exemptions(ITSELF). I am naturally suspicious about any public or private agency. Can you get me some hard facts about the demo factors with the FAA? Not trying to flame the AMA but would like to know more about this topic. For instance .....why was no one ever critical of all of the utube videos about guys flying all over cities ,buildings ,landmarks large structures etc,etc? BTW I would like to mention that all of the responses to my post were pertinent and very well meant (and intelligent).

RE: The real reason for the FAA hassle
Mr. AV8R-I do indeed despise big government and all that it and its supporters attempt to throttle the common citizen with. Didnt really want to start a political battle but ..the reality is that we(US citizens) are governed by an elitist corp of "Royals" regardless whether they are Republicans or Democrats.

RE: The real reason for the FAA hassle
If what you say is true........then why was the AMA even brought into the whole morass at all? BIG GOVERNMENT BREEDS BIG GOVERNMENT. I still submit they are watching us mere mortals.

RE: The real reason for the FAA hassle
Part of the real issue is; the FAA has gone around and issued almost carte blanche permission to use and abuse air space and then as an after thought has decided to attempt to legislate the AMA and its members to the ground.

RE: GP Stearman
Hi Jeff,You say that you have an electric converted Great Planes PT17. Im thinking of the same can you give me some more input into what equipment you used ie. motor,speed control batteries etc. Also how did it fly and what prop used and flight time.
