Walking Around the V-Twin
This video is about Walking Around my V-Twin, Star Bird.
It's not a walk around inspection, but gives the viewer a chance to view the aircraft from a 360 degree perspective.
This way, you get to see all the beautiful lines of this gorgeous airplane!

V-Twin Start, Taxi, Takeoff
Просмотров 5068 месяцев назад
This is a flight with Velocity Chief Pilot "Ingrid" at the Velocity Factory in Sebastian, Florida. She had been focusing her time with training pilots on the single engine Velocity. Now, she was ready to start twin training. This was a fun ride to introduce her to the V-Twin flight characteristics.
V Twin Takeoff and Landing

This a short video taken from the outside perspective of the tail camera. It includes a takeoff and landing at the Sebastian Airport. It ends with a taxi into the Velocity Completion Center hangar. Warning: DO NOT taxi your Velocity into any hangar unless you are 100% certain there are no items can can get sucked into your props. That would certainly ruin your day. :(

This is a video of my sister-in-law's first flight in a general aviation airplane. It is also her first time to ever create a video. She used iMovie for this first effort. I think she did an awesome job.

    I love your plane. I think I've scrolled through every page on your site, dreaming of being able to own something this cool some day in the future. Great work and thank you for sharing.

      You are quite welcome. I’m glad you found it useful. By the way, I’ve just finished moving my “Starbird” website to: Starbird.Quest I’ll keep the old one for a while, and set it to redirect to the new one.

    Nice build and paint! -- and I'm not even fan of butterscotch leather... I still don't know the purpose of the little step looking tab behind the canard at the inboard side? Is it a trim tab? assist handle,VG? IDK, TIA

    I’m curious, what’s the fuel burn and TAS at say 10500. Also what’s the full fuel payload? I visited the factory when I was in Florida, I love this twin.

    I'm looking to build a twin Velocity aircraft, currently own and fly a Mooney. Would it be possible for me to fly in and talk with you guys about this aircraft of yours? I think for the $, this is better than a Baron or a Seneca. Thanks and fly safely.

      Yes. There is contact method on Starbird's website: www.legacy-innovations.com Click on "More" We can set something up. :)

    I wonder if the Velocity landing approaches seem more "bumpy" than other aircraft? It seems to me that many of the Velocity landings I have watched on RUclips seem to be more exciting than the other planes I am interested in.

    • @Starbird-654
      @Starbird-654 2 года назад

      I think it was mentioned is the video, but, in any case, it was a very bumpy day. A bit sporting, in fact. No, I don't think the V-Twin is any more "bumpy" on approach than any of the other airplanes that I have flown. I can't speak to the single engine Velocity as I haven't flown in one.

    "Excellent job" is putting it mildly! I was very surprised by the very good blend of intercom and ambient audio. Being able to hear the occupants AND the engines is something that several channels I follow with several tens of thousands of subscribers still struggle with. I've seen a lot of great first videos like this on brand new channels that just seem to be forgotten afterwards, so please don't let that happen here! You've got talent and you can definitely grow from here!
