Follow along inside the cockpit of the #3 Smokin' Hot Pitts™ as Sam Swift flies in the final race of the 2022 National Championship Air Races in Reno, NV (aka, the "Reno Air Races"). It's the first time for a National Championship for Sam Swift but hopefully not the last!
IS THE RUNWAY TOO SHORT?

I flew the SuperSTOL with David Williams as he gave me all the pointers for landing it at our friend, Gary's, 925' strip. It was a blast and the SuperSTOL is quite a capable short-field airplane. Even on my first attempts, I only used a fraction of the length available, and that was landing with a tailwind.

    Match the flaps to full aileron deflection for best TO performance in a Navion. No question about it.

    • @flyboycpa
      @flyboycpa 3 года назад

      Thomas, sorry...I just saw this comment. Yes, that is my wacky altimeter. It never does it any other time except for in the race. I dunno why. It makes it hard to maintain altitude as I fly instruments around the pylons. :)

      Hübsch Feli , very close. It is a highly-modified S-1D (four ailerons) but for racing the top two ailerons are blocked from moving and the slave struts removed (less drag).
