    This is an awesome aircraft! Only wished it had sidesidesticks and pressurised cabin. Even yokes would be fine I guess. If i win the lotto, i have been thinking, what kind of ga airplane would i buy, cirrus and Cessna look good, but diamond might be just the answer. Can't wait to win the lotto Haha

    As a rule thump - We say, that we will loose VHF up to FL140 when crossing the ice between Kulusuk and Kangerlussuaq. Great vid by the way :D

      We normally, as a rule of thumb, only say rule of thump when there is a lot of turbulence.

    Nice. It would be great if you could order the episodes in the playlist chronologically, so that you can watch them in sequence automatically. As it is, they are in reverse order.

      The DA62 has such a long range, they will just stay in the air for a week until next episode.

  • @juliancate7089
    @juliancate7089 4 года назад +1

    The DA62 would be the world's best light twin except for those anemic Diesel engines and lack of attitude. I hope they will develop a variant that has small turboprops and a ceiling to FL41.
