  • We got 1BC back from her extensive annual inspection and repairs at TAS!! This was a fun Twin Cessna formation flight from Defiance, Ohio (DFI) back home to Chicago Aurora Airport (ARR). Not every day you see a formation of Twin's flying through the class Bravo airspace. :)

      I'm sure that TAS is designing their new ski chalet in the Swiss Alps. It's guys like this that make it happen. More power to TAS! Safety is number one, and a good pilot should be prepared to pay alot of money to keep his bird safe and airworthy.

    That was a fun flight, Kevin! TAS did a good job on your annual, definitely experts on twin Cessnas. The video reminded me of a flight I made in my 310C a few years ago, when I caught up to my buddy in his V35A-TC Bonanza throttled back a few inches, and flew alongside him for a while, but then throttled back up to normal cruise and left him behind (at 9,500'). I didn't have a camera at hand, so missed a pic of a perfect reflection of his Bonanza in the glass of my manifold pressure guage. It is surprising how fast a 310 in proper rig is, I typically true 180-185 knots on 20-22 GPH anywhere between 8,000 and 12,000' at 20"/2300. I usually run at that power setting, but occasionally cruise at 2450/24" or max mp, but the fuel flow goes up a lot. I was running a bit late to meet up with our breakfast club flight once and ran at that setting and my friend riding eith me excitedly exclaimed that he had never seen an airspeed indicator read that high! There is no doubt that 310s are a blast to fly. lloking forward ro seeing more of your videos.
