    First, these videos are so beneficial to the GA community and I greatly and highly appreciate the streamlining of information among all the Walkarounds. This is probably the most critically important aspect of what you’re doing.
    Second, are these dollar amounts in terms of USD or CAD?
    Finally, I put in a vote for a Walkaround of the Cherokee 6, preferably the 300.

    Love Diamond, they are really ahead of everyone else in terms of what they're producing. If you think about it, it's kind of crazy that in 2022 other manufacturers want 500k-1MM for a plane with the same blue and red knobs that have been around since the 50s. Kudos to Diamond for pushing things forward. Now if only I had the cash for one haha....

    I don't even want to buy or own any aircraft, but is fun to see the economics of aviation. :)
    Also, did you know that used prices of aircraft have increased due to the current world situation, cos people bought up a lot of general aircraft as a hobby during the lockdowns. My coworker flies a Cessna 152, and will be a certified pilot / flight instructor soon, so we have cool aviation conversations. We talked about supercooled water, and how that can freeze on the wing, sending the plane into a stall. Best not to fly in those conditions, lol...

    Torn between this and a Sling TSi. Flown a DA-40 TDI (IO-360 powered), the Sling-2 (Sling TSi's smaller although older brother), and three different C-182.
    The C-182 I didn't like at all. Heavy, poor visibility, burns a ton of gas, while is not THAT fast nor THAT good of a useful load.
    Sling TSi haven't flown but it's a sized-up Sling-2 and the Sling-2 were super easy to fly. The only thing specific to them - reduce the cruise speeds Sling boasts by about 15%. Sling-2 do NOT cruise at 120 TAS, more like 105. And I do not believe the TSi will cruise at 150 either. More like 125.
    DA-40 are fast (140 TAS for real) and sleekest of the three. BECAUSE of the long wings you hate on here :-D They aren't heavy to move around and I can draw some guidelines on the pavement to push it in precisely, even if that means only 6" of wingtip clearance... Great visibility. And damn - IMHO they are just the sexiest-looking of the three!

    "People who have flown the Austro engine report it has less vibrations and it's quieter"
    Part of what's interesting about this to me is, it's a Diesel, and often automotive Diesel engines are marginally noisier/more vibration-prone than gas engines. But then, cars nowadays do not use engines that have more Liters (displacement) than cylinders.

    • @CompleteWalkaround
      @CompleteWalkaround  2 года назад +1

      That's a good point. Diesel engines in cars are more noisy for sure than their gasoline counterpart. I guess we can say that the scale of "roughness" goes from gas powered car engine, to diesel engine, to gas powered airplane engine
      I can say with certainty that my 6.37L Lycoming IO-390 is a heck of a lot more noisy and shaky than my gasoline car engine 😅
