No flying in winds exceeding 10 knots, no chance of obscuring precipitation, no use of runways shorter than 5,000 feet, no risk of encountering darkness or lowering ceilings. Constant manipulation of attitude and power while chasing errant airspeed are signs that a CFI needs to step in to stabilize things. 1 priority.

The more challenging the flight conditions–low ceilings, rain, crosswinds, high density, etc–the higher the anxiety level. A calm landing differs from a headwind landing versus a crosswind landing. Results from a crosswind landing. The sudden spike of the heart rate correspondes with the cowling event.

These engines are arranged in four pods beneath the wings, a design that not only provides the necessary thrust but also helps delay stall onset, contributing to the aircraft’s stability and performance. Additionally, the main landing gear can pivot up to 20 degrees, significantly improving crosswind landing capabilities.

Combining the Gweduck’s advanced hull with its counter-rotating propellers means differential power allows crosswind water taxiing impossible in floatplanes along with higher hull-in-water taxiing speeds. “We Precisely what the single-engine ceiling is, the team can’t say. “We A not so obvious advantage is taxiing.
