The airplane I was going to buy crashed in front of me.
I can't make this up if I tried, I was supposed to bring this gorgeous plane home and the owners belly landed it on the runway in front of us 🤷‍♂️. Guess that landing gear warning light wasn't lying (hence why we made the call not to fly it). Everyone was safe. Unfortunately for the airplane, will be another story, not sure if it will be fixed or parted. It is unfortunate, as the plane was a true beauty with only 63 hours on the fresh engine and gorgeous Dynon HDX avionics.
Back on the market searching for a plane.

    That sucks. There is likely substantial airframe damage, and the new 63 hour engine was probably destroyed by the prop strike. If the $100K in avionics was for a video game panel, then that was already wasted.

    The R129 is a much better car and daily driver. It also looks far better in my opinion and worth buying for the fully automatic roof alone let alone all the improved tech and build quality.

    It has a low center of gravity with the opposed cylinders cancelling out vibrations with the flywheel acting as a gyroscope further stabilizing the ride, especially around corners. All other bikes with the vertical, non-opposed cylinders mounted up high give a totally different ride, with the rear cylinder obviously not getting as much cooling as the front one. These BMWs are _touring bikes_ you take across the country, through Europe or around the world. That R50/5 probably gets around 50 to 75 MPG. _Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance_ features a 1972 R75/5.

    WOW!! Enjoyed the ride with you. Brought back fond memories of my ONLY real flying experience in T34B at Saufley Field (Pensacola) while in NAVY Flight Surgeon Training in 1973. Students always flew from forward position, Instructor in rear. I enjoyed learning to Start, Run up, Taxi, takeoff, climb, level flight, 90kt descent, enter pattern & finally landing & taxi to line. I did NOT enjoy Stalls, Spins, loops, inversion or any other aerobatics. I was grateful to be just a doctor to the fleet pilots (I was assigned to an airborne mine clearing squadron [HM12] flying Sikorsky RH53D) but gained tremendous respect for Naval Aviators and pilots in general.

    Great video. Great Truck. I have a 1987 D21 SE V6 with the VG30i that I bought brand new in Boulder Nissan, "Colorado" ($12,264.00) and have had the greatest experience with it. Best damned vehicle I've ever owned. Has never left me high and dry. (I'm 62 BTW) I also will never part with it. I'm gonna hand it over to my only daughter as she spent many a mile in the back jump seats and I taught her how to drive a "stick shift" in it. (she became known as "5 speed Annie" at her high school) At 18:20... (the steering wheel pop up...) Its called "jump mode" so you can enter and exit the truck easily. Thanks for sharing.

    This reminds me of the time my dad was working on our plane at the Palo Alto airport. A guy in a twin was on landing approach with his gear up. My dad watched as he made a perfect landing, on his belly. My dad jumped into his car and raced out to the plane. When the door opened, it reeked of alcohol. The guy was plastered.

    Wow.....i have never ridden in a tail dragger. Know about all the stuff you said. yea what scares the crap out of me is the loosing control of the rudder and spinning. I guess pulling back on the stick takes care of that. What would be great and I dont know if your video skills permit this, is to have a second camera fixed mounted on the wing. so we can see better. I like seeing the gauges and your point of view but also seeing the planes view would give us a better perspective of what it is like to fly that sucker. when you land and the tail drops down is also my fear. not being able to see the center line. kind of freaks me out a little. you could not tell that point of view from the head cam. Thanks also for the pre flight inspection. all important stuff.

    • @SirDrifto

      I’ll do a video of a camera down by the rudder pedals and stick and then an outside perspective camera too, so if can give the viewers an idea of footwork and stick input on take off and landing.
