If anyone wants a 501 of their own, the one in the background is owned by my friend and is extremely nice. Has ADSB. Only downside is no Freon Air Conditioning. It is for sale.

Bryan my friend, that would require tailwheel experience. Does that Mustang even have a rudder?

Yup. I think there's a button somewhere for that. I think it's between the wifi switch and the XM radio. They put all the critical systems right there.

Below a MU-2 Marquise video landing on a grass strip in Brazil: https://youtu.be/qc0j_0qFukYUsername Protected wrote: There is no grass strip I would fly a TBM into unless it was an emergency. Wheels too small and high pressure. Tire pressure is your best indication of turf runway compatibility. In rough terms, the tire pressure will be your max contact pressure on the ground. For the MU2, that's ~55 PSI for the nose tires and ~65 PSI for the mains. The low pressure comes from large wheels. You can't land on a truly soft field, but it does well generally. A TBM is about double those numbers (130 PSI for the mans?) which means it really isn't suitable for turf. Attachment: mu2-on-grass.jpg Mike C.
