Doug, I flew F-16s and just wrote a 200 page book on this. So not sure if you intended that towards me, or just amplifying the comments. Check it out, I think you'll be impressed. :bud:


I have seen references to your book here, but I am not a Kindle guy and I hate my Ipad. I try to never take it out of the airplane, because every time it does, I crack the screen... :sad: I'll have to wait for the paper version.

I did look at the documents page on your website. I assume the speeds on the Bonanza Smart Card are best glide? The chart is not labeled. You quickly see why gliders carry water, amazing the difference gross weight makes in Best glide speed.

surely they have some sort of e-book to print on demand type thing right? where we'd have a delayed shipping but they'd print it as we ordered?

i don't do ebooks either but want to read

You could also run Kindle on your primary computer (PC).

Thanks guys. Sorry for the thread drift.

They do have a Print on Demand (POD) option. It's $2k to set it up. :thumbdown:

Just grab a copy on Apple iBooks! :thumbup: I literally cover all of this information in great detail. Thanks for the support guys! :cheers:

Michael, didn't you say you were going with the black and not the fawn color for the seats? Either way it's going to be spectacular. I've never had a chance to take a ride in a Lancair. Looks like it would be very exciting. Larry

These are the parts that came with the airplane. I modified the seats (added the high back headrests) to copy a Porsche 911 seat. Built the armrests from scratch.

I can't wait to see it put back together!
