That is just my average of the on the nose component. Seen it over 100kts and 15. Course there will be bad days. Will take quite a plane to make 900nm with 8 adults 99.9% of the time. But 50% vs. 90% might well be the spread between two turboprops.

A few hundred miles through Mexico transporting a plane on a flat bed....nothing to draw attention here. What could go wrong? Fly it out....much faster. Leave it to Adam to find a deal!

If you find a way, I'll buy an engine off you as a spare!

Wow, I assumed that thing would just get towed out of the hangar over to the jungle at some point and that would be that. t
TJ when you saw it I think it had been there for a decade or two already.

TJ when you saw it I think it had been there for a decade or two already. Those were fun trips  I'd fly it.... get the flaps down to at least 5, leave it stiff legged, replace the fuel and batteries and give her a go. Submit the NASA form while taxing in to customs at Tucson and just pretend like you mistakenly flew the wrong Mu2 home. Sowwy!
