Default RE: I am not worthy!

You guys are great, I have had offers of all kind to help get the 38 in the air and do it as safe as possible. Fred from RI , I got you E-mail and When its time I will E-mail you, still have to finish it though.

I have read Twin mans post on Twins, I think we are going with the gyros, the reason is that it will give us just a little more time to react to a problem, but I think my first course of action will be ENGINE RELIABILITY. I think we all agree that if I can keep both engines running, I will have eliminated about 75% of what makes 38s crash. Another good piece of info from Twin-man was take-off speed, I have the 38 on flite sim and if I kill an engine on takeoff and have a good ground roll, I can get it in the air and some care get it back on the ground, but it I try it at a low ground speed, it goes into a flat spin SO FAST its not funny.

Again I appreciate all the info on getting it the air safe,

Thanks
Ron
