Default DP Extra LAST Flight

Falcon - Been There, Done That. It was an okay airplane, but I didn't like the spin entry and snap characteristics. May have just been me, but I prefer a slower, and cleaner entry into the spin than I could get with my AW 29%....

It was also the first large airplane I lost to elecronic failure; the ONLY piece of anything not tied together was the connector going from the switch harness to the regulator. Yep. It worked it's way loose....POW. A "rolling takeoff", without a "departure climbout".....
