RE: Hangar 9 40 Size Piper Pawnee!!!

I have a 90 deg. adapter on my .72. Balance was not a problem. I added no weight anywhere. Pilot is a Barbie. 14 x 6 prop.

RE: Hangar 9 40 Size Piper Pawnee!!!

Hey guys,

I'm seriously thinking of getting out of the hobby. If anyone in the DFW area is interested, I have my Piper Pawnee that will be the first to go. Y'all know how great a plane it is....

When I first got my plane, i noticed the right wing had 3 ribs cracked. I called horizon and the guy told me to send in the broken wing and they would send me a new one. Well, shipping was going...

RE: Hangar 9 40 Size Piper Pawnee!!!

I don't believe I would have picked one up for 279. They have other kits for 279 that include retracts, etc. I'm glad I got one when I did. I enjoy flying it.

RE: Hangar 9 40 Size Piper Pawnee!!!

I've got 3 planes I fly right now.

A very old (18 years +) high wing sport model with a OS .46 on it. This plane just screams. It used to be my wifes plane until I confiscated it. Wilma...

Three seperate flights today. 2 this morning and one this evening. This plane flies great!. To top it off, a full size pawnee flew right over my property on the way to a job I guess. That was...

RE: Hangar 9 40 Size Piper Pawnee!!!

Yes, and Yes.

I didn't put a Satito .91 in this plane because of it. I settled on a Saito .72 and it flies great with that engine and a 14x5 prop.

RE: Hangar 9 40 Size Piper Pawnee!!!

If you are full throttle and put down flaps, it affects it slightly. Anything less, you have to think if you put the flaps down at all. It makes a slight difference in the descent rate, but...

RE: Hangar 9 40 Size Piper Pawnee!!!

Covering Blows. But monokote is much better. I used Paintable Coverite fabric a couple years ago on a biplane and I loved it! It never had a problem like the films do.

RE: Hangar 9 40 Size Piper Pawnee!!!

The OS 70 shouldnt be much different than the Saito .72. I'm running my Saito with a 14x5 prop and it does rather well. Pilot. Barbie. Ken is slightly tall, though several people are making ...

RE: Hangar 9 40 Size Piper Pawnee!!!

I came across a Pawnee today in Larry's Hobby shop. Just North of Houston on I-45 and 1960. If anyone was still looking for one or waiting for one. There's your chance.

RE: Hangar 9 40 Size Piper Pawnee!!!

Great day to fly. Took my Pawnee up for several flights this morning. After experimenting with different props on my Saito .72, I ended up liking the 14x5 the best. The plane is a real gem to...

RE: Hangar 9 40 Size Piper Pawnee!!!

Mine seems a bit sluggish with a 13 x 6 prop on it. i don't know which direction to go? 13 x 8, 14 x 6, 14 x 8? What is too much for this engine. The fuselage is so large, I'm wondering how...

Thanks for the encouragement, I think I will take your advice on the ultracote. I need to run by the LHS to pick up an exhaust extension anyway. With the Saito .72, I got the muffler under the...

Maybe there...
