Ok guys, I need some tips on flying the C337

[Gregg_Seipp 573]

I just got it and you open the plane and...woh...tons of stuff. I need checkride info. Help!

Well, I was digging around and found some notes on the C337 from a RW owner...checklists and procedures. In the middle of it I found his procedures for flying patterns (see below). A bunch of other things...steep turns, stalls, stalls in turns, instrument approaches, engine out patterns. Not sure if anybody wants it. I pdf'ed it for myself. If you want a copy PM me your email.

Hey Gregg. Have a good look around here as the guys have come up with lot's of things to make her better. I have Turbo'd mine and it makes for a much better aircraft - their was a real life Turbo model so it's OK :Whistle:

 

And thanks for the info.

Hi Alex.

 

Go back to the main page for the C337H and look down the list for the topic "T337H" you will find all that you need there.

 

See how you get on there.

 

As for fuel burn ... Yes, there is lots of it :P
