    If you're loving what you're doing, more power to you! Those looked like some pretty solid wheel landings to me; you probably saw (and felt) a lot more than I did, but solid touchdowns, no bounces, a very precise (and as crisp as I've seen) tail-up at touchdown... and Woodstock gets up and off in a hurry even at altitude!
    Have ALL THE FUN!

    Awesome seeing you n Woodstock flying again. Really do like that plane. Great lines and you switting to the tail drag I think was perfect for the look. Congrads with the new job! 👍🏻👍🏻

    Like other folks have said, nice to see your videos again. Your career path sounds great. I hope to get my GlaStar back in the air next spring after a long down period and some upgrades I added. Power Flow and Amsafe. Keep the videos coming.

    Great to see you back Amy. Always enjoy you taking the time to share your travels and aviation experiences with us. That takes a lot of work I’m sure. Sounds like your days are extremely full and you love what you do. That’s the most important thing. I can remember of myself those two plus years of working a full time job during the day and attending A&P school in the evening five days a week. LONG DAYS!!!!!! Well worth the experience in the end. Anyway, thanks for sharing with us all and take care!

    Great video. Desert area is something different! Oh and don't be shy, don't feel embarrased, and don't feel the need to explain to the world why you don't like to be in the video so much. Just do what you like and you're good at it too!

    Just purchased a 2001 Star. I was watching you vids prior, and they helped me make my mind up on purchasing my own🤗
    My question to you is surrounding the tail wheel and mains. I am wanting to convert to tail also. What kind of tail wheel set up did you go with, and are your main gear stock? What size tires/wheels are you using? Thx for putting out some great content Amy!

    • @amywhite375
      @amywhite375  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hey! I used the T-3 suspension from Airframes Alaska, a Matco tailwheel, and I’m running stock main landing gear with 8.50x6 tires at the moment. Hope this helps. Congrats on the new plane!

      The company is working through some bugs. I have to send them back in soon for a hardware update. They're a novel idea, but I wish I had gone with G5's. They're neat, but not all that reliable--which is the biggest thing you want out of an instrument.

    I didn't see anything on the runway to prompt the go around, did the camera just not pick something up, or did the tower have some other reason for the go around?
    At any rate, it's a good thing to practice, so at least it happened while you were out practicing anyway.
