- Well, we finally got the Coyote to its new home in PEI. It took a little longer than we wanted due to weather but it all worked out great in the end.
-----------
Rans S6 Coyote
Rotax 582 with a 2 blade Warp Drive prop at 13.5° of pitch
Cruise: 85-90 MPH
Stall: 40 with the flaps up
Fuel capacity: 18.5 US gallons
Fuel burn: about 4.5 gallons per hour
That was some really awesome looking scenery and a great ride-a-long. That is a pretty decent trip for an ultralight and i'm sure the tailwind was much appreciated.
Not quite as pretty as your scenery but it was still fun to look at. When you are releasing another video?
@@mmatt I just finished the installation and break in of the new rings today. After it has been off the plane for about five months and I finally got around to putting new base gaskets on it. Plus new rings and a de-carbon while I had her all disassembled. So I'm hoping to get some flying in and do something fun next weekend! Finally....
Sweet! Make sure to roll cameras! :-)
Will do, I'm so excited to go flying again.
...Kind of sorry the trip wasn't longer.....Had my Ercoupe ferried from sault Ste. Marie to Chilliwack, B.C. when I moved back west....I had to trailer a sailboat full of belongings, so I missed that chance to fly across....I was surprised he flew into the USA to go south of Lake Superior, but, to each his own I guess....(1979)....
WOW great video. Awesome view of the country. Now I really want to learn to fly. Thanks
Born and raised Islander here.
For those unfamiliar with Summerside Airport, it used to be Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Summerside until it closed in 1991 due to federal budget cuts. It opened as an air station back in 1941 and was training Commonwealth air force pilots until the end of the war.
I remember going to amazing airshows here when i was a kid back in the 80’s. When it closed I think there were 2 different squadrons operating at the time: the 880 Maritime Reconnaissance Sqn ( The Bear Cats); and the 413 Transport and Rescue Sqn (Tusker). They performed SAR duties for the Maritime provinces.
Thanks for sharing! :-)
Thanks for taking us along! Very beautiful scenery. :)
Cool stuff! I instructed in Fredericton for 5 years and really enjoyed flying around Woodstock and the area around PEI.
. Great fun. Enjoyed part 3 very much buddy. Love the adventure- hope you can do more. Cheers :)
Matt....again, entertaining and informative videos!! As a south east Texas flyer, it's great to see some other scenery!! Keep it up!!
Wow, what a cool trip Matt.
Really enjoyed this.
I'll bet you could smell the salt air as you neared the strait?
Yup, mighty cool trip.
Thanks...
Great flight Matt, I have been away for 3 weeks and I am just getting caught up on your videos now. I watched all 3 of this flight and enjoyed them all buddy thanks for posting them.. Down River Tim (Oak Point Area)
Love your videos Matt very interesting and informative also educational.I was 75 yrs this July and always wanted to fly but finances stopped me.keep upthe great work.
beautiful country
Try the fried clams at the Frosty Treat Dairy Bar in PEI. They were fantastic from what I recall a few years back.
Great videos! I felt I was riding along with you. Back in 1992 i made a similar trip from Quebec city to Bay d' Espoir, Newfoundland. It was a 13hr total air time flight in my newly purchased Aeronca Chief( partly due to an unscheduled stop in Stephenville.) Before flying across the gulf, I tented under the wing in Port Hawksbury. A local pilot saw me fly over and assuming correctly I was going to land, came out and took me out to a local eatery before my leg the next morning.
It was the trip of a lifetime! As I began the long journey over the water, I kept telling myself St. Pauls Island was a landing spot. Navigation was map and compass in additional to an unreliable loran C. For that section I climbed to 8500' I kept telling myself the engine does not know it is over water!
So awesome. Livin' the dream!
Great trip Man.....congrats. 👏👏👏
Familiar sights. Spent a week in Summerside in July in my RV-9A. Was parked in the big hangar at the arrival end of 23 and did a few local sightseeing trips in the area. My arrival was direct from Fredericton (customs stop, trip was from Alberta) and I had 1800' ceilings for the whole leg except it was clear over the strait. Apart from the wind, I liked the CYSU airport. That big 200' wide runway takes some getting used to. Great video.
Always nice to land on old military runways. We did several RPAS exercises there last year. Great spot !
Been a while since I saw the island from the air. Nice video man.
Beautiful flight. I bet you listened to the engine very closely after going feet wet.
I love your channel
Indeed, at 7500 feet you can make it . . . for shore. Welcome to Prince Edward Island; what we lack in runways we make up for in potato fields!
I was just there for vacation. I love going there. I go every year
Super cool! my place is about 15min from the windmills
That first water crossing was Shepody Bay, the thin piece of land was Rockport then not sure if you crossed over Cumberland Basin or not... but that's where NB meets NS.
And as you crossed Rockport, you would have flew over my RV.
Which I was at on Wednesday.
Cool!
I'm surprised the owner didn't want to make the trip with you😋
Hey, my ancestors and relative are from PEI!
Damn sucks I missed you literally live across from the airport. Can see the airstrip from my bedroom window I also paved the runway last year for work. Would have been nice to meet you :( maybe next time if you come back here for some reason lol
Literally see my house on the left side of the screen at 1743
I should be back sometime. Email me your contact info so I can let you know (if I remember...) lol
Welcome to pei
Kinda sounded like a 2 stroke on shut down to me.
Nice
Gotta love PEI, only problem is theres only one airstrip lol
Cable Head near souris
Beautiful! You have your up'n'over rating? 🛩️😋
Sorry, never mind , scrolled down after video was over and saw the planes info list.
Solid videos Matt thanks. What's your opinion on the Coyote? Seems to fly quite well. I'm considering going light sport after coming from 172 ownership. Thanks!
For what it is, I like it. It's not the style of plane that I prefer but it flew really nicely.
С начала лайк потом смотрю !
Cool flight. I flew Billies Kitfox over to Havelock for a flyin back in 93 or 94 Curious why you didnt just call Moncton and ask for permission to fly thru. I cant imagine them refusing even without a transponder.
I didn't even consider that they'd allow it without a transponder....
dear Matt .. I love all ur 3 videos of the plane delivery - love the casual chat.
I have one minor query - u answered a question: the owner didn't fly the plane himself becoz he was a new pilot + uncomfortable to do so - my question is: he could hv flown with you right..? It would hv been an invaluable experience ..
Yes he could have and he wanted to, but he didn't have anyone to drive his car home for him.
@@mmatt dear Matt .. tQ for kindly replying to my humble query .. u r a kind youtuber ..
btw .. I am from Malaysia n flying in the country is mainly for business, not a hobby.
An ultralight would be enough for me .. if I am in the western continent, I would have a flying licence already .. all the best n may u be safe always .. 👍
oldest pilot in canada lives next to me from tryon pei at 90 years old
Matt...you do a great job with you vids. What camera are you using for headmount?
Contour+ 1080P HD
Still have this plane?
I was wondering what power plant you had in that coyote , guessing 80 hp rotax.
It's a 2 stroke, so more like 65 than 80.
Are you ever afraid you might fly through a big ring of some kind in the sky and be in a different world and you couldn't find your way back ?
Sorry for the snarky comment below. Upon further reflection , it was uncalled for. Love watching your videos they are great.
No worries dude. :-)
Could you not file a VFR flight plan and take a more direct route through the controlled airspace? (Just realized you probably don't have a Mode C transponder...so never mind)
That's exactly the reason why I couldn't.
Did you take anything for water survival on this trip?
No. I specifically planned my route to be within gliding distance of land at all times.
What are your thoughts on the s6? I’m looking at a 2009 with 912ul engine
It flew great! I really liked it
Hey matt, what navigation do you use on the phone.. just curious
Pat Kilmurray Matt answered this in the first video in this series I believe.
@@esalenchik ok thanks buddy. I'll take a look..
Interested in what survival gear you carry on XC over rough terrain with low temperatures.
I dress in layers and usually bring hat, gloves, and an additional coat, I have 2 knives, 2 firestarting methods, high calorie snacks, a signal mirror, and most importantly, a detailed flight itinerary given to at least 2 responsible people before I leave with pre-scheduled check in points.
Thanks for responding. I enjoy long XC flying and always interested in learning how fellow flyers prepare.
No. I was always within gliding distance of land so no flotation needed. A PLB would have been a good idea though but I don't have one. If I do more long distance flights in the future I might get one.
What is the app you are running on your phone?
Canada Topo Maps by Atlogis
Hai Matt , what is the engine? rotax or other?
Rotax 582
at 18 minutes 10 seconds no there not lobster traps there oyster cages and yep im a fisherman
Matt I'm just curious why the guy that actually owns the airplane is not flying at himself?
He only just got his pilot's licence and wasn't comfortable doing such a long distance cross country trip yet.
@@mmatt I would've done the same thing also. Get someone with a few hours of flying and more experience.
I did the same thing a few years back when I bought a X-Air hanuman out of woodstock and got Jack Lavender to fly it to me in Havelock. was just not comfortable doing that first leg by myself.
What year is this Airplane ?
Sorry, I'm not sure. Early 90s I think...
Is this a 103 ultralight? or is it more than 256 lbs?
I'm in Canada so Part 103 doesn't apply to me. In the US it would be considered an LSA.
Or experimental
If your flying a LSA in America do you need a license as I know the Ultralights do not require them? Thank You 🙏🏼
@@Max_Krypto sure do! America has more strict rules than Canada. Anything above 254lbs would require a sport license. Not terribly hard to get though
Hey was that an app to track your speed and stuff? If so what app were you using?
I use Canada Topo Maps by Atlogis
It's not an aviation app but it works for me.
Ok thanks :)
Love your videos btw keep it up
When you fly west do you cross the US border?
Yes, that would be correct.
@@mmatt Wise guy :) I mean a video on that process might be interesting - Are there special procedures, how easy is it, is it worth the hassle or easier to fly around...
Oh, lol
Maybe once COVID restrictions lift I could do a flight across the border and film the process. Great idea. :-)
Is that a Nazi emblem on your knit cap?
LOL, no. That's the West Coast Choppers logo.
Im getting tired of hearing about your camera batteries. Please buy some additional batteries.
Even if I did it wouldn't help since I can't change them during flight; none of the planes I fly have an autopilot. If you'd like to support the channel by sending me some better cameras with a longer battery life I'd happily use them though... ;-)
