    Thank you for making the video, truly appreciated.
    It’s great to see the passion and enthusiasm of all involved.
    The VL3 is an astounding aircraft with stunning lines.
    It’s moving to know this is happening and I can only believe they’ll excel with future aircraft.
    I can’t wait to see what’s coming.

    This is indeed the kind of small aircraft that interests me. TH-cam is loaded with features about flying jeeps. Kudos to those guys for what they do. But the VL3 is the kind of flying I enjoy and want to see here.

  • @hm250
    @hm250 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Awesome aircraft. I have been looking into these. Would be good to get the company to explain what they have done to improve the spin recovery of the aircraft. There does seem to be a rather high accident rate in the past. Lots of info on the net on this.

    • @ForFunFlyer
      @ForFunFlyer  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't know what they improved exactly, but I stalled their 912 version a couple of times and was pretty stable. Of course, we didn't do any self induced spins, but the plane didn't have nasty wing drop habits at all. If you want to know more, send them a message with your questions. I know they're more than happy to explain it all.

    What does this model remind me of? Maybe a Lancair? Would be interesting to see how they compare.

    • @ForFunFlyer
      @ForFunFlyer  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, I believe it does look like a Lancair? Interesting question! So the comparison should be power to speed ratio and to see what the same geometry (only bigger) would do, speed wise?

    With 3 guys they could make 3 planes in a year. With 125 people they make 55 planes. It's a simple plane, it should be possible to improve that speed quite a bit.
