Extreme short field landing in SR22 demonstration 808'

By
Demonstration of 808' landing in Cirrus SR22. Super short field distance 808'. At kHWO north Perry runway 10L for P1 taxi way turnoff.  Winds from 00 at 010kts 
Weight:
Pilot + plus passenger, luggage,, and 56 gallons fuel.

Landing was 04/09/2017 730pm.

DISCLAIMER:  If you are not a-highly proficient Cirrus pilot/CFI, do not try this, it can be dangerous/deadly. If you stall the plane that close to the ground you will not have time to recover. Some hints:
CFI TIPS
  • MIXTURE RICH in case you need to quickly add power
  • Control your rate of descent with POWER, not with PITCH! Pulling back on yoke at this low airspeed will induce a stall.
  • Control your airspeed with PITCH.
  • Use an abnormally low approach profile (not standard 3 degrees), you should see red-over-red on VASI. You should be flying almost horizontal when you approach your contact point.
  • You will need to ADD POWER at last segment or else the plane will bounce increasing your stopping distance.
  • FLAPS UP immediately on contact and smoothly apply brakes.

How to get anything on EBAY for free (and get away with it)

By
This article explains how to get anything for free on Ebay. This is very simple, proven and guaranteed to work. You can get, for example, an IPhone 4, a 64GB IPad 2, or even a Macbook Pro laptop for free. 1. If the seller does not use delivery confirmation, you already won. Just tell ebay you never received the item. They will always side with you (bhe buyer) and refund your money, including shipping, AT THE SELLER'S EXPENSE. There is nothing the seller can do. Ebay will not investigate further, they close the case.  I have hard numerous reports of this happening.  See this facebook thread  and this article . The buyer now has no item, no money, and in addition he is out the cost of shipping. Totally screwed. 2. If you are dealing with a savvy seller, they will use delivery confirmation. Don't worry, you can still get your item for free. After you receive the item, open a case and claim the item broken. Let's use an IPhone 4 as an example. Open a claim and say the me...

Why a SR22 leaseback is the worst financial decision an airplane owner can make

By
Airplane leaseback seem like a really good idea - your airplane becomes a business, generates income, which pays for maintenance, insurance, storage, and might even put a few bucks in your pocket. You'll hear this from flight schools, FBOs, airplane brokers and airplane manufacturers. The proposal I received for leaseback on my own plane looked very good, $72,000 income per year! The ugly truth is you leasebacks are a terrible financial decision. You're better off to park your plane in a hangar and not fly it at all. This was the proposal I received: Profit calculation for G2 SR22 in KFRG $300/hr rental rate -20% management fee $60 $240/hr income 300 hrs flown = $72,000 income per year First, there are some baseline increases due to more expensive commercial insurance and higher cost tiedown and required maintenance. These numbers are for an SR22 that was to be based out of KFRG. Annual fixed-cost increases to go to the flight school Flight sch...
