@@EliAviator Normally, it's not so difficult. It varies between countries, wheather or not you need a permit for microlight aircraft to fly from one EU country into another. From the Netherlands to Germany and vice versa, there's none needed. Now with Covid, it starts to get difficult again. Hopefully everything stays open, but who knows?

Great to see you had a safe/successful journey Jolmer👌 what are the performance specs on your plane? Horse power, fuel burn, cruise speed etc. Happy flying🇿🇦
@ForFunFlyer4 жыл бұрын
Thanks! 👍🏻 Max cruise speed is 100 kts indicated at 4900 rpm @ 18 ltr/hour fuel burn. I can push it to 5100 rpm continuous, but I'd just gain 5 to 10 kts extra speed, but the burn would go up to 23 ltr/hour (estimates). All in all a very practical plane, capable of stable slow flight (demonstrated Vso is 37 kts) and a practicle cruise of 100 kts. Very happy with those numbers 😎

Well, it turned out to be the duct around the oil cooler, that was untightened at one side, due to vibrations. The duct is thin aluminium, which acted as a whistle with the air rushing in from the front. Nothing critical but very annoying 😋

Thanks Jolmer, just found your channel because I was looking for info on the Sting S4. I've seen all three of the videos in this series, very interesting. I was also watching a video on the retractable version - did you consider that one ?
@ForFunFlyer3 жыл бұрын
Thanks! 👍🏻 I would choose the fixed gear one. It is more robust, easier to maintain, less risk of a stuck gear and cheaper than retractable gear.
