Flying the spectacular VL3 Evolution from JMB Aircraft during the AirFair at Teuge Airport - S02 E18

Thanks for sharing, awesome video!

You're welcome! 👍🏻 Thanks for making such an awesome plane! 👌🏻 And for watching my video too! 😉

Watching a non-aerobatic pilot's reaction to any maneuvers past 7 degrees and 1.2 Gs is adorable. :)

[@ForFunFlyer]

Right? 😉

[@cmdmd]

@@ForFunFlyer Still an excellent experience. My first 14 hours logged (ever) were in an Extra-300L. Lol. I had about 8-9k sim hours and I STILL felt a bit uneasy with tumbles.

[@ForFunFlyer]

@@cmdmd It sure is something special, normal flight and aerobatics 😉

"The Lady from Garmin is getting nervous" 😂😂😂 Very nice video!!! 👍 - and thank you for the link! 🤙

1:55 and again 2:16 AOPA : "Always treat the propeller as though the ignition has been left on and the engine is just a hairsbreadth from starting. Avoid pulling the airplane around by the prop. Yes, this seems the perfect solution to a vexing problem of how to change the airplane’s position without having to walk around and get the tow bar, but it’s worthwhile to make the extra effort. Neither the engine nor the prop particularly benefits from the loads imposed by horsing the whole airplane around." FAA AC 20-37E "Do not push or pull on propeller blades when moving the aircraft by hand. Tow bars are specifically designed for this operation."

[@ForFunFlyer]

That's applicable to other aircraft than Rotax powered onces. But thanks for sharing.

[@dutchygirl]

This was such a cool adventure to watch, Jolmer! 🤗 I think this is one of your best vids so far! This must have been so much work in editing, but it was so great to see all the shots from different angles and with the interviews in between. Way to go! 😊🤙

[@ForFunFlyer]

Thanks! Yes, this was a 3 day edit, almost full-time 🙈 Glad you liked it! 👍🏻

[@dutchygirl]

@@ForFunFlyer Already expected this one took you more efforts, but the result is just awesome! 😊 That low pass must have been such a fantastic experience and the pull up get your heart pumped!

[@ForFunFlyer]

@@dutchygirl Yeah, it was quite the project, but that's my own fault; I just always want to improve on quality, which always takes more time. And affirm; that almost 3G pull, which I didn't expect, was a big surprise! 🙈😋

[@dutchygirl]

@@ForFunFlyer It was definitely worth waiting! 🤙 I noticed the surprise and enjoyed your smile when realizing what just happened 🤗

[@BertZengerink]

Very nice episode Jolmer, And what an awesome machine that VL3, love it!

[@ForFunFlyer]

Thanks! 👍🏻 Affirm; if you don't like the VL3, you don't like airplanes... 😉

[@DutchAviationBlog]

Once again Jolmer, an awesome video! What a thrilling ride that must have been, incredible how far MLA manufacturers have come over the last decades.

[@ForFunFlyer]

Thanks! 👍🏻 Totally agree; MLA is 'just' a light(er) variant of all the other GA. No need to treat them different, just as other high performance A/C out there...

[@flyingscotsman5032]

Jolmer, you just made my day. There hasn’t been anything on the tube for a few days but thanks to you I got my fix this morning! Fantastic video

[@ForFunFlyer]

Ah, you're so welcome! 😀 Thanks, mate! 👍🏻

[@warrenmassey4029]

Jolmner, I was looking at purchasing the VL3 with 914 motor. Now that you have flown the 915. In your opinion is it worth the extra money and reduced useful load. ??

[@ForFunFlyer]

Well, I didn't flew the 914 yet, but if I see how much power the 915 has, personally I would go with that engine. But that's just my two cents 😉

[@musoseven8218]

Cool video - lovely aeroplane. Mind you, that yellow Eurostar is a very pretty/smart aeroplane too! 👍😊

[@ForFunFlyer]

Thanks! 👍🏻 Yeah, I love the EV-97 too, very nice plane as well! 👌🏻

[@davidzuegn5898]

Great video, I am going to buy the 915, this will be a crazy plane, looking forward to your next videos after the factory tour and then flight in the 915...cheers

[@ForFunFlyer]

Thanks! 👍🏻 Did you decide to buy the 915 just now, or already placed an order? 😉

[@davidzuegn1538]

I have only just got my licence back in last month in Gold Coast Australia. Seeing your videos is a very good inspiration to confirm this is the best ultralight in the world today. I’m really looking forward to your next 2 videos on JMB. I want to take it from Golad Cias to Ayers Rock, Kakadu, Cape York then down the Great Barrier Reef. I have other big plans to go right around Australia. Can I ask you one question, did the plane feel really fast when you were flying it…I want a very fast and comfortable plane for my wife and I…thank you 🙏🏻

[@davidzuegn1538]

Gold Coast to Ayres Rock 🙏🏻

[@ForFunFlyer]

Awesome! 👍🏻 Let me put it this way; the VL3 is as comfy as an SUV and fast as a F1 car 😉

[@davidzuegn1538]

Thank you, I can’t wait to get this, I will be going 915, great video and very informative, I will let you know once I order 👍🏻

[@BenAtkinsonVideos]

What an edit. Well done! That plane is crazy cool ....and expensive ! But not for what it can do I guess. The future!

[@NickWilmans]

Caution! Obstacle ahead! Pull up!. That's the sound you constantly hear in the vicinity of Middenmeer airfield, due the high windmills in the Wieringermeer.

[@ForFunFlyer]

Ah, yes; Middenmeer is especially challenging, right? 😉

[@garrygballard8914]

Price, is that U.S.? I love ❤️ the VL3.

[@ForFunFlyer]

I believe in Euros, but I'm not sure. You can always contact them and ask? The details are in the description of the video...

[@steenolenielsen6447]

We do euros here 😀

[@PatrickAlexanderThePilot]

Nice video and demo flight, any info on price for this model ?

[@ForFunFlyer]

Yes, it's in the last part of the video 😉 165k in Euros 😎

[@rrocketman]

Awesome to see this, I am trying to master it on Flight Simulator. Beautiful aircraft.

[@ForFunFlyer]

I'm just in awe with how this plane handles. It's fast but can be slow (when needed) and flies great! 👌🏻

[@KevinWolters]

awesome Episode Jolmer! We should buy a VL3 together haha. I'm sold! Keep up the good work buddy!

[@ForFunFlyer]

Even when splitting the bill in half, I still need to win the lotery. Or do something illegal 🙈🤣

[@thegoalie5233]

I was flying this in microsoft flight sim and it felt unbelievable, like the sim programmers must have exaggerated the handling characteristics of this aircraft so had to jump on youtube to check it out and it's real. Holy fuck.

[@ForFunFlyer]

It is a very, very impressive aircraft! 😀👌🏻

[@ryanyoder7573]

I need to download it. Thanks for the idea.

[@terryjordan7276]

I'm confused. How is he able to come in so steep but not increase speed? Is it the landing gear?

[@ForFunFlyer]

No, it's the split flap system, which also acts as a speed break. In that flap config, you just won't overspeed. It's an incredible aircraft with an insane speed range 👌🏻

[@SuperV8driver]

So whats the 200kmh consumption?

[@ForFunFlyer]

15 to 18 liter per hour

[@SuperV8driver]

@@ForFunFlyer ok, but on the homepage it says up to 2000km witz 110liters.... thus shouldnt it be closer to 10l/h?

[@ForFunFlyer]

@@SuperV8driver Oh, could be too. It's a real slick airplane, so it won't be that much. This is a 100hp Rotax, which I use in my own TL96 at 18 ltr per hour. But feel free to ask JMB themselves... 😉

[@ForFunFlyer]

Thanks! 👍🏻 Yes, the price was in Euros, correct. Well, there are a lot cheaper microlights, right? Nice ones begin at around 25k, that's something different than 165k? 😉
