Nice! We own and fly a 77 AA-5B Tiger up here in Colorado and it is an excellent aircraft!

I appreciate the mention about pilot height, this is so often difficult to find out without actually sitting in the plane yourself. Looks like Bruno's camera drone work is improving.

[@FlyingNDriving]

Cabin width would have been good too, never know who shows up and might be cross shopping this against the Piper/Cessna equivalent

[@tfarris7113]

Height can be deceiving. The canopy is higher Where the pilot's head is, but looks lower when it's open. You have to duck to close it, but my 6'5" buddy can sit upright with a headset.

I left KDRO in summer with my son and luggage on a 100° day. 9500 DA. We got an anemic ZERO fpm at times! But that's what VCOAs are for😁 Also crossed the Sierras at 11000 last summer. AA5s are can-do aircraft!

Sooo stupid to do that..

[@tfarris7113]

@@outwiththem Is it? Which part? Should I not trust the W/B figures and performance chart?

[@chawkinz]

What about the TR-2?

[@falcon127]

Put the NEW (CERTIFIED) Delta Hawk (Jet Fuel) Compression Ignition engine in and now you will really have something. Of course, it's ONLY 60K - 100K $ for the engine and install.

I got a traveler and it’s hard to find parts

[@tfarris7113]

Which parts? I've yet to find something I can't get. Brakes, plastics, body parts, tires, etc. Fletchair or spruce have nearly everything. Lowe's has springs that work perfectly for rudder pedals 🤫
