Aerotech A-28 "Finch"

6,313 GT3TobyRS  7.8 years ago
Auto Credit Based on GT3TobyRS's Aerotech™ Inspire Tundra

The Aerotech A-28 was a pioneer of monowing flight. It was developed in the early thirties from the previous A-27, using similar fuseage shape and wing design. It was a small, single engine, single seater recreational plane, that pioneered the usage of flaps. It was used for private ownership and cruising and sometimes for pilot training. It is not really an aerobatic plane, it had only a small four cylinder engine, producing just enough power and then a bit more. It is capable of rolls, but is too underpowered for loops. It is a very nice flyer, and is just perfect for touring Krakabloa at a leisurely pace.

FLYING INSTRUCTIONS: Set flaps at a little less than half, then full throttle and let it lift off by itself, or pull up gently. Stay above half throttle during flight, and for landing, set flaps just under half, and adjust throttle as needed. Happy flying, GT3TobyRS.

P.S. **I HAVE NO IDEA WHY THIS IS A SUCCESSOR OF THE INSPIRE. IT'S VERY WEIRD.**

    @jamesPLANESii the link in your bio under the scirocco doesn't work :(
    (also, just a small piece of advice, maybe put commas in-between the verses? I forgot to do that when I wrote it! (whoops!))

    And now for the VW Scirocco Diesel song, by James May:

    The diesel Scirocco
    Gets you down to Morocco
    On one fill uppa diesel
    That's 55 MPGiesel

    Common rail injection
    You know that's the new direction
    People keen on green issues
    Save money for the tissues

    That you put on your parcel shelf
    Conspicuous sign of your wealth
    Money saved diesel driving
    You know you're gonna find it kinda surprising!

    link to video if you don't know it
