This was the highlight of my week, last week, watching all the awesome coverage flow into my newsfeed on FB, so cool!
I noticed you were doing a lot of test flights in Race 44, who flew for the record attempts?
Connor
That is so awesome! So is John Parker going to come get his record back?
Thanks for the videos! I can't get enough of that sound![]()
Just so everyone understands the accomplishment of the o-3000m TTC record for C-1-b of a time of 1:59.9 sec, that was only the second (2nd) time in aviation history that a piston/ propeller plane has done that TTC in under 2:00. At one point the climb rate was over 8,500 fpm. It was such a privilege to be there to see the setting of these records. The first piston/prop plane was Rare Bear (Lyle Shelton) in 1:31.
