Robert Posted July 31, 2022 Report Posted July 31, 2022 Last week I went to the Tsjech Republic to pick up my brand new Phoenix from Pure Flight. I first flew 5 days with Petr Bezděk, Pure Flight's excellent instructor (and much more!), then passed my Tsjech MLA licence exam and then ferried the plane home to the Netherlands. It was a great experience and I am very happy with my new plane!. The guys at Pure Flight (Petr Marecek, Tomáš Plaček, people in production, etc.) were very helpful. reliable and friendly. Everything was taken care of.... I can once again highly recommend the new owners and team....Plus, my plane was the first they equipped with mylar and tabulator tape, apparently a great difference (as could also be seen on the computer simulations Pure Flight made) All in all a very positive experience!!

Alex Ress Posted August 11, 2022 Report Posted August 11, 2022 Congratulations Robert! Throw in a picture of the panel if you can. I'm curious if the set up is any different from a few years ago. How long was it from deposit to delivery? -Alex Quote
mrsito Posted August 14, 2022 Report Posted August 14, 2022 Welcome Can you describe where the turbulator tape has been placed? Or show a photo...? Quote
Foley Posted August 25, 2022 Report Posted August 25, 2022 Interested on how they taught you to land. I use a power off spoiler only landing both short and long tips. Flaps cause weird aileron issues for me so i land clean with spoilers as my "Throttle". Also do they soar with any degree of flaps? i have mixed feels. once again loss of flaperon control at lower speeds. Btw Congrats Quote
Robert Posted October 6, 2022 Author Report Posted October 6, 2022 Sorry for my late replays! @alexress99: From deposit to delivery was some 5 months. Some delay because of Covid and Oekraine war. Do you mean instrument panel? If so, I will make a picture. All instruments are Kanardia in the left pane plus a S80 e-vario. Middle panel Kanardia motor instrument plus radio and transponder and all push fuses, incl for the 2nd battery I use for the instruments when I am gliding. Flarm on top of the middle panel. Winter speed meter as back up in the right panel plus iPad holder. Ipad 11.9 inch with SkyDemon and SeeYou Navigator. @mrsito: please see the post by Jim Lee @Foley: I typically land my Phoenix in the long wing version with -10 flaperons, engine idle and full airbrakes. When it is gusty weather, I use -5 or 0 instead of -10 Quote
