Damn that is hot!
Keith, do you still have the turbo cardinal for sale?
No, a retired helicopter pilot happily flew it home to Oklahoma at 16,000 feet with a great tailwind. I'll have more listings over time! cardinalinspections.com/forsale.php
Hello Keith, what airport is that? Rick Perry next door
South of Missoula, MT. Search for 203 Hart Bench Rd, Darby, MT. I don't think it is an airport any longer, I seem to recall seeing a more recent image than the Google Maps view showing firewood on the runway.
Dang! Exercising that landing gear hard!?!
Not really... the pilot in this case (it was not me) did a very nice job, you would not have felt much inside the airplane. Even more impressive given the length of the runway and criticality of hitting the spot. You might be used to some other CZcams videos where the landings they show all seem to be perfect... ;-)
