The Tetons are a nice scenic flight. Going from Driggs you could fly south, up the Snake River, north along the east side of the Tetons (I personally... -
Congratulations! Sounds like you’ll have a grand adventure flying the new airplane home. What a way to start your ownership.
IDK your... -

On a Lycoming. Gotta compare apples to apples. Removing the case mounted cooler is a pretty significant design change to the oil system IMO. It would... -
Sorry for the long delay. I was out of pocket, then attempted to stay off the internet, then tried to find the info source I used. Unfortunately I can’t... -

Zkelley, a composite prop would wreck my CG and make the airplane useless to me. I need every bit of that 72lb prop and if my engine was rated for a heavier... -
Schu, notice I said “Idaho Backcountry.” I wish we had AK like backcountry here but such places in the lower 48 are mostly wilderness areas so no...Leave a comment:

I agree, true off-airport is a totally different discussion and I would go as big as possible, so 35s. My friend puts on the 35s when he knows he is going...Leave a comment:

A friend of mine has every size of Bushwheel for his BH. He started with 35s, then 29s, then 31s than back to 29s. He felt like 29s were the best compromise...Leave a comment:
