Re: New MSB for NLG

Hello, can you name the new MSB. The MSB I have found is from Jan. 2023. Thanks in advance Oliver Hi, Did you received the new MSB for the NLG? From what I understand, it has to be inspected within 25 hours of flight of before the 07/23/2023! And in any case the NLG has to be changed within 2500hr o...

Re: GoPro/Camera & Mounts for DA-62

Hello,
attached pictures of the camera mounts. The one on the wing should also work for the DA62.

Re: GoPro/Camera & Mounts for DA-62

Hello,
attached is a video I made with my camera mount on the vertical stabilizer and an old GoPro4 Silver. The camera mount works even at >160kts :D
Even if it is only a DA40.
Greetings Oliver

Re: DA40 NG in Germany 2021: Satellite Weather, Flarm, 3rd Party Software

Call me crazy but while I just did my PPL license last week, I had already ordered a brand new DA40 NG, which is scheduled to be delivered in September. I am German and live in Munich/Bavaria. Now I should have tons of questions, right? Well, I am probably too excited to phrase them. Here is a smal...

Re: What's the DA40 NG's ceiling?

Interestingly, looking at the type certificate, notice what it NOT there: The 14,000 ft. nonsense. In the US, pilots are not required to have any knowledge of the contents of the Type Certificate, only the AFM and assorted placards and subsequent Flight Manual Supplements. The inclusion of "de...

Re: What's the DA40 NG's ceiling?

Hello, yes that is already confusing. However, the Maximum Operational Altitude is legally a limitation. This is stated in the Type Certificate. The POH also states a maximum altitude (also demonstrated) of 16,400ft. However, the 16,400ft is a limit because it is under Chapter 2 Limitations. There a...

Re: What's the DA40 NG's ceiling?

The DA40NG's maximum operating altitude is 16,400 feet -- the same as the Lycoming DA40. This is the maximum altitude that Diamond test pilots demonstrated during certification testing. If you fly above this, you'll be your own "test pilot." :) It's really no different from a plane's publ...

Re: Number & Placement of GoPros

Hello, I have built myself mounts especially for the DA40 for mounting action cameras. In Europe it is allowed to mount cameras by so called standard procedures (EASA CS-STAN / CS-403a).The installation must be signed off by an AP (I think this is what this person is called at the FAA). You also hav...
