Love your videos Wayne! As a future IFR rating as one of my goals, I really enjoyed this. Thanks for putting all the effort into a quality video!

Re: Anyone used Safari Express aircraft maintenance?

I use FlashPass on my iPhone for my monthly flights over our northern border. It makes it pretty painless. Currently you have the further obstacle of needing a PCR Covid test and you need to file your arrival with ArriveCAN as well. Sounds like those terrible PCR tests will be coming to an end very...

Re: Anyone used Safari Express aircraft maintenance?

Yes I know of Safari and they have been extremely helpful over the years with advice for me and my C1. Genuinly great guys. I haven't used them for service, however, but I know they maintain the DA20-A1's, C1's, DA40, and DA42 for the flight school attached to their shop so they definitely have the ...

Re: DA20-C1 Battery replacement - B&C BC100-1 Out of Production

To follow up, Neil replied first thing in the morning after I emailed - incredible response time as always from him in my experience. Here is his reply: Hi Arthur, We've recently approved an Odyssey battery as a replacement for the B&C battery. Battery P/N ODS-AGM28LMJ is the same size and will ...

DA20-C1 Battery replacement - B&C BC100-1 Out of Production

Has anyone done a battery replacement recently?

I had the B&C Installed about 3 years ago and am in need of a new battery but just discovered B100-1 No Longer Available on their website.

Any suggestions from others with recent experience for suitable replacement?

Re: DA20 pre-buy

I also own a DA20 and have done many long trips with it (Canada to Nevada, Canada to Arizona) and it has been very adequate for just myself travelling with a full backpack and a carryone suitcase - and still very much a head turner wherever I land (and there are people!). However if you have two peo...

Re: Possible NW Diamond fly-in Fall-ish. 2021

Great idea! I'm up in BC and would love an excuse to hit up Oregon - hopefully border restrictions loosen by then.

These regional meetup ideas are great!

Re: Looking for inspection tips for high time DA20

My C1 with MT has very similar performance as this as well. I could only get to redline maybe in a dive. I "feel" around 2200rpm it the engines happy spot - much more and it seems too much so I try to go easy on it, unless I'm meeting a deadline! I thought something was wrong as well early...
