Re: Looking for inspection tips for high time DA20

I can relate SO much to wanting to upgrade as well! But I keep realizing how fast, efficient, cost effective and a blast that our DA20's are to fly - I have a hard time thinking of parting with it!

Re: Looking for inspection tips for high time DA20

Re: Diamond Colorado Fly In - 2021

I voted for August - hopefully the US-Canadian border will be open by then to allow us to more freely travel into your part of the world!

Re: Chapter 42 begins

This is a move that I hope to achieve some day in the near future (how far is near anyway!?) - Currently at a DA20, looking to go to a DA40 and then 42!

Awesome thread and look forward to more posts from you, Chris - THANK YOU!

Re: [POLL] DAN logo design update

The only part of the new logo choices I don't understand is the airline captain hat!

Great video, as always Wayne!

Too bad your Diamond wasn't in the video rather than that (ewww... Cirrus!)

Thanks for sharing!

Re: Stall Warning System Required for Flight?

..interesting. I have never heard of a "suction device" other than my own mouth for testing the stall warning system!
