OK, Some one asked about operating out of a short strip.........
so....... one of my 3 runways is 550 feet long with 75' on each side.
You will see the 582 can certainly pull it's weight and do quite well clearing those trees with 75' to 100 feet clearance. oh one more things is the spark plugs have over 140 hours on them and the engine has over 350 hours on it and never been apart .............
I would like to see some others doing the same thing with any engine combo, take a video and put it on You tube........ See, I talk about it but I put my video where my mouth is <snicker>
btw winds were about 2o degrees off my left on take off at about 5 knots.

I also think i might have to build a longer landing gear soon to cut that take off distance in half. (very big Grin )
