Re: New Project for my Broussard!!

So, the idea is to take off with a discharged battery, and let the big plane's prop blast windmill the Cri Cri's motors and once full charge is reached, take off (again)?! Not really I'm sure, but it could sort of work that way. :shock: What a good idea in a weird way, launching that little bugger off of the big plane, pointless but cool as hell none the less. Thinking outside the box, big time, I couldn't read the text but got the general idea.

hey daedaluscan
Did your 170 used to be US registered, N3476D? If so, I know a couple of the previous owners here in western Washington.

The Cri Cri was featured on a magazine cover a few years ago. AOPA? I believe it said it is the smallest twin that exists.

Wow, that's a long T/O run. Is that powered by a Rolls&Kanardly? Just kidding! I should be so lucky.
