Cessna's A-37B Dragonfly. Flew 5 hours this week in Phase 1 with no major issues. Gotta re-align main gear, put in new taxi light, and fixed the g-meter (was in locked position agh! New VSI, but we still peg it at 6 ooo fpm. Completed aerobatics for the testing, including Cuban 8s, loops, rolls, split S, etc. Full Monty. Even shot two ILS approaches.

Cessna's A-37B Dragonfly. Over the holidays had my new electrical gurus going through the radios. Quick photo of them in action. Finally, experts at work!

Cessna's A-37B Dragonfly. HIGH power taxi test. January 4th, 2011 by largay. Well, for the first time I let my A37 go all out. 98-100% power on a taxi test at KTMB. Short-term full throttle due to the fact the plane accelerates so quickly to flying speed. Had my son along to monitor gauges and speed. I think I could see his smile through the mask 10 minutes after we came back to the hangar and shut down. He was grinning from ear to ear. Acceleration was VERY quick! Posted in N87921 Restoration.

Cessna's A-37B Dragonfly. If it’s not one thing, it’s another! Do you think anyone could find more ways to NOT fly an airplane? That is in the book is NOT in the same area as the cable installation–it’s further into the book. Too late. I’ve had some business and personal traveling lately and it took time away from the bird. With cable in, I got the interior back together (a big job), the seats in, and closed up. Only issue is that dang-nabbed hydraulic leak in the nose gear. Feed You can leave a response.

Cessna's A-37B Dragonfly. Today, March 15, 2011, was inspection day for the A37. The paperwork took 3 times longer than the aircraft inspection, actually. Engine Start. FOD screen coming up. Then I wiggled the nose wheel with the power steering to show that I really knew my stuff! All paperwork was in order, except I needed to print out a new 8130-6 Application. Somehow I left my original at the office. So a print out and new signature finalized everything. Feed You can leave a response. National Warbird...

Cessna's A-37B Dragonfly. Lousy photos, but proof–so THERE! The photos from the first flight did not come out, but someone had a camera that caught the A37 in the air for the first time in decades. Final Approach with speed brake down. This entry was posted on Friday, January 11th, 2013 at 9:36 PM and is filed under N87921 Restoration.

Cessna's A-37B Dragonfly. Some photos of bird last time out. On the way out. Power steering makes taxiing easy. Thrust attenuators and belly brake are very effective. Nose profile. Plan is to use only two underwing fuel tanks. Nice to have extra fuel but there is a drag penalty to be paid, too.
