Using basic spin recovery, I have done both left and right spins in my rebel. It spins like the early stright back Cessna 150, only it rotates little faster.

AND Bob will take the "4th" on all the other things that have been done in a
Rebel, as that would be admitting we/he broke the aeronautical laws in
Canada!!

Gee, I didn't mean <I> did those kinds of things ! ;-) I was
just suggesting that a review of the Murphy Rebel videos from earlier
years would show the Rebel doing loops, rolls, and spins, - during
the process of "flight testing", of course !!! :^)

I'm just getting "punchy" here after 2 weeks+ of Rebel "withdrawals"! I need
to get back out into the shop before I go nuts, but saw the Dr that did the
work on Monday and he told me not 'till Xmas or so. Don't think I can make
it that long without "falling off the wagon" and heading back out to the
shop for my Rebel fix!

Hard to go from 70+ hours/week, to none, in the stroke of a knife!!


Take care,

I remembered this rather interesting post to the list from about 3 years ago,
so I dug it out and dusted it off. The author of this message has been left
out on purpose for legal reasons. ;-)

-----------------------------
Just came back from a GREAT flight ! Two hours in the fall
sunshine - about 20 degrees (C). Found a nice thermal downwind of a
gravel pit, throttled right back, hung 1 notch of flap, and climbed
at 600 fpm to 4,500 (not spectacular, compared to summer, but very
pleasant). Burned off the height doing linked wingovers, a couple of
loops, and spins left & right - WHEEE !
The Rebel REALLY spins - very slow for the first turn, THEN -
hang on !! Recovery is instantaneous ...
In smaller, stronger thermals, i've used 2 notches of flap &
really cranked her in tight in a steep turn to stay in the core. Once,
on the way to Florida, we hit a boomer in a valley, and gained 9,000 ft
in about 4 turns !!

Your right Phil, I was quick to forget that there may be others in less favourable situations that me! As you point out I will be back in the shop and flying my "toys" again, in due time . I will quit whining!!!

Too late though, I've already driven my wife around the bend with the daily statement of "I'm bored"! I had better get back out into the shop soon, to give her some peace and quiet, or she just may put me out of HER misery!!

Take care,

No you didn't come across that way at all. Your post, with me knowing your situation of having your "baby" up for sale, just made me realize I was whining (for something to do I guess). I'm the one that should apologize to everyone on the list for my ramblings!
