Why all Peterson models
share the same great handling characteristics. |
|
THE PROPER USE OF FLAPS -
For those who have been told by backcountry instructors to always
use full flaps, this will be helpful. |
|
TIPS FOR A NORMAL APPROACH -
What may be normal in other airplanes does not necessarily apply to
a canard equipped 182. Todd offers tips for a perfect landing every time. |
|
SETTING UP A SHORT FIELD APPROACH -
Taken from inside the cockpit with real-time narration by Todd, this
video shows how it is done in a Peterson
airplane. |
|
STOL TECHNIQUE -

these techniques will also work in turbulence and crosswinds. |

It's a little bit different than a carbureted engine. Here is Todd's recommended technique. |
|
HOT STARTS -
Hot starting a fuel injected engine can be tricky but this simple and easy technique works
like a charm. And if the engine has cooled a bit, here's what
to do. |

BEST IO550 INSTALLATION
- Todd addresses how his conversion overcomes known problems with other 520
& 550 installations. |
|
NEED MORE SPEED?
- The King Katmai is much more than a backcountry airplane. The XS configuration can cruise comfortably at much higher speeds.
|
|
CUSTOMIZING - The Katmai can be customized to suit any pilot's desires. Some of many options can be seen in these videos. |
|
LOP OPERATION - Properly configured, the IO550's fuel-injection system can comfortably run Lean Of Peak at cruise
with big fuel savings. |
