Re: Parts Delays and Diamond Supplier Issues?
What is leaking? Is it the oil into the turbocharger? Is it the exhaust/air pressure on one side or the other?

Re: BestTugs B5 vs B8 for DA62
I consider max weight to be a full fuel load, but no people or luggage, about 4,700lbs. I usually fuel before putting the plane away and full tanks is common. I think it has plenty of power. I typically maneuver on the "Low" setting because "High" is pretty sporty and the DA62 48...

Re: DA62 on order or recently delivered?
Do you have a checklist that you used or suggest? No and I regret not having one for the delivery of my DA62. I was essentially rushed out of the factory to make the appointment with customs at KPHN. Literally 15min before departure they came out and told me there were problems with the paint, but ...

Re: DA62 on order or recently delivered?
Good luck. Give it a thorough shakedown. I suggest making a delivery checklist and verifying every system in the plane before you accept delivery. Their test pilot flight does not exercise every system.

Re: DA62 on order or recently delivered?
Given the fact that DA42s outsold DA62s for several years prior, I'm surprised at how many used DA62s seem to be on the market compared to used DA42s. Used DA42-VI models are almost unobtanium. Given the price spread, I think more or less "stripped" DA42's were going to flight academy's a...

Do you know if that was Diamond as a whole, or just the Austria factory?Mike Jones wrote: ↑Wed Mar 13, 2024 9:15 pmI did ask which model has the biggest order book especting it to be DA42 but in fact it is DA62 by a significant margin.

For starters, turn off the instrument lighting which is on in this photo and I think interacts with the panel brightness.

Re: Lightspeed Delta Zulu
I decided to check CO history. It peaked somewhere at 8 PPM. But it never shows that high when I check it in flight. I'm guessing it happened sometime when idling on the ground where the exhaust isn't ripped away with the slipstream. With my keyfob CO sensor I would see it peak when I opened the ca...
