![]() ![]() Will outrun almost any fixed gear competitor of the same horsepower. Ingress and egress is a bit clumsy, but more than made up for with the sliding canopy, which provide plenty of A/C on taxi, great visibility, and can be opened about 8" in flight if desired. The AA-5X are simple aircraft, easy to maintain, and are well-supported in parts (Fletchair and others.) The airframe is incredibly strong. My AA-1A canopy leaked right on to my flap switch until I fixed it (similar design). Maintain the canopy and seals properly, it won't leak. I own an AA-5 with the high compression (160 hp) STC. You can open it further if you want though depending on your needs.Īnd yes, if it were raining, the gentleman above would get wet. With the canopy cracked that far, the plane was quite cool (Granted we were at 6k feet) ![]() In the air, you can open it something like 10 inches but a couple is more than enough. Sunday I flew from San Antonio to Dallas in 102 degree heat.īeing able to open the canopy is priceless here especially on the ground. I live in Texas and it is ****ing hot right now. I am not sure why but I have heard that multiple times now. Not true, the top is solid though some people have looked at photos and said "I thought those had a full glass bubble canopy" I have heard people suggest it is a greenhouse. The plane is fun to fly and nobody seems to mention the visibility but I flew in a Warrior a few weeks back and quickly realized the visibility I have in the Grumman. I am sure I can get it fixed but given the 1 time it was an issue, I am not all that concerned about it. My canopy does leak a bit as shown in that photo. This allows me to easily help people in and out, load full scale suit cases, and when I am climbing around cleaning, fixing stuff, I have more room to maneuver than I would in most cars. The canopy entrance / exit is pretty darn convenient. I don't care for high wings so Grumman was a good option and it was a really good decision. I like pipers but that 1 door thing made me uncomfortable. Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.In my price range, the performance was pretty much level for what I could buy.īut for me the decision was kinda psychological. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. ![]() Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. I've created an Automator workflow application ( requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. (WARNING: while your in the package do not move, rename or otherwise mess with any item in the package). Open the iPhoto LIbrary package and manually select the Originals folder when setting up the the initial backup with Sync or your application of choice. Or run it manually when you add new photos to the library. By automatically I mean at regular intervals. Synk Standard you can have it automatically backup the Originals folder in your iPhoto LIbrary Package to an external HD. ![]()
