Brad Koehn @brad.koehn.com · 31/08/2026The new heat pump gets installed tomorrow, replacing our 21-year-old A/C.

Brad Koehn @brad.koehn.com · 17/08/2026I don't understand the point of this. Why would anyone pay for an STC to use a different manufacturer's engine when they already have a type certificate for the one under the cowling? I understand the Delta Hawk (diesel) STC, but switching from one AvGas engine to another makes no sense. 110
Brad Koehn @brad.koehn.com · 17/08/2026The 50/80 rule is a good one for fixed-wing pilots: at half the runway you should be at 80% of rotation speed (eg about 60 knots for a typical piston single). If not, abort the takeoff while you still have room to stop. 111
