First Flight of Pulsar III Serial # 519
N119HL Jabiru 3300 Sensenich Prop
Northern Maine Regional Airport, Presque Isle, Maine
15 degrees F and 15 mph winds
In two days I've flown my self-built Pulsar III over 2 hours and 9
landings without issue. I LOVE THIS PLANE!!!!
I've the Jabiru 3300 under the hood and it is a MONSTER with this light
airframe (670 empty). I can easily lift off with only 2000 rpm, and
landings are a breeze.
Thanks for all the hundreds of Pulsar builders worldwide who offered regular
email help to get this built! Around 1000 hours and 1 1/2 years got it done
with the quick build wing kit.
This is my second "FIRST FLIGHT" experience in a kit built (Vans RV-9A was
my first) and it is absolutely amazing to leave the earth in something you
built with your own hands. This Pulsar is a beautiful airplane and a ROCKET
with the Jabiru engine. I had her going 170 mph straight and level at 3000
ft MSL, without the wheel pants. :)
The Pulsar SP 100 would be my next kit if I was able to do another! HAPPY
Flying all!
