Damn Schiada owners parking their toys all over the joint!
Are you seeing swimsteps thinking they are tunnels?400 outboard on a mod-v.....I like it!!!
LoL yes I got a little excited, thought they were tunnels. I still like it!!Are you seeing swimsteps thinking they are tunnels?
I thought that boat was a vee?
That is a pretty good photoshop of a Schiada in the water.
Yes, being that the strip is frozen solid and closed to boating.That is a pretty good photoshop of a Schiada in the water.
The 930 aint bad either...
And to think people here complain about the price of a prop.

My old boss at Advantage use to fly me to Blythe to do a little work on the race boat then he'd fly me back to the shop.
At any rate, the front shot of that plane is pretty bad ass Wheeler.
He traded in the beaterBadass TBM.
Baller..
Cameras were on the ignore this morning... Slept in. Was my rzr still in the driveway..He traded in the beater
I'm parked in your driveway this morning how did your cameras work?
Now about that baller part. I'll let you know how that works out for me after I get my first schiada

I wouldn't even know what to guess, what's a prop like that cost?
I’m confused. Who’s plane and who’s boat? Or just random shots?!

I think the guy in the Meridian needs to try a bigger prop. His is kinda whimpy.
That Meridian is not a Meridian but the newer M600. Much bigger wing, higher cruise speed, higher ceiling, more fuel capacity, more payload and a -42A PT6.
The SLS models will even completely navigate to the best landing option and land on their own if the pilot keels over with the passenger just pushing a button. The Garmin system will on its own aviate, navigate, communicate and then land perfectly on the centerline.
Also the only higher performance turbine that can be efficiently used by an individual on Basic Med as opposed to a FAA issued medical certificate.
The TBM is nice, but that M600 is a fraction of the price and a hell of an aircraft for the money.
Great pics for the winter. Nice equipment all around.

Is the G3000 available yet? Another great feature is automated emergency descent if pressurization fails and the pilot doesn't respond. That feature alone will save lives going forward.
You aint fucking up my thread. At least we have boats and airplanes here instead of shit like the itchy pussy thread.Not to fuck up Wheeler's thread but the G3000 is available on the M600SLS and the latest Vision Jet.
Both with auto descent and auto land.
John Denver...RIPYou aint fucking up my thread. At least we have boats and airplanes here instead of shit like the itchy pussy thread.
Besides, it's actually Andrews thread. I was sitting with Andrews grandfather this morning having a cup of coffee and when I looked out the window and saw the schiada sitting there so I snapped a photo.

If the transom tunnels are showing sitting still like that, it would have issues,,,,,lolLoL yes I got a little excited, thought they were tunnels. I still like it!!
Had the Schiada towed down to Bluewater for dinner at Willows.....
Each one of the carbon fiber blades is about 40k. I would guess some where in the 5-600k range. On a little more than 4 mil new cost with out options. Its not much. More so when you think about a motor overhaul at 3500 hours or every 4 years is 350k. Fuel burn is about 50 gallons an hour at 4-7 gallon. Depending on where you buy it.I wouldn't even know what to guess, what's a prop like that cost?

Nothing cheap about turbines.
Yep.Are you fucking serious? I had no idea.
You should see how much a manufactor like continental or lycoming wants for just a basic 4 or 6 clyinder.jesus h christ
Yup, I've seen that boat cruising the strip a bunch of times. Good looking ride [emoji106]Hey @rivergames, have you ever crossed paths with my buddy that owns this Schiada. He stays at River Lodge, name is Tony. I think his boat is about 20 years old.

If you can find them for 60k certifed ready to go, i recommend you sell everything and buy them out. You will make a killing. If not please tell me where you are finding them for that and i will. Overhaul does not always mean rebuild. Per the manufactor it is 3500 hours or 4 years.You can buy that prop, complete, new, for $60k. Fuel burn is 60-62 gph at FL270. Fuel with a membership card averages $3.50 / gallon. Engine overhaul is not predicated on calendar.

Did you buy a HC-E5N-3C/NC8834K? With 105068? Or did you buy the older model? I said each blade is about 40k. Looking at thier 2019 price sheet they are comin ? Out at 20.5k each add in deicing boot is $500. None of this is installed, just parts cost. Your a&p /ia is going to have to get paid as well.Not sure where you get your information. Check either Hartzell or MT. I bought a MT 5 blade for my TBM (new) 3 years ago from an authorized dealer for $57k. To say each carbon blade is $60 k is not factual.
