a Tiger! Grumman's little speed machine, designed by Jim Bede. She's a beauty! Definitely try to avoid the edges of the air! (For the edges of the air are filled with all manner of things woeful to aircraft. Things like land, water, trees. Buildings. Very large rocks. Avoid the edges of the air!)
Also, probably self evident, but just in case it wasn't: I am TOTALLY jealous of that airplane! You can cruise at at 170Kt in that, can't you? Or is it 180Kt? I hate you!
Thank you very much, I do love my Tiger and yes she is fast for a 180hp old plane but not 170kt fast. I cruize at about 120kt airspeed, and if I get some favorable wind, it really hums. I did hit 180mph according to flight following in the dark, trying to get down to pattern altitude, once. I hope to upgrade the cowling and add a few speed mods as time goes on, but I think I am set for a while as she does what I need very economically. And the canopy............I love the canopy.
