Congrats, I’m going to Piper next week to pick up my clients airplane. We will be doing the course and flying a bit. Your video is very useful. Enjoy your new toy. Fly safe, never rush. I have 39 years experience and 15,000 hours and continue to learn!

Get the Aircraft Widgets for the pilot and copilot windows! They blow Jet shades away! Great Looking Paint!!

Haven't tried those, thanks for the input! We love the paint too!!!

Great to see your back and congratulations to the new addition to the family. Question for you, we just did a tour of the Piper factory and working with a salesman in San Antonio area. We wanted to buy a m350 but I did not fit while trying to get into the pilot seat. I’m 6’4” 290 lbs and 58 years old. How do you squeeze yourself into the pilot seat. My biggest fear is that I would break something. Do you have a technique to get in. Heck I lost 30lbs just for this plane. Also I have been losing more weight trying to get down to 260lbs to make things a little easier. Comments my friend on this matter what greatly be expected.

The biggest complaint for the M-Class (M350/500/600/700) is the squeeze into the cockpit, particularly climbing over the wing spar. Backing in, sitting, and then swiveling your feet in seems to be the approach that works best. Karen and I both go in head first with our seat side foot leading the way (pilot leads with left foot, first officer leads with right foot). No matter how you slice it, 6'4 and 260+ is going to be a tight squeeze. I'm 6'0 220 and it's ok, but not spacious. Try again - try the back in technique and good luck! AD

Yeah you should not be using camguard until at least after the first oil change and when break in is complete
