That is such a beautiful airplane. The shape, the color, the interior it is such a marvelously designed airplane. I really admire the designers over at diamond

Checklist , Checklist ,great Video !!!

Great to see the DA50 and meet you all in Nashville at KJWN!

Beautiful airplane, thanks for sharing!

Very cool to see this finally happening. Years ago they had this in the works but it never came to fruition, and then they were going to roll out a weakened version called the Mustang. Big push back from anyone / everyone involved in the Diamond world, or the Diamond wanna-be world :) Bet it's super nice to fly - big step up from the 40. Give the 62 a run for its money. Love the girl - so confident. You have to watch real close to see her getting used to pitch and power settings, and fighting the trim a bit. Like her comms ... something I feel pretty good at but I could sure get a lot better at !

A bit over bearing

Nice airplane but I laughed when you kept referring to 3000' as "short." Is landing performance really that bad compared to a DA40?

It made me smile too. I fly from a 2,700' runway and lots of PC12s and King Airs use it. Plus every kind of piston singles and twins you can think of

Diamond advertises the DA50RG as being able to land, in full, on 2224’. Obv, that’s subject to elevation and a lot of other factors.

nice landing

Wow, this is a really awesome video featuring a special airplane. ❤ Can't wait to become an owner very soon. 🎉 Sharon, you are an amazing pilot. Special thanks to Patrick for all the hard work that went into the video. The over voice and cinematography was amazing. 💯 Also, Jared. It's always a pleasure to witness his diamond skills. Once again, thanks lifestyle aviation for making the video. Feel free to make more whenever you can 😉.

nice plane but very cute referring a 3000' runway as short haha

Bring the DA50RG to Vegas!!

nice :))

I really want to fly this plane!!

lol, at 25 seconds, i was about to say "hey, that looks like RDU" then Sharon called "Raleigh Clearance"

The first witnessed flight actually took place near Hammondsport NY on July 4, 1908. Glenn Curtiss was awarded pilot license number 1 for the flight. The Wright brothers weren’t witnessed flying until September 1908, which is why they were awarded pilot licenses four and five.

holy shit, I want a DA50, but I will never be able to afford one x.x

This dude is exactly what you want in an instructor.

Really cool. Waiting for the DA50 RG to come to Austin TX in August

I did not realize it was only 3000 feet.

Is 3000ft not a normal runway length?

My CFI's have beaten MORE RIGHT RUDDER into me and this is in 160-180 HP engines... I imagine with a 300 Horsepower Turbocharged engine you need at least 40% more right rudder, than you would in a Cessna 172 or a PA-28-181

Who was actually flying the aeroplane just before landing..? Appears both pilots were adding inputs simultaneously without a positive hand over of control. Very little synergy between them.

On what planet is 3000’ “short”?

Why does this plane have so little fuel capacity relative to the 62? I can’t help think that the lack of speed/range will cost this plane a lot of sales.

Yes, nice Q !

@SteveZimmermannAtHome

Жыл бұрын

The practical reason is that the 62 carries its 36 extra gallons in the engine nacelles. Why Diamond didn’t find a way to add more fuel capacity in the wings is a question only they can answer.

@sloth6765

Because they're not compromising on safety... Fuel is in crash protected bladders between dual spars. Less space than if they put tanks in the hull.

Extremely common after topping off fuel, this is the fuel vent to equalize pressure in the fuel tanks at all altitudes. Completely normal.

1.5 mil piston, really !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

49 gallons fuel capacity is simply unacceptable for an airplane like this. 750nm MAX range. And that's not even realistic once you factor in a real payload and decent cruise speed.

@davidholubetz177

Жыл бұрын

50 gallons is the standard (long range) tank size on the DA40, which has only a 180hp engine ... so I agree that is small for a 300hp monster like the DA50

The vocal fry is like nails on a chalkboard

3000' runway? What's the big deal? Get off it...

Stop talking over the instructor. It’s obnoxious. Just listen. She’d be exhausting to fly with
