I own and fly this FR-172 Riems Rocket for fun and business.
N42588 is a Riems/Cessna 172 w/a Cont. IO-360 210 hp w constant speed prop.
70.5 gal Fuel total with AUX tank
Bush Stol kit
Madress Drop tips
Full IFR/GPS/LORAN and auto pilot

The AC was made in Riems France under license From Cessna and the Military Designation is T-41 Mescalaro. This one spent several years in Alaska but only has 2340 hours totel time airframe and is on 2nd Engine.

Stall Speed is 39 KAS
Cruise 112 KIAS
Burns about 8.5 GPH

Very much like a 172-XP

I fly it a lot better then my AH Spit (good thing)

Private/Instrument/Seaplane/Glider ratings, about 550 hrs power and 200 glider. I now mostly fly a Piper Pawnee towing gliders. Never flown anything hotter than a Piper Arrow, which ain't too hot.

I have a half hour in a AT-6 Texan and about one hour in a Cessna 152. Plus untold hours in virtual combat.

Does that count for anything

Gotta post some Pics too

I've just been on a 2 week towing "vacation" in EDQE where a big flight school in germany is (north of Nuernberg) -> Hi Habicht

that's one of the Tow planes (i'm the small guy

)

That's what it looks like with me on your 6

-> got to fly a LO100 aerobatic glider there!

Here's the LO again just to see how small she is

And here the normal aerobatic ride .. the ASK21... not the swiftest .. but the guy who tought me on it does 8 stop rolls with it

Just hiccoughing through my PPL.
Fly for 6 months, then none for 6 :-( (money, busy work schedule).
Fly PA-38 Tomahawk. 40 hours at the moment - last flight was first instrument instruction flight. Outstanding - 45 mins continuous right up to landing just following instructor's commands. Just the best feeling. Can't wait to start cross-country.
