NinjaNate Posted November 28, 2017 Posted November 28, 2017 Interesting video of Steve Henry doing a dead stick takeoff in his Highlander STOL aircraft. He is the agent for these aircraft in the US and I read that he has fitted a 140hp yamaha engine in his latest plane. The engine is out of a yamaha snowmobile... 2 2
