Glenn, Are there any parts available anywhere in the world??? Sure would be nice to find A good nose section!! Good Luck!!! Julian

I'm using this video for Microsoft flight simulator currently, although there are a few adjustments I have to make in-game, this tutorial is very helpful!

I just format the file as soon as I open it. Spaces are lame.

Nice stabilized approach in n a great airplane👍

Thank you Sir! I almost think your excellant tour would be similar to what an Ensign in the navy in 36 or 37 would have endured. Im amazed how ressed the instrument panel is on the Lockheed. How on earth can you read those gauges so far away and deep? Its like a spacecraft up in there! I feel for you! How do you not get leg cramps? What relief is there both urinary and leg easement wise? Do you do yoga to stretch out or swim, how do you relieve fatigue? I feel like Ive had a beginers course in 1936 Locheed and Beech.18 flight course! How do you do it? I mean relax and read gauges and see into that cave? Sorry so blunt, its my scandinavian ancestry. I really respect what you must go through! You must really love flying! Your like Neil Armstrong up in that Lem. Between the two the cockpit of the 18 gets my vote for legible gauges. I would think the Electra like being holed up in a tunnel almost blind. You have given me a practical education in antique aircraft! These were the airplanes of my fathers era, not that he ever flew these awkward aircraft. The Texan was as far as I know the most complicated arcraft he flew. Im still amazed at how Amelia Earhart flew such an untowered aircraft as the L-10E. What with the center of gravity behind the front landing gear, reportedly. I still am very much interested in the Lockheed L-10 E, but the 10-A gives me a clue as to how hard it is to fly either of the three. Thank you for educating me on these fastenating aircraft. Yours very truly c.e.7 1 24, U.S.A.😅

Thats the super charger is it not?on the Loc. Im just an aircraft admire. I remember the prat and whitney photos of dads old navy books. If im wrong I appologize.😅

And now we know exactly why they crashed. The guy on the left caused it all.!!! The guy on the left is nothing more than a Trevor Jacobs wannabe .

Thanks for a great contrast!!!😊

This is awesome. Thanks so much for doing this.

all the best my friend.

WOW! Not a torque wrench in sight while they are bolting that strut back together. Did I miss the part about having to bleed the hydraulic brake on that strut after reassembling everything to the airframe?

Is this in anyway connected to the recent accident which harmed Dan Gryder of the Probable Cause CZcams channel which suffered a landing gear/brake failure on a similar Lockheed airplane?

Do you guys have an erection manual for this airplane before you start dismantling the main mounts.....

Watching the video of the landing, it’s clear the tail wheel was not locked. As soon as you touchdown, the back end of the plane started to come around. Why the oversight?

Thanks for sharing the fine video. You do realize the proper way to install a threaded faster like a bolt or screw is to tighten the nut and not turn the bolt or screw head as a standard practice. Basically you hold / secure the head of the faster and then turn the nut. Good luck in your recovery and rebuilding the nose of your finer effect.

Tabs all the way! It's just simpler and keeps everything aligned. Software engineer since 1966. Started with Algol 60, brief time with Fortran. I started C programming with Whitesmiths, which vertically aligned and indented opening + closing braces. Much easier to understand program structure. Later moved the braces out to controlling statement indent per newer standards, but still vertically aligned.

Get well soon.

Nothing like videotaping the probable cause of the accident….. PS: the word “HOPEFULLY” shouldn’t be a common word for an A&P / AI!!!

Nothing like videotaping the probable cause of the accident…..

Wish you all a speedy recovery. Question are the Mechanics working on the gear FAA licensed and type rated??

Hey Glenn. I know right now you'll probably be in recovery, so you won't see this comment. I knew through Dan's channel that you're all OK, apart from some bruises 😊. Hope you all get well so we can continue "flying " with you guys. Good winds and happy landings from Portugal 🇵🇹

Glenn, wishing you a very speedy recovery..........Paul in Orlando

Glenn, I am praying for you buddy! Stay strong and keep fighting. 🙏

Not a aircraft manual in sight or did i miss it on a table near by cheers

Love the video . That's got to be the best looking plane in the air. Takes my breath away every time I see it.

I think both aircraft were built when people were smaller

Shoulda left the aviation business 😉

A appreciate everyone’s comments. As of June 22, 2024, we are all doing ok. Lots of things to still fix but we are all still alive and able to fly. Will post video of exactly what happened when I get to feeling better.

Wishing everyone a very speedy recovery!

What's up with the new Cub? Engine swap?

Maybe that tailwheel was trying to tell you something LOL.

Don't forget your sons YT is a "arm of China now". I am so proud of him.

So sorry to learn all that has happened but thrilled to learn you are all going to recover fully( I hope this is correct) hang in there Glenn and get well soon you are a great American we can’t afford to lose you. From Indiana

I have questions about your procedure of locking the tailwheel.

Glad everyone is sending condolences instead of highlighting any mistakes that could have been made about the procedures to secure the wheel.

Sorry but you are not using the shrader valve correctly. Take dust cap off, attach hose fitting and that will depress the valve stem. Set required pressure on your bottle secondary gage, the use 3/4" wrench and open the shrader valve to allow the nitrogen in. Check the gage for correct pressure in. Then close shrader valve with wrench and remove the hose. You shouldn't have to remove the valve stem ever. Hope that helps.

So sorry to hear about the accident. Wishing you a speedy recovery. God bless!

These chevrons are just like the O-rings / packing we use in the heads of hydraulic (oil) elevator jacks.

Praying for you Glenn!!!!!

This is completely false, shame on you

Seemed a little sketchy. Guess the NTSB report will clear things up. Short cuts are (generally) ill advised when it comes to aircraft maintenance… especially antiques.

Glenn, I am saddened to hear about your accident. I am praying for your rapid recovery. I hope you release a preliminary video to help extinguish all the rumors and speculation. Godspeed friend.

Prayers for you and fellow passengers.

Glen and others involved, I am praying for your full recoveries !

Glenn, so sorry about what happened with the Electra at Butts County - but thoughts and deepest prayers are with you all for a speedy and complete recovery. Best from Texas.

I got a little nervous when you were jacking the plane up a little with someone under it. I always stayed clear while jacking. Great video. I hope the plane can be repaired after the incident on Jun 17th.

I know I've told you this before but i absolutely love the maintenance videos. I'm glad to see you're doing well and have truly missed your videos. Thanks for taking the time to share it with us all.

Great video Glen, glad to see you back 🙂

There is a very easy way to get the seals past the threads, The landing gear on the T-6 is almost the same and I can reseal a gear leg in 30 minutes.

Very glad you are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for putting in the time to make these videos!!!
