Flying Our Cherokee Six to the Beech City Fly-In
We're getting the summer season started off right with our first fly-in of the year, the Beech City Father's Day Fly-In. Join us as we fly our 1979 Piper Cherokee Six to this beautiful grass strip on a perfect morning for a fly-in. We saw tons of airplanes, ate a great breakfast, and spent time with friends and family celebrating Father's Day and the joys we can experience through aviation. If you enjoy watching us fly together in our Cherokee Six, be sure to subscribe and join us on future adventures. We hope to interact with you all in some way this year, and hope to see many of you at Airventure in a few weeks! As always, it helps us so much if you comment and like the video! Remember: don't forget to get YOUR aviation fix!

Rescuing OUR Airplane After 3 Years!

In this video, we're introducing the newest member of the AviationFix fleet. We fly down to rescue OUR airplane that has been sitting for 3 years! We hate to see airplanes sitting, and we love it when they get rescued and fixed.

New Speed Record!! Flying our Cherokee Six to Hilton Head - Part 1

We fly our Cherokee Six-300 airplane to Hilton Head Island to escape winter for a week of sunshine and fun. On the second leg of the flight, we encounter 40-50 mph winds and set a new personal ground speed record of over 200kts. The speed on this trip was incredible, and we absolutely loved traveling in our Cherokee Six. To date, this is our fastest Cherokee Six flight. Make sure to stick aroun...

In this video, we take the AviationFix Cherokee Six to Carroll County (KTSO) to get some $100 pie... and burger and salad and reuben. Because it got late, we decided to eat dinner and get the pie to eat later. The ride home was really smooth, and Kenneth was able to get some right seat experience!

The AviationFix Cherokee Six needs some maintenance! On this flight, we take N2905B, our Cherokee six, up to our maintenance shop to work out the last (hopefully) of our electrical issues before Caleb takes his instrument cross country. Since this video, Caleb passed his instrument checkride. Stay tuned for a debrief and checkride prep video going over study methods, checkride questions, and ot...
A Plane Without A Chance: The Story of The Mooney 301
zhlédnutí 6KPřed 3 lety
Throughout the 1970s and 80s, aircraft designers around the country began developing a unique aircraft type, pressurized piston-singles. Unlike conventional unpressurized airplanes, these aircraft were able to fly above much of the weather under cabin-class comfort with no oxygen masks. The configuration, although complex and challenging to develop, would allow owner-operators to travel much mo...
GRASS Landing in a Cherokee Six!
zhlédnutí 1,8KPřed 3 lety
We had an aborted landing at a grass runway in the hills! Sometimes you just have to abort a landing and go around. The decision to abort a landing, or even abort a takeoff, is one that pilots will have to make many times throughout their flying career. A go-around is nothing to be ashamed of! In this video, some of the AviationFix crew fly the Cherokee Six to a grass runway on a farm to see so...
Flying our Cherokee Six to my school cross country race

In this video, we fly the AviationFix Piper Cherokee Six to Josh’s school cross country 5k race! Due to COVID-19, riding the bus to meets was not an option for us, so it was really fun to be able to fly to this type of event. The flight and drive both took around 20-25 minutes each, and we arrived at the cross country meet saving around an hour of driving (compared to the bus). Josh got 3rd ove...

Piper Cherokee 6/300 - Amazing Speed Mods
How easy is it to land this bird. Nice bird.
6:04 Piper Aerostar One of the fastest planes
12:11 Cessna 421C golden eagle 2:44 Cessna 421B
35:03 Cessna 421B
Cross country >-CC->> That’s what’s up!
Nice video!!
Great summary. Design engr on the project. It lives on as Socata TBM 700. They bought the design data.
I love the v35b as it glides through air so gracefully ❤
203 kts on the G/S in a 1966 Piper Cherokee 6 260 w/o speed mods. Love that tailwind!!!
This is so freakin boring.
Great Video!!!
Still happy with the Cherokee six?
187 knots in a B407 at 9500 feet coming back from Santa Fe.
I’ve got 100’s of hours in a 65 260/6. Love the beast. I couldn’t help but notice at around the 3 minute mark viewing over the left wing the flap looked like it was out of rig, angled down…….maybe it was just me, but felt it was alright to mention it. Enjoy your baby. Thanks for the nice video.
Mooney built a piston pressurized before the Cessna p-210
Have you forgotten the Mooney M-22 Mustang ?
Would the topmost sold single engine piston - the Cirrus SR22 - not be worth mentioning? Nice video but strange selection.
I am pilot only for 3 weeks,while video i am same feel you.I will pride same as you if my kids do same.Its not only video,you coresponds feelings.
Got a technical question: how do you check the main strut height with those fairings on? I just took delivery of one. The POH says 4.25 inches, but I can't even see the strut. Great video btw. Thanks!
Cost of these mods?
These were installed by a previous owner, so not entirely sure what it would all cost installed today. Back in 1999 the plane had about $100k worth of upgrades - most of which were these speed mods in addition to some avionics.
Shelter in place? What fools we were.
670kts groundspeed was my highest.
what were you flying?
@@AviationFix I was flying a Falcon 7X
For 100% pure cool my 1948 Navion A can't be beat!
Well done! loved it all..
Just viewing this video again, my Brother and I are going to Beach City on Father's Day this year, by car, yuck! Maybe we will see you there? I enjoy watching your videos they are always so well done. Hope to see some of your new videos real soon. 🙂
We've hit some bumps this year in our video production, but we've got a few in the works now. We're going to try and be at Beach City again this year!
Cool video!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed!
Maybe I missed it but what were the speed mods? Just the cowling?
See our other, more in-depth walk around video for the complete list. czcams.com/video/zI7EtM7PINw/video.html
How much airspeed did each mod add?
Unfortunately we don’t really know the answer to this because they were all installed by the previous owner.
We sure miss your family videos. Soon to be a PA32-300 family as well.
Thanks for the kind word and congratulations! We have a bunch of content backlogged that we are hoping to get edited this summer. Unfortunately time has been taken up with other things over the past year.
I love that plane
Thank you!
Just found your channel, love your videos, thank you sir!
Thank you!
Would you please tell me if that cherokee is turbo? If yes would it be able to fly at high altitude like over the Rockies or takeoff easily from high altitude airports like the one at Denver Colorado which is nearly 6000' altitude and with airplane at nearly max load??? Thank you for any info...
I don’t believe any of the Cherokee 6s are turbocharged. You’d have to go with a Saratoga T. In that case, yes. I believe the service ceiling on the T is something like 20,000ft+
Piper beat them to the punch. Malibu was an is a better airplane
Speaking of Woodrum Field, does anyone remember Wes Hillman and his flying service?
G36 Bonanza should be on your list.
Question Why do some planes have what looks like a steering wheel and some planes have a joystick
The new Pipistral Panthera looks very nice
So what's your opinion on The VL3 ?
I appreciate you giving us a ‘tour’ of these mods! What is the opening just below the pilot side, cylinder head cooling inlet- carb/induction?
The LoPresti Howl Cowl adds the cowl flap that the original 6/300 did not have.
I almost didn’t click this link in my feed. I assumed it would be one of those computer-narrated, fluff videos that teach the viewer nothing. So glad the thumbnail Diamond aircraft image caught my curiosity. This was quality content.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video!
You say it was "scrapped." Yet why not say in fact it was not fundamentally scrapped as it became the TBM 700 to 960. And I think it lived up to everything that was hoped. I don't know of a faster turboprop single engine and perhaps not even dual engine?
Great video! I flew this aircraft years ago, fun to see this footage!

Ha! 6:22 white Cherokee with green N7702N We made it in your video....you could of made our landing look a little softer... maybe edit in some slo-mo, stretch it out for 10 seconds😄 Josh, this is how not to soft feild land🤣 Tell your Dad to just leave the keys in The Six, I'll pick it up later. Here's our video: czcams.com/video/if-murdxoo8/video.html
Great Video -- and lovely plane. You guys have the perfect balance = Dad showing son and son SO KEEN and ENTHUSIASTIC about flying . A very lucky young man ! ! !
How many times has Mooney suffered bankruptcy? The creative partnerships they forged with LoPresti, Mitsubishi, and Porsche all wound up to be short-lived adventures that ultimately drowned in red ink in spite of the superior aircraft they produced.
New sub! Liked 👏👏😘
Thanks!!!
Thank you 🙏
Cherokee 6 is fast. That's a good one.. big fat landing gear hanging out.
