  • It's been a long time coming, but as promised, here's the "Kermie Cam" on the Stinson L-1. Here in Part One of this two part series, I will give an overview of the problem we've sorted out with the engine, followed by a walk around the plane, then I'll take you in the cockpit to give you a tour of the instruments and such. Finally, we'll start her up. Come on along for the ride.

    I have been an A&P IA and pilot for well over 37 years now and by watching your IA take the tester from you and smell the 100LL I can honestly say I am not the only one who likes the smell of AVGAS

    Fantastic!....you should have heard my, "Ahhhhhh" when the video ended just as you were taxiing! You should be a teacher Kermie, your discussion of the wing slats was excellent. I honestly think that your video's are historically significant! No one but you has ever really filmed/videoed the in's and out's of these vintage aircraft! Your left to right checks of all the systems is invaluable. Some guy's are just meant to fly, and you are one of them!

    Love seeing warbirds with correct flat paint. I'm sure the glossy paint is easier to clean but the flat paint just looks right.

    Kermit. My son and I have been enjoying your videos for a couple years. My dad was a retired USAF Col and I flew on a few flights with him on the Bonanza he liked to rent. Before Vietnam, he flew the C-133 all across the Pacific. One storm, he recalled, a Typhoon, was so heavy that he and his co pilot would take turns flying the instruments ( trying to get to Okinawa) with their foreheads pressed against the panel so their eyes would vibrate in sequence with the instruments. Harrowing. The Cargomaster C 133 was the biggest plane in the world then.

    I laughed at the Kermie Tug Cam. You should absolutely do a Kermie Tug Cam, complete with tug background, walk around, start up, operation, and post-tug for April Fool's Day.

    Thank you for another well done informative Kermie Cam. I love your way to show us the bits and pieces of your planes. Even to know the quirks and shortcomings of engineering are very interesting. Not like a car where you just hop in and drive away, planes need a lot more caring and maintenance to work well. Thanks again for your effort to present a unique plane. BTW the only videos on par with your Kermie.Cams are your Mechanic‘s Corner restoration videos, especially the Bf-108 ones by Paul. I love those in depth insights. Keep them coming. A very big 👍 !

    Thanks Kermit for taking the time to video these flights, most of us would never have a chance to fly these classics. Can't wait for part 2.!!

    Your Videos are always informative and fascinating. People don't realize there is more to flying than jumping in and pulling back on the stick. Well done you!
