Your journey has been awesome and you have inspired many! Life changes and sometimes we venture down the next path. Thanks for being a part of getting so many others started on their aviation path! And, when you get a boat built be sure to give me a call so I can catch a ride. (greg) :)
Any time Greg... The beer is on you though =)
@@JasonEllisBuilds Deal!
Btw I started building after watching you channel for years. Not because but despite. I think you channel should be required watching for any prospect builder cause it’s the only channel I know what shows the struggle and not just a happy build videos. It gives a realistic view into what it can be like. I took some things away from it for my decisions how to build: everything quick build, no wet wing tanks, buy the engine right away, build close to home (mine is 5 min away), don’t do CZcams. I mean I’m happy people create those video but I’d rather be building. Thanks for all the lessons.
Thank you for helping inspire us to start our own build with your videos! I have really enjoyed getting to know you the past couple years and I wish you all the best in this new adventure with your new home 😊
Good luck to you Jason. I would encourage you to continue your YT channel. I enjoy your stories and commentary
Best of luck to you. I'm 6 months into my RV14a build. You were the first channel I started watching in 2020 as I was exploring my journey... Christine (Plane lady) was my 2nd, shout out to her and Tyler! Thanks for what you've done for everyone and best of luck on your next step.
Jason, your channel was huge as I prepped for a build of my own. Thank you for your knowledge and inspiration. Good luck on your next adventures!! You videos will be missed!
Thank you so much for all of your hard work and videos along the way. You were a huge inspiration and reason for my wife and I feeling confident in starting our build. I’m excited to see what you build next!
I'm really sorry to see you ending this adventure, but I'm so glad to see you happier and hopeful for your future plans. Really did enjoy your videos, but was incredibly saddened to see the difficulties you were experiencing. Looking forward to possibly seeing your new location and the neat stuff you are going to do. God bless you, brother. Onward and upward.
Thank you for all you have shared with us over the years! It was because of your videos that I began my journey on my 9A. I hope you continue to make appearances at air shows. Take care.
I really wish I could take this off your hand. Can't say I didn't see this coming. Good luck Jason! The build was not the only reason I subscribed to your channel, it was you. I hate those channels where it is just sped up footage from one angle. You put out some good stuff. Again...good luck!
Jason builds a boat. Hope you keep making content. As for the plane I think most viewers had a idea it would come to this end. Good luck with the sale!
I am sad to see this. I can't believe I have been watching you for 8 years. I went back and watched some of the first videos from the garage again. Best of luck in the future sir.
I've used your vids every step of the way on my build, and even got to meet you at Osh. Thanks for what you've done, and best wishes to you.
I know this wasn't an easy decision to make, and I respect the hell out of it. It's been super fun watching you over the years, and I appreciate all the insights are highs and lows. Many of your attitudes and trials and tribulations were all super relatable. All the best with the move and your future endeavours, Jason.
Sorry to see you sell. Your videos were instrumental in my successful build of my RV-10. I'm really amazed you went as far as you did. But like you said in the video, you really have to have a continued passion not just in building the airplane, but flying in general. Once that passion is lost, it's tough justifying continuing something you really have no interest in completing it. Move on with your life and wishing you great success.
Isaac J. Schantz
RV-10, N51279, flying since 2022
All the best to you and your wife mate, loved the videos over the years👍👍
Good for you! Rip the bandaid off and move forward with purpose. Thank you for bringing us along on your journey, it been a blast. Best of luck and God bless!
Thank you for everything you have shared. Some great content over the years and was a pleasure to watch. I am sad to see your project come to an end because your channel was an inspiration to me. I had looked forward to building some day. I also really understand and appreciate your candor and your situation. Good luck with your next adventure!
Your build and your building skills are awesome. Someone is going to get a really special aircraft...and with a great backstory. Watched from the beginning and was sad we didn't see you finish it, but so glad you are able to move on with life with such a positive attitude.
All the best of luck and thanks for the journey and for sharing your life story with us over the years.
Jason, I'd like to say thanks for sharing some great content. Your effort into editing was definitely appreciated. What made this channel great is this was more then just about the build process, I can see you put your heart and soul into everything you commit to, and you truly enjoyed this process.
Closing a chapter in your life is a hard thing to do. Good for you for not forcing yourself to carry on into something that's finished. Best of luck in the new book of your life.
Watching you helped me have the confidence to get started on my RV12. I'm looking forward to your next adventure!
Hey Jason! I am sad/glad for you. I had wondered how you were doing. We were just in North Carolina and I literally waved to you and your hangar. Haha. I have been living through many of you on CZcams since I had my stroke and wanted to fly again as a PIC in retirement. Life interrupts doesn’t it? I have really appreciated your videos and will continue to follow you with your hinted content. Thank you for being gracious to show me your build in 2019/2020. As far as my aviation goals now I am more thinking low and slow and some tail dragger (Cub/KitFox) or something in that class so I can fly it on basic Med. So as much as I would love to own a RV10, it isn’t in the cards for me. I do wish you the best for your sale and keep up your builds channel for those of us that have gotten to know your channel presence. You are outgoing enough on video and on screen for me. I could hang with you. God Bless from North Texas! All the best!
Been watching your build from the beginning. Sorry to see you go, it has been a great channel to watch over the years. But life happens and you have to do what makes you happy. I to love building so I will probably continue to watch.
Wishing you the best of luck!!!!
Your videos have been fun to watch and would love to see a sailboat build! (even if its just a voiceover with highlights of your progress) Whoever buys the plane please put up a video of the finished plane!!
What your videos brought me? Perspective and insight as to what I would be taking on as a novice builder. Thank you for the many hours and effort you put into presenting that. You left your mark.
I know it was a tough decision to make but it seems that you are at peace with it and that weight has been lifted. From someone who has followed you from the beginning and has been building a -10 since 2018 I will be sad to see you go. But like others have said I’ll continue to follow along as I appreciate the video format and “personality/openness” you portray in the videos.
I do have one request if the new owner is okay with it and that is a video of the “crating” process and transportation arrangements.
Thanks for being so open/candid with the journey and good luck with your future endeavors Jason. God Bless!
Jason, There are sooooo many good boat kits available. Spend a few months looking. And don’t get 2 footitis. All the best, and keep us posted.
Aviation guy here so obviously I came for the plane stuff, but I stayed for (and became a patron) the excellent way you presented your content. I make safety and training videos as part of my job so I can well appreciate the amount of work that goes into putting out the content that you create. I've had more than one conversation with my boss about the 45 to 1 rule i.e. 45 minutes of work to make 1 minute of content and that's only if everything goes perfectly which it rarely does.
You didn't mention what's to become of your patreon supporters but for me, I'll stay on board no matter what you build as long as you stay true to your well established high quality video production standards. Meaning I know its tempting to go the Andrew Kilgore or Build Fly Go route of hanging some cheap cameras whereever and then just doing voice over sped up footage, but there's a reason I'm your patron and not their's even though I watch all of it.
Thank you for bringing us along on this journey so far. Good luck on the sale of your project and best of luck on your upcoming move/new life.
Love it Jason. Sounds you get it. Doing the things you love is most important. Building is a lot of fun. Thanks for all the videos throughout the years.
Hope you're doing well!
I think you are right about the -8 vs. -10. I started my RANS S-21 in July of 2020 and I’m already at or beyond where you are at in less than 3 years of fairly casual building and some months long hiatuses when my mother died and other life events got in the way. The S-21 is a much less intense build than the -10. I do believe you would have been far better off with a two-place model that would have gotten you much farther, much faster and for much less money. Engine prices are crazy, but the $43K for my Rotax is a lot less than $70K for your engine.
WOW!!!...It's like the running scene in Forest Gump. When he said I don't want to do this anymore. One of his followers said, "what do we do now?" LOL
Going to miss you updating the RV-10 build project. Working on my own RV-10 empenage right now.
Good luck in your future endeavors.
Jason, Sorry to hear you're letting the RV 10 go. Its been fun watching the plane come together this far
I'm really interested to see what your next build is going to be. People interested in building planes are people who are interested in building stuff in general. So don't sweat the losing viewers.
My guess for your next project is that its going to be a kit car like a factory five or a restoration of a bike.
You are honest with yourself and being true to yourself. That's the right way to live life. I hope this all works completely in your favor. I can relate to what you're going through right now; I might also have to make some tough decisions soon. It will be a while before I'll know what my future holds; hoping I can stay the course and follow through on my flying plans this year. We'll see.
Jason, thank you for being honest about your decision. I have subscribed to your channel because you were always honest, and your videography is exceptional. I have wanted to build a -10 as well, but I agree with u on costs nowadays! You have gotten me to continue towards renewing my PPL, and I appreciate that. I wish you the best and look forward to more of your videos, no matter the subject matter.
This has been a FUN 'tag-a-long' over the years. And Life Happens! Priorities change all the time. Usually, I'd say, "Be YOU!" yet... the Wife is ALWAYS a SIGNIFICANT factor!! Do BOTH of you!! =)
I'll keep watching. The new location may not be close to an airport... but have you EVER thought about building a Helicopter???
BEST of luck with the sale!!
STOL plane :)
Building and flying are two totally different things. Many people just like one or the other. Best of luck with your new adventures!
(I gave up sailing for aviation - so I guess you just evened things out? 🙂)
Best of luck to you in the future. Totally agree, do what you love. I think I will stick around for the next adventure.
Thank you for sharing all of your hard work and experience!
You build good stuff and make good videos. Looking forward to your next set of projects!
Have there been any recent updates on the sale, Jason and his move? Jason it would be great to have an update video.
Thanks for making the videos. It's what got me building!
Sorry to hear about a Jason! I've enjoyed watching your series, and will miss it. Good luck to you and the future
I am looking forward to your next project. I learned a lot watching your channel. Do I smell a boat?
Jason, best of luck with the move and journey ahead! Your channel really helped to demystify the build process and show us that building an airplane, while not easy, really is doable. When I finish eating my proverbial elephant, I hope you'll be out at Oshkosh or Sun n' Fun to check it out.
Hey, we chatted briefly at Oshkosh. Sorry to see you give up the build, but I completely understand. New beginnings!
I enjoyed watching your videos. Good luck heading into your future.
It's a hard choice to make and one my wife is very worried about if I decide to build a plane. Loved watching your videos and if I ever do build you can be sure I'll be looking at your older ones for reference
Cool looking place! Build a helipad there and get a kit helicopter...
I'll see myself out.
Sorry, I had to..! I'm glad to see you're OK, even if I'm sorry you're selling -- but obviously you're doing what works. I think you did an incredibly good job of documenting the the good, the bad, and the less pretty of what it means to build a Vans kit. You have a knack as a storyteller -- I realize it's hard work, but it feels pretty genuine, which is why I stayed on as a Patreon. Good luck with what comes next, I'm looking forward to an update!
Sorry to hear that you are Stopping your Build journey Jason. I know that you have been contemplating this for a long time now and your decision to sell was a hard one to make. I am happy to hear that you are moving on to different adventures in your life with your wife, maybe we can all see you at Osh to say so long and Be happy !
One of my dreams is to buy kits just like this and finish them. I'll be crunching numbers if you need me.
It might not be great, but I do plan to make an offer.
Also looking forward to seeing the future of the channel!
Jason, thanks for all the videos... You have to do whats best for you and I'm happy for you. :)
I've been watching your build videos for the past 6 or 7 years and I must say I've been waiting for this announcement ever since the last time you began mumbling about not being feeling it for the flying part. The itch to fly is something you're either born with or not. I've always loved airplanes and flying. At 12 I was in the CAP, at 20 I was in the Air Force, at 25 I was flying ultra-lights and at 30 I bought my first plane. I'm now 76 and still love everything about flying, that will never change. If you don't feel about flying the way you do about your motorcycles, then you've made the right decision to bail. Sorry to see you go.
bTw, you mentioned that you have a plane. What do you plan on doing with it?
I am selling it. Feel free to reach out =)
dang dude, if I still lived in Hayesville, NC, I'd take the whole hangar right off your hands with everything in it..... Miss the mountains. 😞
There is a difference from those who love airplanes and those who love to fly them. I’ve never been a fanboy of different airplanes nor could I goto OshKosh and tell you which each one was. BUT I fly a 737 for a legacy airline for a living and love to fly. Also I’m a CFI, CFII and MEI and airline pilot instructor. So I’m the opposite of you sir, I love to fly and teach but would have no desire build an airplane or posters of airplanes on my wall. God bless your transparency. Appreciate your honesty!
I get it just do what you enjoy what you do. I totally understand the builder thing. I enjoy building stuff but once I'm done with it it's time for it to move on and start another one. I would have enjoyed flying 30 years ago but not so much today. I have always wanted to build a boat.
Good luck on the sale. I wanted to catch up with you on my motorcycle, but looks like that will have to wait. looks like you are about 4hrs from me right now. +8 after your move.
Sorry to hear this but I totally understand it. I’m at the same place with my 7. Best of luck in the future.
Quero mais vídeos. Pra ver o fim do projeto construindo um avião rv10.
Good on you for realizing it's not for you. If you want to scratch the aviation pitch, 1.5hrs on your bike and a flying school, Job sorted. Looking forward to seeing your next build.
Thank you Jason, it was a pleasure and a joy seeing you build this plane… very entertaining. Good luck in your next chapter! Cheers from Tampa. Ps: are you selling your other plane? 😏😉
Yes I am.. feel free to reach out =)
Sounds like you need a plane with floats lol Im the opposite, a pilot is what I am I just cant afford it since retiring from the Army. The costs have made it something I can't do either and its literally driving me insane!
Dude I know you said it yourself, but its obvious a huge weight has been lifted off your shoulders. Best of luck at your new digs!
This makes me sad! I’ve been watching you for years…. Best of luck to you.
Build the house with a RUNWAY
Good luck on your next adventure..
Good luck bro!
Are you selling everything as a complete project only? Makes sense in regards to the plane. What about the tools?
Best of luck in your new life adventures. If you don't feel the past time and treasure spent on this project were a waste, then they weren't. All of us strangers may have our own opinions, but only you get a vote. 😉
Build a house channel would be great :)
Sad to see that you're selling but I get it. I'm selling just for the sole reason that I got priced out of the game. I ran the numbers and they just no longer make sense, even if my kit was magically completed today. Since the pandemic, prices for fuel, insurance, and everything else have just ballooned out of a place I can reach.
If you had started with any of my projects instead, you would of been done in under 9 months and spent less than $2,000 and have been flying a decade or more ago. But even I don't want to do that work, which is probably only 2% of what it'd take to build a Vans from scratch. I don't even have that much enthusiasm or energy any more. Building a 20ft flatbed trailer to move it around on took it al out of me and was a massive project in itself.
I sort of wondered how this would go back when you first started. I don’t recall the details anymore and haven’t watched the old videos, but I recall that you decided to build the airplane to essentially have long distance fast transportation to a job site. That isn’t a very good reason to invest the time required to build an airplane. I am building mine because I love to fly and I love to build. No real practical purpose in mind, just like doing it. I think if you really don’t like what you are doing, then it will be hard to persevere.
You're doing the right thing! You have to follow your heart. Plus the economy of the Country is in the toilet. And it is not going to get any better soon! I wish you both the best! And thanks for the great Videos and the hard work you have put into everything!
Any update after 3 months?
See if jimmy’s world will buy it
Jimmy will pay 200k for it and then not finish it.
@@pilotrhino sounds great!
@@pilotrhino that’s hilarious! But true!
Thanks for the laugh!
Hey Jason. If the new builder wishes to make videos on the plane build, can you share the channel?
Jason, have you sold your plane yet?
I gave you thumbs up for the video but saddened about the content. You could always build a 2 place helicopter in your new garage and no runway required 🙂 You are an inspiration to everyone 🙂 Wishing the best for you and your family 🙂
life is certainly a journey. Best of luck on your next project!
Jason, the costs to complete the build you're describing are insane. $70K for the engine? I don't fault you for selling everything.
Are you selling the plane too?
Yes, feel free to reach out if you're interested in it.
Sad to see your plane journey end but it sounds like the right decision for you. Excited to see your next chapter! Wish I could afford to entertain the idea but plane ownership is decades away for me. God Bless!
moving to the coast? Sailboat building channel
Is it still available?
Did you sell yet
I think this is one of those situations where if you have to ask you can’t afford it.
Sorry to hear but unavoidable. If your spouse is not into it, it’s not going anywhere. It’s just one of the factors you mentioned, but IMHO the most significant
Like I said, Vans builders never finish.
Too insanely ambitious.
I don't even have an interesting finishing my ultralights.
Way better and more fun and cheaper ways to fly now tham a straight and level blah airplane.
slap the videos on a thumb drive
I agree with most of your reasons. I'm not going to continue with my plan to build a 10 because of the overpriced engine and avionics. Greed has really taken over and I'm not wanting any part of it anymore.
Sorry to see the project go Jason but if you are moving to the NC Coast, reply to this message so we can connect and Ill gladly let you help me build mine :-) I also have a place down there but Im more inland on the permanent house where Im building.
Oriental =)
@@JasonEllisBuilds good choice, except for the hurricanes! Good luck! Hope to run into you some day. We can compare notes. I ordered a 7A and once reality set in after all the price increases, I called Vans and cancelled the order. Now looking for a 182 with which to travel between Wilkesboro and the coast.
Maybe you should build a motorbike!!
Saw this coming for a while.
I think the bigger concern would be obtaining the repairman certificate for this build (one of the major reasons people go Experimental to begin with, not having to shell out the dough for an annual inspection) being its beyond the 51% stage you'd either have to take a 16 hour repairman course, or disassemble the kit to a point below the 51% so the new builder can then start the build from there and be eligible for the repairman's certificate at time of registration.
I don’t think that really matters. There’s no definition of “primary builder” by the FAA, so whoever’s name is on Form 8130-6, block III gets the designation.
The is fundamentally untrue, and frequently misunderstood. The 51% rules applies only to the registration of the Experimental Amateur Built (EAB) airplane. It. has nothing to do with the builder or anything else. The 51% rule mandates that one or more amateurs completes the major portion (51% or more) of the tasks that are documented in the FAA's evaluation checklist for that purpose. Completely separate from that, and in no way related or connected to the 51% rule, is the Repairman's Certificate, which the builder applies for with the local FDSO upon completion, and can be issued when the FAA evaluator is convinced that the applicant has sufficient hands-on exprience, familiarity and knowledge necessary to safely safely and thoroughly inspect that one aircraft at the condition inspection, and to sign off that inspection annually. In addition, the 16-hour repairman's course is unrelated to EAB aircraft. It applies only to Experimental Light Sport Aircraft (ELSA), and the actual title of the person who completes that course is Light Sport Repairman (LSR). That two-day class allows the person who takes it to perform the annual inspection on their personally-owned ELSA airplane(s). It does not apply to the repairman's certificate for EAB aircraft.
Given the stage of construction this RV-10 is at, it is not unrealisatic that a FSDO representative could grant the person who completes it the EAB repairman's certificate. That is at the discretion of the official issuing the certificate. And, for certain, disassembling and reassembling is neither necessary nor is it a good idea.
@@FlyVansAircraft Greg, Thanks for this explanation. Maybe a sit-down video with a Van's representative and a DAR or someone from the FSDO to present this? Seems there are as many explanations of the 51% Rule than there are grains of sand on a beach.
@Van's Aircraft please show me a build where an armature builder or a group of amateurs have fully built the aircraft, and a different person not within that group, was able to receive the repairman's certificate from the local fsdo or any DAR for that matter.
Yes there's a reason the 51% rules exists for E/AB aircraft to be registered as an experimental. But to assume that you can pick up a project past the 51% (sometimes WELL beyond) AND get the repairman's certificate on that particular build without any trouble from a DAR or local FSDO is simply not true either.
@@hcr-motorworks The facts are this: In order to register the aircraft EAB, you must meet the 51% rule. In order for an individual builder to receive the repairman's certificate, he or she must show the FSDO they have the requisite knowledge and experience to inspect the aircraft and sign the condition inspection. The 51% rule is not tied to the repairman certificate and the appropriateness to issue is determined by the examiner. Also, importantly we are discussing this in the context of this specific RV-10 build, and it is nowhere near fully-built. The person who finishes it may (or may not - the official making that decision is the only person who will determine) perform work determined by the official to satisfy the requirements of the repairman's certificate. Not trying to argue here, just stating facts for people who might decide to take on the project. For anyone interested in the project, talk with your local FSDO as part of your due diligence and decision-making process. Theirs is the only opinion that matters in the end.
I understand your position, but it sucks that all of us followed this for so many years. That said, I abandoned getting my PPL just because GA is obscenely expensive. Unless your just loaded, It's very hard to justify. Whoever buys this needs to put it on CZcams!
No way.
