- čas přidán 16. 11. 2023
- This is the last video in the Turbulence build series. Finally able to get it out! For those wondering, Turbulence is still down. I am close to finding an engine for it, and then it will require a long road trip with tools and some long days swapping the engine out. I'm hoping after my house is complete to make it out there to do the engine swap. Don't worry though, we'll make a video of it! If I missed anything about Turbulence please comment below and I'll try to answer questions.

Just imagine Mike if the Wright brothers could go for a ride in Turbulence. ✌️🇨🇦
Wouldn't that be wild. Hey Orville and Wilbur...look what you started! 😂
Haha, I’ll say😂❤️. Hey , if you get a chance, my last vid on my channel is fun. Cheers Mike, look forward to what you do next. By the way, you are a pretty big link in the advancement of aviation
@@MikePatey I seem to recall my grandparents talk about seeing the Wright Brothers... then taking my dad and uncle to see Lindbergh and ultimately meeting Amelia Earhart. They both had their entire careers in Aviation, from Vultee to Rockwell, in Downey. My uncle was a design engineer on the Shuttle and a Historian on the P-51 including the race planes (Dustin Carter)
Never mind that. Let Mike add a turbo and nitrous to the Wright Flyer. 😂
@@ehamster Ah, just stick a PT-6 on it... ;-)
Man, how easy could a men of Mike‘s accomplishments put his ego all over the place. What amazes me over and over again is his humbleness. Mankind needs more of it.
Maybe.....yet when I was visiting the US from Australia....I was in a really bad place in my life and thought a visit with Mike might lift me a bit. I offered to drive up from Phoenix....but....he didn't have time. Pity I wasn't cleetus McFarland....he had time to see him
@@malcolmmalcolm7829I bet Mike has a rigorous schedule where his days are fully mapped out months in advance. He pulls off an enormous amount of work because of his discipline. I guarantee that if he had had time, he would have made a minute for you. He’s an awesome guy who genuinely cares for people. I’m sure Cleetus was already mapped in there
@@malcolmmalcolm7829I don't know who you are, or even if I should for some reason, but to throw shade at a guy like Mike just because he couldn't meet with you is beyond my comprehension.
I am sorry but all I can say is Boo Hoo, get over yourself, Mike is one of the busiest people I have ever met, do you have any idea how many directions he is pulled every single day between all his businesses, his aviation endeavors, speaking engagements, building a house, building planes, search and rescue, and a hundred other things.
I would guess Mike gets hundreds if not thousands of requests a year to meet with someone, it would be physically impossible for him to accommodate every one of those requests for his time, and for you to complain because he met with Cleetus and not you screams massive narcissism.
@@HomesickforAlaska Mate, perhaps you could tread a little more sensitively, especially around those among us who are enduring dark times. Old mate Malcolm wasn't roasting MP, just expressing his disappointment, perhaps in a way that has been a little shaped by his difficult mind state. Cheers - Dave
I don't think humble is a word that I'd use to describe his character (brags a lot, has a CZcams channel devoted to his accomplishments, flaunts lifestyle). Doesn't really matter though. Dude is badass, genius, passionate, and makes cool shit.
This is sad, now knowing the fate of Turbulence. Can’t wait to see Turby’s rebirth!
😅 it’s in his hanger so he already fixed it or this was recorded prior either way I’m sure it won’t be long
@@nwanchorcertification nope. You’re not allowed to go back to work. Follow the posts…or, at least read the video description. Peace.
@@nwanchorcertification Mike replied to someone else here, it is still down and he has not had a chance to go back there to work on it.
You talking about the engine failure? Thats not a big deal lol the plane is still airworthy
@@dremwolf5419 just read the video description.
I love how he leveled at 17,500 because that’s as high as he could’ve gone while remaining VFR and outside of class A airspace 😆 that was frickin wild after an insane climb lol
Mike, as an air traffic controller here your aircraft is truly amazing and I’d love to work something like this in my airspace!
Mike is the epitome of what an aviator should be defined by! The enthusiasm is contagious even for a 73 yr. old guy who still dreams of getting his pilots license. Thanks Mike!
I love that radio exchange so much
😂 They got to know me quickly 😂
438mph!!! That is crazy fast for a small plane like that and im sure it felt great doing it. congrats on the new record and look forward to the rebirth of Turbulence once you get the engine stuff all figured out. Also thank you for constantly pushing the envelope in all your endeavors and being a joyful and humble person!

It’s always a pleasure to hear more about Turbulence, and I would also be very interested in hearing about your water making technology. Clean drinking water for everybody is a world problem that can actually be solved.
Mr. Beast partnership??
@@3SM20Pilot : you beat me to that one !
One of the most positive people on you tube and I see negative comments and people telling you what you should do, how you should do and when you should do. If you are not part of the solution you are definitely part of the problem and it amazes me how many idiots there are in the world. Mike works harder, does more than 99.9 percent of the population and is one of the most honest, humble and positive people I have met . Mike do what you do ,when you do it and I hope you ignore any of the naysayers, there are a lot of people who appreciate any content that you put out and I will continue to support you and your channel. Thank you for all the knowledge and entertainment you have provided these many years👍💪
I love all your videos, the engineering, the excitement, the fun. But something that you said here touched my heart and it wasn’t about aviation. It was about fresh water for the world. Our church adopted some villages in Gana, Africa, and when we first got there, the villagers were getting all of their water from an infested river. The digestive diseases they had were terrible. We were able to first supply water filtration systems, then rainwater harvesting systems, and finally fresh water wells. The change in their health has been amazing. Unfortunately there are places all around the world where the people are still drinking polluted water. Thanks to people like you, solutions are being tried to turn this around.
Thank you for that, and for the great aviation content!!
I thought I recognized that fuel truck!! When you cut to your pal, Marty Abbot, coming down the line with our little ski hill in the background...I knew that you were at my 'Home Drome', KAUW. I'm sure I was in the crowd, if not giving informal tours talking about the history of the field. Turbulence sure was THE hot rod in a group of hot rods that day!
Thanks BTW for your gift to Learn Build Fly, the 501C 3 mentoring organization on that field, we much appreciate the boost it provided!
What a wonderful visionary, engineer and determined aviator we have here in Mike Patey. Comes across as a gentleman with humility too - quite the aspirational combination! Cheers from Sydney - Dave
Mike plz let us know what you learned about the engine failure.
Keep the content coming. Really enjoy it.
Stay safe!!
Won't know anymore than we already do until we pull the engine. Can't wait to get out there and swap it, but got a few projects I need to finish up before I can do that.
Mike mentioned in a different video that tht engine was not new when he installed it - and he monitored the engine params every second I believe - there is a chance the engine was over temped or hot started a few times, which can significantly reduce TBO
@ghostrider-be9ek I remember that, and I believe I heard that it was going to be sent to P&W to be inspected.
@@Do-UR-Research2749 yes, PWC like to investigate odd failures like this as they are so unusual - PT6s rarely fail uncontained like this. I've personally seen PT discs open up like a flower, shed all the blades and not eject parts radially outwards.
@@ghostrider-be9ekso not like blowing on a dandelion like Mike experienced.
As a mechanic, not a pilot what astounds me the most is the incredible amount of power that that little PT6 can generate from a little bit of Jet-A!
I don't think people truly appreciate the amount of engineering that it takes to be able to produce over a thousand horsepower from a sub 500 lb engine and do it continually for thousands of hours!
Mike I don’t know how you get the time. But you must have 32 hrs in a day and 10 day work week. What planet, time zone etc do you live on? This is truly amazing. And hats off to your wife for supporting this. Not many can. Just remember to give thanks on Sunday!
In the skies where winds do dance,
A tale of Mike Patey, his plane's advance.
Through turbulence, a daring flight,
In the boundless blue, a fearless sight.
Wings slicing through the chaotic air,
Mike's spirit soaring without a care.
His plane, a vessel, a fearless steed,
In the tempest's grasp, a noble deed.
Turbulence, a challenge embraced,
Mike's courage and skill interlaced.
Among the clouds, where storms do brew,
He navigates with a heart so true.
A maverick in the vast expanse,
Mike Patey, a pilot, takes a chance.
Through twists and turns, he finds his way,
In the turbulence, a ballet in the gray.
The air becomes a canvas wild,
As Patey's plane, like a fearless child,
Dances through the gusts and roars,
Defying gravity, seeking more.
In the cockpit, a symphony of might,
Mike guides his plane through day and night.
Through turbulence, a journey bold,
A tale of aviation, forever told.
👍👍👍
Thank you for taking time to compose and share this. I appreciate it.
chatgpt type rhyme
i guess ai doesn't sign youtube comments
@@eugeneputin1858 Only people who live sad existences have to leave comments like you just did. You showed more about you than anything.
Instant sub! I’m an aviation nut, owned a Comanche 260 & loved it but through some unfortunate events I had to give it up. Love the channel already! The enthusiasm & excitement is great! God has obviously blessed you tremendously!
Cheers!
Welcome!
Best motivational video one could ask for on a Sat morning. I'm going back to work!
I have no clue about aviation nor any major technical knowhow but i,m fascinated with the things you show and love your enthousiasm, stay safe and keep us showing your wild projects ! People give this man a like when you watch this 😉
WOW! You’re as fast a P-51 Mustang. Are you going to offer a kit from Turbulence design? Congratulations on the speed record. You know there might just be a market for a long range high cruise speed business airplane version. Hmm 🤔 Sincere respect and admiration for what you’ve accomplished here. WELL DONE SIR 👍👍👍❤️
Mike! You done somethings no one has done before, and they work. You are makeing a big part in the world advancing. Haven't been watching alot of videos lately because im always trying to ge back to work, and thats because of your inspiration.
You're part of what inspired me to get my PPL. Got it 4 months ago and going for my instrument. Love flying. I get why it's a passion for you!
I’m hooked, love your positivity
It is always mind-blowing everything you do from an idea to its realization, the best inspiration in life, and "learning a little more every day until the day you die" has a very deep meaning. That's the beauty of this life. Happy holidays to you and your family.
What an incredible life story and it has much more to go. What an inspiration!
Hope the repairs are coming along well!!!😎
Thanks for making this series, Mike. I've wondered many years of watching your videos about the details of Turbulence. Just got two "BACK TO WORK" t-shirts for my fiancé and myself, and they are awesome! Can't wait to see what you build next.
Glad you like them!
I'm waiting to see you take your PC-12 and make it supersonic! LOL!!
Can't wait to see Turbulence back in the air, though. I'm still impressed with your handling of that emergency. Well done!
Mike thank you for sharing your life with us. I have been involved with the public address side of air shows since 1985 in South Africa. I have been told to leave in 2022 but have never had the privilege to see something like Turbulence. The fastest " Single engine" I have seen I have seen was a Lance Air. ( Excluding fighter jets of course 🤣🤣 I absolutely love your passion for aviation. Onwards to greater and better things from South Africa.
The fly over says it all!!!
One of the reasons I enjoy watching your videos is that one day I might return to flying and this is motivating. I usually watch them as I get up in the morning in my big truck then go do my pre trip to start the day.
I know practically nothing about airplanes. I've been watching every video for a few years now - super cool.
As a fan of backcountry airplanes and a long time 185 owner, my request for you would be to build the equivalent of a DHC-3 Otter that did 300 Knots for 1,000 miles. Land short, big useful load, room for stuff, go fast, go far.
Is that all?🙃
That’s so Mike… literally giving blood for the aviation community! ❤
I know that guy!
Amazing video! You can see in your face how much all this means to you. Its refreshing
Thank you....however I got really interested in the crazy house build.....need to see more! And hopefully a walk through of the whole house at some point!
Working on a house episode now, should have something out in the next few weeks. Hold strong 🤠
"Wait, WHAT" that was funny! Great stuff Mike P.
Your enthusiasm for aviation is second to no one….well done sir!👍👍
My son and I are after the flying Saucer, it is possible when humanity improves to always seek the best interest of our neighbors all around the world ❣️ love you 💕
What a blessed life you have Mike, to be able to indulge the things you love to do.
Hey Mike! I've been watching you since Draco and love everything about your entrepreneurial work ethic, engineering mind and overall presence. Thank you. I'm not an Aviator but I am fan of your world. My world is (currently) beer. I own a brewery in Waco, Texas and one of our flagship beers is also called Turbulence. Coincidence? Definitely. However, I would still send you a few cans of our Turbulence IPA if you would appreciate them. I used to live in Orem and Lehi, just to your north so I am not offended if you decline. I just thought there might be a connection between our different worlds. And maybe it can help with the rebirth of your Turbulence. Cheers, Sir. I look forward to your next builds. Oh, and the house too! "Every time something new gets built (or brewed) the entire world advances." Thanks, again.
Thanks, Mike! You have started off the weekend in the best way with a cool little video on Turbulence.
Mike we would love to see more footage of Turbulence’s awesome speed !! Great job , and kudos to you , your family and your team.
WOW...Mike that is mighty fast for a prop plane and a BIG CONGRATS on that build....Fly safe my friend and God Bless you and yours ❣
Old Shoe🇺🇸
So stoked as soon as I saw this at +4 min. Let's goooo
Thanks Mike. Very inspirational.
Congratulations Mike!
Mike is correct in saying that he is adding time to his life, because the closer you get to the speed of light, the slower time goes, so when he is flying, even though he is moving faster than the rest of us, time is going by slower compared to what our time is going by.
Ty my good man! Appreciate that!
Congratulations Mike! Thanks for the inspiration. You're an example for us all.
That was fun, now back to work!💪 🤠
Amazing machine and work , inspirationnal, thanks for sharing !
Hello Mike, it’s Joe from Phoenix Arizona! I’m 57 years old and got my private pilot license back at Phoenix sky Harbor at 1987. I got an instrument rating about 20 years later but the last few years I have not flown due to this crazy medical condition, basically I take something that won’t allow me to fly or to get a medical I should say anyway just came across your channel and really like it so I’m probably your newest subscriber. I’m sure you flown into Sedona but I had to mention it it’s such a beautiful place, OK I’m looking forward to watching your other videos and seeing what other accomplishments you are making in the world sounds like you have a lot going on with your different companies and I’m very interested in all of that. Thanks for sharing your life with us.
I’m pretty picky about CZcams subs. Mike, Destin from smarter everyday, and only a handful of others make the cut. Keep up the good work!
Mike, your are definitely a great contributer to the advancement of our world. You and your brother are absolute genius's. I cant wait to see the results of replacing the engine in Turbulence. I am sure it will be even better than before. Thats just how you are. I am about to schedule my checkride for my PPL, and you are a huge influencer in my finally chasing my dream. Thank you for all you do. Keep up the excellent work. Safe skies my friend, and happy holidays to you and your family. 🤘🇺🇸🛩️
This guy is one of the most amazing men in the world, with a heart that is so humble.
Mike, you are a legend! Man after my own heart! I am a mechanical design engineer by choice! Love the channel, now back to work!
Amazing dude absolutely brilliant, im always so impressed with the engineer you do
That was absolutely incredible! Thank you very much Mike.
You’re always pushing the limits, I hope you stay safe. No doubt you are miles ahead with strength through engineering.
Mike thank you for letting us see a little piece of your incredible world. With the challenge that you have spoken of, of a airframe that has high speed yet can then turn into a slow flight aircraft in my opinion is the true need for the firefighting air tanker aircraft for the next generation. The modification of commercial jets to do the job is great for response, but speed reduction for safe application is the challenge. I can see your knowledge having such a huge positive impacts for the future of firefighting. And again thank you for all the positive impacts you have already done and continue to do. Back to work making flight safer.
A true Renaissance man.
Your work IS paying it forward for the next generation.
Your expertise goes far beyond the flight envelope. I think you are pushing people to step out of their comfort zone and expand their vision in all aspects of life.
Wishing you and your familia a great holiday season.
class act, and an exceptional asset to general aviation.
We love you Mike Patey
RICK EVANS
Awesome achievement. Well done. Thankyou for pushing the envelope and inspiring others to do the same.
Always great content, Mike! Scrappy will find its place on my desk:)
As an Engineer i love your content, your builds are awesome.
Glad you like them!
Awesome video. Inspirational to say the least. Along with your story about it showing the fortitude and drive factors it takes to make it happen.
love watching these. one of the best stories online!
Wow !!!! Amazing. Congratulations Mike.
Woah! Congrats 🎉
I’ll definitely get the miniature Scrappy to go along with my wing spars 👍
Truly one of the most inspirational men on the planet. We could all do better with just a little piece of his attitude, compassion and drive.
Long live the G.O.A.T. Of GA
Congrats Mike... What a great and humble guy ....
Mike, I don't know if it's already been said but you (and Mark, for that matter) really *REALLY* need to write a book. You’ve shared some great stories that are not only entertaining but are also informative and always provide a life lesson takeaway, or safety lesson to make not only better pilots but also better people. I don’t have a pilot’s license (bucket list) but I love all things aviation and watching your videos has inspired me in more ways that you can imagine not just in aviation but in the way you do life and your passion to help others as well.
You have so many great stories and wisdom to share, Mike. Seriously, consider partnering with an author (because we know you are crazy busy) to do your own “Patey” autobiography (Nod to “Yeager”) and I guarantee that it will hit the best seller list.
I'd read it
Wheeeee dogggie, Mike is an inspiration!! It’s unreal how he just started redoing Turbulence five months before the race, drilling big holes in the wings, swapping engines, etc, etc and boom, he’s ready in time with a record setting machine. He picks up new skills all along the way and excels at each of them. We are living in a fantastic time where men like Mike are probing the limits of what is possible, having a blast doing it and sharing it with us! What a blessing that Mike pulls us into his awesome world where we can see how it’s done!!
you inspire me. thank you so much!
Mind blowing as always!! Keep up the great content.🔥🛩️ Can't wait for news on the rebuild.
I can’t even imagine having your skill and knowledge of mechanics and machines. I want to do some simple mods on my motorcycle but don’t know how or have the tools required if I did. I think if I had your brain Mike, it might be a curse. I don’t think I could ever sleep. I admire you and your brother greatly
Man, Mike is a legend. Love his humility too. What an awesome life to live.
i wish i could be half the manwe see in these videos. obviously we dont see who the man is when he isn't being recorded but I have a feeling he's a pretty good man all around. he's definitely talented and very successful.
@@shwilliedude973 He's an even better man off camera...if you can believe that.
@@JoshKelson yeah, I can believe it.
Congratulations 👏🏼
What an awesome story, Mike!! Best content on YT. Keep it up and back to work 😁
Thank you! Will do!
Congratulations to a grateful competitor! The smartest man on earth!
To meet people like that who are truly happy for you and encourage your success is so fortunate and rare, God really blessed this guy. I’m sure he’s worked hard and deserves every good thing that comes his way.
Can't wait to see what's next! Whatever you post, I'll get the notification and you better believe I'll be watching!
I'm 58 & have never been on a plane! Yet, I love them! 👍
Inspiring work and love the attitude and work ethic! Keep it up! Blue skies
Mike, you are my favorite, I watched all your builds and I can’t wait to see what’s is coming, what ever it is it’s sure will be exciting.
Safe travels.
Congratulations! I can only imagine what an awesome feeling it must be to not only go that fast but to win such an awesome spot in the books!
This is like reliving the golden age of racing all over again /// wait a minute ... This is the golden age of air racing . Thanks Mike, for sharing the excitement. Aviation really is where dreams can and do come true. congrats
With Turbulence, you're not saving "just a little" each time you fly. You're saving several hours compared to flying commercially. On top of that, you can get into smaller airports closer to your destination, saving even more. All that while flying through the air at airliner speeds, except that it climbs to cruise altitude much faster.
Mike, what a wonderful achievement!
Another great video Mike. It’s amazing what you do with those planes. I love learning from you.
Thanks for sharing, Mike.
On behalf of those who can never pass the medical but enjoy the industry.
Since I found your stuff here Mike - nothing but inspiring brilliance and kindness.
Apex level aviation :)
Remember the number one rule of life. To much of any one thing is not good for you. The world of aviation would suck without you Mike.
Hi Mike, Love the content you produce and the inspiration you provide to all of us.
While I'm certain you've thought of this, and it's been mentioned a couple of times, but I can't help but think fairings around the exhaust of Turbulence would get you a couple extra knots of airspeed. Perhaps you could do a video of you running a model in the software you used while designing the wing for Scrappy?
Looking forward to seeing the house finished. Now back to work. 💪
What an amazing inspiration you are Mike. Thank you.
👍✌️ soldier that is truly impressive.. thank you for all the work you have done.. thank you for all the work you are doing.. thank you for pushing the envelope of what people are truly capable of... You will be a force to be reckoned with for a long time..✌️👍
Super appreciate all you do for aviation and the great state of Utah!! Looking forward to seeing Turbulence again.
Inventing to me is fun! The challenge to figure out something new/ways of doing things, thinking outside the box, even refusing to stay within a box at times, always expanding knowledge & pushing for better possibilities.
