    The Mission: To save a stripped out and forgotten D-Day Airplane from the Scrapyard and get her flying for the 75th anniversary of D-Day (June 6th, 2019).
    The Timeframe: We have only 6 months to get the DC-3 flying.
    The Reason: This airplane is only a handful left in the world that actually flew on D-Day. We are getting her flying in the memory of people who lost their lives that day, June 6th, 1944.
    The Cost: Everything we have.
    I hope you AvGeeks enjoy the episode!

    Thanks Mikey! Another great one - fantastic to see the new Bell 525 doing cold-weather testing. That is one sweet looking aircraft - I bet it's as nice to fly as it is to look at. Darn, you get all the fun of meeting the great folks there for the project. Thanks to Bell for graciously allowing Plane Savers worldwide to have a peek. I can guarantee one thing: I've lived and worked in and around Yellowknife, and I've lived and worked some in Texas too. I guarantee you that the Bell guys will never see Texas quite the same way after weeks of enjoying the Yellowknife winter.

    Very nicely done Mikey! Always enjoy the audio & video "magic" that you bring in each and every episode. That was also a nice shout-out to the Bell folks for what they're bring in to the local community (that still shot of fish & chips looked mighty tastey) which was good on you and it's always nice when Stella makes a cameo appearance. Hope you enjoyed your day off my friend. You keep filming & informing, we'll keep watching & learning! Cheers

    @davidjones8680 Před 5 lety

    Well done Mikey, you dovetailed all that together so neatly. Love how you got back to the hanger to meet up with "Wing it Wednesday" Mikey again, and that he had left all of the stuff from the mail he had opened on the table... THAT was a very subtle and neat bit if continuity there Mr Producer man!
    And as you said on film, many many thanks to Bell for allowing all that to happen. I hope that another third 'off camera Mikey', got to see the new helicopter close up, or maybe sat in it, or even had a short ride in it? We will never ever know the answer to that one, as WE KNOW you would always do the right thing in respecting their privacy.
    So, I hope you enjoyed your day off, the first one for a long time, and I appreciate that you did it in a way that didn't leave us, the viewers, without our daily Plane Savers fix.
    I'm looking forward to the live stream tomorrow. I HAVE A REALLY REALLY IMPORTANT AND INTERESTING QUESTION TO ASK YOU!!!!
    So, see you tomorrow, and please try not to be late this week... Lol.

    David Jones,
