    The family flyer in the early 80's was a PA23-250, I recall taking off from London Gatwick (EGKK) and getting a "door ajar" warning. We did the circuit whilst all those commercial jets were waiting and landed, pulled off just in front of the space suited ARFF vehicle. Reset the front cargo door, then headed off back home. So good to see one brought back to life.

      Hi from another Australian! I like how you keep the commentary going, like "boost pumps on" etc...its like having a flying lesson. Good to see you being cautious doing preflight, and attending to the fault you found. Is it true that some counterweights were made of depleted uranium?

    From my vantage point, you made that look textbook easy. I was impressed with the take off and departure, the sound of the motors sounded great!. Only thing I didn't catch was when an arow pointed to something at the left gear, was the gear door stuck open? Other than the hiccup you stated about with the fuel switchover it looked like a routine flight. I like that old bird, you and your team did a great job getting it back in the air!. Thanks for the great content Jimmy.

    My very first time I ever flew in an airplane. I was 18 yrs old & flew with my friends, boy friend from Camaron Park, CA to San Louis Abisbo, CA & returned two days later. Before we took off we waited at the Placerville CA Airport so he could take his Pilots flying test! He past his test with flying colors. He put his flight plan together & off we went in a Rented Beach Craft 4 seat plane. I couldn't really believe my mother let me go. I was of course nervous at first but he let me fly the plane for awhile, although he controled the foot pedals. I got hooked 😮. In my twenties, I started my ground school. Unfortunately, life has away of changing plans. So, I never completed ground school. I still love airplanes. I have flown alot on commercial airlines. I even got to know some of the Blue Angels flight crew & pilots back in the day. I Attended a lot of air shows. I am 66 yrs old & regret I never accomplished that goal. So, if you want to learn to fly, I say, go for it! ❤
