Herb-O-Matic 007 , man of mystery. Because nobody knows whats going on but were here anyways. 🤣
Best description of this channel I've read yet. 👍👍
Cool project. Can't believe the motor is attached to the air frame with such small bolts.
It freaked me out! AN hardware is weirdly strong! I've tried to break a #10 AN3 and it was a tough booger. I've never heard of an engine falling off a Mooney so I'm going to fire that sucker up and fly!.
@@HerbOMaticnever, apart from your engine... apparently.
man, Goodwill has everything! 70s tube TVs, 80s band shirts, used shoes, and aircraft engines. it's awesome!
They had a broken keyboard I bought a broken keyboard!
hahaha!@@HerbOMatic
You two are time travelers. That explains everything.
Lol, we talked alot about that during our courtship.
Yea. A bunker and a plane. Where did I miss up in life.
That shag carpet in the cockpit is priceless! Thanks for all the laughs, you two work well together
I like the interior! We figure it's cheaper to buy bell bottoms than install a new interior!
Herb-O-Matic: The most interesting man in the world.
I remember when wrestling on TV was fake. I'm glad that's been straightened out.
I hate that fake wrestling! Real wrestlers don't have to touch their opponents to flip them, these guys are real masters!
The comedic relief is fantastic 😂
I've never been this entertained watching someone hang an eninge in a small plane. LOL. Last plane I worked on was a piper cub and that was a long time ago. Cool video! Y'all are brilliant.
Cubs are awesome! I learned in a Champ, kind of an off-brand Cub!
I’d trust you to do any and every other type of work. Plumbing, electrical, industrial high rise building construction, particle accelerator design and fabrication.
But airplanes are absolutely no joke. Watching enough Jimmys World it’s clear every nut, bolt, washer, dot of oil, sideways glance and thought about the airplane requires documentation, registration, license and oversight.
Guess what I’m trying to say is I hope you are certified (not the crazy kind) or have someone else who’s certified quintuple checking your work.
Lots of people would be very sad if the bunker never got completed because you both went the way of Ritchie Valens and others.
Love the airplane, happy to see someone I like working on airplanes after Jimmys World stopped doing it.
Please stay safe.
Herb-O-Matic = AP? Wow, I'm truly impressed! Nice Mooney btw.
This man definitely knows his audience. 3:24
Pearl is a cute puppy!
This channel just keeps getting better! Very cool project. I can't believe that entire engine is held on by four 1/4 inch bolts!
Remember, it pulls the airplane around by those bolts too!
Very cool. When I was in the Navy I worked on SH-60B helicopters and one time I had to replace a main gear box due to corrosion. The main gear box is what the rotor head is connected to for those who are unsure. There are only 8 bolts that attach the main gear box to the airframe and I would say they are around 1/2" shaft diameter. Half inch bolts are good size but the helicopter fully loaded weighs 10 tons. The main gear box and rotor blades and other parts attached to the gear box may weigh 2-3 tons. Aircraft bolts are no joke when it comes to their strength.
DUDE! AZ pilot myself I knew your channel was something great! New aviation channel??? Yessssss
out of all the people who probably shouldn't lay hand on a plane engine, you are the one I'd like to watch doing it anyways. just make sure you don't crash, we still need to know where the poop go.
Holy crap, it's like Vice Grip Garage meets Rebuild Rescue... (RIP Sam)
So awesome to see a herbomatic video drop today! Keep up the great work
I'm working on keeping up the great work, it's alot of work. I gotta get back to work.
Interesting video of you putting your shiny new engine ( found behind Walmart)in your airplane, great job 👍👍
This plane project will be cool to follow.
You guys are a cute couple. She puts up with you, yet positive things transpire..
Using comedy and saying "all the things" about where he found the engine, nothing matters, it'll be fine.... all the while knowing "everything" matters when flying is hilarious. I loved "my mechanic told me it is a big deal"
Herb, man of mystery with many facets.
Keep up the great work... and dont fall out of the sky please.
I know NOTHING about airplane stuff but im no dummy to mechanics, I would have never guessed that those four small bolts would be all that held the engine to the rest of the body...??? WOW!!!!
Can't wait to see u do more of the bunker hope u fined all the pipes soon
Love the channel and content.
Had a '68 M-20F. Great airplane.
A plane now ? Cool, add a car restoration and a house renovation and you can covert by yourself 90% of my youtube algorithm !
Stay tuned, I have a feeling you'll like what's in the pipe.
Gads... twenty seconds in, and I'm in tears laughing. My complements to your wife, who IIRC writes most of the jokes... you two look like you have a lot of fun making these, and who doesn't love a man who can (sort of) fly?!?
Whatever you guys do, we're along for the ride... whether we understand it or not. 😋
👍✅ Getting better by the video, comedic genius, vending machines repairman, bomb shelters rebuilder and A&P!!! Loving it all man.
The QR codes on that crate look awfully familiar!
I was not into planes. But after that in depth tutorial I have got to get me a jet plane. OMG that parking lot wrestling was insane, WOW just WOW.
Quality content as usual
“Shaken not stirred”. 😉😂
A Mooney?! Those are awesome!
It's pretty sweet! Can't wait to get her up.
Herbs a talented small plane mechanic, goes along with the bomb shelter, you know for when the Zombie apocalypse is here, can get out of dodge and dive bomb them zombies 😂 Your wife always looks so thrilled at your projects 🙄 but she’s a keeper, their not making many more reds these days 👍
executive m20F its been. few years since i worked on a 67, spent a few years at a mooney dealer worked on radios there.did a lot of M20j and M20Ks
F was top of the line for a time. J is a spruced up F with speed mods. She was cheap and has a good useful load. Her radios are old as the hills old Narcos
@@HerbOMatic the panel is tough pre 77 it is easier today to get newer equipment! The older models are still fast we had a mark21 that we put gap seals and it climbs nice
I enjoyed seeing my name scroll over battling Luchadors.
What's your Patreon name?
@@HerbOMatic Jonathan Giesbrecht
Thanks pitching in Jonathan!@@Paper_and_Light
You two are absolutely ridiculously hysterical. I just can’t stop laughing. Keep it up.
"I have so many questions"
-The FAA, probably
Very nice!
A little bit scary that the only thing holding on the engine are those tiny bolts. I guess they are grade 8 (similar to metric 10.9) so pretty strong bolts, but still scary. Fantastic video 👏, thumbs up 👍😎
They are AN hardware pretty stout! I think grade 8 may be slightly stronger but more brittle. I need to test them side by side.
@@HerbOMatic Ok, thanks for the reply.
I love your content glad that you have the time to make more!! Keep it coming.
What an awesome video! Herb I didn’t know you were a pilot and an A&P. Kudos! love the airplane. That engine is sweet. I used to fly. I had a 1975 Cessna Skyhawk. I have about 500 hours of PIC. Anytime you need a copilot let me know.
I saw you more as a Beech 35 guy..
Ahhh La Bumba...
Lol, about that V-Tail, stay tuned
@@HerbOMatic noice..
I just liked the 969th one. Not sure what that sex move is. Maybe two people having fun while a third is asleep or left out? Keep the videos coming. They crack me up no matter what they are about. Elevators, vending machines, airplanes. It’s all hilarious!!!
Thanks Jakes!
Mooney M20F? I wont spoil it by revealing how painfully expensive a certified replacement O-360 engine is, I hope that goodwill gave you a deal. Cool project none the less.
That wrestling match! Several of the children were mildly excited. Not as much as Kiley though. She could barely contain herself.
It’s not at all a slow dance two adult males in to tight clothes
American wrestling is sooo boring. Looks like a scripted soap opera
Would love to see more videos on the plane man! Also i have never watched that much wrestling in my life. The last 3 minutes was confusion for me. Cheers from Chicago
I was confused, too! Surrende no surrende?
Man, this episode was at least 40% innuendo.
Been watching your videos on the bomb shelter since for a while now with my hubby on his channel. Glad to see you finally uploading again. The junk close ups were funny at first, but 3 in less than a minute is a little much though. Kinda cringe, but keep up the fun content. Love the parking lot brawl (wrestling). 😂
Its a cool project but i can't wait for the car
20:07 Herb-O-Matic has a way with words. You might say he is a cunning linguist.
The first time that I was ever in an airplane that was rolled it was a Mooney. the 2nd time was in a PT-17 Stearman, after that I have lost count!!! And to the the deniers that you can't roll a Mooney, as Bob Hoover said many time *_"any airplane can be rolled if you do it right."_*
My dad used to say *_"any airplane can be rolled at lease once and more that once it you do it right!!!"_*
Quite nice!
Oh god!
I can see the AOPA CZcams video now.
Ohhh nice Herb - O -Matic with my lunch.
What's for lunch?
@@HerbOMatic Tacos
There are old pilots, and there are bold pilots, but there aren't old, bold pilots.
Bob Hoover!
Hemostat you say? I think that’s a good tool for my next diy lobotomy
Who needs mags ? 😅😅😅
For the ones who want to know "what's song @ 2:21 ?" It's "dougie wood - strut funk"
15:30 You should replace the washers. They are not working anymore.
Clean washers are better in keeping it clean so you don't have to wash your engine mount earlier than necessary.
That looks like DV Airport? Right behind my house!
That strip mall is much further to the southwest.
@@jcadult101Yea, saw that part at the end. I believe it's right next to Goodyear Airport.
The elephant in the room... is hiding the magnetos in his trunk maybe?
Old automotive serpentine belts work great as a strap for engine lifting.
Four bolts? That's it? Wow
That's all holding the wing on too.
Should probably have used new bolts
Envious of your Bomb Shelter let alone your Wife (which are both way over-rated as well as your Mags) - and now I want to get high, too!
I like where this channel is heading - do believe it will really take off with this Kite. Contact!
Herb if there was only a wrench that wasn't closed on the end, so you didn't have to file your good wrench.
I cut that part out smart-ass! At 475 in-lbs and the nut being recessed I was afraid of stripping! Usually I like stripping oddly enough!
Who won the match? Did you remember to remove the paper towels? Did you call your wife back after torquing the bolts? So many questions, so little time!
The masked guy with the cake won! I did remove them, and the wife can wait!
I would have used a very safe and effective caustic acid to clean the firewall it would have saved alot of time!
This is sweet! are you an A&P yourself?
I know another way to accomplish your mission. Its a lot easier and likely much less expensive
Appreciate ya
I’m certainly no air frame or power plant mechanic but wouldn’t be a safety thing to replace the motor frame bolt holding the engine to the air frame? Knowing the times those bolts have been torqued?
I did replace them with new hardware when new hardware came in for just that reason!
👍🏼
Also that's like 11,000 to 20,000 for a remand engine..
Nice to see another video! So did you find those Engine Mounting Bolts rolling around in a Boeing 737 Max??
Could of got all that at Rock Auto
I’m pretty sure they stopped making light aircraft in the 80s. Definitely haven’t seen one in the air made post 1990
Cirrus is alive and well, Cessna Still Produces 172,182, and 206
Didn’t want to slide the lifter around the create at the skinny end ?
wow only 4 little bolts holding the engine know its designed for that but makes you think
Well if the apocalyptic zombies come after u in the shelter, now you can just fly away from them 😅
I think Herbs plan in the event that the zombies overrun the shelter is to throw the wife at them and run for the plane.
What you got in there for Adsb?
Tail Beacon, I'm a cheap ass. It seams to work great.
@@HerbOMatic those seem to work fine. Just curious. How long did it take you to get your overhauled engine? I’ve heard months wait for engine overhauls. I was an avionics tech for 35 years on light GA.
13:35
You're not really supposed to use files on tool steel
I have a feeling that you know that already
It's a $12 file set so it's not that big of a deal. Mostly used just one file! So like $2 ruined.
No worries- they will recover that wrench in the wreckage. Just sayin' 🤠
Working on an airplane with a harbor freight torque wrench. Brass balls sir. Brass balls.
It was new and I tested it. You would be surprised how often the big brands are just the same manufacturers as HF rebranded.
@@HerbOMatic no judgement. Just respect.
8:43 Gneeeeeeeeeeee eeee eee ee e ... 🥒🥜🥜
Where's my Golden Globe?
She's a screamer .
Goodyear Airport?
I miss doing actual maintenance on real aircraft.
The more I watch blancolirio and Probable Cause on YT, the more I'm convinced that getting in one of these things is a bad idea. Flying in small aircraft is just so intolerant of mistakes and humans are just so prone to make them.
I can't believe idiots fly in those things! You're not getting out alive anyway, I'm more afraid of not living than dying.
Where do you get all the money for all this shit???!!!😂
Sometimes I find change in my couch. Sometimes, I check other people's couches.
@@HerbOMaticLOL! Good answer!
What? No fuzzy dice?
Please never torque on bolt side. The bolt loose its friction value. Normally you‘ve to change the nut and there you habe to torque.
tesla swap it!
Lots of wild accusations in these comments, but I guarantee there's good tacos nearby at that wrestling match.
How does your wife put up with you? (other than locking you in the bomb shelter.)
She likes it.
I mean, now it all makes sense why your wife hasn't left you yet after all the jokes. You have money! you have a plane load of money not poor like DB Cooper with only few suitcases. 🤣🤣🤣. Jk, cool, never see this coming. Now I'm hooked even more knowing you have an Air Force one and a bunker, next is a room full of American freedom. 🤣🤣🤣 you know AR15 and so on so forth
You look like you think the word "Orange" is an onomatopoeia.
Good lord. And I thought all your OTHER videos made me nervous and cringe worrying about injuries or losing a good content provider. This is a bit more concerning. I'm hoping there are professionals with licenses and possibly badges, that have to inspect this plane before you fly it. A bad fix on a vending machine won't hurt anyone... too badly.
You are doing excellent
Great work
Now switch arms
Well, good job
You are amazing
You are very attractive and interesting
Keep going, harder, faster
This is a work out reminder, time for a reminder
That's it, work it, harder, faster
You are independent and strong
Switch arms
You are so motivated and charming
It is time to take your pulse, insert your finger. Put your finger in there a little more,
You are so lovely and elegant. You can do anything you set your mind to.
You are a go getter. You are strong and confident. Tell me again about the women who you do not like.
You are so witty and alarming insightful. How about a quick work out.
Just a quickie. You can do it.
That's it. Good. Keep it up. Feel the burn. You are amazing.
You are so strong and beautiful
You are very interesting
You have many interesting things to say
You have not worked out in seven hours
Your work out is finished. Here is some cab fare. Now going to sleep mode.
What's the business model of that clown wrestling show? I assume you didn't have to pay to gawk at it so are the restaurants/bars paying them to attract alcoholics?
I didn't pay, I think it was a promo but for what I don't know!
Yeah, boring as crap, and yet we watch. You missed your calling dude!
OK........... OK....... Stop it. First you make Bunker videos, which I never watched until yours, and now, I''m hooked on Restoring old airplanes and fake wrestling..... Just stop making compelling videos...........Please..............
