These guys are so recognizable that looking out of control is the norm, you would have to actually see the prop hit the ground before you get concerned lol.
I discovered this channel a few days ago and while it may have ruined my hopes and dreams for aircraft ownership the videos are so well put together its worth it
I've just finished watching literally all your videos since there were gaps in the catalogue, my only hope is that you'll continue to do more high quality work, whatever form it takes!
Is there any chance you could cover the Depression-era everyman's plane, the classic Peitenpol Air Camper? They were designed to be as cheap as possible in the era they were designed in and able to be made by anyone with basic knowledge of woodworking, which ends up with them being an extremely basic, wood-and-fabric, parasol-wing monoplane powered by a wide variety of engines, ranging from Ford Model A straight-4's (original specification) and Chevy Corvair Flat-6's, all the way through modern aircraft engines. I think it would make for an interesting video contrasting the much more modern and expensive aircraft often covered here.
These videos are brilliant, keep up the great work! Also, I thought I was the only one that knew the log driver song... until you quoted it at the end of the video haha I absolutely love it!!
Even better question: can you fly one? I've got over 1000 hours, tailwheel endorsement, etc, owned several planes, but that hotshoe pitts is NOT for me! I'd love to join the "flying gods" that can handle a pitts, but a man has to know his limitations.
I have a really nice Pitts s1-c. I have it insured for 39,000 and I paid 1044 for insurance this year. That's less than half of what you quoted but I have a lot of time.
please can you make a video for the MIG-29? it cost "only" $3 million, and if the pilot need a crew to start the plane or if he can do it alone it would be a good sequel to the video on the l-39 for fighter aircraft enthusiasts (and maybe why not a video for the BlackHawk copter) Thanks :D
Can you do the Tecnam P2010 Gran Lusso or P-MENTOR soon? Found these as new guys on the block for almost comparable price per hour to a 150 yet the performance closing in on an SR20 in many areas and the P-mentor being and IFR trainer for a reasonable cost
1:25 “the amount of cash you need to set on fire to keep your Pitts off the ground”
Pure gold 👌
the man is a genius
I came here to say just that!
Same… I need to get that as a bumper sticker for aviation in general 😂

Log Drivers Waltz - I love the reference and the analogy!
How to say that you grew up in Canada without saying that you grew up in Canada. ;)
@@leok888 a comment that pleases the viewer completely
Learn to step lightly, well played My film board of Canada connoisseur.
I discovered this channel a few days ago and while it may have ruined my hopes and dreams for aircraft ownership the videos are so well put together its worth it
While we're still on biplanes, could you do one on the Beechcraft Staggerwing
0:40 that exact plane flies out of the airport I work at.
Wow, and he even managed to tie in the 1990’s Canadian Heritage Log driver’s song reference? AMAZING!😂
Next you should do a Cri-Cri / Cricket! I would be eternally grateful!
Legendary Channel!

It definitely needs to come with machine guns and those old timey leather and fur helmets with goggles :o
Do one for Beechcraft Starship cuz why not, maybe cover the possibility of refurbishing one from the scrapyard xD
Please don’t stop making these videos their great
Suggestion: Douglas DC-3
Informative with brilliant narrative "Dimly lit garage....."
Video Suggestion: Bellanca Super Viking 17-30A
Not many videos out there on the Super Viking....
Awesome!

You got me at the log driver's waltz refrence
These videos are brilliant, keep up the great work! Also, I thought I was the only one that knew the log driver song... until you quoted it at the end of the video haha I absolutely love it!!
Yesss the video I've been waiting for!
instantly subbed this is GOLD how have I not seen your channel until now???
Do I want one?
Hell yes.
Can I ever afford one?
Probably not but I will dream lol.

My CFI just got his back in the air a few weeks ago after some down time. I asked him how his flight was yesterday:
"Still getting sick"
Love it!!
Intro was amazing 😂
i was wondering if you could do a c.r.714 whenever you find the time
Would love an Aerostar video.
I have a really nice Pitts s1-c. I have it insured for 39,000 and I paid 1044 for insurance this year. That's less than half of what you quoted but I have a lot of time.
Bottom end of the hull value and top end of the time scale. Averages are amazing things.
Can you make an episode about gliders. 🙏🏻

Could you do a video on a WAR aircraft kit? Would appreciate it!

Awesome video 👍🏽
Are you Canadian? I know where you got that "step lightly" saying from 😄
I would be shocked if anyone outside of Canada would know that reference. I’d be shocked if anyone in Canada under the age of 20 would know that.
@@renstein8210 you're right. The last time I remember one of those was 2008!
Oooh do tell what it’s all about?
From an intrigued Brit, 🇬🇧👋😀
PS I just assumed it was to do with rudder control🤣
@@buttonmonkey6845 😃😆🤣
Can you do cost to own the P-51??
Are you working on King Air videos? 😁
Can you do a video on the Velocity SE?
I'd love to see a cost of ownership on a Piper Seminole ... :)
Is it possible to put weels on quest kodiak like on old school bush plane

Can you do Bear Hawks?
