Love the Comments. That’s a common insight for confidence in fuel quantity. Most pilots have never experienced it
And such experience was new to me just a few months ago. Very uncomfortable feeling but happy to have it solved now :) Thanks to you!
@@Schmiiindy I have those senders in my Saratoga. They are great!
✔️
We are a Cessna Family!!
Fully modernized with it’s vintage look, AND you kept the cool glovebox!! 😎 Great job!
You nailed the panel upgrade!!! It is beautiful and functional. Looks to the future without forgetting it’s past. The panel is ABSOLUTELY PERFECT 🤩 The repurposing of the ashtrays was genius. I am looking forward to more Chasin’ Winds. Bravo Zulu!
Mojo is all grown up now, it only took her 65 years😁Fantastic choice of panel, it still looks mainly old school but will be so much safer now👍We need a night flight now to see your new lights😉
That was fast! I thought it was gonna take 6 weeks, and I was working hard at patiently waiting. Looks great.
You can just about feel that old plane smugly grinning from ear to ear! That was a well-thought-out hybrid panel.
I am seriously impressed, as an A&P and pilot myself these guys did a real nice job on an airplane that obviously deserves it. Nicely done.
Man, I want one of those GI275 engine monitors SOOOOO badly now!
Awesome setup Mindy - the instrument cluster suits the old girl perfectly, and the headset jack ashtrays are next level!
I love the new panel. You really did a great job combing new technology while keeping the heritage of the airplane intact. I'm looking forward to more in-depth videos of your new gear.
If the current technology existed back in the day this is the way a panel would have looked, oohh yeah Mindy, great taste in panel rejuvenation
You did everything right, it looks AWSOME
Beautiful. You did a great job selecting the right equipment and placing it in the right spot. Many years of wonderful flying to you both.
Thank you!
Amazing transformation, comfort and safety
Wow, that looks awesome!!!!
Wow! I love it! The new panel is perfect for the plane. Good job!
Jacks in your ashtrays?Brilliant Mindy!!!
great video, and well done on sticking to the classic look... The GI275, GTN650, and the GFC - can't get much better than that. Congrats!!
Definitely something to be grateful for! Awesome updates! Loved the rear seat jacks!
She looks sweet. Retro mod. One classy Cessna. Enjoyed the video
Non-pilot here but I loved to see the before and after upgrades. This video was well done shots, music, and editing.
We have a ‘59 182B and this is the exact setup I have been imagining for our plane. What a clean and functional execution. Well done.
Thank you! Hope you get to do yours soon 😊 It feels so good having reliable equipment in these older planes.
This is a great transformation !! Well done keeping that vintage feel. Love it.
Very inspiring video, thanks Schmiindy for sharing! It resonates very well as I just went through a similar upgrade in my 1971 Robin DR253: 2* AV-30C for attitude indicator and directional gyro, EDM930 primary engine monitor, and a FLARM collision warning device.I kept the original factory autopilot, though - a 1960's design but it still works, believe it or not! Game changer for me was the engine monitor. I like the fact that you went for "round glass" AI and DG, rather than a full glass cockpit such as a G1000 or similar. The spirit of your beautiful oldtimer is well maintained. Wish you fun with your Cessna! Blue skies :)
Thank you so much! Hey, any AP is better than none!!! Very cool. And yes. Engine monitors are sooooo helpful.
I just love the plane, and I definitely like the improvements the two of you have put into it. It's just too bad you couldn't have enlarged the cabin area without taking away from the nostalgia look of the plane. Please keep up the good work as I definitely enjoy your vlogs
LOVE the panel! I love how uncluttered it is, yet still has all of the latest in avionics.
Really Nice job with the panel! Once you get used to the Tech, there is no turning back. Really useful in long cross country. Garmin did a great job with those instruments so that the plane keeps its character.
Agreed. Awesome, I can’t wait to learn it better!!
Wow, what an improvement and great technology. Perfect job Mindy, you outdid yourself.
So happy for you guy's. I know it's been a long time coming and I can tell how excited you are by the tone of your voice. Wishing you all the best of enjoyable flying in mojo.
So cool! Congrats!
Thank you for making these videos... My Father purchased a 1958 Cessna 172 for me to learn to fly in back in 1986. I have been flying ever since. We never could have dreamed back then what could be done today with a classic Cessna. These videos really have brought back some great memories for us, thanks again!
FUNTASTIC guys ! Use it in good health
Very nice, great choices! Everything you need without going over the top.
Beautiful panel
Nice job on the panel, but the headphone jacks in the ash tray is the cherry on top.
Haha. Im glad someone else appreciates this
Beautiful panel and now it’s better than the New 2022 182 Skylane and fly some serious IFR cross country flights and for that congratulations on your achievements to the both of you to enjoy MOJO 😀
Been flying a long time and seen a lot of panel upgrades, but you hit it out of the park with this. Keeping the vintage look with all the stuff is just brilliant! Headphone jacks in ashtray - pure genius! Only thing I would add is a proper CO2 detector.
Thank you so much!!!! Do the stick on ones not work very well? That’s what I have now.
Does the stick on go beep beep ✅
That is a beautiful upgrade. New instruments, but in the vintage style! Perfection!
That looks so much like my '56 172 . Good job of keeping it old but new again. Thanks for the memories.
That is a beautiful panel!!! This is what every old plane should be upgraded to!
Man I am digging the panel, awesome work!
Loved seeing you guys SO excited! I'm excited for you! The new panel is awesome 🤩
Absolutely love your new panel. The selection of an EIS gauge to monitor engine temps was wise. Happy you have Auto Pilot as well. I bet she doesn’t fly like a Cessna from the 50’s anymore.
It’s absolutely awesome to see the modern tools in a classic form factor 🤯
This is so awesome. Exactly what I want to do with my old nonstandard panel 210. Keep the retro look and have all the modern conveniences and reliability. The engine monitor is a huge deal and combining all those instruments into the little close at hand display, well it’s just impressive to say the least.
I’m sure you had help with the expense from the vendor partners but would love a breakdown of approximate costs if you ever do a follow up video.
Thanks for the awesome content. (Btw no relation to Gardner Lowe)
Awesome! Mindy is pumped!!!
You GO GIRL!!! Impressive. Did my 74 150L pretty much the same way.
i do not think i have ever seen such a unique design solutions. bravo
I'm super late for this, but as a new subscriber who is considering a panel upgrade... my jaw DROPPED when I saw the ashtray secret! This is awesome!! I need to find an avionics upgrade like this that won't break the bank!
So awesome!
Very nice love the new Equipment, i Love your beautiful 182
Came out nice!
Your new Avionics panel, is great for flight vlogs! Your camera angles show all instruments clearly. You'll make a great flight instructor with excellent radio skills! What a great job done ✅ Love the panoramas of Florida! Thanks 🙏
I have the 275 EIS system in a Baron….combined with the CiES senders, yeah, fuel isn’t a worry….except paying for it!
Beautiful set up! Yaaaay!
Great video and fantastic restoration of the old panel. perfect blend of the old look along with today's technology. love the glove box
Awesome and thoughtfully outfitted. I might’ve added shoulder harnesses….
I was fortunate to fly a 1958 182 all over the country. Helluva airplane!! Your recent additions are really nice!!!!
On my near term list!! Awesome. Thank you.
Really great upgrades. Congrats!
SWEET.......
I completely agree about the EIS! The original Cessna gauges were so inadequate. I always planned extra fuel stops because of that.
So happy for you two! It looks great and is the perfect balance of vintage and new.
Beautiful aircraft, and I agree, the new gauge resembling the old ones looks very right in the panel. Thanks for sharing.
Well done. Great combination of old and new.
Love it, sweet airplane..
Awesome!
Awesome upgrade Mindy! They do top notch work ! I have used them for years even when they were in Griffin. I hope you kept your old panel it would make a great set backdrop with some instrument cutouts in the holes!. Sweet ride its a classic for sure! Cheers!
Oh good to hear! Yes they are so great. I did keep my old one!
Awesome upgrade! I have had my Dakota back from a similar panel upgrade a couple months ago and it has been a game changer. That AP coupled to the 650 is amazing. Shooting Lpv and ground based approaches with that setup is almost cheating.
Ahhh so cool! Good to hear!! I’m excited to learn it.
What a nice looking panel. You made some great selections for your upgrade and I can imagine it was well worth the downtime you experienced.
So cool
So jealous
Love Kevin's reactions! Stoked for you guys. Hope to see you soon!
I love to fly the old school Straight tail 182 because it’s sets up higher ground clearance and faster
Fabulous! 😎😎😎
Great balance between the vintage look/feel and modernization. Well done. I have the CIES senders in my '69 Mooney and love them. They talk to a JPI primary engine monitor. The original factory were horrible, both senders and gages.
Haha correct, I couldn’t agree more. Glad to hear you like and trust the CIES senders. After only 2 flights with them, they are spot on
What is funny is that from where you are, it would take the same amount of time to get to Naples as it would for me driving. Love the new panel.
Great design as well as walk thru. It's great you saved the glove box! 😊
I just love those Rear Ashtrays! Great idea......
Y’all are like school kids at Christmastime in that new cockpit! Love the new layout, guys!
I'm jealous!
Looks awesome, congratulations!
Nice beautiful A/C. Helping me decide on upgrades to my 1969 182. One thought: Please install shoulder harnesses. A high percentage of fatalities are because of pilots and passengers hitting the panel in an otherwise survivable accident. Think about it. Good luck. 12:05. 12:12
In some ways this seems even more impressive than a full glass cockpit, given that you've acquired most all of the capability in such an unassuming package.
Ah. Thank you for that, that was exactly my hope.
Love the rear headset jacks in the ashtrays. Such a good touch. Wonder how long it’ll take passengers to find them if you don’t tell 😆
Always a good thing when great people get good things! Awesome 👌
Soooo sick! I had my mouse set at the before and kept replaying it over and over checking out the differences. And the after is beyond cool.
I'm just a "simmer", and the 182 is my goto girl. Headset access through a vintage ashtray FTW!
But watching both you up there having sooo much fun was a wonderful event to have witnessed!
Very cool! I love the look of a vintage plane with modern avionics!
Ash tray was a home run. Loved it.
LOVE IT, GREAT UPGRADE, LET'S GO FLYING, SEE YOU WHEN...
That's a beautiful set-up. It will take you along many happy trails.
Frekin Sick! Very nice to see you're aircraft being kept up with the times.!
Wow, that's the nicest old Cessna that I've ever seen! I'm jealous. Also, your flight brought back memories of flying into and out of Orlando Apopka Airport back in the early to mid 1980's, when you had to avoid the potholes in the runway. Certainly, a much nicer airport these days. Best of luck in your adventures!
I have the exact same ashtrays in the backseat of my '56 180 ... including headset jacks within!! Very cool. Stevie referred me over to your vids. Great job!
You had me at… ashtray jacks…. :-). Love it….. Thanks for sharing and providing great ideas of how to save by not filling the panel with massive screens and keeping it as original yet very functional. Hope you guys get to fly Mojo OFTEN and to exciting places and of course… share it with us………
Looks great!
Such a beautiful plane. I love it. There is one for sale on trade a plane that is fitted with all the stol mods and big tires. I thought it was yours at first.
Not gonna lie the headset jacks in the ashtrays are very cool! 😅
Super cool panel and I just love your plane the year I was born!!!
CIES fuel senders are awesome. I also have 3 GI-275's in. I had a similar location for the GI-275 EIS, but decided to relocate it to the upper left (left of the analog air speed indicator) as I preferred to have it in a more visible location. I find that I almost never check it when its in the lower right position. But now its more visible in the scan, and with the prices of engine overhauls these days, perhaps a better choice to look at it more often.
Yes! Great choices, great results! Modern conveniences with vintage character. When will you plan a California aviation adventure?
Oooh boy I need a lot of time off to make that happen 😂
@@Schmiiindy That's true, it would take a while to get here. How about this? You two fly out commercial, I'll pick you up and you can use my c206 and have an adventure. I'll show you the avionics and hand you the keys. Ever been to the Reno air races? Plan for 2023 or 2024! I am strategically positioned so almost everything is around an hour away in the 206. Reno, Tahoe, Monterey, Yosemite (aerial tour, you can't land there), Napa (only 10 minutes!), Columbia, an over-nighter or weekend trip to McMinnville to see the Spruce Goose... Anyway, think about it.
Great panel! Absolutely love the 275's!
Congratulations guys, the plane looks amazing.... if you guys are ever back in the area of Apopka let me know please, would have love to meet you both. I live in south Orlando. Safe flights and enjoy that plane
