    I never knew vending machine repair skills translated so well to airplane mechanic. Very impressive! This whole time I've been waiting for you to roll it out of the hanger, start it up and say that the next step is to get a pilot's license. Cut to scene of you putting change into vending machine and dispensing said license. 😂

    I know you ran a vending machine business and I know those things are fairly complex and need a lot of maintenance. So I already expected you’re pretty good with your hands - maybe Karley can vouch for that…?

    Nice work. I'm surprised that the FAA didn't get more mentions (Through gritted teeth, with a snarl and a spit whenever their acronym passes your lips). From what I've heard, they like to make owner/pilot/aero mechanic folk jump through pointless burning hoops when recommissioning an old plane like this. My assumption is that they create intrusive legislation purely to validate charging money to inspect and enforce it. I'm all for air safety but the FAA's and CAA's of this world just seem to meddle with pointless details, while not really doing anything to curb the bigger problems in aviation (Like Boeing's quality control apparently).

    Nope, I was wrong, but not by much.
    My father bought a 67 Citabria floatplane. We restored it, and I learned to fly before I learned to drive.
    The nearly immediate gear-up threw me, but you had trust that things would go well. And they did.
    How the hell did you mount a camera to the wing so it wouldn't come off?
    I'm going to have to go back and see the whole story behind this.
    I don't fly anymore, it's too expensive and I already have too many expensive hobbies.
    Kudos and congratulations.

    • @HerbOMatic

      That's a bummer, you could fly with a pilot and you could do all the phases of flight with them shadowing you on the controls. They would be the official Pilot in Command but you would be legal. If you took an impromptu snooze, they could take-over.

    Aviation stuff you have the times it by 10 if you think something's going to be $50 is going to be more like $500 have you saw that video of the guy in Congress holding a bag of Aviation washers and they cost $90,000

    • @HerbOMatic
      @HerbOMatic  Před měsícem +7

      I saw that, the price of that bag in congress is called money laundering. They do it with defense contracts, war on homeless, studies, etc etc. Like when it costs 3 million to build a bathroom. Some of that 90k finds its way into pockets of friends for sure! The mission is to find clever ways to transfer wealth from the schmucks to the connected.
