I flew a C185 overseas for several years. All mod-ed up with many of the same mods. Loved that airplane. RPC-660. Enjoyed the video, thanx for sharing.

My uncle had his C180 on his farm in S.C. ( no bush wheels ) My dad flew his C172 out of Peachtree near Atlanta , and loved landing on the grass strip at the farm . The 180 was the first taildragger I ever flew in. Those two Cessna's were the best of both worlds to me. Got to fly the C172 but never the 180. Wished I had learned taildraggers. Kevin, your 180 is awesome !

How did Juan know four years ago that this was the video I wanted to watch today? Amazing. Great aircraft. Thanks to you both.

Beautiful plane! My first commercial job was on a ‘53 180J model, came with a turn and slip along with a venturi to drive the gyros. Love the planes👍

How in the world do you get any thumbs down on this piece of history along with a priceless education. Very good documentation.

Excellent walk around, thanks shows what you can do if you want to . Well done

Boards Of Canada - Heard From Telegraph Lines. BOC and flying go together really well. Good to see my favorite musicians in the aviation community.

Kevin Quinn is one cool guy. And excellent back country pilot

Stunning airplane !!! Another extremely well done video sir!!

What a great looking aircraft! Looks like a lot of fun to fly, etc. ;)

She's beautiful. Thank you.

Loved the slo-mo at the end.

A labor of love for sure. It came out beautiful.

Good photography and editing

Great video!

The first ever plane video I watched was one of yours with Kevin and after finding paramotors I had a random memory of watching those beach bush plane vids and that profile of kevins other other plane you shot. I couldn't find it however after searching a few times over the last few years. When I first watched it I heard him saying 150K and just thought my dream of having one is just a pipe dream. Then after moving from Tucker Gotts vids to Trent Palmers I now realize I can buy a kitfox. Just not the motor and AV. Good thing I'm a toolmaker. I'll just get one that needs a rebuild and machine it myself. I searched and searched for that video of Kevin you shot then I saw him in one of Trents vids and was able to find it based on his name and rewatch it all these years later. I'm not rich but I do have a lifetime of old cars and bikes that is worth enough to get the kit so someday I'll finish a couple and place my order.

That is one nice, well thought out flying machine. I'd be very proud to own and fly that baby.

Super nice Plane Kevin!

Lots of time and $$$ invested .....................Id be proud of that plane too

Pretty nice Kevin 👍🏼

wow i love it this c180 is awesome, the slow-motion is pretty cool nice shot👍

Fantastic video!

A very beautiful aircraft. Truly what flying is about.

Bad ass. I never thought I’d want a Cessna but the taildragger variants are sweet.

Nice look-over Juan. Super plane.

Beautiful plane!

THAT is a beautiful airplane!!!

Gorgeous

This and a CarbonCub are my dream airplanes. I shure would love to fly either one at some point.

Very Nice.

Juan,have you ever flown at Warren ID? A family friend owns property and a "mine" there,I used the " cause the mine hasn't produced even a morsel as yet,lol,also will you be in auburn for the airfest in 2018 ? I can't make Grass Valley this year,no transport for my fat behind and power wheel chair,lol.would be cool to meet you.

Awesome 👍😊

That thing is beautiful

Very nice job, Juan. Question: It appears to be impossible for that owner to not say what a wonderful man he is….am I wrong?

She's a beauty.

Boy would I love to see that at Oshkosh

Lovely plane

Kevin, In July I bought a 180 with Texas Skyway O-550. Will be adding Sportsman STC next week. Two questions if you don't mind: 1. In addition to the Sportsman, would you add VGs? 'Not sure if you flew it with the Sportsman and before you added VGs so you could see an improvement with the VGs 2. The Sportsman STC comes with gap seals. In the video you said that you didn't use them. If the Sportsman comes with gap seals, shouldn't I be including the gap seals? Thank you! Always enjoy watching your Flying Cowboy videos!

Legend

Nice! A lot

The Cessna 180 model was used for a very famous record. Jerrie Mock flew a 180 around the world to be first woman to do so solo.

What size donuts you got there Kevin?

What's your average cruise speed with all the STOL add ons?

Nice plane! What is the cruise speed?

I need a tail wheel endorsement. Cory said your the best there is. Let’s get together and make it happen.

Want to see a flight in it!

What kind of oil do you use in this airplane? Thanks!!!

Have you ever flown that 180 in Alaska?

How is the GoPro mount attached?

First plane I've ever riden WD my father flying and my brother the military C-180, the U-17. With six cylinder.

An old buddy of mine had a two-digit serial number 1953 C-180 and he was an A&P/IA, so it had every imaginable mod. Have you ever heard of a Nicson cam?

8:45 is bad ass

Looking for information on the rear seat you put in your 180? Model, STC ect? I believe you said it was an Atlee Dodge but I can't seem to find one that looks like the one in the video. Thanks.

I can imagine glass cockpit (say, Garmin 3000), LED lights, electronically injected turbo charged engine, oxygen system... Maybe all this is not needed on this 180, but don't say this plane's got all I can imagine.

NICE AIRPLANE LOTS OF MONEY INVESTED.........BUT STILL JUST AN PLANE...................BUT A VERY NICE ONE.....TKS............RON

Wow so nice! Throw in a g500, GTN 650, GFC 500, set of comfy leather seats and she would be way better than a new aircraft!

SWWEEET 'Wagon! Mine is still waiting for my lazy ass to do the annual. Maybe 100LL will come down this year so I can fly it more. Mogas STC is great, but finding pure gas is difficult.

Kevin now you have to get the DHC-2 and mod her out.

The landing gear legs were $15,000... Wow... They only save about 20-35 pounds.

10k for paint; I think its more like 25k now?!?

Cross wind landing gear?

8:43 i rthought the engine died for a sec

Thats a lot of money to invest and still have a 180 and not a 185.

my ame has an MT prop on his 185...loves it just had to send it back to Germany though I think he said the rebuild/10 yr inspection.

90 gallons?? Wtf? No way he ever fills it all up to fly it

Very Nice, but I have to I know a friend who spent $750K completely refurbishing a 180 to better than new.....stupid but most expensive

All about me..me..me..no flying.

Gorgeous
