This was an amazing opportunity Jimmy thanks for having us come out and get the 310 shined back up!!

Bravo Jimmy, like a true pro. Glad to have you still with us, much love!

Wow!!! Beautiful shine on the 310. Great job keeping calm, going through the procedures, and bringing it and you back safely. And no scratches.

Great job Jimmy! Glad the Silver Bullet and more importantly yourself are ok!

I’m very sad & a little disappointed to see the Silver bullet go especially after all of the upgrades in all the awesome avionics and mechanical upgrades. Just makes me feel bad as a longtime supporter and fan. 😢

Started with and Save the 310 was born. That one was too far gone to save so it was donated and now this one is for sale. Need to have a 310 as that started the craziness of this channel!

Man, why would you get rid of these planes? Yea, the Elvis jet was a huge mistake, but don’t let that thing mess up everything else.

Great job, Jimmy!!! Keeping calm and collected under the circumstances, the way all pilots should be. Great to have the time and instinct to go over your emergency procedures when you noticed something wrong. A great lesson to all new and veteran pilots. Glad you made it back safely and with no damage to the plane. Sorry to see that you are getting rid of such a classic twin.

I would never have thought the Silver Bullet would go Jim!!!????@?

The fact that the owner of that sparrowhawk detailing company is an A&P I.A. and a pilot and a business owner is quite impressive. My hat goes off to him and the entire gang. This is not a lazy person.

First, let me say glad you and the 310 are safe on the ground. Next, I came here to save the 310. Then, that wasn't feasible so, you got the Silver Bullet . That was ok because you still saved a 310. It's all about the 310 for me. I hope you plan on getting another one because, without a 310, it's not going to be the same and the save the 310 merch and everything else associated with the "Save the 310" is meaningless. JMO

Wow Jimmy you had me on pins and needles on this one!!! I'm really glad that gear held up for you!!!!!

I'll say one thing, Jimmy. You never fail to surprise.

This channel helped me thru Covid. Thank you Jimmy. 😊

I can't explain it .... Americans are ingenious and hard working ... no limits. from Australia

That cute little plane never looked better, even when it was new. I bet it slips through the air faster, too - resulting in a significant savings of fuel, hopefully. Super Job, Guys ! 😊

Many years ago, I maintained a fleet of airplanes at Burbank Airport flight school at the east side of approach end of runway 15. One day an Air Force big wig flew in on his polished and buffed out DC-6 that I’ve never seen since! Even both faces of the all the props’ were to a mirror finish. The landing gear was all buffed out, down to the grease cups, tires “Armor-All’d” to a shine. I could not imagine being part of that ground crew tasked with that sort of up keep. But it was truly a sight for sore eyes indeed!

Good job keeping your emotions in check and completing necessary steps and landing safely. While I know both planes mean a lot to you, they are material things, and can be replaced. Thanks for always entertaining content.

"It disappears like a mirror." and if you fly an invisible airplane, you better be DAMNED good at seeing and avoiding other aircraft.

Wow. The final product. Exactly how I’d do it. Clean no paint. That’s a beauty Jimmy. I’m surprised it doesn’t have a counter rotating prop package. I actually thought all twins did. I was obviously dead wrong.

Wonderful job on the emergency landing. Your cool was kept and all good!

Wow Jimmy that was a scary ride. I'm glad you made it down safe and I am so bummed you have to sell the 310. I'm not a pilot but if I had the money I'd by that plane I love it🤠🤠🤠❤️🙏🙏🙏

a little wee came out just as you landed, thank someone upstairs looking out for you, great touch down

I could feel it with you when you said "Whoa! Somethin' came unstuck!". Had to do that in a different a/c and you can def feel it in the crank.

Glad your OK @JIMMY.

Jimmy! I will be in your part of the world soon! I will be at SNF, at the Metal Shaping tent, April 10-13. I would be honored if you stopped by to say hi!

It sucks to sell 2 really fine airplanes to support junk.

Great job on the 310. Love the polished look. I saw a you tube with a guy who had a Beech 18 polished and had a clear coat applied so you can touch it all you want. Also protects it from getting oxidized again. Just saying, might be worth looking into.

Good job getting the 310 down in one piece. I could see the concern in your face when you realized what was happening. Just... well done.

Thanks again Jimmy for helping me cross "get a plane and become a pilot" off my bucket list. Much appreciated!!

Hairy ending, But I glad it worked out... Damn post maintanence flights..."RESPECT your gut feelings"!!

Jimmy, so happy you landed safely!

Hey Jimmy Rich From Oregon, This was something evey pilot dreads and trains for but simulation is no comparison to real life. You executed it like a precision watch. Great job A+ and glad to see it worked out very well. Much respect. enjoy the islands after that landing!

Awesome job in a tight spot, you showed how to handle a potentially catastrophic situation. Great thing for all pilots to see and learn from.

Nice to see that 310 running again.

You are a brave man. Jimmy selling the favorite fast and efficient is a sad day...

Well done Jimmy, I was nervous as hell but you kept your cool. Nice touchdown bud

Take care of your pal jimmy he looks like a calm and collective person, make sure to take care of each other.

Wow…. A 40 plus minute video on sponsors… so fun 😂

What mix of emotions. I'm glad all turned out ok!!!

You are amazing. Been watching for years and will continue to watch your pain. This one hurt 😎🤔🤔🤔🤐

That was the first time I ever saw you have a big problem. I must say you are a pro in the way you took control of the situation.

Glad you're okay! Sad to see those planes go, but everything has it' time. I never noticed how ratty the seat cover looked on the 310 until now. Man, cover that thing!! Thanks for sharing Jimmy.

A really entertaining infomercial! 310 looks so awesome. I hope you can fetch top dollar there. Can’t wait to see what’s next.

Thank Heavens you landed safely. Good luck selling the planes.

I'm happy to see the landing went well and you or the airplane did'nt get hurt! 😁👍

I sent money in for the 310 to be saved. When the corrosion was discovered, I figured that story ended, just as if I had owned it. When Jimmy began buying the other airplanes it made for great content. I, like most people knew he would need to sell off these planes as time went on. If you watch you realize he has hangars everywhere. They aren’t cheap. Neither is fuel and insurance etc. I would like to see the Elvis jet completed. That project is really from lemons to lemonade.

After the two long commercials for Sparrow Hawk and Air Space Auctions we got some flying in. Glad it worked out without scratching that pretty 310.

They went a buff and beyond

Great finish Jeff it looks fantastic 👏 👌

Great job Jimmy.

Wow Jimmy What a beautiful transformation Most of the time putting make-up on a old girl makes her look nice Thay took it all of made her beautiful Well done Cheers Dave

And then the decal guy comes and puts his ungloved hands all over the plane. That must hurt.

Mr. Sam coulda had that plane polished by himself in half the time

Wow! SparrowHawk knocked it out of the park. Impressive.

Well done Jimmy!

That happened to me years ago on N58JW it is now scrap but I had the same thing happen to me with a Gear Actuator it stuck half way down and Popped. I did crank it down and all went well. I grew up on a 310, 150M, 172, 182, then on to a Leer, then a L1011, Then to Cargo 747. But I flew to work from SHV to DFW in a 150M N714EB my plane name was "Little 4EB" all the time. I was in front of an Air India 747 Taxing for take off and the Air India Pilot was Irate asking the tower why he put a stupid small plane in front of him? I came back and said Air India 814 this is Little Cessna 4EB I may be small but I am as big as you on this Taxiway. The laughter that caused was so funny the Tower told everyone to Shut Up and stated FYI Pilots his office is a Captain of a 747. He then gave me a Mid Field take off and told me to fly by the Tower for Traffic after take off. They were outside and waved. My radios cost more than the airplane and I was certified to be in that area. BTW Air India Apologized to me on 123.45. With all the equipment installed on my 150 I could only carry 162lbs of passenger. Beats driving. I loved my STOL Kit on that plane had it installed just for an emergency landing. Short story coming back from DFW to DTN on an IFR plan I got into a 89 knot Tail wind with a ground speed of 174 Knots. Shreveport approach who knew me and the Tail Number by Heart and my Voice asked me what I was Flying. I said Shreveport approach I forgot to tell you I had installed a Twin Turbo FEI with a Jet Pack and 200LL fuel, would you like me to step it up for Traffic. Approach said no you are past VNE but you need to go lower to avoid an incoming Space Craft. You have Barksdale worried there is a rocket Inbound then everyone laughed and he said "You set Air India Straight", Very Small World. Very True Story no BS.

Great job jimmy.

They did an outstanding job!

Jimmy, I am currently looking at the Lance Air auction. Love that he left you and your red t-shirt in the pictures. 😁👍

That there is one beautiful plane and the polish job came out fantastic.

The 310 is like a funhouse with wings! (Looks awesome)

Soooo...You're selling all your 310s while fundraising on the promise to save a 310? I thought the Silver Bullet was to replace the original 310 that was too far gone? Mixed signals you're sending here...

That was an emotional roller coaster, glad to see things turned out okay!

our Jimmy, it was righteous of you to accredit the men who worked,excellently, to buff your airplane up for the universe to enjoy...go on and be well!

Nice music for all the drama...

Thank god jimmy Amen !!!

Good job Jimbo!

Good job!

I will be so sorry to see the 310 bullet 😮go but understand..... and the little white home built almost jet.... Jimmy is always exciting....

Good job.

Pucker level 10....😳

First, I thought, 'You're gonna need a SPF 100 Suntan Lotion to fly the BE-U-T-FULLY polished 310! Then the gear issue popped up. I feel the pain!! Same thing happened to me in a 1949 Globe Swift... and turning the Emergency Gear handle was.... no resistance to HEAVY RESISTANCE... and still no Green Gear lights! Eventually, I got the Green light and landed safely.... and the old comment for those that fly Retracs... 'Those that HAVE... and those that WILL" have a gear issue at some time. Glad you AND the plane are good!!

He is an entrepreneur and has money. He is using this channel to support his hobbies. He is eccentric and goofy and it entertains people. It is what it is. If you send money that’s a personal choice. He has supported folks in need in the past so has done some good.

"I gotta turn the mags on"... classic.

I’m a retired aerospace engineer. I was deeply involved with the transport of the very large components of the Saturn V rocket. At that time the only air transport was, first the pregnant guppy (modified C-97) followed by a somewhat larger super pregnant guppy. When the Antonov AN-225 I was introduced my imagination went wild with the possibilities such a transport vehicle promised. Surely on a global scale, this aircraft should and could become an instrument for global peace. Couldn’t the United Nations get behind funding its survival.

I've seen a couple of gear up landings or weak nose gear. Not fun, but everyone lived. Glad you made it.

Wait I thought the silver bullet was a replacement for the Save the 310 veterans thing? You were going to use it to teach vets to fly or something? Thats what you said during your crowdfunding campaign!

The flying glitter ball 👍

Sun off that shine be starting some fires 🔥🔥

Jimmy is like a kid in the candy shop when looking at the 310! 😂

13:20 groove belt, nice

Great video. But I think reupholstered interior would really have finished a great project off.

Thank you, that was a halfway decent Salute, Jimmy. You don't know how many times I see it done so wrong.

I was under the impression like so many others the 310 was to be used for training and also to help with transportation for vets that needed to get to appointments and other things. Man as an AF Vet myself I am ashamed of what you are doing with the 310. Be an honorable man and do what’s right.

Sweet unit

The shine on the 310 has got to be worth another 5 kts.

Whew on the gear! LOL! When I moved I tried to sell several small block 350 core engines. People would call said they wanted them but actually just wanted to stand around and tell me all about their projects and how much they knew. Wound up just scrapping them.

That shine helped save some lives literally

I think the 310EB now stand for Extra Bright!!!

Dam Jimmy, i am 71+ what are you doing to us :) CHIT! No fingernails left and i am now out of WHISKEY! ❤💯🙏 From SE Texas > Bear

1000ft overflight? Jimmy come on! Surely a low level circuit or missed approach just to give the ground guys some eyes. I do believe Jimmy's World has passed that point....but the journey was fun

A smile from me to You from Norway Do not put fingerprints on the plane Thank you for sharing Regards Norway

What no 310 on Jimmys World thats not right. Glad you made a safe landing.

The Stache!!! Reminds me of Goose in Top Gun!!

Nice save Jimmy,

Glad to see you got three rings of rubber on the runway and the right side up

good one

Noooo not the 310!!!! My favorite twin. It’s like flying a classic 57 Chevy Belair!
