Jimmy, nothing better than flying with your son! He's your spittin' image of you! These are times he will cherish forever. Your a Great dad!

What I love most about this, is the fact that you are having this adventure with your boys! Jimmy’s world is the Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory of Aviation!

You and your kid saying "clear prop", the best part of the vid. Legacy moments.

I love seeing you work and fly with your son. He’s going to be one heck of a pilot.

Gosh this brings back great memories for me. My dad and I was the young eyes to spot traffic. Cherish these times you two. My dad and I still recount stories and can talk the current technologies that have emerged.

That looked like a pretty sporty approach. The Lance is definitely a beautiful aircraft for sure and slick.

Enjoy all the time with your kids cause time flies and it doesn't come back!! Love it!!!

Hey Jimmy, love your videos. Awesome you are able to do this with your Son. My wife is still too nervous to take the family. 😉Two way radio communication is all that is required to enter class C airspace. When ATC says your tail number back, you are cleared unless they ATC says standby or otherwise indicates don't enter the airspace.

As a Dad, the "clear prop" @ 12:35 is AWESOME. Well done, Jimmy.

Jimmy you and your wife are raising your children the way God intended you both will be blessed for it. Silas happy birthday young man.

Never heard “money to noise converter” before lol that got me.

Cowl screws powered by Bauer and Hobo Freight Tools. "What could go wrong?" Cheap tools rule. Thanks for all you do for the aviation community in your world and thanks for helping out my friends down in SW Fl and all across our great state as we recover from hurricane Ian.

Sometimes blu tac on a long screwdriver will reach lost acrews!

You do know the silver bullet is overhearing all of the love that you are giving Cameron! Blue skies !!!

I’m glad to see a man been a man without getting to serious about that’s what life is all about and thats what your kids will remember about you our dad was a great goofball with a heart of gold👍🏼

Love what you are doing. Hope you get that television show. I would watch. Also love the Wings of Compassion to help Veterans and their families, that is fantastic. You should race the 310. Happy birthday to your son. Mine is next week, too. 🥳🥳🥳🥳

I enjoyed the video. Father-Son time together is precious.

Fuel burn - regapped plugs - proper gap, better efficiency. :) Maybe?

Seeing you and Silas shoulder to shoulder is Mini Me stuff. Looks, mannerisms etc. I will pray for Silas!!!

I liked watching you working through the landing process! Gotta be well coordinated to fly busy airspace!

You are a very talented metal worker and I look forward to each and every one of your videos. I laugh at your humour and awkwardness - it’s a great combination in my opinion. You have taught me lots, and I am extremely great full. Thank you and keep ‘em coming.

I learnt to fly a low wing DA20 , not a rocket but found it very stable to fly and easy to control. It's no wonder the Canadian air force use them for training.

Man, you should be glad that your boy loves to his spend time with his dad. Congrats.

Another great video Jimmy. You and Silas make a great team. I’m glad you are able to share your experiences together. He’s going to make a great pilot.

Silas, you are living my life long dream. Keep on flying. Oh yeah. I am only 66 years old and an Air Force veteran. Looking forward to your progress.

love seeing father and son videos. hope to see the jet soon

“Getting the keys out of your pocket before you sit down”. Been there, forgot that, many times.

Great video Jimmy glad your teaching you son to fly as you go. I enjoy your videos. Thanks for posting

Great video. I love the complicity you have with Silas. Congratulations.

Jimmy Silas is a carbon copy of you. You can never deny that one!! Lol. Love how you guys do so much together!!

Great episode Jimmy. So much to process when flying in traffic.

Petition for Jimmy to get a custom Jimmy’s World wrap on Cameron.

im sure you already know but those engines pick up amazing numbers with even a powerflow header an exhaust system, let alone giving it more fuel an timing advancing, this plane will go ALOT faster, burn more fuel, make you smile even harder.

Glad you figured out the gear door gremlin. The sun shield above your head is also sliding off the frame. No biggy but it's not something that you would want falling down on you during a landing. Any distraction is not good. A little dab of CA glue will hold it in place.Silas is a lucky guy getting all of that free instruction!! Did you know that Silas is old enough to fly a glider right now? He certainly has earned it though with the fine job of filming your show. The sideways crabbing is definitely drag from the wing cam.

Invaluable lesson learned, I only use plastic bags, and place them on a table, stool or chair, no tools or hardware rests on plane when working. I dropped a retention nut from a master relay when I had the carpet out of a Bonanza and it went down into the fuselage by the rudder pedals. Took me 3 days of 3-4 hours of work to take out more interior and find it. Lesson learned. Absolutely love your content Jimmy!

After watching enough of these videos of yours with your Lance-Air It sounds like it's a Porsche with wings instead of wheels.☺️

All ya need is a couple 50 caliber machine guns on that thing! 😂😂

Okay, Cameron is my favorite. As well as the 310!!!! Have an awesome day Jimmy!

What a fine young Man. Credit to you Jimmy and Family .👌

You know the guy who built this beauty is watching your videos beaming with pride and remorse.

Another great video. Great to get Silas to help and Future Happy Birthday.

Another T-shirt. "KICK THE TIRE, LIGHT THE FIRE."

That’s about how much the average pickup truck uses for a trip. Wow. That’s an impressive little plane.

Use a wite grabber....has thin wire fingers inside a small spiral steel rod. Excellent for non magnetic items.

Awesome Jimmy, I dare say the slight sideslip you noted during the flight was most likely due to the drag created by the camera mounted on the wingtip. Love your videos and what you stand for🤟

I think making Cameron a speed king is interesting. Your idea of taping the gaps was done in unlimited racing in the 1940s and 1950s. Many years ago I read the autobiography of Tony LeVier who was a test pilot (chief pilot I think) for Lockheed during that period. He went into detail about taping seals and joints. I see that you’re planning engine work. Actually I think your limiting factor is the prop. Unless it’s pitched for max rpm at top speed you’re losing efficiency. You need either a fixed pitch tuned that way or you need some type of variable pitch or constant speed prop. You may also want to look at engine cooling drag. You may want to contact the participants of the Reno Air Races. Their “sport plane” builders have already solved the issues that you’re having. I’ve been watching your vids since your first Cherokee 6 vids. I look forward to them. Best of luck to you.

Great speed run sop thanks Jimmy for a fun video

You guys are so awesome!!

Thanks for including your communications with ATC

“Quick and easy… like your mom.” My wife was laughing out loud, as was I 😂😂😂

Love the radio comm, thx for sharing

8000 hours is like 4 years in full time job. Byron was very committed to the cause of building a fine aircraft.

I require a tee shirt that says something like, "Adding more BTU's to the money to noise converter."

Love what u do getting kids involved

jimmy just casually roasted silas with that mom joke bahahaha

Come to the Flying M Ranch (7TA7) Fly-in in Reklaw Texas. October 21-23 2022. You will never forget it

Jimmy it gets a little dicey there clearing the obstacle before 10R there at KHWO isn't it...then the wind loves to play with you before touch down. You'd think that 3255ft would be plenty of runway, but it comes fast. Good to see you at the home airport. I wish I could have been there to shake your hand and touch Cameron myself. Great video sir, and keep them coming.

Thanks for another great video ...i got my fix ...also ..im diggin the stash man . Love it

Time to race the 310. Great video Jimmy

I saw you guys threw those raspberry fig bars from Target in the plane for the trip! I have a 17 month old daughter and she absolutely LOVES those things, the blueberry as well!! Great video boys!

Damn Cameron is fast! 200 knots is pretty good for a single engine. Glad to see you brought Junior with you. Great memories. 👍

Thank-you for your content.

Jimmy like always never a let down watching one of your Videos 👍

Keep these videos coming Jimmy. Those Lancair's are fast machines.

We used a tape with adhesive on one side that was applied to a 2" wide strip 0.008" thick annealed aluminum... We called it 600 mph tape, and it was used for covering areas that had aerodynamic sealant (PS 870, 1436, etc.) put into some expansion gaps. This was done to enable the aircraft to fly - without allowing the sealant to streak across the plane during it's revenue generating flight... It worked quite well !!! Use a flat piece of flexible plastic to apply the tape onto the plane, (like the body guys use - to apply Bondo)... Some things to know, removing the wax with a rag soaked with alcohol helps the tape to bond to the plane, and using naptha on a rag can help to remove the unwanted adhesive on the plane, that was left behind, from the tape... It might remove paint where it's not bonded very well... Have fun and fly safe!!!

One of my hacks, I've used is to get a metal coat hanger, or wooden dowel, or stick. Put s drop of gel type super glue on the end, then reach down to a dropped stainless screw, bolt, or what ever, hold it to the said. Majic, it come right out.

Jimmy thank you for showing us the video of what the storm did.

Please teach Cylis to always be scanning for traffic. So good you have him turning wrenches!!

Hi Use air pressure to get the part out

Hope you are have a blessed day today jimmy

Jimmy, the airframe manufacturer offers a course and when completed, you can do the condition inspection. You probably know that and it's true for every kit plane (that's still in business).

Always great videos!

Just got my Clear Prop shirt! Love it

Wonderful episode Jimmy. Keep up the good work all while having fun. Life can’t get better then this. I would like to see Cameron race a mid to late 70’s Cessna T210 with the upgraded intercooler and wastegates. Most of them do now and make about 310-320hp. They’ve been known to do 200kts in cruise but burn allot more fuel lol. Another fun one while keeping it experimental homebuilt would be the “questair Venture” max speed was rated at 265kts+ and cruise was 240kts 😱

Always look forward to your videos.

Great videos man, keep it up, we Love watching you.. Your 1980's Police mustache is awesome!

I just love the father/son "Clear Prop". Memories for a lifetime.

Cameron vs The Mig! Keep up the great videos!!

Happy Birthday Silas!

Hello from Minnesota!! Great episode!! Hard to beat flying with the kid!!

Awesome stuff jimmy ... very big thumbs up

I could be wrong, but changing to Dzus fasteners would be high on my Priority List on any airplane cowling.

Seus vídeos são ótimos. Parabéns!

Nice video guys! I would love to see Cameron vs a 915is vl3 !

I learned to fly at North Perry in 1961 No tower little traffic and just a large wagon wheel of runways there Great memories as a kid

Very impressed with S.

Very cool, Jimmy! It makes sense that, if the camera can make the plane 5 knots slower, closing up all those gaps and making the plane slicker with the tape could also add 3-5 knots. P.S. from one Libra to another, Happy pre-birthday, Silas!

Great video! I always enjoy those where you feature the Lancair and seeing you encourage your son in getting involved with aviation. One thing I'd like to point out is that taping string on the front of the canopy isn't going to help. The disturbance from the prop will give you a false indication. The string trick only works on gliders or pushers.

Back in the 1980s I had just failed my first instrument rating check ride and while flying back to the airport we suffered a hole in the right side windshield. (Piper Seneca). On the ground no indication could be found as to what caused the hole. The windshield was patched and the next pilot to fly found the cause. The right propeller had a perfect impression of a screw in the leading edge. At the time I was doing my test at a nearby VOR there was a Tobago also using that VOR above me. Apparently the screw fell from the Tobago, fell into my prop and was then flung through the windshield.

US Navy Aviation Maintenance had what we called “Positive Tool Control”…My Pal the shop supervisor always said if we don’t find that tool we are gonna be here until 2500… And ByGod that’s late!!!

Great video, plug gap can also have a influence on your fuel burn.

I knew Silas would spot the runway first...haaaaa. Nice video thanks from Roma 👍✌️🇬🇧

The lancair is a slick as snot little plane covering those gaps helps tremendously the one i flew in had tape as well

Race the 310, you owe it to her, the morphed frankinplane! It's alive!!!

I would hope you are doing better after the storm ⛈. Glad to see your go faster airplane!

Bring on the Silver Bullet!!!

Jimmy, you did the plug gap that's where your fuel burn got better. THOMO.

I LOVE those Lancairs!

Silas is becoming quite the aviator! Cool stuff! FWIW, normally aspirated engines in GA airplanes reach 75% power at full throttle at ~7500 density altitude, with HP dropping off above that...
