I love the way that Guy gets so involved in these tasks. And the way he takes to it so well and so humbly. He's a great inspiration.

It's crazy to me that a dude that has ridden around the Isle of Man fully pinned is tentative when doing some work on a Lanc. Just goes to show how much respect Guy has for the machine, the process and the people that now restore them and built them way back when. Great vid appreciate it muchly Cheers.

I love Guys little "ok, ok"s, its exactly like how a mechanic would handle extremely bad news that his project is going to be THAT much harder and harder with each new step lol

Two engineers who clearly have a great deal of mutual respect. John Romain is always depicted on TV as an experienced vintage warbirds pilot, but first and foremost he clearly remains a skilled practical engineer. Even my wife remarked how quietly spoken and informative he was and found this video interesting.

Guy has the hands and fingernails of a working man, no question about that.

How can you not love Guy Martin!!! Watching his total focus and commitment to whatever the task and the person talking, shows just what a humble and respectful person he is. Great work!

110% in everything he does, a thirst for knowledge and a driving urge to get his hands dirty. gotta love our Guy from Grimsby, his saga has gained another verse

Respect to the editor for not dubbing music in while Guy concentrates in silence.

John has the kind of quiet authority that comes from knowing exactly what he is doing. Lovely to see Guy showing him and the Lancaster such reverence and respect.

Astonishing to see these old techniques brought to life. Have loved following the vlog on this restoration.

I do greatly appreciate Guy and all the others involved in the process of showcasing these relatively ancient techniques, all of which need to be preserved for posterity.

wonder if this stuff is the fibreglass before fibreglass, similar process

I love this Guy. Thank you. I grew up with Mr Forester an Australian crewman on the Dam Buster Lancasters.

The attention to detail is amazing and how seriously Guy takes it is fun to watch. Getting to work on such an iconic plane must have been a joy. Keep the videos coming we love them!

You wonder how they made so many of these bombers in such a short period of time during the war.It looks so labour intensive..

Guy displayed a lot of good "listening" in this segment. This is a very good episode.

Quality video on the process of making a wing. Loved it.

John Romain reminds me of the Spitfire pilot in the Spitfire restoration episode

Reminds me of when I was a child in the seventies building balsa wood models and applying tissue paper and doping them!

both you guys have a dream job

Guy loves the hands on approach and things, mechanical, obviously just amazed at the amount of work needed, yet alone the obvious expense of keeping such an airplane in working order.

I Follow the resorting just Jane Lancaster and wow these chaps are amazing so to see guy doing his bit and knowing he does the job right well do guy 👏👏👍

Thank you so much for sharing this. I could watch experts like this all day and especially when John Romain is involved. Guy is so respectful and interested as well. Top man.

Well done that man - excellent!

Proper gets stuck in! I like it

I watch it in silence. So interesting and john is such a good instructor too. Silence ☺️ As I was stunned.. And it do have experience with this process. 👍🏻😉

Skills from both Fascinating ❤️😎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Fantastic fellow you no what he needs .👑👑👑

Awesome restoration work, I hope these guys pass on there skills to younger enthusiasts, a proper Gent friend of my dad's was a spitfire pilot and a passion he had were Rolls Royce cars, he had 3 proper 1930's era with the long running boards and huge head lamps, I used to love cleaning them and chatting with him about his experiences, we did a lot of disassembling cleaning and painting to the chassis and running gear on one he bought as a part done job, a couple of other guys John Sutcliffe and Dave Reid made the front mud wings and running boards by hand from flat alloy sheets rolling them back and forth through various stages of rolling wheel sets it was amazing.

Back in the day a bunch of women did that in a factory in a week. I watched one video and they where doing a spitfire wing in a day or two!

What a lad

Marvellous

Brilliant, Legends 🇬🇧👏🏻

Excellent video, great explanation, he seems like a good person to have an apprenticeship with, need any help help there? Good one for no music too works well.

I seen the Canadian Lancaster fly , A spitfire And Hurricane.. Bucket list is a Mosquito And hopefully Someone out there is restoring a Hawker Tempest Mk V or II

Amazing Amazing!!🇸🇪💪

Hard to fathom the fact that they were pumping these planes out at the rate they were. But then again you have to consider the nation was behind it and factories full of workers were focused on the task.

What a genuinely fascinating video! Keep this sort of thing coming!

Absolutely fantastic really interesting guy mate.well anything you do really is I'm hooked buddy. 👍👌👌

Guy is so OCD about his work like myself. Why working home remodeling and refurbishment fits me so well. A jack of all trades and attempted master of all is how I roll.

To some people this would be the most boring job in the world. To me this would be super exciting I would love to get up in the morning going to this job every day. Fantastic.

Nice to see plain hands doing the work, instead of the ubiquitous latex gloves.

Very interesting video, following your videos as there some very cleaver people out there. Just been watching the electric beetle. Great video, love to do that to my works van. 👍😁

When the cameras aren't around he just slaps some duct tape on them

Just imagine the pain of maintaining these things after a raid. all that work to perfect the lining and fabric wasted by a single bullet hole

I'm a huge fan of Guy from the U.S. Can I find his documentaries on any streaming platform here? I think Amazon has maybe one.

Top fellow yellow belly, come and do a program on ejection seats next Guy.

Guy check out the Milwaukee M12 and M18 riveter. I did 500 rivets on one 3 aH battery

Guy just does 2 weeks of this fellows work in 20 minutes.

I was watching the full programme on All4, but this, and so much else of what we see Guy doing, is why he would be wasted as aircrew. He is who makes a bouncing bomb, not the one you send out to drop one.

I don't know how long the dope covered ailerons last, but I took the ailerons off PA474 in1974, so they could be sent away to be recovered.

What's old is new, the process bears a lot to similarities to laminating carbon fibre.

It's covered in cloth AND soaked in nitrocellulose which in itself is highly flammable. No wonder these planes went up in flames when hit.

👍👍

They aren’t going to redo it with ceconite (dacron) which essentially lasts forever? All modern fabric aircraft are done with it or something similar. Nobody uses linen anymore. It doesn’t last and ceconite looks identical.

How do you even figure that out ...to tighten the Fabrice...wtf ...who does this

Are they saying "dope", "dough", or something else?

#teamseas................................................................................

He's not half as daft as he looks 😜

I'm calling BS on his price for the Irish linen. Unless he's buying it from leprechauns... No way it costs that much. 🙄

Wow! What must these Avro engineers have thought? Like we’re in a war, let’s make our ailerons through a process that takes 250hrs 🥲 Nice job Guy!
