After years of wanting my own airplane, I finally bought one. Now I use it to commute to my Air Force Reserve duty and take the family on trips. What should I do next in it?

That brought back memories........I finished building my RV7 and did my first flight at 60R. Congratulations and I am enjoying your videos!

Id rather have a 61 year old Debonair than a 61 year old wife; the Debonair will be much more enjoyable and less expensive to maintain😀

5:00 “people who’ve flown p-51’s… which I hope to one day”… you’re 70% of the way there now!

Dozen, I’m following you since your time at the Thunderbirds on Instagram and now here on KZfaq. Your video is so cool and the quality is beyond. So fun to see you picking up your new airplane. I know exactly how it feels as my best buddy and I are operating our own Grumman Tiger since last year. Hope to see many more epic videos like this. Cheers from Germany 🇩🇪

Has to be a good feeling knowing your mechanic also has his money on the line! Definitely a good plane

He’s been a saving grace in all this! I like to turn a wrench, but having his knowledge has been amazing.

Pretty clean aircraft. I thought it looked like a Mooney at first, they are excellent and fast.

Currently working on getting my PPL and would love to buy a plane one day. I really like how cool this one looks but I dont know its name or manufacturer. What plane is this?

How is it flying to your reserve duty? Do you have a PPR to land at the AFB, or do you fly to a nearby airport and rent a car to drive to the base?

@DozenDuzit 2 жыл бұрын

I land at a nearby airport but could fill out some paperwork and land on base if I wanted to though. Maybe I will, but for now it’s just easiest to land at the nearby airport.

Dozen, we just flew that MCO/CLT turn you might remember me? Did you really buy a airplane from that dude? :) If you call off sick in CLT, call me and we'll fly the Husky.
