So does this mean you won’t be able to take the flight with your son

You say what?? Thats just ... Smh

How dare you not conform

Holy Moly Jimmy😱. Seriously cannot believe they tapped you for that minor, minor, minor thing. They seriously need to review their letter writing skills to give you information on a breach. The way you read that out would lead anyone to believe you were not a safety conscious person. In this instance I think THEY were hypoxic. Keep up the great work. Love your videos. Best wishes from Dublin, Ireland..☘☘☘ Glad the gear problem was resolved👍👍.

Sooo… what was the whole thing about bringing an explosive device on board?

YES!!!!!

I always do on flight sim! LoL

🤣

Legend

I tried that on the B787 start the other day…. The Capt looked at me like I was mentally challenged! 🤣🤣

Yeah he's pretty good. Always making jokes but the guy has some serious knowledge. One of my 3 favourite channels of all time.

Yea, no way he pays to get into peoples feeds

@@kylehennen Lmao, thats not something anyone can do. I've watched Jimmy from the start and spoken many times in person. Hes just entertaining. Thats all.

Guy should be in movies, he's got. "IT!"

Buckle up…. We’re next…. 😎🤣

HAHAHA, that's awesome!

Awesome! Thank you!

Go For It! No regrets!

yo! finish this license... NOW, thats a thing you wont regret for sure and i dont fly planes XD

I'm 52, never too late to get that licence!!! go for it! If I can do it anyone can!!

@@WhiskeyAlphaPilot Hello WA! 🙂

I always wanted to fly… my wife bought me a flying lesson for my 50 th bday, am now 66 with about 800 hours, instrument rated and on my 3rd partnership/ ownership. I will fly for as long as am able.

Thanks for your comment, glad you enjoyed the video!

1988-90 Osan had the best Dining Facility in Korea, in my opinion. Camp Humphries had one with an awesome baked potato bar with all kinds of toppings, I miss that place. PS: Thank you for your service. Also I love them OV-10s.

Yup. I'll never get on a plane again in my life if I can help it but I love this channel LOL

@warmfreeze awesome! I used to contract with Bombardier for 10+ years. FBO-BDL Hartford Service Center.

@@ShredArmy fixed a lot of Fusion birds that came out of hartford.. lol

@@warmfreeze Hahahah, you’ve gotta be in Kansas!! Lol. 🤣😂💪🏼🇺🇸

@@ShredArmy lol oh dear.. did you contract up here? i probably know you LOL

Well heck, I toss my Lunch offer in too. If ya ever near JYO, or coming by, let's do lunch or dinner , heck even breakfast. Just shoot da breeze and have some good eats.

P factor! LOL!

I don't know tons about takeoff and that looked sketch.

OCD makes for a hard life but makes you a better pilot.

Checklists. Checklists. Checklists. They save lives those things.

Need to check these things fastened tightly and correctly to prevent such things happening again.

@@y2000ad1 Also normally have 3 poles so can use 3 wire if it helps. They're good ofr THOUSANDS of Operatons though, think at least 10K

Jimmy expends a lot of energy to keep busy entertained,and that he does. Like you, I worry about the older craft he flies,wish The Lord to watch after him.

Absolutely

What training? He does things by trial and error.

Rebuild Rescue hires people to do his work for him…

That 401 belongs in the crusher. He’s going to spend twice what the plane will be worth just to get it legal. There’s a reason it sat there for 17 years.

@@Veteran_Aviator That would be my call too. Just the price for fuel per hour should be enough to keep it grounded.

@@VoiceofDissent Hey it worked for the "Plane Savers" DC3.

More to come!

Sometimes, I wish it were a bit more boring... hahahaha

HAHAHA, that's awesome!

Thanks for your comment, glad you enjoyed the video!

You can do it!

Lol. He’s inspiring me to get my license at the ripe old age of 59. I just need to figure out how to pay for it. Any ideas would be great.

@@mikeratcliff1446 First suggestion - - find a flying club near you. Learning to fly with a flying club and their associated CFIs should be substantially cheaper than a flight school. My PPL is working out to almost the cost of two undergrad classes at the local university. I also would suggest finding a CFI "with gray hair", as in someone experienced who isn't just trying to get to the airlines. There's a wealth of knowledge in those older pilots gained through experience that the young pilots simply haven't reached. The old ones also aren't likely to drag out your training to pad the bill as some of the younger ones (and some flight schools) like to do. Likewise, try to find the smallest, cheapest airplane to rent for your training. Sure, a brand new Cirrus SR22 with glass cockpit is sexy, but does no good for a student pilot. Nothing wrong with "steam gauges" - - they've been the standard for 80+ years and are still found in older 737s and other transport-category aircraft still flying in the skies today. Obviously you want a safe, well-maintained aircraft to train in, but nothing wrong with 40+ year old airplanes if maintained. Do ground school on your own. Fly8MA on KZfaq has a free online ground school which they offer. Start this immediately before even bothering to get into a plane. The more you can teach yourself, the less time you'll be paying the CFI and airplane rental fees. Do buy a handheld 2-way aviation radio. The cheapest ones will serve you fine. The fancy features are not needed. I listen to the tower while pre-flighting the aircraft to get a feel for the traffic flow and weather. I tune into the ATIS (automated weather and airport info) and call for my clearances on it, all before starting the engine. Most airplane rentals are based on engine-on hours, either Tachometer hours or Hobbs (clock) hours. The handheld radio will shave 10 or so minutes off your engine run time *each* flight, perhaps more. If your rental rate is $100/hr, that's $16 saved per flight. Last one: Foreflight (GPS and charts for the iPad) is fantastic and ultimately saves money if you're needing to update your charts often. Buy a used iPad which has a cell modem built into it - - you won't use the cell phone part BUT that cell modem has a GPS receiver built-in, even if you never activate the cell portion. Used being the key word here. Nothing wrong with 1-2 generations' prior iPads for this purpose. The iPad Mini fits best in smaller planes. I used Swappa to find and buy mine. Above all, have fun with it! Aviation really is a neat community and it's been the most fun I've had in decades.

@@mikeratcliff1446 I was 64 when I took my check ride, you can do it for sure! I even got 5 interested pilots to start a flying club and found a used 172 cheap, bought it and got it air worthy for cheap. That was after 2 months flight training. The CFI was an ex Glider, Helicopter, jet pilot and find one that has a lot of experience.

@@grayrabbit2211 Thank you. Great advice. I have friends that are pilots and have several planes, a shop and might take me flying but they no longer give flight lessons. I’ll consider your advice. Again thank you.

Awesome thank you!

Good idea. I've been trying to figure out how to do a live stream after the video, but connected to the video...

Nice! Let me know what you find :)

@@therealjimmysworld will do.

Glad you enjoy it!

Thanks so much!

Nothing to be scared of. That type of limit switch is extremely reliable. In this case, it was the mounting that was problematic, not the switch.

@@zolotiyeruki makes sense. Just the cheapness of the part and being used in this very serious application.

@@rowdybroomstick6394 Well, It's an experimental after all. In a commercial it would be massive, made of steal, absolutely undestroyable, tested in all the circumstances - for the price of a small car.

@@marcus_w0 Or in the very least it would have *two* individual switches which would both have to switch on to show a green. If one of them fails, no green, verify manually. A false green is much more dangerous than no green when the gear is locked.

The switch part is not identical; there is exactly one critical difference! Can I get a CLEAR OUT MY BANK ACCOUNT?

so close!!

Thanks so much!

Hello and thanks for your service. There's always a part 103 Ultralight :) No medical, no license :)

@@therealjimmysworld I will look into it for sure, thanks for the info.

@@TwoMarinesWhoDisney jimmy beat me to it! Was just about to to suggest you look into powered gliders, they have a few people who have gone all the way across the country in one. With 7 fuel stops of course ;)

You can get your sport license without physical, just valid drivers license. You can also get in touch with the flight school that specializes in training pilots with disabilities.

Boiler Bytes: Able Flight providing training to students with disabilities / Purdue University kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o-B9m9Viqb-ZZqs.html

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Don't forget being able to leave when you want.

That would be great! As soon as they get the bridge opened back up ;)

It's fairly common for a fuel cap to seep a little bit when they're completely topped off. Avgas is hard on seals and dries them out, and they have to seal against the filler neck that usually has dings and scratches from fuel nozzles, so it's rather difficult to keep them fully sealed. The lower pressure on top of the wing combined with venturi effect along the interface of the cap and filler neck will suck that fuel right out of an imperfect seal. Some aircraft will lose fuel out of the vents too, you'll see a trail coming out from under the wing if you get a little uncoordinated. Nothing to be worried about unless it doesn't stop after you've burned a little fuel out, as it's not really that much fuel you're losing...it just looks like a whole lot from the pilot's seat LOL

That's what I'm talking about! CLEAR PROP!

Totally agree

Yep. It was proven during WWII that a good polish and a few layers of wax added 10 knots to fighter planes.

@@murphsmodels8853 well that’s a few knots closer, but still a fair way off the magic 250… gonna need some more BTU’s Jimmy…

see what happens when you don't wear your mask over your nose between drinks... (true story...)

HAHAHA, that's awesome!

Glad you enjoy it!

Just got in that 15min window!

for real!

YES!!!! Misery loves company! hahahaha

Can you post some videos as well? 🙂

@@paulsengupta971 I’ll get some up as soon as we start on it! I’ll keep you posted!

Thanks so much!
