thank you for sharing your knowledge!

My condolences to the Family of Brian. A very talented person and just a great guy. Remember him from my volunteer days at The Aerodrome and was always smiling and kind to all. He will be missed, God bless him 🙏

Wow! I thought the Swiss chip-carving knife I use was sharp, but yours is incredible. I see where I make a mistake, though. I don't FINISH the backside before starting the front. I'll try your method. Thanks!

Nice work! And nice flight!

Magnificent!

I'm here for the sound of that knife shearing the balsa.

another out standing build john! i think this might be my next rog

Excellent work! It finally hit in the end but survived!

These "small" projects are really interesting. I like building them thought I never get them to fly. Yours flew magnificently! Carving the prop is a skill I need to develop (and I need a small drill press somehow). Thank you for sharing!

Lovely John, that rib making idea was clever 🙂

This flies beautifully! Too well for the roof beams.. A wealth of detail for basic tech here. I am somewhat envious of you John, for that beautiful narrow blade carving knife, and your prodigious skill in it's use. I bet this tool is a much prized one. The use of tape to mark bend points in wire is a great tip! Scrappy may be capable of being built mostly from the contents of the scrap box, and she may be apparently simple, but in build quality and flying performance she's much more than scrappy! Perfect film for basics. You make prop carving look easy!! Nice one John. 🌟👍

Wow John, you dove right in on the propeller. Thanks for the lovely video

Three questions. What carving knife are you using and where can I get one? Also, what size rubber? Great video and flights! tia

Beautiful little plane, let me guess 5 grams🙂 Greetings from the Netherlands

5:19 What happened to the prop?

Hi John! Scrappy flies very well! Wish I could learn to carve those balsa props! Just need to cut some blanks and practice! Thanks for sharing!

Simply wonderful ! What's the final total weight?

Hi John! Thanks for another wonderful indoor flying video! Those planes all fly so great!

Visited the Aerodrome for the first time in July. Accidents happen, but it's so sad when they do

That red and black high wing around 1.25 was the smoothest flying aircraft I've ever seen.

What a great opening scene, a pilot and his young copilot watching the miracle of flight. Another fun video and involving the young people is great to see, they are completely involved. Looking forward to the winter series and thanks for doing these videos.

thanks!

Hell yeah to that engine!!

Really enjoyable and a great standard! Two nice things, amongst many you get with indoor meets are the possibility of better interaction with other fliers and, definitely on show here, the nice landings on the smooth floor! Thanks John, this is excellent! 🌟👍

Wonderful! Nice flights!

Thanks for shar😮 lovely to see some younger ones!

Superbly relaxing to watch John, were any yours? My favorite wascthe flying disc, not sure what it's called yet but she has to be on my build list, cheers

This is really fantastic to watch. Really grateful you take the time to do this sharing something really nice.

Lee Richards annular monoplane- outstanding !!!

I had a grin the whole time🎉😊

Outstanding video John! Watching it, I felt like I was there!

Good stuff, Bubs.

What a loss. Guys like Brian Coughlin are the Aerodrome. An irreplaceable soul. Much like when Steve Irwin passed away, doing what he loved doing best, Brian's spirit will always live on!

Sending love to both his family and to the Old Rhinebeck family. Have visited so often the last few years and remember him fondly.

That super cap Halberstate was brilliant!

I was there when this wonderful man and great pilot left this earth. I still think of him every day. The only thing I can say is he died doing what he loved. May we all be so fortunate.

sorry to hear of this tragic accident. RiP Brian Coughlin and condolences to his family and all of his friend.

Does anyone know what caused the accident?

What a sound of the engine. R.I.P. Brian. Old Airplanes allways with some risks.

I hadn’t been to the Aerodrome since I was a kid and, as bad luck would have it, I was there to witness the crash. It will forever be burned into my memory. But it’s nice to see Brian in this video and so happy and passionate to talk about what he loves so much. Condolences to his family and friends.

Hi John! Your RUclips channel popped up today on my suggested rabbit hole list. Glad to see you are keeping busy and having fun in your retirement! I’m also growing older but not up doing lots of ham radio and surfcasting, often a bit of both on early morning excursions up to the beaches and breachways in RI. 5 years retired now here, think you went a year before me. Are you still soaring in gliders? Chris B. Stonington CT

may all his crosswinds in the next life be light and consent

Rip , ww1 planes are sketchy at best

Rip fellow pilot.🛩

Terrible tragedy to lose him. As well as the historic aircraft. Go west young man, blue skies and tailwinds.

What a nice guy, thank you for a wonderful tribute.

There was a fatal crash in England a few years ago in a similar plane

I always wanted to build the Guillow's Fairchild 24. But I'm realizing I'm an indoor guy. Tom Nied, Queen Creek, Arizona.

That B-24 is a beauty!!!

Thank you for sharing this, John. I've been upside down all day after hearing about this horrifying accident and Brian's passing as a result of the aircraft engine failure. Your video has definitely connected me to both Brian and his beautiful DVII replica. Hearing him speak about Cole is just a thrill; my dad took me to Rhinebeck back in the '70's, and the Aerodrome immediately became my happy place. Cole Palen was of course my hero, despite being the "evil" Black Baron! It's difficult to wrap my head around losing someone like Brian. Thoughts and prayers for Brian's family and the entire Aerodrome family during this painful time. He will certainly be missed!!!
