Good video. At least you were able to fly. We’re gonna be shut down for the next week or so. Crazy winds everyday till 12th looks like plus a chance for snow.
Great video, Jon. Nice try with the gender reveal, guys! You and your son shared laughs and smiles while making this attempt and I'm certain the expecting parents and friends shared laughs and smiles too. A win in my books!
Hey thanks for watching and I couldn't agree more! The people on the ground still loved the airplane flying over and had a great reveal with the smoke on the ground! It was a Win in my book aswell!
Sorry but it was operator malfunction. holding the tank (which is obviously a repourposed fire extinguisher) inverted moved all of the powder away from the pick up tube. only the powder in the pick up tube was discharged.
Yea that was also a thought but it definitely was right at red on the Guage I've looked and it should have been full so it's possibly a mixture of both but I'm not completely disagreeing with you either way it's a lesson learned!
So by virtue of the 2 seats in this aircraft it means you've got to have some sort of License(aircraft) to fly her OR him? So is this a paid, "GiG" as I've seen these mostly in South American Nations? Unfortunately I've seen at least two bad crashes as pilots performed this activity. Glad you survived it. Alright, I see the word, "experimental" written on the plane, I had forgotten. Be safe Merry New Year
@diggy-d8w yes I'm a private pilot and the ones people get hurt are when they do stupid things like go low and climb way to hard! Nothing unsafe about what we did in this video all I did was fly an airplane that loves to fly. I didn't stress the airframe because we just stayed 500ft and didn't do a crazy climb out after.
I don't care, I mean I'd want to Tip You if you flew over for my family but it makes no difference to me. All I know about it are what I mentioned above, some that ended badly. I'm glad your flight went well. HNY
Yep, they do crazy/stupid things & I knew this but chose not to say it since their families already had enough grief w/o a non pilot like me to make a judgment type comment. I won't do that even to my enemies. And non of what I said was related to you as a person/pilot. I was sharing the little I'd seen on the topic & it was all aviation related. That said you made it back to Cheers to Success. Take it easy out there, I'm only here learning about aircraft & related information.
All good Jon, Happy New Year
@richarddubord3978 Happy New Years!
Good or bad.. great video and we always learn from our mistakes. Next time it will be that much better.
Great video! Don't take the tank thing too hard! Happy New Year's to you. 🎊
Thanks for watching! Happy New Year to you as well!
Great video. I wish it was bettee flying weather here. Happy New Year!

@@thecottonpatch80 winter time! Ain't it fun!
Very informative, the next one will be great ! You got to fly with your son on a real nice afternoon so to me it's still a win-win
Heck yea I agree!
Save the bottle, you can drill a hole in it, put a valve stem on it, and air it up with a compressor. Good video.

nice video
@@WarrenKimpel thank you!
I don’t think yall are to blame. That bottle was probably old, just like extinguishers they need to be recharged periodically.
I'm thinking that's the case however we definitely failed to plan! Should have gotten 2 of them and practiced!
Happy New Year Guys! Here’s to flying in 2025!
@wisdomspitter7688 Hey Happy New Year! Thank you!
Shit happens
😆 facts!
nice, we have to met.
Absolutely! I'd love to see your bird too!

Maybe throw pink steamers next time.
We have a new plan! Video to follow! And that is definitely part of it!
I am sorry, but gender reveals are way overrated.
@outlawflyer7868 I get it and I've never done it but for some people it's a big deal so if I can help to do that it's my pleasure!
