We need more Mike Pateys in aviation. Maybe more in general.
Love to see Patey ground loop another Draco. That is entertaining!!!
Well, conditions were pretty challenging that day if I recall correctly. I think he owned that one and said he shouldn’t have been flying that day? Mike forgot Dan’s tag line! “Superior judgement trumps superior skill”!
seriously, we can't keep up as it is ... but I get the enthusiasm .
In aviation, construction, and boat building.
So happy Draco is coming back!
Draco X
The video saying was starting is three years old already
Can’t wait to see Draco come back. It sure was fun to watch the first Draco get designed and built. I was lucky enough to see it in person at EAA air venture.
Always a treat to have Mike and Chandra on the show. It is truly amazing at how much Mike can accomplish. I am anxious to start seeing the new builds he has coming. Keep up the excellent work. Safe skies my friends 🇺🇸🛩️
So glad to hear about the rebuild. That was the absolute most fantastic plane.
Mike Patey
The most inspirational man on planet earth.
This guy is a legend, and my hero.
Wish I had just 1/100th of Mike's energy! I can sleep 10, sometimes TWELVE hours WITHOUT issue. I get stressed out just trying to fix and / or sell things I've accumulated in my barn over 2 decades. The harder I go, the more tired I get! I'm the polar opposite of Mike, LOL! Maybe I need to buy all my food & drinks from Utah.😂Always love interviews with Mike and Chandra. Thanks Dan, Christy, and crew, as always! 👍👍
And money.
@@gpaull2 The more energy you have, the more money you can make!
Honestly, I used to be the same way. Until I started having to work early. Seeing how much can get done before the sun comes up is amazing
you're not kidding lol me to
Years ago, a friend's father shared this wisdom with me: "If it floats, flies, or fucks, RENT IT!" A seaplane does 2 out of 3; if Mike makes something that does all 3, I wanna see it!
It’s always so nice to see you both, we love spending time with you.❤
I love Mike's philosophy. I'm just an rc guy but i always have something in the shop I'm building or working on. Great interview! Mike c
Good morning from Minnesota! It's really fantastic to hear what the Pateys are up to next! Great episode!
Always love to see what the Patey's are up to. And it's always mind blowing !
"Wake-O" or some variation thereof is actually pretty brilliant.
Draco will live forever!!!
The Alpha-Tross!
Glad
Mike mentioned about how aircraft owners should put more emphasis on engine efficiency and proper care.
Great people, great airplanes...can't wait!❤
"Where do you come up with those ideas?"
"When you come up with a crazy idea, you forget it because you can't afford it. But I come up with the same idea and I go for it because I got mega bucks."
Mike is a genius and a workaholic. He's earned his dough, and I'm happy for him. I'm just answering the woman's question honestly.
A Patey Albatross- turbine conversion, variable wings, STOL capable, hauling two off road smart car conversions under the wings with a jet BD-5 above the fuse for short fast jaunts....
Can't wait to see Draco X get going... And hope I get a chance to see it in person, since I never caught Draco.. And definitely look forward to seeing what the Patey clan doing with the Albatross!!
Two of my favorite people in aviation. Mike and Chandra. 😊
Aww, thank you so much.😊
Mike now has a smaller version (look similar except 4 engines) of a Hawaii Matin Mars waterbomber. The one in B.C. Canada just begun some test flights around Sproat lake. It will go to a museum in Victoria.
Well I have again been watching all Alenas' videos there.
I was wondering if Mike had got there.
I wonder if Mike can reach out to have a chat with Alena and a look over her aircraft.
I can imagine the conversation, we could get 3 more knots with some carbon over the wheels and 2 more knots from aero-ing the spars and more lift from carbon wingtips etc.
The conversation would be a masterpiece perhaps even the 2 families as a group chat.
Can you imagine Mike taking Alina up in draco or scrappy or turbulance etc.
The 2 people that have each done more to promote private aviation than anybody else, talking together.
Respect to you all.
The albatross is one of my all time favorites. So stoked for Mike!
A flying yacht is a hole in the sky that you pour money into. Can't wait to see her fly.
No, it’s both a hole in the sky and a hole in the water into which you can pour large sums of money!😂
This is not a new idea
Someone did this 25-30 years ago it had seadoo’s mounted
under the wings with winches to lower them into the water
Also had a beautiful leather interior. It was featured in one of
the aircraft magazines . I’m sure Mike will make something cool 😎
@@mhughes1160 There is a company who has already designed it, PT6s and all. I think they have actually built one. Amphibian Aerospace.
Years ago, a friend's father shared this wisdom with me: "If it floats, flies, or fucks, RENT IT!". A seaplane does 2 out of 3! If Mike makes something that does all 3, I wanna see it!
@@richardpark3054 I've heard of someone fucking a duck, but an Albatross?
Draco returning is great news, that plane was insane.
The US Coast Guard may still have a water landing strip in beautiful Lake Tahoe, California. I think an Albacross is what they flew in….for training not the night life or hiking trails.
Good news. Enjoyed.
From the Rescuers I recommend the name Orville the Albatross
This man works in his sleep, I'm sure of it. I reckon he's already got things "sussed" out for the Albatross going by his comments. Can't wait to see what eventuates. ❤
Winnedrago
The albatross NEEDS to be named "Orville" after the character in the Disney "The Rescuers." Master of takeoffs and landings.
👍✅Great fun interview🤣 All things Patey are phenonemal 👏
It was just yesterday i had the great idea of buying a mallard to do the Caribbean vacation thing. Bring a Zodiac, engine, and all the scuba gear.
Re the Albatross, it will become the modern version of the Catalina Landseaire! Check it out, might give Mike some ideas.
YES!! Another airplane build!!
"Is there another plane in the future of Mike Patey." I think that's the most rhetorical question ever. Love Mike!!!
AlphatroX
Loved Draco and thats why i started following the channel. The other stuff is also great but Draco rocked
Assuming that Mike knows that theres a company in Darwin Australia who are going to manufacture a new G-111T with 2 P&W PT-6 on it
Love his enthusiasm for aviation, but I also sense that without a disciplined, careful approach to go with it, that it’s all going to end up in tears.
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WAS IN TEARS WHEN DRACO CRASHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!THE DESPAIR WAS ALMOST OVERBEARING!!!!!!!YES, MAKE DRACO II!!!
An Albatross with "Pop Outs"! Hey Mike; are you going to put turbines on the Albatross? BACK TO WORK!😊
Albatross: “Y-knot”
the RV albatross
Draco's 10 improvements resulted in it becoming Draco X. X is the Roman numeral for 10. The Albatross will likely have more than 10. Since it is a twin, Mike could name it AlbatroXX.
The "Boss-Tross" or reversed "Tross-Boss".
Since you asked, call the Albatross "Boaty McPlaneface" :)
HOLLY re-incarnation , DRACO LIVES ! Bruce Wayne
Mike is a lithium ion battery 🔋. Goes dead all at once, but recharges super fast.
I always enjoyed milke and he's influenced me to get my pilots license so I'm working on that now
Wow, that's always been my dream, to take a Grumman Goose or Albatross and build it out to live in and fly anywhere. Glad to see I'm not the only one with that dream.
Is the Albatross seaplane the one on the ramp at Caldwell (KEUL) Airport?
If I won the lottery I would buy an Albatross and turn it into a camper.
his wife basically did.
Mike is a genius!
A 1-to-1 power to weight ratio is awesome! I thought we could only achieve that with RC airplanes.
What delight seeing the Patey's again.
I hope it has an onboard dinghy of some sort
"Back to Work" name for the Alba...
Alba-Boss
Mike's Albatross name Gooney . But, Gooney Bird was the nickname of the C-47 Sky Train.
Mike's Albatross- Caribbean Queen. Or Queen Carib!
You spent exactly 100% too much time talking about beverages. I almost clicked away but since you interviewed Mike Patey, I endured. "We have officially become a soda infomercial." That was a clever way to tell you to move on with the interview.
How about naming it:
"AquaDoll" or "AquaTross"?
There was a reason Jimmy Buffet turned his Albatross into a gate guard. Operational composts are going to be serious. Does Mike have more disposable income than Jimmy Buffet ?
The Albatross rating will be an interesting challenge.
Name the flying yacht…Airship Patey!
Draco gross: New Albatross name
Guys, guys there must be amphibious Catalinas with low enough structure hours to satisfy your lunacy better than a a a Goose? Meanwhile take a powder Mike!
Albert Ross is a great name for an albatross
When you have more money than you know what to do with. Can't lie.... I'd do it too 😂
My sleep is similar my accomplishment are light years apsrt
Laco X obviously!
Burt Rutan: Talks about Ski Gull....Mike Patey: "hold my diet coke"
Can you imagine Mike Patey on 8 hrs. of sleep!😝
sea duck from tailspin
Grumman Albatross modded to 10,000 ft/min climb
Yankee Buccaneer might fit the Albatross
Albert The Albatross 🦅
*AlbaYacht*
Instead of Boat, Name it BOAM Break Out Another Million.
Hey Mike! Will double slate cost you much in the way of drag?
Rough Waves name for the albatross
Albatross!!!!! A very historic plane. Please, Please, Please could you find the color scheme and markings from a WWII unit and paint the plane that way. As for the name, “The Rubber Ducky”
Great interview!! All things life and aviation!! Thank you for sharing your family Mike Patey! Please drink more H2O it will give you more life!
finally something Mike and I have in common… no sleep and Diet Coke
Suprised Mike Patey hasn't been kidnapped by Elon.
Just so impressed 🇦🇺👍👍👍
Im surprised Elon hasn't been kidnapped by Mike Patey! LOL
@@TakingOff 🇦🇺👍👍👍
Queen Caribe.
Albatross - "Turbo"...because it will be a turbo. Not the first.
Please make it RED!!!!!!!!!
Air B and B
It’s an Albatross. Name it Wilbur.
Mike and Chandra intersect with Jimmy Buffett! I nominate Phibby for an Albatross name. Am Phibby Us. Wright radials not P&W…..so probably not Covington then?
The Magic Schoolbus.
Okay, pass this name suggestion on to Mike, for his Albatross: Megatross. If he likes it, he can have the copyright, just mention my name, Bruce Curtis
I am wondering about the discussion about diet coke. I hope you guys don’t mean this serious. I stopped drinking this in masses. Its questionable to drink this in huge amounts. The Albatross is a great awesome idea. The Sealiner X makes me feel to fall in love with that idea. Good idea for sure. ❤😊
Fat Albert the Albatross.
Phat Albert
CloudSetter
13:01 It's pronounced "Vilga" and it stands for "oriole" in Polish
His choice of course but I believe it has been house and no aircraft build for 2 years now aside from engine swap in the Pilatus. What happened to back to work :)
as for the albatross idea if the PT-6 wont do it how about some crj-200 engines mounted honda jet style
He needs the weight up front.. the engines would have to be mounted further up front.
