    Today, we're continuing the restoration of my 1949 Cessna 140A with new paint and interior at ArtCraft (artcraftpaint.com/ )! After taking off from Camarillo, we'll fly along the California coast and head north to Santa Maria where Teresa and her team will turn my aircraft into ArtCraft! We'll watch the whole paint and interior restoration process, from the initial design decisions to unmasking the finished product. Thank you for watching, I hope you enjoy!

      I owned a 1947 Cessna 140 in 1967 And 1968. It only cost $2,550. A former WW2 pilot checked me out in 3 times around the pattern at Detroit City airport all the while smoking a cigar. It was an IFR flight and I turned green. The smoke caused the IMC conditions. As you can see flight training was pretty minimal back then. At least I never smashed her up.

      She’s a very talented engineer and app designer. Both planes she’s restored are very affordable, if you take your time and research the process it can be very affordable. The avionics are pricey to be sure, she’s so infectious that I’m 100% sure Garmin cut her a deal to promote their line of navcom, gps and autopilot options designed to retrofit these types of restorations.

    • @jlr3636
      @jlr3636 10 месяцев назад

      I had no problem with the red over gray, chips and dents gave it character, however it now has a new lease on life and will maintain an extended existence because of the effort being put into it … and be safer.
      I’m happy this airplane is receiving the respect it deserves compared to the Taylorcraft BL-65 which was crashed nearby as a stunt for RUclips views. That little plane deserved more.

    Hi Stevie. I am more of an oldliner, so I favour 140A. My uncle was docter in town and I liked to join in his Piper Cruiser. Thus I had such a tremendous LOVE for flying, but could only afford to start after 60! Yes I got my PPL at the age of 67! What a moment in .

    • @johannel7209

    I’ve seen 140’s and similar aircraft finished in polished aluminum with color striping and was kind of hoping you might go in that direction. But when I saw the blue and white you went with I immediately knew I was wrong. You have chosen wisely. I admire your dedication to the history of this airplane.

    Santa Maria! We may be taking our EXCEL there for paint soon. When you said you don't have the rear camera on so you will have to look at me, well that's a nice thing, you are such a pretty beautiful young girl. I look forward to seeing your 140 all finished, great how you keep the vintage look. If you ever decide to paint the Bonanza concider a two tone paint scheme, wings and bottom half of fuselage color and top half white. Beech did a lot of that in the late 50s and 60s but maybe not have one that for your year of Bonanza. Whatever you choose it will be classy and great.

My color was Ohio State SCARLET!! You can see my plane at OSH this year at the ABS tent!! It was selected to be on display there this year. Come by and say hello!

    @leokimvideo 6 месяцев назад +3

    Wow brought back so many memories of my very first job in life. I was in a prop shop that was attached to a paint shop at Bankstown Airport Sydney. We had to assist the painters in preparing aircraft for the stripper, that silver 'tank tape' on everything important and non metal. But sometimes you had to deal with a old etch primer that the paint stripper wouldn't remove. That required manual scrubbing with Scotch Brite and MEK. Incredibly horrible job especially on a hot day. This video shows just how much work is required in painting a plane and as the planes get bigger the workload explodes. The tape work to get the lines is almost a dark art. Beautiful how it was being revealed.

    The mind just boggles at what the cost must be for all that work.
    Absolutely superb job though 😝 and a nice design. Have to admit I wasn't bowled over at first (day 1 of this year's flight to Oshkosh was how I came to know about the 140) but the more I see of it the more I like it.
