Newly subbed, nice flight, good editing! Will be cool to see your channel grow man, for sure it's coming! This is the first video I've seen of yours, reco'd by RUclips.
Watching this video reminded me, me and my buddy stopped for fuel at Shelby County Sep 2021 after the LS Fest in My Vernon. The yellow RV reminded me...is there another yellow RV there? If not and that's Dons airplane, we met him getting fuel. Great guy, great airport....is the burnt out 182 still there or repaired?
What a gentleman! "Hey Whitney! You're new to experimental avaition. Probably a little nervous? Don't worry! I'm wearing the helmet. You're not!" Seriously?
@@buckmurdock2500 no. My car was designed with crash protection in mind, including multiple air bags, crumple zones, and passed multiple crash tests. My airplane was designed in the 1950s and had exposed steel tubing inches from my head. Are you comparing modern automotive design and technology against 1950s home built aircraft?
@@MotoFlightGuy IDK what this guy is talking about. If he looks up aircraft crash fatality statistics he will understand head trauma is the leading cause of death. Its actually smart to wear a helmet like this, I would do the same in an experimental light aircraft with enough room to reasonably do so.
She looks super impressed 😂
Great video mate.
You do a really nice job on the videos. Always fun to watch!
Thanks! Nice kitfox you have too
nice man!
Great video!

Thanks for the comments! Not easy to get a channel going, but I like sharing my passions with others. Appreciate you stopping by!
That was so neat flying next to that other plane!
Great video.👍
Nice row of thorps!
Hoping one day I'll have one to park there!
@@MotoFlightGuy 😂 you had to already have had that beautiful T-18 in the works at this point.

Yep that is Don's rv. Glad you guys stopped by. The 182 is still there and about to get a new engine!
@@rspain85 Awesome! Had we made it to Mt Vernon this year, we'd have stopped again... we're @ 10C if you ever get up this way👍
OMG, is that Maverick under that helmet?
I had the ninth built Clement tailwind what a great airplane
I believe this is the 3rd tailwind to be built and fly. No clement mods, just a stock W8
What's with the gloves?
Gloves AND the Helmet?
What helmet is that? Not flying experimentals yet, but planning to - and plan to wear a helmet as well. 👍
It's from flighthelmet.com. I had them build it for me with their noise canceling comms
What a gentleman!
"Hey Whitney!
You're new to experimental avaition.
Probably a little nervous?
Don't worry!
I'm wearing the helmet.
You're not!"
Seriously?
Thanks for stopping by!
A pilot puts on a helmet the next thing out of my mouth is “Where’s mine?”
What, no g-suit?
who built the airpane? where? it looks familiar. :)
This was built in the 60s around Minneapolis
What’s on his head? Is he a Naval Aviator?
on fight sim he is ! I bet his callsign is "Craftsman"
What engine is in your Tailwind??
C90-14F
The helmet and gloves with short sleeves and shorts is a little over the top.
Did I hear that right? He learned it all on flight sim? 😂
Protecting your head is over the top? I guess you could say I'm over the top then!
With a t-shirt and shorts, yes. Do you also where a helmet when you drive your car? Why not?

Then why doesn’t she have a helmet?
Nice helmet how come the girlfriend doesn’t get one?
Working on that!

Jack Handle signing off

Nice scion
@@clixxy45live14 nice corolla
Dude, lose the helmet!
And the gloves.
I'm curious to hear your argument for why?
Because SHE isn't wearing them! DUH!
