Fully Fixed? Almost

- It has been a month since the initial break-in flight of the new engine. That flight was successful, but not without issue. In this video I go into some details about what has been going on with the plane, and some scenic views Flying around the San Luis Reservoir, Coyote Lake, and surrounding areas as I fly from Tracy Airport to San Jose Reid-Hillview Airport
Buddy, you pulled off the near-impossible with your 180 back to the airport. I was freaking out watching you. I'd be shaken after that, but that was some spectacular flying. Be careful out there.
Geez Ed....it's so good to see you back in the Captains seat!! You'll straighten out the little bugs that show up, and I can't wait to head out on new travels with you.... God's Speed my friend....I'm excited for you....for us !
So good to see you flying again! Love the video from no strut high wings! Fantastic views. Hope to get a 177 someday. Looking forward to your next vid!
Great to see you back in the air! Kudos
Dear Edward, I really enjoyed the video as I did all the ones before. Your videos have an impressive standard in terms of videography and storytelling - keep up the good work! Greetings from Stockholm, Sweden.
I'm glad to see you're flying again. I can understand your trepidation, but you have a new engine up there, I think you've already proved it. Now you just need to get used to it, and I'm sure that it's going to be okay. Thanks for taking us along with you, I look forward to more videos as you get back in the groove and feel comfortable in the airplane.
My license has dust on it..been on the ground a few years.sold my plane ..you really make me miss it all..
Nice travel with this almost brand new stuff, and a little leak is something not tough to deal with. God's speed, sir!
I'd like to see an "Around World" Amelia Earhart flight. Lol JK. Any travel would do. Thx for the vids. Subbed
Always loved the cycling of the landing gear on these aircraft------------reminds me of a crippled seagull with dangling legs.
And who can forget the GUMP check? Memories.
It is good to see that your confidence in the airplane is coming back. Looking forward to your adventures.
@Edward what a story! you needed at least a dozen of clean undys after that first engine dying on you. Smooth thermals from this ole model airplane flyer and builder... And remember : Always use compression powder on a new engine 😈😜 ( ole prank we always pulled on the new guy )
So what's shakin Ed...you doing ok ????. Haven't heard from you in a long time..been eagerly looking forward to a flight. Trust all is well
Subscribed, I am a student at the nearby airport.
If you are already up to a C210 , and you are not happy with piston reliability, I wondered how much is the jump to PT-6, like that bird that taxied ahead of you at 1:55. That look like a home build. But turbine are a lot more reliable than any piston and have lots of bleed air for cabin and de icing.
Such good camera angles and editing thanks a lot. I personally can't think of a better money pit than a nice centurion.
Wow! Glad it's running that good for you. Looks like you've been flying it forever, handled the bumps nicely. :) Amazing scenery as well.
Great video, sir. Can't wait for the next.
We miss ur posts!
Excellent video! Can you please tell me what video program you use? I really liked the red circle when you gave the details of the traffic. Super cool!
I use Adobe Creative Suite, Premiere Pro and After Effects. I manually created the annotations in AE following other youtube tutorials
You are a great pilot, but it must be very nerve-racking flying a new engine. Looks like you got all your flying ducks in a row. Good luck to you. I enjoy all your RUclips flicks from my lazy boy. Retired 72 yrs old.
Great Documentation. I had an experience where an FBO screwed the installation of my new PennYan Aero Engine, on my Piper Archer II. They delegated the job to two unqualified new hires behind my back and without my knowledge. The propeller, a STC-ed McCauley 2-bladed fixed pitch propeller was neither checked, nor, properly submitted for a factory prescribed major overhaul and was mounted "we put it back on as we removed it". However, another prop strike occurred while in the FBO's custody. Mechanics lied about encountering excessive vibration, falsified logbooks and lied about the plane's airworthiness. Plane had to abort its first flight and never was airworthy while in their custody. received 17 revised/altered invoices and the bill was three times higher than agreed in writing. Absurd billing charges included, without previous notice/agreement , "talking; making entries in logbooks for $ 112.00; looking up supplies; running up engine for an entire hour, "removal/install prop " for $ 522.00; "engine preparation charges etc...totaling about $ 14,000- and the owner of the FBO and their non-IA -mechanic sent 2 separate letters on 2 different dates, declaring their work "unairworthy". Got stuck with this mess and still in Court after 2 1/2 years. Recently , the FBO publicized fake flight tracks and harasses me thru basically all Internet media and Social Media to discredit my evidence and reputation....Pilots: AVOID THIS FBO!!!!!
Thanks for letting that wing cam linger while the Evo passed👍
Excellent video sequence. I watched them all. Very educational. Thanks for all your hard work putting everything (videos & airplane!) together.
Great video and crystal clear! Just a question from a novice . Why does the instrument cluster constantly blink? Isn't that distracting? Can't wait for your next video Ed.
This is an artifact caused by an interference pattern between the rolling shutter of the camera and the "pulse-width-modulation" that is used to control the brightness of the instrument panel.
In order to adjust the brightness of the monitor, the LED lights inside are only turned on for a fraction of a second, the longer they are on, the brighter the screen, as the screen dims the are off more than on. Couple this with how "long" the exposure is on the camera's virtual rolling shutter, sometimes the camera captures the LEDs off and sometimes on. You don't notice this from the seat, you just see the screen getting brighter or dimmer.
The blinking is an effect caused by the video camera. The instruments don't look like that in real life. 👍
@@eugeneweaver3199 oh,I see, didn't know that,glad the man ask that question
Great vid. Tracy, LVK area, know it well! Great views. always wanted to try a float plane landing in Del Valle...
Great views, the cameras on the wings really makes your videos
Wow....can't wait for a trip....everything looking good. You are definitely a hero for us dreamers & doers. Ya, I know you have no interest, or motive to be some kind of hero, but when a good ole American regular guy sets out to accomplish above average goals....and demonstrates all the persistence in the face of several failures as you have..and takes us with you on your journey, being a part of your victories and adventures is so awesome! God's Speed Captain Frye
Congratulations on getting it sorted and back in the Air .. Very pleasing to see ..
It’s a Beautiful Aeroplane. Watching from Somerville Victoria Australia 🇦🇺..
Awesome! Glad to see you're not making yourself dizzy with pattern work.
great video, it will take some time to get feeling comfortable again. Now as you are listening to every beat of the engine you probably hear noises that are not even there as the mind can sure play tricks on you after what you have been through. I had a 1973 cessna 337G skymaster years ago and the check valves in the hydraulic system were not holding due to dirt (or rust or something) in the hyd system so the gear would start to drop and the pump would kick on/off trying to mtn hyd pressure until eventually the pump burnt out. I would pull the gear breaker but then the gear doors would drop and I would have to slow way down not to over stress the doors. I think they said that they took a hyd pump out of a 210 and put it in the skymaster (or from a cardinal 177) maybe they all have the same pump. Anyway....its good to see you in the air again.
Hope all is well with ya big man. Missing your posts
Like to hear the stall warning horn touching down that's a perfect full stall landing. 👍🏽
Hi Edward, good to see you back in the Air...👍💪🙋
I'm glad to see the engine all fixed and you are back flying. Love the stall warning landing. I couldn't do those in a Lear, LOL!
Glad everything has worked out, BZ to the engine shop for standing behind what happened, enjoy that bird.
Great video perspectives and editing. Happy to see your plane is working out for you now have a beautiful week.
Excellent. I am glad to see everything is coming together.
Student pilot here that only has a few flights in. Excellent videos to watch, keep em coming!
Glad you're getting it all dialled in. Really neat aeroplane you got there.
Edward, good video. Do you have any outstanding issues with the new engine now
Congrats on 10k subscribers!
Breathtaking views in a breathtaking plane.
Hope all is ok man? Not heard from you in a bit.
I'm ok, but as the title says "Almost" :/
@@TheEdwardFrye I'm on pins and needles here
Were you out this afternoon over Livermore by any chance? I heard a Centurion overhead and thought it was you. The 6 sounded great!
Not over Livermore 3/13, thanks for watching
Enjoyed flying with you.
Back in the saddle big man.
Just curious, on your takeoff I noticed you only had about 33"MP. As a T210 should you be able to get 35-36"MP on departure to take advantage of the 310HP for up to 5 mins? Or you can get the higher MP but you choose to keep it at 33"?
Also noticed on your takeoff roll your nose wheel looked dry and clean, when you lowered your gear for landing, it looked to have some oil on it. May just be the lighting and camera angle but I would check on that.
Good to see you back in the air again so soon Ed. Looking good.
I wonder if you would enjoy becoming acquainted with a bunch of 210 enthusiasts out of Modesto. We’ve followed the model quite a while as owners and might have some tidbits for you over a range of topics.
That would be awesome, and near by :)
Nice Flight!!
Could you leave the gear down to slow you down and be able to still keep your power up?
The problem with keeping the gear down to go slow with the power in a really high setting is cooling. The engine needs airflow to keep cool, and at high power settings it's making a lot of heat. So the knobs for the balancing act are, "too hard on the airframe", "too hot for the engine", "not enough 'high power'"
👍👍👍🙏🛩
Awesome!
4:05 HEYYYYYY
YOU DONT RUN IT HARD DURING BREAK IN EVER. NOOOOO NOT EVER. YOU RUN IT AT HALF POWER CRUISE
Stop using an ancientl design engine, the problems youv'e had with it are ridiculous and not characteristic of a modern design at all.
That is such a good-looking airplane (I wanted to say "pretty" because it is, but I thought that sounded too girly!). Glad to hear it's still going well since the engine failure. Hope the wrinkles get ironed out soon.
