I bought a $500,000 airplane that was abandoned for 11 years and it looks rough, but can we get it to start? This Cirrus SR22 sat abandoned at Frederick Municipal Airport in Maryland collecting dirt and bird nests. After seeing this plane in person I've definitely been second guessing my buy. If the interior, avionics, and engine look as bad as the outside...we're going to be in big trouble.

I hope you checked into the cost of the repacking the parachute? It is very expensive. And have heard it takes a while to
11 years about 4,000 days ... thats one birdy plane
you have got to stop buying planes with the smoking wire app ... ;)
The previous owner should have paid you to take it since they apparently had zero interest in flying it anymore. Truly a rescue in need.
what if the person who left it, got sick or something? Maybe the dream of life, but no more possible because of any shit that happens in life?
Composites left in the sun for 11 years is an insane situation. Someone had more money than good sense.
Totally did not recognize Joe without the beard!
I was wondering why they didn't introduce this new Joe fella for a few minutes.
Exactly! My first thought was: Gee how many Joes does he have on his team? 🤔 But then it dawned on me that we see the real face of Joe for the first time‼And you look darn good like this Joe! Makes you 10 years younger too 👍.
He looks 20 years younger!
Looking good. It's summer boys, shave!
Much better Joe😊
who the heck buys something as nice as a SR22 and ditches while its still so close to new? Hard to understand how something so new gets to be abandoned. Hope it works out well for you guys though.
There's a lot of us that have no connections to others and when we kick off who would know what we have and where it is.
Usually, its the chute service that does it, its around $20k on these and really hard to get parts, there is a waiting list.
It all comes down to one word money. I might add people die, other financial issues alike the 2007 downturn.
That thought crossed my mind. But then I thought, someone who has money, enough money not to care about money. I get it. But that should be a crime to do that to any plane.
They figured out that the purchase price of an airplane is only half the cost of flying an airplane.
Joe you look 20 years younger with the shave!
I was soooo pissed when I saw this. Frederick is my home airport and I had my eye on the plane for years. Now that I’ve seen the video, I am glad that’s not me. 😂
It won’t stay In the air long. They’ll miss something and it’ll go down.
@@RaceMentally that is really really really messed up to write that. Poor soul.
I would never feel safe flying this heap.
The state of this airplane breaks my heart. Who just leaves an amazing airplane like this to rot? I hope the panel is still good!
The panel? Are you nuts, all takes is one bite from a rat into any elect wire or flight control cable you can’t see and it’s death.
People do the same thing to million dollar yachts.
Happens way more than you think...
@@benjigault9043 I'm sure it does. My uncle was talking about buying another plane right up until right before he died. If he had actually bought one, I'm sure the family would have been at a loss. They might have sold it right away or simply let it sit and paid the hangar fees only.
They only factored in the purchase of the plane, not the cost of storage and maintenance.
Or they lost their job.
Or they died.
Well, I was very happy to hear her start & run. She Purred like a kitten! ❤Happy she has been rescued. 😊 Joe you look younger & a lot cooler on a hot day!
135k was too much, but a Cirrus is a really cool plane. Looking forward to seeing more videos on this rescue!
Yeah about 140,000 to much. 😂
I think they mean 50,000 but just put too much zero😂
@@kewintaylor7056 The 500,000 refers to the price of the aircraft when it was new in 2003.
The name for this airplane/project the “Terrarium” with all the moisture and moss growing in it. I love these videos, makes me feel a lot better about some of the maintenance issues that pop up from time to time.
FYI, there is another RUclipsr in Arizona that picked up one of these planes not too long ago. He found out there was a long wait to get parts, and the parachute needs to repacked every
now and then. Not cheap.
Someone quoted $20k for the parachute repack/replacement. That can't be right, can it?
That's actually pretty close to the right price. The earlier models you have to cut through the body to get to the parachute. Very tedious process.
I'm so glad to see you finally got this one! We used to be tied down right next to it.
The bird nests in engine compartment, although not great, is gold to the viewers whom have ocd. Seeing the terrible condition and what you guys do to them is extremely satisfying,. So all in all don't have buyers remorse on the cirrus because it makes for great content 🇺🇲
It literally took Joe speaking before I knew who he was without the beard lol
Hey guys. I have been with you guys from the beginning. I look forward every week to seeing the next video. You have a really great team. I have a pilot license and have owned six different airplanes in the past, back when flying was kinda affordable. haven't flown in a while. I really miss it. I also have my Glider rating. Since I live near the Blue Ridge Mountains that was a lot of fun. I like Joe better with a beard lol. When I saw him without it I said who is that. I thought he was a new guy. I think you will do great with this airplane. It has a lot of possibilities. I was concerned when you were looking at the engine. Glad it turned out the way it did. I really miss Sam. He was a good man. Keep up the good work. God Bless all of you.
That Sundays ad was adorable!
I'm super excited to see what happens with the Cirrus! Gorgeous plane!
Wow, great job guys! I was amazed at how it started up like it was just flown an hour earlier!! Yes, she is going to need a lot of love, but since the engine is great it looks like a win overall. Man, I didn't recognize Joe without his beard, looking good Joe! Stay safe you guys!
Hey Brother! We always appreciate hearing from you, thank you for being apart of the channel and always supporting 👍🏻
It wouldn't be Rebuild Rescue without demo day at the bird hotel. A little spit shine on the interior and she'll be good as new. My guess was 72% so glad I was wrong. Thank you for another awesome Saturday. Happy Independence Day to everyone. Be safe and don't get dead everyone.
135k is insane for a plane that sat for 11 years! I really love these videos. I don’t know how it could possibly be profitable to do what you’re doing, but I really hope you keep doing it! Maybe start a flight school and use some of these rescues to instruct, that might be a way for some of them to make money.
Cirrus owner here G3 Avidyne/430. Great find. Good luck with restoration. Please post avionics shop and interior shop for fellow owners who look to upgrade. Hope to see you at Oshkosh if you plan to attend.
@@billkinzler3773 We’ll be there !
Great video, thanks for sharing, I just recently purchased a 1954 E35 Bonanza, had an issues with birds living under the cowl as well, this gave me a lot of hope.
At first it looked like the rescue is gonna be a rough one, but I think this one is gonna turn out to be one of the really good ones
We sure hope so ! Can’t wait to get this one in the air !
I feel like you all need to get a large portable canopy to block the sun for things like this. Would also help you see the screens.
Yeah, if it had shelter from rain and direct sun it would have saved SO much damage!
And covers to keep the birds out!!!
I've owned a 2005 and a 2008 Cirrus SR22. Seeing one stored outside, much less neglected like this one, breaks my heart.
Great job guys. I had high hopes on it starting. As soon as you showed us the clean. But old fuel had zero water. Yep save the cirrus
I tried to buy that plane many times. Always told they couldn’t sell. Glad you guys got it.
Looking forward to more of this Cirrus rescue.
Finally A win. Thanks Jason and Joe.
It would be interesting to hear the backstory on the airplane. That's way too much value just to let rot at the airport.
Wow. Seemed to start right up. Good luck rescuing the avionics and all the other necessary airworthy components.
Great job guys another rescue ready to fly again
People waste the nicest stuff... really hard to fathom.
Nice start and all the best with the rest of the cleanup and refitting.
Thanks and regards.
good luck chaps hope you get this lovely looking airplane flying soon
That's half million dollars. Very nice airplane SR22. 🛩️🛩️🛩️🛩️👁️👁️😊😀☺️😁⭐💯🤩
29:39 never forget watching your first video back in the cold with the free abandoned airplane
I definitely would take all the technical precautions on engine startup .....,such as lubricating the piston rings ,draining water out of the oil and fuel etc. , I am not a aircraft mech ,but do have a little engine savy......
My hearts breaking. I’d like to know what happened for someone to allow such a beautiful plane go to waste like that.
Seriously, I assume someone had major family, medical issues or just died??? Surely if they could afford to buy that they could have afforded to at least find covered storage if not indoor storage!
I'm really glad the engine was fine!!!
Sometimes it's just better to be lucky than good. I didn't recognize Joe without his bird's nest too😊.
I wish i was there to witness that start. Looks like a good deal Good luck .
Hard to believe it's been 11 years by the way that engine sounded. I barely recognized Joe lol, looks good without the beard.
Best episode in a while, let’s hear more about this Cirrus, hope you make money on it.
😂 Joe looking 10 years younger without the beard and his new pearly whites! Hard working legend he is!🏆
This Cirrus has all the bells and whistles on it, like getting a loaded Cadillac, and the added bonuses were it started up and ran with no issues and it has a parachute, you can’t beat that.
Congratulations 🎉 looking forward to see more videos on this machine 👍🏼
More to come! Thank you for supporting Brother👍🏻
This episode: 100% enjoyed the most of any! Thank you so much!
Awesome! Thank you for watching and supporting Anthony👍🏻
My brain cannot process leaving THIS out for 11 years.
Nice terrarium!!
Great to see it run. I was leaning toward Jason's 40% (or lower). Glad we were both wrong! Tires, new fuel, temp avionics and a thorough check and it might take to the air soon for the one time ferry flight. Great find and the best of luck.
WOW, that was a pleasant surprise to see and hear that engine running smoothly,without a lot of smoke,on stale fuel. At least you have a “ partial “ winner so far.
I say you get the window sealed up, doors fixed, avionics overhauled, tires and breaks replaces and you can fly her home to the rescue hanger so she can have a full inspection with all the correct hardware!
That is a pretty sweet plane! It looked a bit rough but it cleaned up pretty well. I did see it had you favorite birds nest in place in the engine compartment. 😂😂😂 Good luck on the new project!
Thank you! Glad to see you on the channel Brother!
Its great to welcome the new guy to Rebuild Rescue. I'm really going to miss Joe though.
One of the first things I thought of was rodents. I worked for an airline and we had several instances in which rodents had been seen in airplanes so the a/c were taken out of service until the rodents were found and removed. There was ALWAYS wiring damage.
It Will be a great rescue!!!
I absolutely love Cirruses, but are you financially ready for this Jason? Even if everything with the airframe and engine is great, you'll need a CAPS replacement and upgrade to electronic CAPS ignition, as well as an ADS-B out solution. If you need any avionics work done and you can get it to KJYO, come on over!
Great show thanks guys 👍
Glad you enjoyed Andrew, thank you for stopping by 👍🏻
Thank you for the video.
You need a counter in the corner for $$$ spent on a rescue it may spin faster than you can imagine
I think it will start!
I’ve worked as a federally licensed aircraft mechanic for 40 years. The single most important thing you can do is a thorough records inspection. Not only on the aircraft but the engines, propellers and avionics. Each may have Airworthiness Directives issued against them. The second is a thorough annual inspection. Don’t skimp on this inspection as you have no personal history on this aircraft. Most aircraft manufacturers have an aging aircraft inspection that can be done as well and especially where you’re looking at composite materials in the elements for an extended time. It’s an area where you need to put some good focus. Good luck on your adventure. You will certainly get plenty of content from this project. Expensive as it maybe. Enjoy!
I didn’t know Joe was as young as he is! 😮 No beard makes a huge difference.
Omg I'm so excited for a nee build like this!!!!
Holy smokes I wish you guys were closer! I used to love flying. I haven’t flown for quite a few years now. Every time I watch one of your videos makes me wanna go get an airplane again, with no money ha ha. Thanks for a great video. If you’re ever in the Reno area, let me know.
At least some good news at the end yet one of the biggest projects, I reckon. Very interested to follow as well.
If I could fly, I would love to have that plane. It’s outside my price range, but I would still love it when it’s all fixed up and ready to fly.
Good stuff brother. Glad that engine wasn't toast..
Me too!
Oh my. Why would someone leaves something of such a high value outside for so long. Would be the cost for keeping it in a hanger so much higher than the lost value of it? Also - how can it be that so much water leaks in? Its an airplane, it should be leakproof, even if it sits outside.
I really hope you can make it work, the airplane itself looks really nice and it would be a joy to see it flying again.
When these airplanes sit outside week after week they just fall apart.
@@rebuildrescue Thanks for answering, I guess the same applies for cars and houses that aren’t looked after.😅 Maybe that statement of mine was a bit naive.
Joe looks 20 years younger without the beard!
As a Cirrus owner it is so sad to see this plane in such poor condition.
enjoyed every second of it! wow
Awesome! Thank you!
Joe, you shaved lookin' good buddy. That plane looks like a good rescue. I will say you are cursed with bird crap though. Thanks for keeping them going it's enjoyable.
Watching you cleaning out the engine compartment, makes me hold my breath.
Thanks for saving the airplane 💯🤓
Did not recognize Joe without the beard! I thought you had a new member of the crew! Yes it will start! good luck!
Manufacturer - good plan. The manufacturer will also give an honest assessment on what they would put in the airplane given what you have and how much value is in that.
I picked up a 1946 aronica chief that sat for 12 years, bird nest like yours, clean it up mmotor run fine, just a c65
The ONLY thing that REALLY failed on the aircraft were the window seals to be honest!!! BUT DANG they caused a lot of probs!!!
It seems your love buying planes with a lot of bird poop in the engine bay, i remember when you first try to start the 401 and how much was in that plane. bless you all it must be so disheartening to see these fine planes just sitting and just collecting dirt and being homes for birds. so happy to see you all getting these old planes flying again.
Nice to see Joe's twin brother on the job 🤣 Almost unrecognized having his beard all shaved off. lol
Happy that the plane started. That's Great! One question, where does the money come from to buy these aircraft?
Great video it reminds me of the old days.
Ohh, I see the essential vise grips on the door strut 😁
If you need a Cirrus support group - talk to the boys from JR Aviation 😂
Gotta watch as soon as I get home. Happy Saturday y'all!
Happy Saturday!
Holy cow joe looks so different, so much younger
She cleaned up nice and I was hoping for a home run on this one, but when I saw the natural grass carpeting the only thing I could hope for would be a good start up. Hey, two out of three ain't bad! Sounded sweet, firing up on the second turn and purring like a kitten.
Y'all had us worried but what a great sound.... I think ya have a winner there, but ya do still have a biiitttt more money to put in it.... and I'm sure it will be worth it...
Thanks for another exciting/ scary episode..... what fun we all had!
😎 bob
Rebuild Rescue has been brought to you today by the letters N and O let’s all say NO, Jason we can’t hear you, say NO Jason 😂😂😂
Sweet ass airplane and it was just neglected what a shame. But SR22 as cool as they are they are straight money pits worse then other private planes due to the avionics and especially the parachute pack they have onboard. I hope you guys get this old girl flying again LET'S GO 💪🏼
When I first saw the Cirrus logo in the rear floor I seriously had to do a double-take as I thought it said 'Chia'. Well, it is green... ;-)
Then my next thought was, "I wonder if he knows that parachute needs to be replaced, how expensive it is and how long it takes once he's on the list for replacement?"
Add in another 7-8,000 for the ballistic chute repack.
@@dieselyeti Inwish it was that cheap…. They’re up to $20k+
@@rebuildrescue That's replacement, not a repack. Which does it need?
Probably the same engineer that did the 1999 XL Ford Extended cab 150 back door pins too!😅😂
Looks like a beautiful airplane and will look even better once it’s had the “Jason and Joe” treatment! Can’t wait to follow the journey all the way from Northern England UK😊
Your support means more than you know, thank you David👍🏻
Great video as always!
Awesome to hear! Thank you
Oh my gosh, your conure is sooo adorable 😂😭😭
I think the bird stuff insulated the engine and put a protective layer over it.. so I'm sure it will fire straight up..😆 🤣
im pretty keen to se this one in the air again
Joe didn't recognize you without the beard,
