Hi Jimmy. My dad worked for Garret and installed that afterburning engine on their Falcon 20. It was a test-bed aircraft at that time and that engine was for a Taiwanese fighter. He has that exact picture in his office. He passed away this past January, but that picture is very iconic and cool.

You would be surprised at the horror stories many Cuban people have about their trip to America. My son is a second generation Cuban American. His birth mother was born in the USA but his birth grandparents escaped Cuba during the Castrol regime. People treat him poorly because of his skin color but I told him to be proud of his heritage. It takes a lot more effort to cross 90 miles of open ocean than to wade across a river. He is an Eagle Scout, and holds an AS and BS in History. He is a well muscled young man who just wants to go to Law School.
As far as I know the falcon 20 is the only civilian jet who had afterburner, but with the GE CF-700 engine; algo the falcon 20 is one of the few planes qualifyed by FAA with no structural life limit, I'm not sure if the 200 has the same certification, for the GE CF -700 engines equiped there were an upgrade program to install the most modern, efficient and less noisy Garret TFE-731-5ar and -5br. The CF-700 is nothing more than a GE-CJ610 equiped with an after fan.
I have a friend that was flying a Falcon 200. He was of the impression that there were only two flying and he was not sure about the other one. Then the FAA issued a bunch of AD’s. He felt it was designed to make them stop flying it. To expensive to fix. I’ll guarantee you can’t get parts for the engines. It’s hard enough to get parts for the CFE 738’s on the 2000!
Make a full motion flight simulator, cabin, Wings and all with working operating landing gear that touch down on a belt-driven (like a tread mill) runway. Loud speakers in the engine cowls that simulate the jet engines, with an immersive out side projection system.
I’ve worked on a lot of these that is not gonna be cheap plus be sure to check the CAMP to see where it is and how far out maintenance/Due items are. $$$$$$$$
I prefer you do the Antonov An2, or something else of interest, like a Wilga, or ercoupe. The bizjets are all the same..... a long tube with plush seats, foldout tables, lots of cabinets. You have already been down this road with the Elvis jet.
What's really sad is we have people here in the US who swear Cuba is a better country than the US, and we need socialism to be just like them. Michael Moore even made a movie about how much better Cuba is than the United States.
I do believe that Rafael Caro Quintero owned a Falcon 200 back in the mid-eights. They were known for 2000-mile range with payload of 300 kegs, I'm sorry I mean four passengers.😛
Truthfully, as soon as you mentioned "mould", I would've walked out and never look back... Not worth your health to much around with mould in any plane or vehicle...
I'd love to fire up a nice turbine. My neighbors, not so much. Hmmm, panel upgrade or buy a jet? What a fun project to mess with. The hornet's nest might be a dealbreaker though. I suspect the value in the planes there is only in parts and aluminum scrap value and the cost of disassembly/transportation certainly needs to be considered.
You didnt open the engines to see the corrosion. I am guessing they will have a lot, i am also guessing that airframe is toast. Just a guess seeing how much moisture was inside that cabin.
An interesting story about Cubans, but rather than a desperate situation, adventurism is present here! A desperate situation is when in large US cities people sleep in tents, in the city center, under bridges and die from drugs, violence, murders or colds, without being able to get treatment!
Jimmy whenever I have free time, I work a lot I watch your videos. I just love it. I started flying when I was 16 1/2 years old went to Emory Riddle for two years ended up working in the casino industry for 10 years. . The various airplanes that you’re looking at I’m sure I’ve dealt with those guys in the casino business over the years. Some people just have too much money and they’re stupid.😂 Keep up the great work,great love your channel. For the last few years, my wife watches all the videos with me, which I find would be amazing. Thank you. RICK MUSK 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Maybe it's just my bad back speaking, but I think any private aircraft claiming to be a luxury conveyance should at least be big enough to stand up straight in!
Hey jimmy love to channel, any advice or help you could Provide to get a “bar find “ unicorn of an airplane like the ones you find? I’m going to get my A&p and wish to use all my Teachings and resources To bring back a unicorn to the skies
Yep, you need that jet. I don't know what will you do with it, but that s.h.t is too cool to let it die, or just sitting in some museum. Or anything else.
I love Jimmy and this channel...but here lately isn't not about saving aircraft anymore like he started out and maybe that's where this is headed. But after seeing him try to save a lot before and then not doing any makes me wonder....??
Thanks Jimmy love all the content! Take the fuselage make it into a treehouse AB&B” and take the jet engines and put it on an old Winnebago like the Spaceballs ship. lol its funny in my brain!
Jimmy i know what the Secret word was that they used to take the crims down WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG? then get on the floor mother trucker lol and the rest well Jimmy we cant tell ya lol Australia here lol fix it get it back in the air ??
Are you really a pilot or just a fool? If it’s not airworthy turn the entire aircraft in whole as an actually fully functional on the ground simulator. Mount it on hydraulic synchronized mounts so the plane has actual motion. It can be very profitable and fun for young pilots wanting to have such an experience. Also rent it out for movies on stationary shots on locations.
whats the price of this aircraft if it was restored to flying condition? Would be cool to see you buy it, get it back to flying condition, and sell it. Would be a million plus though to restore, but I would watch every single video...and I know many others would too.
@@djpmatchbox Worth is dependent solely on your or customer usage. If someone wants to buy a plane for cheap go through all the hassles to make it air worthy again and then sell it, they'll likely hold up precious capital 💰 in that venture for years to come. Makes sense for Business owners, not for private individuals. Worth/profit? Depends on the buyer paying. Maybe 500,000 💵 profit after all the work!
Its sad that we can bring old cars back but not really old planes i know they not the same. I really think they make everything so expensive on plane's is for that reason. So not everyone can do it. Yes safety but there are more car accidents then plane's.. You could start drag racing planes take the wings off and send them. Get all the old planes that cant fly and send then on the slat flats 👌

Planes, a great financial decision. Lol!
Hey Jimmy I have a question on how the conversation process works for airplane for mobility issues
@therealjimmysworld Dave Ramsey has a nice challenger 300, so he already thinks they are awesome.
El chappo that’s Hilarious 😂
Apparently the plane is still a bait plane. It lured Jimmys world to its location.
HAHAHA!
Jimmy seems to have a knack for finding airplanes that will never fly again! 😅
Yes. The DEA are Master Baiters!

@@tadillon I’d love to see more besides that single picture. Is there more info or media out there somewhere? Would love to know/see!
I'm wondering what happens to the siezed aircraft there.... I notice cowls off the twin Beech in background. Are they sold to highest bidder or what?

Wow I was shocked when you found that suitcase full of money in that plane!
Cool stuff Jimmy!

Remind me to lock all my cabinets if Jimmy ever comes to visit
Hmmm, working jet engines. And just by coincidence, the Elvis bus has mounting spots for jet engines. Coud this be providence in action?
Dassault builds some good looking bizjets. Those Garrett ATF3 engines are an unusual 3 spool design.
ATF standing for Almost Turbo Fan!
Unusual like the RB211 or Trent? 😂
@@stlflyguy The RR engines don't reverse core flow twice, do they. Unusual.

That Cuban apparatus looked safer than a lot of stuff I’ve seen you fly Jim 😂
Trying to go incognito while having bottles on board named "12 year old scotch" seems legit.
Jimmy, stop messing about with this sort of crap. What is happening with the MiG and the T6? We want to know.
You could do the same thing with the jet as you now do with the 421 - and do it faster.
Hello everyone from Buffalo Niagara Falls NY USA 👋🇺🇲
You mean snowing USA. LOL. Hope you guys are okay up there.god bless ya
Great video man.
Truthfully, as soon as you mentioned "mould", I would've walked out and never look back...
Not worth your health to much around with mould in any plane or vehicle...
AC looks in very good shape. Could be returned to service
Yeah looks like a deal but you're going to need all of the logs maintenance so forth that's tough to be had on those planes
There are few things more awesome than a cockpit with a billion gauges and switches.
That thing looks fast sitting still.
I'd love to fire up a nice turbine. My neighbors, not so much.

Hey Jimmy - It would be great if you could buy a jet for your daily run around, but I don't think it will be this one. Greetings from across the pond.
I'd give it a miss Jimmy, has seen its day.
You didnt open the engines to see the corrosion. I am guessing they will have a lot, i am also guessing that airframe is toast. Just a guess seeing how much moisture was inside that cabin.
To me the HU-25 Guardian will always be my favorite USCG aircraft. Shame they retired it in 2014.
Those planes are what we used to call, Blow Birds when I was a cop

Isn't it Embry Riddle?
"Playa aviation" possibly burning man?
Try Elaine Larson at Florida Institute of Technology... her Motorsports company does Jet Dragsters...
This plane looks like was remounted with the original stuf, because it was transformed so it could do its job... and now it is remounted for selling
Jimmy, only “1” of them had afterburners on it.
ME: Hey, you wanna fly to the US? Pablo: On that thing? ME: Yeah...what could possibly go wrong ???
Make a drug dealer themed motor home!
Maybe it's just my bad back speaking, but I think any private aircraft claiming to be a luxury conveyance should at least be big enough to stand up straight in!
Yeah, they only put afterburners on one A/C.
You call that a table ??? this is a table :D
Those Garrett engines would look sweet on the Elvis Jet, not that I'd invest in that propless prop.
I know a guy who calls himself Cody that wants those engines!
No you don't
@ I meant to say I know of a guy.
You need to buy it and put it back in the air. Jimmy’s Jet.
Make your kids a go cart with those engines…they’ll win every race 😂😂😂
s
THANKS A LOT
Bahaha undisclosed....Miguel knows the location....lol seen the jet b4...
Dont buy another "fixer upper", Jimmy. You're gonna need the money to take care of that 421 you're now flying.
This would be a hard drug running sell.

@@maxlever9196 I know. I was at Frankfurt Intl. Airport, Germany, with Federal Express working on DC10s', 747s'.
If you were ever stranded outside the USA trying to get back you would understand the desperation, probably.
Yep, you need that jet. I don't know what will you do with it, but that s.h.t is too cool to let it die, or just sitting in some museum. Or anything else.
$52,000 is what it will cost you to get an annual on that thing.
In a word Cuba is bad...actually unimaginably bad. Be safe in the 421!
Buy it, put a clean bag in your vacuum cleaner, vacuum up every spot, take the bag to Baltimore, make your purchase price back!
the fact it had afterburing jets means mil spec LOL
I love you Jimmy but can we do planes that will fly again instead of these scrap yard planes
Interesting. If can be made airworthy for reasonable price, then you have yourself a jet to rent out and make money in the corporate environment.
That's what a Cuban has to do to get out of communism and there are a lot of people here defending those regimes
If they confiscated any truly valuable and working planes those would be handed off to cronies and "friends" of the DEA.
Jimmy, strip the cabin and use it for your relief work.
I just wish Dave would help contribute to my monthly Plane and Hanger funds since he told me to buy one!🤷🏼
I love Jimmy and this channel...but here lately isn't not about saving aircraft anymore like he started out and maybe that's where this is headed. But after seeing him try to save a lot before and then not doing any makes me wonder....??

How much to get it flying?

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG? then get on the floor mother trucker lol and the rest well Jimmy we cant tell ya lol Australia here lol fix it get it back in the air ??
Hush kit cost more than the plane is worth.
Don’t do it. The Garrett ATF-3 engines mean “Another Turbine Failure”. Those engines are nothing more than scrap.
Is there a website and can anybody buy from it

Fix the leaks gut the seats and I will have us both retired in 1 year doing photography in South America 😂😂😂
whats the price of this aircraft if it was restored to flying condition? Would be cool to see you buy it, get it back to flying condition, and sell it. Would be a million plus though to restore, but I would watch every single video...and I know many others would too.
@@djpmatchbox Atleast 1 Million brother. And mine is conservative estimate. It can snowball to 1.5-2 million dollars 💰 easily.

Please put back flying
Can you convert a jet plane to propeller?
confiscated *from* the department of homeland security?
and is the undisclosed location *in* alaska?
