The dedication of one bloke building that plane from scratch.
When you opened the cowl, I said, "Is that a Ranger engine?" How cool is that? Kudos to that lady who knew her stuff regarding starting it. Awesome fun buddy!
She's a member of EAA Chapter 35 in San Antonio. A pretty amazing pilot... just a few years ago she took her first ride in an aerobatic airplane, now she regularly competes in regonal competitions; just finished her commercial; took a helicopter ride I think late last year, now getting her helicopter add-on. Regular Young Eagle pilot. Instrument rated.
I was not expecting to see her, and just got an email from her confirming that it was her.
I'm just bummed that Jimmy was in my neck of the woods, and I didn't know it, couldn't get over to rubberneck or photobomb a youtube video.... LOL
That’s exactly what I just said! Look at us airplane nerds freaking out. I love it.
The Tavsrish of airplanes
🤔 Oh really, 😜 well let's see Jimmy get a fighter jet that's been crashed into the ocean flying again... That should be on the same level for him then lol 😆 or the Elvis jet flying... 😂
Tavarish with a side of hoovie
Forsure😂😂
Facts !!!!
No, Tavarish is the Jimmy of cars.
That's a Falconar SAL P51 Mustang 2/3 scale, with a Ranger 6 Cylinder engine. They were plans built. Never available in an actual "kit".
The Mustang you have there is also in a RUclips video tilted "SAL P51D Replica".
Previous owner was Jerry Sides. Check it out , it shows Jerry flying it.
My younger Brother Dan belonged to the EAA. He lived and Breathed airplanes. Lost him in January to covid. I still look
up every time a small plane is overhead of my farm. God I miss him. Always wanted me to go to Oshkosh with him.
Regret not taking the time to be with him. Thank you Jimmy for the great video! Be Safe!
always listen to the lady..especially when it's on how to start an airplane
Bucket list item.........Spend a day working on planes with Jimmy........looks like so much fun.
The P-51 has all ways had a special place in my heart
The P50 looks like it's interior and parts are in better shape then any of your other planes. 😂 atleast they are cleaner and free of dirt and oil.
And spiders 🕷 😬
Looks like it was in a better hangar.
Being Britsh and ex RAF I have to say I'm bias and love the Spitfire and the Hurricane but the P-51 is a thing of beauty . And this little P-50.5 has all that same beauty . Can't wait see this fly and I think this will be the first to sell . That's of cause if don't decide to keep it for yourself . I'm sure you could persuade your better half 😊😊
That's the one I'd keep out of all of them!
five cranks ought to do it. Wow only two did it! You just needed instructions on how to start it. Great work Jimmy! I really like that P-50!
Please keep the p51 Jimmy I really want to see it flying
That lady who showed you how to start it is a LEGEND ! Unsung hero !
HeHe. Yaaaaaa Baaaaaby. You two are GOOOD. Can’t wait to see some of them fly. Mustang, SE5 , Jenny. Oh yes, please.
Jimmy always makes me laugh when he reminds us all the number 1 cause of fatal plane accidents is flying planes that have recently been repaired, exactly what he does every time he buys a plane that's been sat unused for years , gotta love this guy , fly safely Jimmy 👍
YESSSSSS IVE BEEN WAITING SO LONG FOR THIS LITERALLY CHECKING EVERY DAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY I LIVE YOU JIMMY LETS GOIOOOOOOO
This is why i love ❤️ Jimmy's world!!! God bless Jimmy
I kind of feel sorry for the guy who spent 7 years building this thing, and making a pretty good job of it, A. Having to sell it and B. Suffering Jimmy’s sneering tone as he criticises various homebuilt solutions the guy arrived at. Try building a working replica from scratch before trashing another guy’s work.
Ya no kidding. Jimmy could build a plane. It might be great too. But it would take him the rest of his natural life.
Looks like the builder did a great job on your aircraft. This replica is basically a Fairchild Pt-19/26 firewall forward. 200 HP Ranger engine with the oil cooler mounted under the belly. Ranger Engines are smooth running and sound great. Pain in the butt if you have to pull a cylinder since the camshaft and housing have to be removed before you remove a cylinder. I owned a PT-26 for 36 years and did it more than once. I would love to fly this replica P-51! Lucky guy!
JIMMY! I just wanted to say on your most recent video that I did my first solo yesterday. A big thanks to you and your videos for inspiring me to get out there and get my license. Now if I just had a plane 🤔
This Lady knows what she's talking about WTG !!
I remember years ago there was a fibrglass version of the P51 kitplane...it was a lot like building a model airplane or rc plane...That Mustang has a BIG NOSE on it!!
Talk about being a rush to fly.
I would love to see if anybody ever built a P39 Aircobra ( tri gear ) kitplane..that would be very popular to build and fly...
Taildragers..are tricky..
🐦 ..
This is a Ranger engine. Upside down is the normal installation position. A friend had a Fairchild 24 E, the only one flying in the world, and it use the Ranger engine. When rebuilding it they had to use rings from a Cadillac. Likely from the 50's.
Always enjoy watching your videos. Love what you're doing. I'd love to see you fly this one.
I’d definitely keep the mini pony ! 😀
Congrats Jimmy and crew on getting the mini P-51 Mustang running.. sounds great with the 6 cylinder engine..
That’s awesome. Thank you for the increased videos. 👍👍
I love this channel, so much enthusiasm! What a blast!
Thanks. Always enjoy these. Congrats on the starts.
This plane is exciting! Jimmy, I really look forward to seeing this one fly! The P51 is my all time favorite airplane, even a replica is very cool. You always deliver great content and you are getting to do the stuff we all dream of doing. Good job man!
Love the P-50 startup.
So great to see you start it right up. ✈️✈️✈️✈️
As a boy growing up in the farmland of North Central Nebraska we had a neighbor who had turned his big hip roof barn into the Garage Majhal of home Shops. He had been an actual Aircraft Mechanic in WW2 and worked almost exclusively on the Packard Powered Mustangs in England that flew bomber escort missions into Germany during the war. When he came home he poured most of his spare time into building Drag Racing Cars as a Hobby and also did some racing of his own. However it was in the late 60's that I got old enough to drive over and visit him daily after school so naturally I became like the Son he and his wife never could have. They had 3 Daughters that were all married and moved away to both coasts so I kinda got adopted. Anyway he had many old photos of the War and he kept telling me he was one day going to find a Packard /Merlin powered Mustang and buy it ....and he was a man of his word. He wound up buying a Fully Functional Mustang with the Packard Merlin engine from some country in South America, He and his wife flew down and actually got the Plane going and flew it all the way home making stops several places along the way of course to fix leaks, things breaking and what not but they landed on our little country crop duster grass air strip about 10 days after they left home. Then he called my folks and we all went to the airstrip about 9 miles from our home and my folks took his wife home and he had me fly the last little hop from there to their home. It wasnt really a 2 seater but he knew how to modify and move stuff so his little wife or me a 14 yr old skinny kid could ride quite comfortably behind his seat ...see he wasnt very tall either at 5'4" so it all worked out quite well.
I spent the next nearly 2 years helping him rebuild and repair every little tiny piece of that plane and we got it right back to its original shape and colors....she was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen and it ran so good and sounded amazing, there is no mistaking the sound of that 12 cylinder engine under power....man it will vibrate your innards standing 15 feet away from it..He took it to several air shows and flew it frequently then his wife passed from cancer and he seemed to loose all interest in life period. He sold the plane to some collector from Northern California who put it in several movies I was told by his one Daughter who lived out there but as to where its at today I don't have a clue but my name and his and the date we finished its rebuild is inside the cowl in yellow enamel paint.
I wound up being in the will and inherited all the tools and shop equipment from Old Military Metal Lathe to bolt bins...from brass hammers to German and Swiss made measurement devices for measuring bore sizes etc. And every tool and piece of equipment in between that a man could ever want and I treasure them all....they are in my version of his Garage Majhal in my yard....I found out about 6 months later from the lawyer that the Daughters who each got a equal share of the sale of the Mustang had all gotten together had a meeting and took the money from the Mustang sale and even some of their own and pooled it to try and buy the Mustang back from the guy in California because they knew their Dad really wanted me to have it but wanted also to leave his Girls something too, so they decided since they were all quite well off from the sale of the farm and what they had already....that if successful they all voted to buy it back and give it to me believe it or not but the Collector in Cali wouldn't budge even though he was going to make a sizeable profit...he wasn't having any of it. So thats the God's truth of what happened to that Mustang....I've tried many times over the years since to at least track it down but no such luck. Last time I have any verification it still exists out there someplace it had transferred hands 3 times since the Old Man sold it to the guy in California, and then twice to people who have a lawyers office as an address so....what does that tell you.
Crazy story. Awesome guy and one day it’ll show up.
Great content as usual, never a dull video. Thanks guys.
Whoo hooo, been waiting on this one!!
Liking the Airfix Mustang , just the machine for your son :)
Attaway Jimmy, always on top, thanks. Love those p-51s, catch you down the runway Fly Guy❤
NOT a pilot, just a HUGE aviation geek my whole life(67). Jimmy....LOVE your Content, Enthusiasm, and Variety. #CHOPS
Jimmy, you have got to keep that one get rid of all the Cubs and keep this one. It’s like a P 40 but I know you want to keep one of the other ones to train Silas. I would get him a Cessna 180 skyline or some thing you’ve got to keep the P 51B for baby just my thoughts that was awesome. I can’t believe it’s an inverted sex.
Inverted sex ? 😂🤣
Even though not a genuine p51 it is still really cool.
I had a lot of faith in the P 51 mustang I knew it’s gonna start is it is is in a good condition carpet it’s amazing clean a little bit of papa, gas and why she goes awesome job Jimmy😂😂❤🫵🫵🇨🇦
Well done Jimmy from NZ...🎉🎉🎉
I really love the content! I’ve been working on and flying for 40+ years and never get tired of seeing the variety of aircraft you get to play with. Thank you!
Very Cool Jimmy .
Just WoW!!! Just took one crank ! Congrats!!!
Jimmy, you make everything about airplanes exciting! Love your videos!
My grandfather Glen McIntyre he flew jugs in ww2 and a mustang for the marines in Korea. You know what he did.
Man, I'd love to take the mini 51 for a rip!
So cool, watching you just film your mate!!
That's cool as hell, but you couldn't pay me to go up in that. 😆
Interesting homebuilt 2/3 P-51D. Mixture on the right side, throttle on the left... ummmmm... different.
Small fuel leak? Ehhhhh, it'll be fine.
The 2/3 P-51 is definitely an interesting experimental aircraft.
Congratulations Jimmy!
The P50(1) is a beauty, and anyone would be proud to own her imo, great work guys & it shows getting the start sequence right and she fired on 2nd turn but on the 1st correct sequence.
That screenshot cracked me up 😂 You're a dag Jimmy but i love ya mate. Been watching from Melbourne Australia since you had roughly 60k subscribers. Love your content brother.
Been looking forward to this one.
Thumbs up 👍 3 cranks and ready to go 😀
Best one yet..Jimmy..
A few years back I saw a 3/4 spitfire replica with a Jaguar V12 sounded fantastic
Nice little bird. That Ranger engine is a real jewel. I’ve got the same one in a PT19. Always starts easy and are really tough. Way to jimmy!! When are you going to start marketing your collection?
My flight instructor back in the day was a demo pilot for Fighter Escourt Wings and he demoed a Mustang like this for them. It was really neat to see this, it brought back a lot of memories
ask him what kind of powerplant. I remember development stalled on the F.E.W. 67% Mustang due to no suitable powerplant and they wanted an auto conversion. If one ever flew it was most likely with a conventional airplane powerplant and that must have looked hideous fitting that in the available space. Not sure if a customer airplane ever flew from the handful of kits that were delivered.
@@buckmurdock2500 it was powered by a Chevy 350 if I remember correctly
@@buckmurdock2500 I do remember he had to put it down in a field of mesquite trees due to a gear reduction box failure.
i like that your mom came in to tell you how to start your toy plane
Yea... this Is a beautiful plane.. 🤤 If i was gonna keep any out of that lot it would be this one for sure. You're definitely gonna have to fly this one Jimmy. 😅
all you fan boys, Jimmy can't fly it. He's not qualified in taildraggers.
Thank you for the video. Now retired and old areo repair/crash recovery air plane gye, I truly get it. Just could not be far away from aircraft, now no choice. Still got my memories, they can't take that away!
That was so satisfying to see it start😁
P-51 Mustang The Cady of the Sky!!!
What kinda engine is that?? Merlin mini? Thats no fare you had help from professional engine start Lady 😂👍👍👍
Jimmy needs to hire that lady IMMEDIATELY!
Congratulations!
I love y’all’s videos
12:38 that's where the old saying comes from.
Going Balls to the Wall
When they had to jam the tops of the throttle levers (rubber balls) right to the firewall during dogfights
🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 If that was mine, I would put some wheel covers Panels on it. It will make it extra awesome.❤❤❤❤
so cool. cant wait for the next chapter
Yah BOI! Hope we get to see the P-50.66 in flight, maybe with the SE-5a? To quote a friend of mine- "lotta work", good job fellers!
Ol gal knows her stuff
this P-51 is just to darn cool and this is a plane you should keep
Those planes are awesome!! Great job y'all!!!!!
The fuel pump was running fast and that means no fuel, just air. When it slows down you know it is pushing fuel and pressure.
Sweet startup!
For anyone wondering it’s a SAL 2/3 P51 Replica.
Love watching you Jimmy you always brighten up my day keep up the good work 👍👍👍save the 310 👍👍👍👍👍👍
That Airport looks like Hondo Texas...The Woman giving instructions looks familiar too does she have a Pitts Special and Hi 👠..lol
I was gonna send this to her before I realized it was hers...
You made it! Saved the best for last. Congratulations
Well done Jimmy
Nice work!
Saved the best for last. Awesome!
I saw an aircraft backfiring, clinging to the sky and it made me think of Jimmy.
Way cool getting it started!
I love this plane!
Right on Jimmy!
I love it how you keep getting told what to do by the ladies and they're always right! Maybe I should listen to my wife when she tells me to pee sitting down. She obviously knows what's what! Dang
Ahahaha
Love your videos!
That Ranger 6 is an historical time piece.
She will work😮 love your work
Good morning from Minnesota!! Great episode!
Amazing!! Now you should try it in the sky!!
You're such a character. Wanna see a strafing run from this one, bro. Mad props (pun grudgingly allowed.)
I guessed 20 and that still wasn't enough. Congrats
Awesome!
Crazy that jet sat in rosewell for long time would see it all the time
Jimmy you gotta keep the mustang. That thing is so cool!
I am not a pilot or plane guy but your attitude and enthusiasm is great to watch. I love watching your show - thanks for sharing your passion with us.
