I used to own 77A
I was the owner that pulled out the headliner, cleaned out the corrosion that was under it, painted the metal and installed the shoulder harnesses. I also installed the 8.00 tires and put in the new brakes. The biggest job I did was getting rid of the old carb (a Stromberg) and replacing it with a brand new Marvel-Scheibler. I installed the new Alaska Bushwheels tailwheel and the new springs. I enjoyed owning it, but with a plane that old, it is really being a caretaker
If you zoom in at 10:44 you can see a Beechcraft Starship tucked in a corner outside next to the building! 😍
How did she not respond to this comment?
This is so sick! Congratulations!
omg tucker!
TUCKER!!!
Thank you so much!!! I'm stoked!!
9:10 damn it!!
@@jakeh3144LMAO...If she doesn't fly airplanes, she's not the one
.
This airplane is not ugly! She is beautiful! Congratulations and well done!
I meant it in an endearing way, I promise! 🥰 Lil ugly is so ugly that she's cute! Hahahah. Thank you!
When my roommate Larry and I bought a 1947 Cessna 140 N2123N (with a 170B metal wing!) in 1968, our beautiful little plane was 21 years old, Larry was 20 and I was 24. Many months later, Larry took his private check ride in it, and I took my commercial. There was just enough room behind the seat for an ice chest and two sleeping bags. Oh, the stories! I hope you enjoy your 140 as much as we enjoyed ours.
Truly one of the best RUclipsrs in the aviation community. Congratulations on the new plane.
Congratulations, Stevie! We are so excited for you and cannot wait to partner with you to make your 140 a piece of flying art!
Thank you so much! I can't wait to show the 140 off with the new paint & interior at OSH this year!
I got my PPL in a Cessna 140A in 1962. That 140A taught me a lot. It made the transition to more than 50 different types of airplanes and gliders easy after my basic training in the 140A. I owned my own Cessna 185 on both floats and wheels for 14 years. I now fly a Cessna L-19 tow plane for my local soaring club. When people tell me they are going to get their pilots license, I suggest they try to find a tail dragger and get at least their first 20 hours in it. The habits you learn in those first 20 hours will serve you well the rest of your flying career. BTW...when I learned to fly they did not call them "tail draggers"...they were "conventional gear" aircraft. To further give away my age...my first 20 hours were in an Aeronca Champ and my first lesson was how to hand prop it! The instructor did not trust me at the controls for starting the engine on the first lesson. Have fun with your "new" bird.
You beat me by a year got my ppl in a 140 in ‘63 .
I got mine in 1959!
Congratulations Stevie! That aircraft has a LOT of ramp appeal honestly. There is something about being the custodian of a vintage aircraft which appeals to a lot of pilots, myself included. Look after that little old lady and she will look after you!
We call those a “strap in and go” bird. No frills. Just fun. Congratulations Stevie. ✈️
That surely won't be the case after a full Garmin avionics and panel upgrade, a new interior and a new paint job! I believe she paid $33K for it and the upgrades would probably cost the average Jane Pilot $75-$100K would be my guess. :)
Love Lil Ugly already. Impressive how knowledgeable you are on these planes.
Congratulations, on your new puppy. Look forward to seeing it grow into a beautiful thing of beauty. God bless and keep you, Stevie.
Good for you ! it really does indeed do my heart so much good to see someone so happy about their endeavours as you !
There are genuinely good people in this world and this young lady is certainly one of them rock on
Do you knw what optics is?
Thank for you being transparent on price and process. It’s always helpful to get this information.
Thanks for bringing us along Stevie!
Stevie, you are an amazing person. Keep at it! Stay safe! Keep following your dreams!!!!
Nothing pairs better with a vintage bonanza than a vintage cessna! Love it!
It's nice to be able to find a nice example relatively corrosion and damage free from Bellingham, WA, of an all-metal tailwheel airplane that is older than you are for a reasonable price. 👨✈👩✈
Very fun plane. Be sure to give all your control cables and guides a good first look.🎉
Wow. Congratulations Stevie!! That's an awesome airplane. I can't wait to see the upgrades you give her!!
Congrats Stevie!!!! Super excited to see how your plane comes together!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
The Beechcraft is a great airplane but the little taildragger is incredibly cool. You rock chick!
Congrats!! Welcome to the family, 77A!!!
Bravo pretty Stevie, it's fun to be different. Thanks and happy flying❤
Wow! Great video! Congratulations, Stevie! I look forward to seeing more videos.
When you said videos were coming I did NOT expect a new plane?! Congrats Stevie, can't wait to see all of the avionics after the restoration!
Congratulations!! 120s, 140s, and 170s are great airplanes!! Great videos, keep em coming.
Great VLOG Stevie and you're going to have a blast doing this. I am excited to watch the process. TY
Congrats, Stevei! Love your videos and how passionate you are!
That’s great! You will have loads of fun with this little bird!!!
Love your passion for vintage aircraft. Keep up the good work👍
of course for the Luxury! thanks for the explanations!
Pure stick n’ rudder fun!!!!
Brava, Stevie!!!
Fly strong n safe!
Congratulations on the 'new' plane. Lines on the plane look so clean!
I am glad the 140 found a good home. I look forward to the transformation.
Looking forward to seeing the restoration and upgrades! Looking forward to seeing both aircraft at Oshkosh!
Good for you, Stevie! You're a girl after my own heart with those antique planes. Keep doing you and don't worry about what anyone else thinks. Congrats!!
Congratulations on your success with the airplanes. Wishing you all the best.
Congrats Stevie! This is so cool! Looking forward to seeing the transformation of your 140A!!!
What a charming video! I had a trying and difficult day today and your cheerful enthusiasm has cheered me up no end! It's great to see you soooo happy to have this little 140A - I think it's cute, not ugly - and I look forward to seeing you progress with it. Keep up with the lovely videos!
Stevie you are such an inspiration in the regards to "go live your dream and dream big!" Enjoy!
Congrats Stevie! That's awesome!
Congratulations!!! I am so happy for you!! I am looking forward to seeing the transformation of this airplane as only you know how to do! Looking forward to the videos!
Stevie - PLEASE post updates frequently on this adventure. It will be great to see the progress and the final restoration. How awesome.
Stevie!!! Congratulations! I can’t wait to see how it looks 😊😊
Very cool vintage machine. My old college roommate had an old Cessna, he liked the open views of the landscape you get looking down from above without the wings obstructing. Looking forward to more new videos 77Alpha. 😊
Bless your hearts, fly safe xx
I love it! 1949 was a great year. Congrats Stevie.
Best of luck Stevie, safe flying 👏👍🏻
I love your enthusiasm and passion for aviation. Truly an inspiration for other young women to give flying a go at it. Keep up the good work Stevie!
Congratulations on your new plane..very cool. Look forward to seeing it in Oshkosh
Congratulations! How exciting! 👏🏼👏🏼
Fantastic video. Thank you for all your hard work to be able to afford these opportunities to show us! Especially with the additional content creation it takes.... ga damn. Love it all! Can't wait for the follow up videos + the rest! Thank youuu and congratulation!
Awesome airplane. Just shows no matter what you own you can go anywhere and enjoy aviation like everyone else.
Kudos to you for taking this project on. I watched the Bonanza restoration and I'm looking forward to the 140A story line. Good job...
Congrats!
The right track playing in the background too!
WOW Stevie... That's quite an undertaking! A lil back story... I purchased a Restored Prize Winning 1947 Piper J3 Cub back in June 1986 in Madison Wisconsin, N3461K and gifted to my 30K ATP Dad for his last Fathers Day in 1986. Not my era of aviation, but I managed to get it back to BUF through the CHI TCA sans transponder with a Telex Portable Radio, push to talk switch and my JEP Case belted to the front seat. Remembering Dads Cub Stories from my childhood, I recalled his most relevant comment about "Tail Wheel Pilot's"... Those who have ground looped and those who are about to! Congrats Kiddo and LOOKING FORWARD TO "Lil-Ugly's" transformation ';-) Thanks for sharing!!
An old taildragger. Very cool! Congratulations Stevie!
Congratulations Stevie! I know your future paint job will look great, but I can't help but admire the fabulous patina on your 140A. Beautiful.
Congratulations, Stevie! Can’t wait to see your upcoming content on the 140.
Congrats to the C140A. I learned flying on tailwheel airplanes, but always loved that style. Have lots of fun with it. My instructor always told me that the tailwheel plane is only savely landed, when standing in the hangar.
Congrats Stevie. That's awesome 👍🏻
Congratulations! Have a lot of fun time with her.
You live your dreams. Luv you for it! Thanks for sharing.
i love the cherry red paint! i think it's cute, it looks its age and stands out. happy flying!
A very informative, satisfying, and entertaining video. Thanks, and congratulations!
Stevie, you are so inspiring to all young women everywhere! Your videos are exciting and so much fun to watch! So much fun to watch you travel all over in your airplane! God Bless🙏
Stevie…. Thank you, sharing with us your journeys is priceless, awesome content. Why am I sub since quite some time? I don’t have a PL, but served the Air Force, my wife was a Boeing flightline engineer, I always loved avionics, as a It executive I’ve flown millions of miles. Now this time, you’re giving a old airplane a go and to top it, you bought it in Bellingham. We used to live in Snohomish, WA for over 20 years, I can say, I’ve seen about every corner and in between of this great state. Seeing places I’ve been myself gave me a wave of great memories. So thank you, keep flying and make sure lil’ ugly stays beautiful! Because she is!
First, congrats on the 140A. It’s not ugly; beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Now you will really learn how to fly. As a former 120, 140, 170B, and S-35 owner (all great birds), I might add the the only thing wrong with a Bonanza is that the tailwheel is on the wrong end!
Alright Stevie! You will love the C-140. I grew up flying my fathers C-120 back in the 70s. The 120/140 is a honest flying A/C with good flight characteristics and low fuel burn. I'm sure the guys you have lined up doing the work will check, but make sure to have a close inspection done on the gear box and door post columns. Cracks have been known to form (it is a 70+ year old airplane after all) and those cracks can lead to gear failure on landing, which is not good! The 120/140 Association is a tremendous resource for keeping these old birds flying and great people to boot. Good luck, great choice. Look forward to seeing you and 77 Alpha at AirVenture!
Congratulations Stevie! ❤
ITS FANTASTIC. I love this for you, congratulations!!
Congratulations! I soloed in a 140, N9683) in 1956. At that time the V-tailed Bonanza was considered the Cadillac of light aircraft. I was a skinny senior in high school at the time and I'll never forget the surprise at how quickly she lifted off after my instructor got out and said, "Take her around the pattern". I myself am of 1938 vintage and while I was never considered a luxury model no one ever called me "Lil' Ugly". I felt ultra cool when flying that plane. I noticed in your in-flight shot of the panel the airspeed indicator is hovering just above 80 mph. A little disconcerting to see those trucks on I-5 passing you up. I think you're in for a lot of fun with your new airplane.
Nice plane, congratulations Stevie!
Well done Stevie what a great project. You deserve a little gem like Cess...Take care and keep the videos coming, Love from the UK.
Looking forward to seeing the changes to your new/old Cessna 140A.
Congrats on the tail dragger!!! I had the most fun Flying those and Landing 3 point greasers on grass fields . Cannot wait to see the transformation!!!
First of all, this is a great little piece. So we’ll done. That first song hooked me GOOD! #2, that plane is not ugly, she’s cute and sexy!
#3, it’s so great to see a young person who appreciates older, classic things. Lastly, I MISS CALIFORNIA WEATHER!
Blue skies to you!
Congratulations! Lovely airline with good bones requiring TLC and renovation. Enjoy!
What a cute, fun plane Stevie... love it's definant stance, ha. Have fun.
Hi Stevie. I am soooo happy for you. More power to you and your 140 A .
Ms. Triesenberg, I love your videos even if they are few and far between. Your editing is great, the music is great, and it feels like I'm flying right along with you. This vicarious-living characteristic is something difficult to achieve but you do it well.
You make me want to fly, which is an old, old dream of mine. When I was a young man, I flew in a tail-dragger with a good friend. I got a little time on the yoke, which was quite infectious. But there was never time or money.
Now I'm old and have no idea whether I could pass a flight physical. But, who knows, maybe I'll try. I should do ground school, at least.
Thank you so much for taking us along for the ride.
Just FYI, you need a medical to fly solo and to get your license, BUT you can always fly with an instructor without one. Book a discovery flight and see if the passion reignites.
I am very proud of your accomplishments and how you approach aviation. I soloed in a Beech Debonair, I come from a Beechcraft family. I flown military, commercial (Airline) A-330s and have been in Safety committees for 9 years. I have been watching your videos and I will fly with you anywhere in the world. Your airmanship, your knowledge and your cautious approach to everything as you progress with experience is OUTSTANDING!! Enjoy flying taildraggers, it is the best flying.. Also, enjoy the Bonanza, it is one of the best complex airplanes. Stay safe and trust your instincts!!
Congratulations Stevie. Can’t wait to see the new paint and interior.
WONDERFUL!! What a treat that you are sharing this with us (your battalions of dedicated followers)! :)
My grandfather had a ‘50 version of the A. Of course, with me as a little kid in the 1960s the plane didn’t seem that old. It was just small, slow, and loud, compared to his Bonanza and twin Beech at the time. I never understood why he had it. But he was gone most every summer Sunday afternoon in it from about 1966 until he sold it in about 1969. Congratulations on your purchase.
So fun to have you take on another project, and a very interesting one at that. Looking forward to seeing the 140A restoration!
I can't wait to share the end result!
So excited for you. Enjoy.
Great video! Thx for sharing!
Good Luck with the Cessna 140. My first GA flight was in a RAF Chipmunk!! I flew mostly Cessna and Piper aircraft as a commercial licensed pilot in Maryland and Florida. I enjoy your videos and friendly enthusiasm.
stevie you are living the dream good on you!!!
Sick plane. A great new toy to fly and enjoy. Looking forward to the new vids of it soon.
Congratulations young lady keep up the hard work and your enjoyment of aviation!
From a Cessna 170A owner on a cross country trip, congratulations on your new plane!
I tear up just a little bit every time you call it lil ugly. It’s beautiful! No adhesive from former interior work, no obvious corrosion, clean panel. I’m so glad for you - that’s a cherry 140A.
I’m sure when you’re done with it, it’ll also be cute 🤣
I am so excited! 😃Another project Plane!
Congratulations. Excited to see the results of panel upgrade. And she is definitely not ugly!
Beautiful airplane, Stevie!
I absolutely dislike flying of any kind now that I am an old curmudgeon, but I absolutely love watching Stevie's adventures! Her videos are such a breath of fresh air and the production quality of them is top notch! I cannot help but have a smile on my face for each and every one of her videos. Keep going Stevie, you are an inspiration to tons of young prospective flyers out there, best wishes!
Classic Cessnas look awesome polished with red or blue accent paint....great find Stevie
Terrific video Stevie, from your swing out and stop on your introduction you have the hang of things with the Tail Dragger.
I am looking forward to your next updates…..you promised!
