  • Thank you to Garmin and Neal Aviation for sponsoring this video!
    Today, we're starting the restoration of my 1949 Cessna 140A! We'll take off from Camarillo, fly through busy Socal airspace, and land at Neal Aviation (www.nealaviation.com/ ) for a panel refresh and Garmin avionics install. The avionics install will add a WAAS GPS, increased radio functionality, an ADS-B traffic display, and a digital attitude indicator and HSI display while keeping the panel vintage. We'll take an inside look at the avionics install process and you'll even get a sneak peek at the new panel!
    In the next video, we'll fly Lil Ugly from Gillespie Field to Santa Maria for new paint and interior at ArtCraft - stay tuned! Thank you for watching!
    All the equipment going into the panel:
    GNC 375 WAAS GPS/Transponder
    GNC 255 Nav/Com
    GI 275 AI, HSI
    WAT Orion 650 & 500 Position/Strobe Lights
    WAT G3 Landing & Taxi Lights
    WAT Orion 360 Beacon
    Route: KCMA KSEE via the Paradise VOR

    With my birth date still being before that of any aircraft you own, it gives me great pleasure to see you trying to keep us "old f@rts" flying!!!! Old and Slow is an everyday thing with me now, I'm sorry to say. (It's extremely frustrating waking up every day with another "challenge" responding with..."This is new." followed immediately by "Dammit!!!" As you mentioned in your pre-flight checklist, things back when I was young were "Very Simple!!!" Thank you for trying to keep vintage aircraft in the air, Stevie!!! And please keep the great videos coming!!!

    Hey Stevie, thanks for another great video! You drew back the curtain a little in this flight, revealing a tiny part of what you do behind the scenes to ensure your flights are safe, smooth and (mostly) run to plan (i.e. your trip plan)! Would you share a little more of this with us in future and show us what goes in to planning a multi-leg flight, such as your one to Oshkosh? I'm sure I and others would benefit from this in our own flying and flight planning.

    I took my tailwheel and high performance at SEE. Always especially fun to see familiar places I haven't seen in many years. Of course always fun to see a younger pilot practice stick, rudder, and tailwheel skills. Enjoy your 140. I remember how much fun the 170 & especially the 15O TD conversion was. Taught me so much!

Your videos are very interesting. I find myself wanting to learn what all this lingo means , I get a lot of it but I want to learn more, and that’s not a good thing with my addictive personality. That was Cool! watching you land and taxi in my neighborhood . Now I regret not going into working on Cessna’s instead of automotive. Oh well Your hobby seems a little bit out of my payroll . Props to you !Keep it up.

    As someone who grew up in the 70's & 80's in the LA basin I am always shocked to see how much the air quality has improved. Back them the only way the air wouldn't be dark brown or orange is if there were Santa Ana winds or after a winter storm.

    I watched this video last in the series of 3 videos and that really had me noticing all the 'old plane' issues with this aircraft. It's really an ugly duckling here and Stevie restores her into a beautiful Swan. In fact the restoration completely transforms the aircraft and resets it back to looking very classic with modern avionics and lighting.

    I actually like the drab gray metal interior. I also love bare metal exteriors (especially when highly polished). I'm sure your choice for the new interior and exterior finishes will be great though, and also be consistent with the classic vintage look of the aircraft. I like the care you're taking to modernize the instrument panel while also maintaining the classic look and feel.
