What a great looking, timeless design. Piper knew what they were doing with these. Great video to start a snowy Saturday! Thank you for taking us along on the adventure, Rebuild Rescue!
Yep. I worked aviation for 45 years. Mostly structures but avionics and commercial engines also. I'm retired now and we do need the new blood to maintain these wonderful machines.
We recovered a 250 a few years ago that had been hangared unused for over 35 years. We removed the wings for transport. I’m glad we did as when we were reassembling we found major chafing of the fuel lines from the wings to the fuselage as well as evidence of arcing on some of the wiring looms.
The polishing buffer is primed and ready the kroil did its job and the baby started to show signs of life. This will be a monster for the school nice one jason and the RR Crew
@@BrilliantDesignOnline actually you just want to get a ferry permit and leave the gear down during that flight to the A&P school. Let them do the thorough annual inspection That would be the most cost-effective and safest way to its destination.
Yes!!! Another Comanche! Love the paint scheme. Regarding your leaking oil comment, my Comanche doesn’t leak. I swear they’re just so over engineered, they’re the best plane Piper ever made. And of course the Lycoming O-540 is such a great engine.
She sounded so sweet and smooth once you guys fired her up! Very nice Commanche, looking forward to seeing the progress of getting her back in the skies, well done team! 🤙🛩️🦅🪽
It's Saturday and you know what that means Jayson and his craziness...Thanks guys for once again bringing us along for yet another rescue...God Bless and take care
Im a commercial student at the flight school connect to the SFU maintenance school. Really cool to see you going through this plane and looking foward to seeing it show up at the school
Another good candidate for rescue found. I know you have a lot of work just to get it ready for the ferry flight and even more when you get it home, but this looks like a good, solid airframe and powerplant.
@@JohnMckeown-dl2cl I hate to tell you, but they don't want to do a ferry flight, They want to do an annual inspection on the cheap just like they did on the cougar that crashed, they will never learn.
@ had a 15k hour flight instructor tell me once that the worst thing you can do is get to comfortable when flying. Experience breeds complacency and complacency will kill you. Prelim NTSB report said that witnesses and surveillance footage showed that sam didn’t do a fuel check after getting 80 gallons of fuel and he also skipped the engine run up. It takes about 5 minutes to do both and unfortunately it can be deadly if you skip them.
Did you look at the video when they did the annual on the cougar, it appears they never checked if the feathering system on the propellers actually worked and that would cause serious drag if one engine failed, and that's a fact
What a beautiful airplane. It's definitely not a rebuild Rescue plane; there are no nests. I'm sure that paint will buff out. 😜 In all seriousness, thank you for another awesome Saturday morning. Take care everyone. Be safe.
There will be a mouse nest in the belly, below the floor pans. They will nest in one spot and (acidic) pee in another. You will find corrosion, even though there is zinc chromate paint on the aluminum.
Where was the fire extinguisher? I believe in a previous video you absolutely recommended an extinguisher be at the ready when starting an aircraft that had been sitting or had engine work done. This one qualified for both.
I am a retired A&P mechanic. In all probability this aircraft, because of how long it has been out of annual, will need to do a lot of work and at least nearly a complete annual before the FAA would issue a ferry permit. I don’t recall hearing exactly how long it has been out of annual, but it looks like at least a decade or more. It may be cheaper to pull the wings and possibly the horizontal stabilizer and trailer it the 300 miles to the school. Then let them reassemble it.
She's a good airplane."DGA". I learned to pilot/fly light aircraft in a Cherokee. A Comanche is faster. A Beauty. I never needed high performance licensing, my hours are all fixed gear, VFR but now I'm genuinely envious. Man you know she will fly like a champion. Really, I love your new airplane. Thanks so much for sharing. J. from Michigan.
yes that was what I used back in the 1972 time frame learning to Fly and some IFR training Hood for private pilot in a Cessna 152 also flight training in Piper Archers in that time frame.
Have a very nice 250 Comanche beside our warrior at nc05. If I ever wanted a complex that’s the one, they’re a nice airplane, good interior room and stable to fly.
I used to be pretty good at LVDC(low voltage direct current). After establishing power, there are three faults you need to look for and understand the difference. An open, a short and a shunt. An open can be either hot or ground but without damage is often a bad ground, a short is always hot to ground, and a shunt is two or more hot wires making contact. If you turn your lights on and your wipers come on too there is a shunt between the two circuts.
Keep "em going! Thanks! I once built flatties, from A50- to GTSIO 541. Except I like the wings on top. These guys should look at my "52 ACME, straight 8, with overhead valves, and licensed in .....?
A tripping breaker is more typically caused by a short to ground causing a circuit overload. A bad ground can in extreme cases cause an overload if arcing, but it won’t normally cause an immediate trip. The rodent damage is much more likely.
I'm confused, why are you going through the expense of an annual inspection when you can check the log books for AD compliance, do a very thorough inspection and engine run up/taxy test and then get a ferry permit to move the aircraft to the A&P school. Then once it's at the A&P school let them do the annual inspection under the supervision of a mechanic with IA privileges. That's how you should approach this project.
A ferry permit requires someone to sign off that all ADs are complied with. That is not going to happen, without extensive work. For instance, there is one on the stabilator torque tube. Good luck getting the stabs off if it has a lot of rust on it. And if the rust is bad enough, say hello to a new tube.
@i.r.wayright1457 Well you don't have to do any work until you actually do the AD check in the log books, maybe that AD has already been complied with? But certainly it's cheaper to do a AD review of the log books then doing a complete annual inspection of the aircraft.
@@i.r.wayright1457 All ADs do not have to be complied with for a ferry permit; only the ones that prohibit flight before compliance. I've done countless ferry permits and sometimes we fly with an open AD.
Dick (last name Lie-see) loved that airplane. Last time I saw him was with it in the hangar probably 20 years ago. Always wondered what happened to it. Glad it’s going to good use.
I'm always curious about the control panels / avionics. With all the requirements / certifications to work on planes, the control panels always look like they were attacked by a 5 year old with a sawsall. Even this one that looks so good has evidence of hacking on it (Top center 41:53 ). Why is that? Is it simply that just because you're an A&P doesn't mean you're a machinist or even a fabricator? Or is it the owners don't care and just want the job done quickly and don't want to spend the money for a nice job?
Blackstone oil analysis did a test a few years ago, you can see it on their website, of old oil in cans. It doesn't go bad. You can always send some in for analysis.
That's soooooo cool !!! I've been working on my Commercial Cert at Nulton Aviation. They are teamed up with SFU, and we are in the same building as the hanger as that short vid you showed. Can't wait to see it at the school. FYI... I'm building a Sonex, and my cowling is getting built using the metal break in the SFU hanger.
Our 1960 Commanche 250 had a "shower of sparks" ignition module through a second set of points in one of the mags that was enabled when you turned to "start". It started on only that system.
Sir you are definitely the eternal optimist... Why would you go through the trouble of a ferry permit if it's going to a a&p school. I would think you would just remove the wings and truck it there. Just my thoughts Good luck.😊
Looks like someone put it up for storage with some oil down in the cylinders for corrosion protection. I've found with cars and a few planes that a dirt floor can be better than concrete with condensation being worse on concrete long term.
Give the old vertical to an A&P school. A great way for students to learn and practice sheet metal skills without making costly mistakes on an actual airframe.
The oil temp didn't look like it was up to spec before the prop was exercised, I've been told that's a big no-no I wonder if they damage the propeller by not letting the oil temp come up to specification?
Q. What kind of "Pilot" has never seen an IFR "Training Hood"?????? Their still available on every on line store for pilot supplies I've ever visited! We have two new ones on hand bought less then a year ago! (Is this a JOKE ?)😅
I really love the paint job and to make it sweet do a great prep work on plane and repaint it the factory paint job with our new paint job with 3 step paint that is fantastic compacted ti the old paint from 60 years ago but they must of had the best paint back then because it has held up really good and in a hanger with dirt floors that lets the moisture coming up from the ground , but has weathered very good and flying it will help get nice dry air all threw the plane and a new set of mags with having electronic advance and you would have to have one old style and one new one and Lycoming has the new style mags .
What? That is an IFR hood for practice during the day light and training for the instrument rating. Now I am a lot older than you two and earned my private in 1974 and am now 80. Shocked you did not know what that was.
The battery box is NOT in perfect condition. There may have been a battery left installed over winter and froze up, cracking the case. The corrosion evident at the lower back corner indicates there may be some damage to the belly skins and/or longerons. If that is the case, it might require those lower panels to be removed and damaged parts replaced. BTDT on an Arrow. We got it in time and only had to remove some skins and treat every part that had acid on it with baking soda. The battery boxes are supposed to be sealed and leak proof with drain tubes installed and venting out the belly. Sometimes they corrode off and then you get those white crusty deposits showing up. Bad news.
Hi, i applaud yiu guys for saving these old planes but i dont understand the need to see if it will start. If you're serious about restoring then pull and disassemble the engines otherwise a potentially usable core will grind itself to death with the years of rusted and pitted internal components. Just my two cents😊
Check to see if the avionics bus is powered by a relay. If the relay is bad that would explain why the avionics won’t power up. Got to be something simple there.
That IFR hood brought back memories of 1977 when I took a biannual flight review with Helen, a friend of Charles Lindburg and the Wright Brothers. I had a Bellanca Tripple Tail and she thought I was instrument rated. She started the IFR flight review almost as soon as the wheels left the ground, and I passed. When someone her age, who has been forced down 16 times, and she tells you how to survive you listen. Fortunately I never needed her lesson.
As an A&P that left the industry about 7 years ago, just having people graduate and get their A&Ps isn't going to be enough if you can't make a living in GA. I live in the Rocky Mountain region and the closest A&P job that can support a family is over 100 miles from me, and I don't live in super rural city.
Wow, Collins Microline Nav-750. I used to work on those about 40 years ago before the line got shut down. Hated to see them go as they were engineered really well.
Hi Jason, love the content. I went to University and qualified just as covid struck with a qualification in Aeronautical Engineering at the worst time. now i cannot get into the industry here in the UK and cannot get the sponsorship in the USA. its a big shame.
i acualy know what that black pilot torchure device is. A pilot in training would wear it and fly the plane to make sure he can read the avionics correctly and not have to see the outside to fly most pilots should know how to do that
As the driver, I'd be worried about that mirror and toilet behind me coming forward in the event of a collision. I guess there are a lot of potential missiles like that in a camper.
Absolutely love that vintage red and white paint scheme! So classy!
What a great looking, timeless design. Piper knew what they were doing with these. Great video to start a snowy Saturday! Thank you for taking us along on the adventure, Rebuild Rescue!
Yep. I worked aviation for 45 years. Mostly structures but avionics and commercial engines also. I'm retired now and we do need the new blood to maintain these wonderful machines.
I don't know how the training of new people is done. The people retiring, or who have retired, can get new jobs as teachers of the new blood.
We recovered a 250 a few years ago that had been hangared unused for over 35 years. We removed the wings for transport. I’m glad we did as when we were reassembling we found major chafing of the fuel lines from the wings to the fuselage as well as evidence of arcing on some of the wiring looms.
Yikes. That plane looks pretty crusty. Love seeing you get these old planes up and running again instead of just sitting in hangars.
this looks like an amazing find..... can't wait to see that one up in the air
The polishing buffer is primed and ready the kroil did its job and the baby started to show signs of life. This will be a monster for the school nice one jason and the RR Crew
Done right. Glad you fired it up. Maybe jack it and swing the gear, just to be sure. All things considered, it is in great shape.

I love watching this channel with my son every Saturday morning! I truly hope that when he's older, he's interested in getting his PPL.
It's always good hearing from you Brother. Awesome to have your son watching with you, he'll definitely be inspired from watching 🤣😂
Such a sharp looking Comanche! Those gauges look so good and shows how advanced aviation was in the 60's.
Good job Rebuild Team. I thought it was going to start once the new plugs went in and happy to see it did. Congratulations!
Thank you for the support Jim!

10:44 do they not use those for ifr training anymore? Last time my dad flew was an ifr check ride in the 90's and he used that.
Another nice find Jason. Looks like you will have a good one there, provided the wiring damage is not extensive.
This thing could be turned into a beauty! The Comanche 250 is where it's at. And hey, the 260, 260B and 260C are nice too.
Beautiful little aircraft, well done fella’s and can’t wait till it’s in the air again ✈️🇦🇺
Where was the fire extinguisher? I believe in a previous video you absolutely recommended an extinguisher be at the ready when starting an aircraft that had been sitting or had engine work done. This one qualified for both.
I was just going to ask this. A fuel leak or electrical fire and the airplane could go up in flames and be a total loss.

Love your channel!! Suggestion: Use an iPad instead of an iPhone when you’re scoping the cylinders so that we as the viewers have a better picture.
Thanks for the tip! Great idea

Wow, Collins Microline Nav-750. I used to work on those about 40 years ago before the line got shut down. Hated to see them go as they were engineered really well.
Do they have the .25 frequencies?
@ don’t recall that they did.
I have a 1959 DeSoto Fireflite that's red and white and this aircraft would be a perfect match for it.
WOW 😮. Get the electrical issue tracked down and you’ve got a good candidate there. That’s way cool. Check out the brakes and take off.
great video
Thank you for watching
When did this guy become an aviation expert? Im pretty sure hes a handy man?
Have you checked the status of the AD on the stabilator horn? (AD 2012-17-06). It's pretty involved and requires removal of the stabilizers.
Hi Jason, love the content. I went to University and qualified just as covid struck with a qualification in Aeronautical Engineering at the worst time. now i cannot get into the industry here in the UK and cannot get the sponsorship in the USA. its a big shame.
How she goin ehhh boys 💪💪
The question is does it have chrome cylinders ? If they are you have the best of the best .
Not "Groundhog Day," but "Caddie Shack."
After working on old snowmobiles, not as intimidated as I once was.
Great rescue Jason, stay safe!!!
Have a good weekend. Thank you for supporting us!
i acualy know what that black pilot torchure device is. A pilot in training would wear it and fly the plane to make sure he can read the avionics correctly and not have to see the outside to fly most pilots should know how to do that
Hopefully the cam and lifters are rust free.
Great video✈️
Glad you enjoyed it!
Those toggle switchs like to come apart inside the dash
That isa great aeroplane, nice 'find'

Dear Mr. Morrison,
Hope this Piper Chatokee 250 will fly

That GNS should be turned ON by that small top left volume knob i think. Not the dual bottom one for freq dialing.
