Kicked Out Of My Hangar...Cheapest Twin Engine Airplane In USA

Just seems like a good honest plane. Maybe its older and a little greasy and dented, but definitely sorted. Your ground crew is as much a part of that plane too, they're the real MVP here.

Dang you, Jimmy! After a near lifetime of admiring and living around planes, you have forced me to go to school and get my license. Dad was a navy and Delta pilot, brother has been flying mostly Gulfstreams for 25 years, so I started my formal training in January to at least get a couple ratings before I turn 60 later this year. Watching your channel is expensive!

With all your planes sound like you need to build your own air port with hangers.

Love the sound of small twin engines just sounds cool, Grandfather had a 310 way back, probably the first plane I flew in as a baby in the 60s , thanks for sharing another great video with us

Test pilot Jimmy Day! Every time we fly an aircraft fresh out of maintenance the pilot becomes a test pilot! I practice lots of ground testing to find the pesky problems with aircraft that's been sitting. Vacuum pumps, algae in the fuel lines, tachometer cables, electrical, faulty radio channel selectors and the list goes on & on... Gyros don't like to stand still, and their bearings get flat spots and quit. The more an aircraft is exercised the fewer problems... Cheaper to keep it flying than to let it become a hanger queen. The longer it just sits the more problems develop. Great job guys!

There are motorcycles that put out 300 hp! (at 9000 RPM for 10 seconds at a time). As much as most certified piston aircraft engines are designed in the 1940s, they are designed to put out a large, steady amount of power for extended periods, a very different requirement from road vehicles.

That was one of the smoothest launches I've seen...And to only find one item pre-flight run-up is amazing. There is something to be said about these older aircraft.

I’m loving the frequency of these posts! Keep it up JimmysWorld & Team!

Just a small leak, but not what you want to find just before you hit the ground. Great update. 2x👍

Now there is a man who knows how to lean while on the ground. Most everyone I see leaves it at full rich, which leads to lead fouling of the sparkplugs and massive lead deposits in the cylinders. And I second the thought that you should build your own hanger. You could certainly use the space!

Nice one Jimmy and crew! If you only had one little snag after a major overhaul and maintenance I'd call that a win! ( as long as you catch it before getting in the air lol

It's nice when both flaps deploy and retract in unison.

Good to see you Jimmy good morning

I love these "normal" type videos. Sure, I love when you buy Elvis' Jetstar, and 34 abandoned airplanes in my home state of Texas and all of that, but it's nice seeing a nice non-eventful process of maintaining and getting these birds up in the air. She just started up so easily, it's like she really just wanted to go flying.

I gotcha beat, I’m elbow deep in a Cat 6 diesel marine with a clogged inter cooler and a barely functioning impeller that I’ve had to special order to be made. So far I’ve removed the impeller cover removed the impeller, honed the pump wall replacing the woodruff key in which I’ve had to fabricate replaced the cover without the cover and have flushed the system with barnacle Buster. Let sit for 4 hours with solution in the system and when I reversed flow found some awesome stuff. 4 broken anodes and enough broken pieces of impeller to make one lol. She’s cooling now lol.

I LOVE these old planes!! Always had a slight interest in small planes and aviation but Jimmy has pushed me into seriously considering getting my pilot license. It would be a dream to purchase and rebuild something like this. Love your work Jimmy 👍👍

Jimmy use CHT for mixture settings and speed setting NOT egt... Lol jimmy you should have a pair of brown pants for these test flights 😂

Spectacular thanks for the cockpit tour. I didn’t know that you got it sold. I haven’t seen it in a while on hangar 67. I hope the new owner enjoys her for many years.

Your Elvis jet ( 2 of 200 built by Lockheed between 1957 and 1978)) is 1 of 2 of 3 owned by Elvis The other in Graceland on display with the. Lisa Marie ( Convair 880) Draws 100,000's of visitors a year ($$💰)

Fly high. Success is in store. You have a good crew there.
