Listening to this with my dad Tore Thorn right now ❤

Wow - Gary that is incredible!!

Nicely done. Good historical facts evolving to the current day.

Very zen, good job Randy 😊

Great to see old history of the BC Film Industry. Also featured in this movie was a famous RCN Ship the "HMCS Prince David" which was being refitted at CFB Esquimalt. It was one of the three "Prince" ships which had been CNR Passenger Ships on the BC coast.

Ceconite manual says 225 for the first pass, and then 240-250 for the finial pass.

Narrator She Does a most great take Love pace Thank you really great job

Very cool content . Thank you for sharing . I wonder if the nuke was recovered ?

I was there about a decade ago painting that round building when they built it new. I pretty well painted most of it by myself. Driving the road up there was more like 6 hrs of dirt road hell lol. It's quite a remote area and lot's of bears and moose you see almost every day. There's a fossil site near there that I checked out while I was there but I stayed close to my car because of the curious bear in the distance. It was a fun adventure and I still have all the photos.

76 yo BC man here. I vaguely recall this song, or its most famous refrain : "take the Saran wrap back to the kitchen, & use it for cooking instead" while I was a physics undergrad at UBC in Vancouver in the mid/late 1960s. Hugely wonderful to now hear the source recording! God Bless Dr. Claude Shannon for pointing the way !

Am in china but i would wish to visit prince Rupert BC which advise could you give me my 🎉

Amazing!

Thanks for making this video Gary, Linda and Randy. Best wishes dear friend.

Well done

Wonderful

I bought this album because my brother had a 49 ford I have loved 6 cylinder ever since.

interesting presentation. Thank you.

Your creativity, open-heartedness and humour are something Parkinson's cannot take from you. Thank you for sharing this, Gary!

My old road mates... 😎

I saw them in New Denver British Columbia in September 1975 and they were luminous. Shari just killed the Jackson Browne song "Rock me on the Water" and I have carried that performance with me ever since.

Hello, is Larry still involved in the BC Museum of Aviation in Nanaimo?

Wow!

The English wheel is awesome to watch in operation.

Great to see such talented people doing amazing work. When I was involved in the hangers I've met a lot of very fine members.

I saw pullback Classic Air biplane between sonic spy yes I Have nine at my bedroom

Good to hear this again. I was one of the engineers and producers on this album. Dan Smith's solo at the end is still great.

Hi from UK, many thanks for making the time to give us an update. Grand to see the progress and good luck to you all.

Any updates?

I remember them from the old days at the Yale, great band! Can you post the whole record?

I'm the base players son - Does anyone know where we can get the rest of the album? anyone found it on the web?

Great work leading this conversation dad. Telling the stories of our aviators during WW2 is a wonderful way to pay tribute to their wartime efforts.

Are you guy's in touch with the lads at East Kirkby in the UK? Contact Andrew Panton as they are restoring NX6`` t flight and are also restoring the wings from NX644 as well.

Cool.... I wrote this tune and played two of the mandolins!!!!! Lot of clams but good energy. Sweet. John Glover

Thank you for sharing your talent and light Randy!

I love it! I am diagnosed with YOPD last year its a struggle everyday

Thank you for having the courage to share your story Gary … sending positive healing thoughts and vibes your way …. Life can be so cruel at times … hugs of support Cheryl ( a retired critical care nurse and friend to Randy … via our volunteer work at Aviation Museum )

I feel your pain, I was diagnosed 7 years ago at the age of 44.its a horrible disease that's very quickly sucking the life out of me, very little help here in the UK. Can't do any of the things ii used to enjoy any more.

My cousin flew Hurricanes out of Pat Bay. 135 Bull Dog Squadron.

Super to see you guys at work. Such skill and dedication. Many thanks.

Geoff Muldaur is the finest blues singer EVER.

I saw these guys in Shelbourne ON in the summer of '78. I got this record and they all autographed it. Still have it.

Re firewall repair, watch out for the asbestos liner between the skin and also on the exhaust shrouds if you have them

kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWaUn6F7qa-gY5Y see Neville Wheeldon’s video’ s of the restoration of “just Jane “ at East Kirkby Lincolnshire. They could be a good source of info for you all and possibly save you many hours in labour. Good luck with all your restoration efforts.

Has any of your crew found the pencilled notes and a crew list in left side the nose yet? In the tail section on the top right side near the sono buoy operator's station about the 2 o'clock level, there is a note regarding Exercise Nimblebat II from February 1962. It describes exactly how cold it was and asks why they were there but probably no one cares. Keep an eye out for them if you haven't seen them. They should be preserved as part of FM 104's history. Don't suppose you also received the big 1964 Toronto Star article with pictures on the retirement of Lancaster from RCAF service at Downsview or the 2 models of FM104 as built and in her final paint scheme plus the RCAF Lancaster Ground Handling manual from TAM when you received her?

Your cylinder liner puller is a good solid job, however after using this type of tool in my work, I would suggest replacing the two hardened steel thrust washers with a ball thrust washer, you will find the difference is well worth the change.

My understanding was that the bid for the aircraft was based on a restoration to flight with support from Victoria Maintenance. Seems that may no longer be the case. Listening to some of the comments in the video, there appears to be uncertainty. I think the museum should step back and decide what they want to achieve before committing money and time because it's pointless spending both on patching up structure that would need replacing for an airworthy aircraft. First thing on my list would be the undercarriage beams. Without a sound pair of those, she'll never fly. Hats off to the team working on her but no one seems to know what the end game is.

Any thoughts about chatting with the nice folks at the museum in Trenton ontario.

I assume that you are in touch with the people at Just Jane restoration. They are taking her back to air worthy and are much further down the track. My thinking is that they may have solved problems that you are yet to meet plus they are likely to be able to point you toward companies that have made different parts for them and have the tooling to be able to repeat the process.

Thank you. This clip has been a life saver. I am resizing an aluminum window frame and some of the stainless screws had corroded in and had to have their heads drilled off to get it apart. was not looking forward to drilling them our when one of your people mentioned that aluminum has a greater expansion rate than steel so nothing to lose I pored boiling water over the stuck ends and it worked. screws out happy boy!!

I thought the whole point of this restoration was to get her flying again?
