A video about helping people build an airplane. Pretty incredible really. Thanks for getting to the point and not making it all about yourself

Beautiful View!!! 😇

He is having a hell of a Good Time.😂

I am the new, and very proud, owner of Yellow Bird! The workmanship is excellent and the aircraft design is better than I imagined. John and Valerie are the most exceptional hosts and John is a great pilot. I am honored to be a member of the “Excalibur Family”. Tom Karr is like an uncle who is always available for information and help.

Thank you, Tom. I'm gonna buy an Excalibur kit in a year or two. Gotta save up the cash. I love this plane.

what kind of adhesive is that?

I wonder how many miles he flew to get home?

A tip, drill a hole, deburr, cleco. drill the rest. deburr, cleco and rivet. You can never have enough clecos! A little patience. Do it right!

So, don't de-bur the holes after drilling, don't remove any metal shavings that are potentially between the mating pieces, don't use a cleco after drilling the first hole to hold the piece in place to get your next holes more accurate. Noted! Yea don't follow this guy's advice, you'll wind up dead from your wing rib attach points developing fatigue and stress cracks over time. Very good example of poor craftsmanship!

Wow can l do to

Wow very nice

I Love how its called Brand X and it's name is on its wing tip LOL. Just for the record I have researched both planes and find the Excalibur to be a much better built and set up airplane then Brand X.

Gene, that experience that you shared will inspire others, including me. Great looking airplane and your enthusiasm about building and flying the aircraft that you built shows through on your video. It appears that you live at an airpark. Curious to where that is.

Please debur all holes, both sides, if you want it to last.

A center punch would help drill bits from walking. The angle method may not always be reliable for some.

Bravo...Bravo. great job. Love your family. Love your video work. When I move down to Lorida Fl to my new lakefront property, guess what I am going to do, come over to Sebring to meet my new neighbors and have you all fix me up with a custom float plane.

hi how can i seap with you ... ?

lol, the faa is going to get her for flying without a license! don't admit to it in public!

Once finished could I leave that covering unpainted and keep it hangared and fly it for a year to make sure it doesn't come apart, then paint it, or does it have to be painted before flying the plane?

I'm not one to armchair quarterback anything. I'm curious why the first hole wasn't cleco'd, so the other hole could be drilled, then deburred? The same for the rib. Watching shavings get trapped under the rivet head doesn't allow for a proper setting of the rivet. Good video overall.

Nice Videos, you should know better than letting a child do this process without a respirator. The glue is 50/50 glue and acetone. Acetone is very toxic. Read the MSDS sheet.

Good job dear girl

Good job children's

Love the color scheme!

All the wrinkles in her tape will show through.

Super! Maybe a few more left to right passes, but just beautiful

Material from alloy 6061 T6?

موفقين

Yeahhhhh, no. :-)

Oh I love this family. It's funny, but when I tell people about wanting to fly something with no doors or no canopy, I always say that when we're dreaming about flying or never dreaming about flying at 30,000 feet inside something, were thinking about flying just above everyone's head in the wide open. That's why I'm going to get an Excalibur

That does look like fun! Subscribing!

Very nice video. Love the one that are build related. Hope there are many more to come.

Incredible....such a beneficial content.

Hola te hablo desde perú quisiera saber donde lo consigo esa tela con el pegamento estoy asiendo un ultra liviano pero me falta la tela y todo ese pegamento creo que en mi país no lo venden si me ayudarías a conseguirlo te lo agradeceria

He’s flaring too early.

Relief cut

And that called a child labour! :)

Awesome! Great job, I can only hope my children can concentrate on a trade so well.

Hmmm child labour in action....? Isn't that illegal ;)

Yeah, it is simple, but it would be also much more beautiful if those blue lines from the marker would not be seen. Such a work done but only a half way because of that ugly marker lines... also... where are the face masks for the kids?

How long did the tape last? Will it need to be replaced every few months?

Hey Brad did this help you gain any air speed ?

What engine is on this Excalibur?

哇，小孩都能做飞机吗？

Thank you for this Great video. The wife and I want to get one soon . We were wondering if Are field was long enough,it 600 feet to the trees. What do you think ?

Really glad to see this. Not sure what age Martin is these days, but he is still in great voice !

Hi, what type of glue are you using?

Can Oratex fabric use for ultralight quicksilver mx2 sprint
