I love the humor.. "Most girls get a car for their birthday, you get a wrecked airplane..!" I'm really looking forward to the rebuild. Many episodes to come.

[@aeroman1964]

Sarah, you and your sisters, in my opinion, are the luckiest girls in the world.

[@MaggyMay42]

Great Job, Dad on involving your daughters in aviation and the restoration/building process. I wish I would have had that opportunity growing up! Thank you for these videos

[@williamconrad6699]

Pretty cool having a dad with the skills getting his daughters involved in aviation. Enjoy watching the progress.

[@nyxdoc2801]

Wow, that’s awesome. Sarah is beautiful and so lucky to have such awesome dad. We love your videos and you two here in Iran 🇮🇷. Lots of love from here in Iran 🇮🇷 to you in USA 🇺🇸

[@paulmeek537]

Man these are some fortunate kids. Wish I can do something like this for my daughter's in the future

[@jamesdoerr4318]

Your girls are so lucky to have you as a dad. Good on u!

[@skyartrc8286]

That's really cool, when I use to paint these Piper's, among others, we would prep the plane for primmer then after priming, spray the whole airplane white,then strip out paint scheme over the white and go from there.

[@piper0428]

Best wishes on your PPL.

[@jameshiggins5573]

That’s awesome glad to see your daughter is getting her hands dirty on this project she will have a better understanding then most on this plan for sure can’t wait to see the progress we all try to do the best for our kids and you sir have obviously worked hard to get to this point to be able to do this awesome job

[@wgrasqu]

Love these videos with your daughters. Looking forward to the build

[@turks24]

Just discovered these videos you have made on these rebuilds. I visited your business 20 years? or so ago, your dad was still in charge then if I remember correctly. I am in the aviation repair business in Sault Ste. Marie Ontario. Congratulations on getting your family involved in aviation, and in the actual building up of these airplanes that they will use. Such a great valuable experience for them!

[@HighFlight2k2]

Very cool. I look forward to watching the progress. Lucky girls you have there.

[@wp4246]

Glad to see another video. Keep them coming, you guys are doing the GA industry a great service :). plus for your daughters.

[@Winging-it-1000]

Great aircraft! I owned one for a couple of years as my first plane. I flew that thing all over the US and loved it. Had a fantastic useful load and not a bad range. Hope you love it when its done!!!

[@iFlyiRideiRace]

Enjoyed your earlier videos. Keep them coming. Love warriors. Nice trainers.

[@billogrady882]

Boy . . . it must be nice having a dad in the airframe business . . . 😏

[@alanwelch7297]

I'm excited to see this series

[@chrisnedbalek2866]

This is so cool!

[@coltons4436]

That’s awesome!

[@baggerf14]

Great present!!!

[@johnfrancis9668]

What nice Dad

[@MrEndoftheRoadRC]

Any chance we could get a look at the Cessna 150 you overhauled?

[@EyeForKnowledge.]

My dad gave me a six pack and pack of smokes for my 17th. This guy gives his kids airplanes. Must be nice.

[@ronnieandpatriciamackinnon4958]

Hi guys. Wondering, would u have an in-depth vid on removing/ replacing the front windscreen and the glare shield ? That u could share...

[@amtpdb1]

When you replace the skin on the top and bottom, can you do this by just buying bulk aluminum or do you have to purchase replacement parts? Thanks for the videos.

[@cyberpilot10]

In your video you stated you were going to replace the lower spar cap in the carry through spar box. Do you have those cap available for sale? I have a 1970 PA 28 140 in need of a lower spar cap because of corrosion!

[@BEACHYz]

How are things coming along?

[@snc4278]

Did you sleep at all last week? That’s a lot of work to accomplish in such a short amount of time.

[@MassimilianoChiani]

Website is wrong (typo "i")

[@maxwheeler8387]

I got pants and socks for my birthday

[@TheOneLifeRider]

Somehow his hands are telling me that this airplane has what plants crave. It has electrolytes... ;) [Idiocracy movie reference]

[@carlifrancis31]

do another show on the arrow

[@drewhour]

The most my parents ever gave me in my life was $100 lol. Wanna share?

[@terryterry1655]

Floor board repair pls

[@Biscuit3364]

Incontrovertible proof that she is a pilot. "what about an upgraded panel?" congratulations here is your pilots license. No need for a check-ride.

[@lucknercambronne5850]

Bla bla bla

[@emanueldebresser3208]
