5 Military Style Airplanes You Can Own As A Civilian

[@chasebelongia1590]

You do realise that you can own any unclassified military aircraft, as long as you do two things. 1. Remove all classified or otherwise protected military equipment. 2. Unless you want to register your aircraft as a destructive device and pay for a $200 tax stamp. Remove the targeting pod and/or weapon stations depending on the aircraft. The only real limiting factor is money.

[@elliotwooley2630]

It's still only $200, which is nothing compared to the price of the plane.

[@geronimo5537]

would love to bring back a plane from a grave yard. some of those rot away in the desert for many decades only to be scrapped.

[@actontreadway1168]

why do gun people always say "tax stamp" and not just "tax" like we say for literally everything else?

[@geronimo5537]

@@actontreadway1168 because in order for something to become legal it literally requires an inked stamp on a piece of paper for their item and an exchange of money to the government for it.

[@actontreadway1168]

@@geronimo5537 That's not why. When you send a letter in the mail they will use an inked stamp to stamp your stamp but you don't say "I got a stamp stamp" to mail the letter. People are just weird and like to make things complicated. Admit it.

I was thinking the same thing. Claiming aerobatic capabilities necessitates a decent g load capability. Just because they look like it, doesn't mean they are capable. Some of these may be no more capable than a C172 for all we know, and the sleek aero design could be simply for speed and distance performance.

[@citysoundfm]

As an LSA these aircraft have to be certified to minimum +4-2 gs here in the USA. If they are certified for aerobatics then it’s +6-3 gs. That’s minimum as per regulation. They may very well be more than those numbers.

Mike, I appreciate that you keep your narrative style geared more toward the non-pilot even as you've worked your way through to become a pilot. These are "military (fighter) style" airplanes because they have tandem seating.

[@w4jle]

You have a habit of saying knots per hour. That is incorrect, a knot already has time integrated, unlike miles that has no time integrated until you specify MPH... Other than that, I enjoy your videos. By the way, if you want to go over 200 knots in comfort get a pressurized Skymaster. $65,000 will get you one with 600ish hour engines and a 20,000 foot cruise altitude. The only plane I enjoyed fly more was a Lear 24.

[@bostonkid1972]

Before doing aerobatics in an aircraft, make sure the engine can do negative g’s. Most engines are not rated for negative g’s and the engine will quit or cause damage when inverted. The RV-8 is only rated when you get the correct engine with inverted systems for fuel and oil. The turbo prop also may or may not be rated for negative g’s also.

[@southjerseysound7340]

It's amazing how much they get from the rotax in a few of them. They're 2/3's or so the performance at a fraction of the cost of other high performance planes. Although if the Diamond is anything like a Super Tucano it's going to be a awesome ride. My friend knows someone with a Shorts Super Tucano and it will leave you speechless. I might be mistaken but I'm pretty sure it's got a 1100hp Garret up front and it's a rocket. I was smiling so much after a little ride it started to hurt. I'd possibly give up sex for one if it came with a unlimited budget to run it lol.

@bojo perez The PC7 is not "maybe" older, it IS older than the tucano. The PC-7 is the father of all modern turbo trainers, PC-9 and Tucano included. (even the T-6 Texan II is a modified PC-9)

[@projektzii6278]

The issue is embraer wanna make a turboprop light aircraft a fighter and i don't think that's well work (It's only an opinion) it terms of speed maneuver attack and intercept. the diamond aircraft is a basic training aircraft for air force not a fighter u have to go through it so you can learn how to handle speed feel the aircraft maneuver, Acrobats and G force

[@rudyrobertson1540]

So it seems like a lot of people ignored the fact that the last aircraft is going to be used as a military trainer. But even if you do ignore that all of these aircraft have bubble canopy’s, highly maneuverable, and two seats with one behind the other. Not to mention some of these aircraft have flight controls that resemble an f16 layout with throttle on the left and flight stick on the right. There’s also the other ones that have a flight stick in between your legs like an f15. It shouldn’t be that incredibly hard for any one to tell that these resemble fighter jets.

[@jeffswartwood2785]

Mike, Enjoyed the video. I like that you’re featuring European ultralights which I think are very advanced and do not get enough coverage here in the US.

I love your videos, but you have one habit that unfortunately sets off my OCD. You keep saying "knots per hour". Knots are nautical miles per hour. It's already 'per hour'. So in my head you keep saying "nautical miles per hour per hour". Just say knots, that's how the word is used.

[@PaulAnthonyDuttonUk]

Chatsu8o So can't be knots per year then? A knot is a measure of distance only. You can record the knot against what ever time scale you choose. Time scales are not implied just commonly inferred.

[@Chatsu8o]

Not to be blut but... No. Knots are specifically defined to be 1 nautical mile PER HOUR. See here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knot_(unit) If you change that, you're changing the very definition of what a knot is. Edit: and it most definitely IS NOT a measure of distance. The "nautical mile" is the measure of distance within a knot. But the knot ties the distance and the time together to form a unit of speed.

But at the same time you have to admit, that "knot" in its original utilization wasn't a distance either. I mean a knot was just a thingy in a line you threw into the water. So even back then they called it knot but instead should have called it "distance between two knots" which obviously seemed a bit too complicated I guess. But today a "knot" in relation to the SI system is well defined and the usage here was wrong.

anglosax100 if there was a p51 for less than 1 million i would probably already have it

[@timothystrickland7278]

Unfortunately, that is an unlikely thing to happen.

[@GaryMCurran]

Erus, I hope you're rich. I mean, REALLY rich.

[@carlwilliams1570]

F1 and Harmon Rockets! RV lines with clipped wings and I/O 540’s! Vertical performance!

[@pricelessppp]

You should visit Kennedy Space Center & take a ride in a F104 star fighter.

[@pappajohndodgybob]

Ah the flying coffin - lovely job!

[@DeoVindice_61-65]

The F104 is one of the sexiest fighter jets imo.

[@mmichaeldonavon]

No, the USAF C-119 was the Flying Coffin (actually Boxcar). Worked on one with the P&W 4360 engines - that's 3,500hp each. Plus, made one Free Fall jump from one over Hondo, Texas. We flew out of Kelly AFB, Tx. without the clam shell door on. Was a fun jump.

What about The yak 52 or the t-6 Texan?

[@rothscliff6086]

Alright, i will buy a retired 747.

[@raymondlanier1112]

I think the last one could definitely be used as a military trainer

[@cacon1239]

NONE OF THESE ARE 'MILITARY' STYLE

[@bobthebuilder101ism]

I think he means 1940 dog fighting aeroplane style xD

[@Kilo-sz4ch]

Cacon 123 "fighter jet" but no "jet" engine 🤔

[@zylerchapman3205]

I think they do. They look like primary trainer aircraft like the T-6 Texan, T-27, and T-35.

[@acarl100]

These all resemble the Brazilian Tucano which is a military pilot trainer ,,, hence military style ...

[@maximilianbeyer9268]

Cacon 123 what about the beechcraft t6 or the pilatus pc9? They are military trainers and light attack aircraft and i think these ultralights look quite similar to them

[@terryduncan5718]

My personal F22 in Corvette orange is being delivered this week thru Amazon prime...

[@64wing]

"Knots per hour," huh?...and you have a private ticket? 🧐

[@liquidleopard4495]

Probably not.

[@SidestickPilot]

64wing yes, I believe he has a private ticket. I’m sure he’s using the term to those who don’t understand what “Knots” are as he typically gives MPH as an example which is rarely used in aviation.

No. Tarragon airplane is being sold as "experimental", but development/design is related with some very minor parts. This is comlpete plane anyway with simply continuous improvement for submodels.

[@firefightergoggie]

"Military style"? Hmm... someone needs to work on their basic aviation knowledge.

[@michaelweston6083]

Wait, for the first one it is an ultralight? Like no license or registration?
