Love this!! Great video.....very cool trip. Such a pretty airplane. My friend Don Helmick had a 1938 24-K that I got to fly a bit years ago....what a sweet airplane! Luxury!!

I always thought it was one of the most beautiful aircraft designs of all time. It just looked right.

[@DeweyDavenport]

I totally agree. They don't make aircraft like this anymore.

Flying the Fairchild with the ball bearing controls make it such a nice flying airplane. Enjoying this!

Blue and cream is just a great combination. Love the channel

Great video Dewey. The complexity of flying through those mountains is crazy. Loved all the scenery too plus those camera angles in the hangar.

I had a very similar visit in Fort Dodge. Bought my Cherokee 180 just north of Sioux Falls and flew to Fort Dodge late that afternoon. David the airport manager took me to the motel and picked me up the next AM. Continued on to Bowling Green and from there home to north Georgia. The Fairchild is simply beautiful. What a wonderful journey.

Great seeing your videos again. Blue skies!!!

[@DeweyDavenport]

Thanks Abe Ashley. It's nice to get a few video's edited.

[@susanjspaulding]

Great you can fly 🪰 and meet so many FAB people!!

[@kevincollins8014]

Wow those mountains were amazing! It's funny how things like that happens. You guys pull into the middle of nowhere and two guys show up to offer a ride to town. This has been a great adventure thanks for bringing me along with you.

[@DeweyDavenport]

Thanks so much for going along with us.

[@sroc5208]

Iowa is home! Great folk! Speaking from Brazil!

[@dancahill8555]

You have us hanging on like an adventure serial! My first RC model was a Fairchild 24R.

[@markrobinson5109]

Beautiful airplane, enjoyed the video👍

[@Kevin_747]

Love those Rangers, smooth. Might be the camera angle but the whiskey compass mount looks like a head knocker. Thanks for part 2.

[@skybossfg1d]

Haven't been able to fly at all this year yet, the weather here in PA hasn't been too good lately. Thanks for taking us along on your journey. Wish I was there with you.

[@DeweyDavenport]

Glad you liked it.

Hi Dewey Keith here again. Looks like you're out there doing that cool stuff again. To me it seems like you live in your plane. I know you love Flying.

[@DeweyDavenport]

Thanks Keith. I still truly enjoy flying and taking the adventures. I also get to have fun doing other things.

Always enjoying your flights in those rare airplanes. Just curious any remnants at all from the Corona virus? Us old people still waiting for the vaccine the whole process is crazy. Safe travels

[@DeweyDavenport]
