You all have been an integral part of my Saturday morning since the first 401 video. You were my inspiration to begin my aviation journey. My son loves watching with me every Saturday morning! Thank you for inspiring the GA community!

[@rebuildrescue]

That's awesome to hear Brother! Thank you for letting us be apart of your weekends!

[@theafricanflyer]

The TB20 is an awesome aircraft. Really hope you enjoy every bit of it. Nicely done.

[@Gstation9]

Good stuff. God speed. More videos. Keep me enthused - Thanks ~

[@dougpartington1843]

Great video, enjoy the detail you show in the rebuild process. Finding affordable parts for these old airplanes is one of the biggest challenges of owning an airplane

[@rebuildrescue]

We appreciate that Doug, thank you👍🏻

[@hilandwatts3527]

I'm eager to see you complete a project and see one of these planes fly again.

[@sebastianhabeichauch3254]

Cool that it’s going in with the Tobago , do not forget the 401

[@ShawnPossible]

Making huge progress. Loving this TB20. Wishing you all the best and whoever might need to hear this... You got this. Don't let life get you down. You are awesome because you are you.

[@rebuildrescue]

Thank you Shawn!

[@zapb42]

I need to get caught up on the last couple of videos, my schedule is crazy and I keep missing them when they come out! As I commented before, I have a lot of time in this particular airplane from back before it got parked, tons of great memories, so it is absolutely amazing to see someone taking such care to rehab her. I have an item you might want if you want to get in touch. Shot y'all an email a little while back. Anyways great job and can't wait to see more!

[@dgmills5351]

I was happy to see the 401 and Sam's name at the pilots Window! 😇 How is the boat coming along? The last update I got was the engines were being pulled and sent for rebuild!

[@Bluoranges]

Just as my head was screaming "What are you doing with that hammer!!!!!" you intervened 🤣 Really excited to see 401 parts arriving, can't wait to see it in build again.

[@Airline_Pilot]

I really hope, the work on the 401 goes on some day… as there has been nothing done for months and months… we really hope that Sam gets it to see it done and flying in his element, where he is allready waiting for you to carry you through the clouds.

[@renataavgeri1132]

It's been said again and again that most of the work the 401 needs now is time consuming: waiting for parts, paperwork etc. Better leave them do it correctly in the time needed than put pressure on them to make videos about it. Their safety is more important than our entertainment

[@jerrywilcox9890]

It will get done when it gets done.there is know hurry to get it done.

[@renataavgeri1132]

@jerrywilcox9890 exactly what im saying. Some things need their time to get done correctly

[@anthonyivy1305]

What scares me is someone calling themselves "Airline_Pilot" wanting to rush repairs and ignore the reasons that have been given for the delays...yikes!

[@AllTradesGeorge]

The "months and months" of video releases is actually only a couple of weeks of time. The whole "road trip" series was one day per video, so almost two months of our watching was one week of work. They started on the TB-20 when they got back because they still needed to wait for parts. Everything they've done on the TB-20 has taken a day or two per video... So it may feel like everything came to a screeching halt and the 401 has been collecting dust on the shelf, so to speak, but the reality is, it's only been a couple of weeks that they've been focused on other stuff. And I can understand, even if some of the 401 parts had arrived, wanting to focus on the TB-20. They get the "new" wings on it and it's DONE, and out of the way, they can get it out of the "working" hangar and clear up space. Too bad they've run into another "hurry up and wait" situation on THAT plane...but at least the parts are available, and they don't have to find people who can fabricate them.

[@pkizzle65]

When are we getting an update on the 401?

[@deltasteve1]

I would like to personally thank rebuild rescue for convincing me to never buy an old plane.

[@iamtherealhudson]

Hi guys. Been watching since day one. Would love to see you guys put together a bloopers reel. That'd be a lot of fun to see.

[@madmanmechanic8847]

Just curious why would you not send the rams in to be rebuilt and all new seals? Seems like that would be required on the AD also. I would not put on used rams with old seals on this aircraft while you have it out why not get it done . Safety can not be over done. A gear half way down or up and blown seals is never a good thing .

[@AlteredCarbons]

the one thing i learned from this channel. never buy old planes, no matter how good the deal is unless you got like 300k to drop on things and inspections lol.

[@benmac940]

There's a saying with boats that I'm pretty sure would hold true for planes aswell, there's nothing as expensive as a free boat

[@Seven_Craig]

Good afternoon RR crew! Happy to see another one on this fine Saturday! Take care y’all!

[@robertchalkley6935]

Woohoo my Saturday afternoon sorted

[@shawnhardison431]

When will u been getting back on the 401 Phoenix

[@thorstenpannwitz2345]

What about the idea to close the open hole of the sanding machine or is the plan to sand the Hangar too?

[@v1rotait23]

Very pleased to see you guys have the same Espresso coffee machine as me... 🤣 Yeah, metric works, and trailing link undercarriage... superb!

[@davidkingsley3244]

Decades ago, while I was the Repair Parts Petty Officer in the Engine Room of a Submarine, I remember being able to buy Cases of zip lock bags 4x4, 6x6, 8x8, and 12x12 inch bags to put nuts, bolts and other parts in, when doing a job, and when collecting the needed parts (washers, gaskets, O-rings, etc... ) in preparation for doing a job. - take off one of the inspection covers, drop the screws right into the bag and label the bag with location and a tag indicating the number of parts & if cleaning was necessary, etc... - you've had donor parts for the 401, from the 402. - you're getting donor parts for you TBM 20, from another wing. - if you have "Extra" parts, from these donor planes, imagine how many other people would need parts from/for those planes as well. If you were to take those parts with needed hardware, and stored them, I can believe that there might be a clearing house database, to help owners/mechanics to find some of those parts, from other projects. - whether you wanted to have them inspected & certified before storage, or just left it for the next project runner to do for their project, is your choice.

[@brycestewart3181]

Why is there an "open hole" on the vapor blasting??? I could see dust coming out Yikes !!! Good luck

[@AllTradesGeorge]

It's not dust. It's water.

[@andymourtz]

before you go on check the sealant on the fuel tanks because if there is a leak its pain in the ass to seal again and you may need to open the wing in order to seal it correctly.

[@awash-mg8ce]

I had a great time chatting with you at Sun N Fun and I'm glad I could donate to the 401 project

[@rebuildrescue]

Our favorite part of the channel is meeting you guys! Thank you for all the support, we are lucky to have you apart of the channel👍🏻.

[@need100k]

What 401 project? All I've been seeing is this "dream" project.

[@Dazza-u4c]

@@need100kI was an Aircraft Technician F111 and crew chief Tornado. I said from the outset I said 3 years until the 401 will be finished. Heavy maintenance takes a long time. Waiting for parts takes a long time,

[@need100k]

@@Dazza-u4c - 3 years or not, there is work they can still do right now while waiting.

[@MrPalmguy]

Ive loved airplanes in general, ever since I was a young kid! However, I am 80 now, still enjoying all your episodes emensly, I will never own a real plane mostly because of the high cost of maintenance and all that goes with it. Holy cow, ya almost have to be a millionaire to afford all that, especially if you love the twin engine jobs or a jet. Keep up the fine work and attitudes guys, I always look forward to every new episode. Be safe always from the Philippines.

[@moerudyk790]

Hey Jason! Your whole team is awesome, but Joe is a beast , you are so lucky to have him!!

[@barrywood5357]

You clean and polish you strip and vapour blast yet you always do it with a smile. Nicely done sir looking forward to your smile when you get to finish this beast.. Hows your license going ..... crack on

[@johnreid859]

You guys are doing a great job.

[@RealRickCox]

Glad you're getting all of those AD's taken care of while you're in there. That really adds a ton of value to the airplane - not to mention the improved safety. Can't wait to see the TB20 back in the air again!

[@AllTradesGeorge]

Oh, man...that's gotta be so frustrating, to be so close to being able to finish up the TB-20 and then have to pause for three weeks, waiting on parts for THAT plane, as well. At least you have a solid timetable of when those parts should arrive! I feel for ya...I've got a list of projects at work that are weeks to months behind their original deadlines because we're either waiting on equipment to ship to us or waiting for someone else to finish their project so we can move forward with ours. Once or twice, I can handle...but my list of "on hold" is up to about seven or eight, and at least two of them are big, multi-day projects and not just, "I just need this one part to arrive and it's done." So frustrating!

[@stoyan_vuchev]

Man, I love this channel! You guys became an irreplaceable part of my Saturday routine. Keep up the Great work, stay safe and have an Amazing weekend everyone! Sending a big virtual hug 🫂 ❤️‍🔥

[@shovelchop81bikeralex52]

It still amazes me how much due diligence needs to be done every step of the way (although completely understandable), having been a motorcycle mechanic I can empathise to a certain degree since the failure of parts on motorcycles is far more dangerous to the rider and others than say on a car, anything that can affect the drivetrain at all risks a serious and deadly crash. Fun to see how you get on with metric bolts lol! Being a Harley mechanic in Europe requires tools for both Imperial/US Standard and metric which can get frustrating when you are tired! I also dabble in building air rifles etc.. and some of those use both on the same gun from the factory!!

[@jrw4u]

Love this channel. I have been following Rebuild Rescue since you found the 401. My question to you is.......what is happening to the 401? I am soooo looking forward to see that puppy FLY!!! 🤓🤓

[@AllTradesGeorge]

All this stuff that ISN'T 401-related happened months ago, during a period when they were waiting on parts (a lot of which are being custom-fabricated for them because nobody has those parts in stock anymore). He said that at the start of the "road trip" video series, and again when they started working on the TB-20 wing changeover.

[@justinmorrison8068]

I agree nothing on the 401 for months now Yet you were talking about having it completed last year, starting to think on a ride to nowhere

[@alrad5686]

TB20 should be a fun plane to fly, and eliminating corrosion with the wing replacement just reassures you have a plane that will be flyable for a long time. Keep up the good work.

[@5TINKYMX5]

man i hate seeing all these comments on the 401. These people have never worked in GA, or even worked on a twin cessna. they’re maintenance hogs and the parts have been IMPOSSIBLE to find for the last 20 years. i’ve been a GA mechanic for a couple years and we always have to schedule twin cessnas for a couple months just in case we find something that needs to be replaced. In the off chance you do find the part you needed, it’s going to be an astronomical price because they have ZERO parts support. i had a 421A in for an inspection for over 6 months, where most single engines are in and out within a week if there’s no heavy maintenance required. shoot, even our fleet of PC-12s take a little over a week for inspection. twin cessnas are basically a combination of a mortgage and a child to take care of and keep happy lol. i love them with all my heart (i have one tattooed on my arm) but if you’re not absolutely loaded with cash, it’s going to take FOREVER for even just an annual. Jason, i appreciate all the work you’re doing in showing the world GA work. you inspired me to get back into using my a&p and i can’t thank you enough for it. PS, hopefully we can figure something out with that aerostar at KVGT!!!

Since this is half metric airplane, the hex head screws might be JIS instead of Phillips metric screws. I bought a set of JIS screwdrivers specifically for my Japanese cars. European also has a slightly different spec EN. The specs are interesting, but I generally care about JIS vs. Phillips between my different cars and motorcycles.

[@christophergagliano2051]

@@need100k your comment is appropriate, there is lots they can still do on the 401. For one thing they can replace the screws holding the cabin windows in with rivets. They need to do that because the original design called for rivets and for some reason they actually put in screws. Those screws are wrong because they have the wrong countersink angle and they don't match the dimple skin on the fuselage. Also they could paint the wheel wells. Some of the parts of the wheel well are a green primer, some is gray primer and some parts are painted a finished white top coat. In the aviation industry on this level of sophistication all the parts in the wheel well included in the wheel well should be painted a matterhorn white. Painting the wheel well will make both inspection and cleaning much easier than if the wheel well in components are left in primer. So yes many of us are in agreement that things still can be done on the 401, and it's somewhat disappointing that they're not doing these simple things to shorten the restoration process.

As an A&P, you've simply lost me with too many commercial ads/advertisements, solicitations, etc. This channel no longer interests me anymore. Sorry, I gotta unsubscribe and look somewhere else for aviation content. Like "Rebuild Rescue", "Jimmy's World" has jumped on the commercialization "bandwagon". I completely understand what you're trying to do, and at one time you had a great channel. Now, not so much. Boring and limited technical content. Your channel is beginning to look like the tv presentation of a NASCAR race. You now have a channel of commercials interrupted by some aviation content.

[@stevenholliday8873]

I don't normally correct you guys. But Joe used incorrect terminology on the landing gear. He said he was 'Overhauling' the gear. By definition he is repairing gear. To overhaul the gear it would have to be done to an FAA approved overhaul manual. There would be a lot of dimensional checks, inspections, a list of mandatory replacement parts and an ATP. The maintenance manual is not an overhaul manual. Keep up the good work.
