Lancair 360 - Cost to Own

[@wastingtimeonthenet]

This channel is criminally under appreciated. The videos are excellent.

[@georgeo162]

Very true! Some of the best content.

Mom mom wake up Complete Walkaround has uploaded a new vid🤩 HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ALL THE MOTHERS OUT THERE🎉🎉

[@Windlassed]

Practically Christmas

[@pandemoniumcrow]

Man I wanna say I MASSIVELY appreciate both the realism, comedy and sarcasm in these videos and the art is incredible! I love the style of these vids and really hope you keep going and get a good following, I’m rooting for ya man!

[@yalyosha]

There was literally a company out there (apparently went under in the past year... they also made de-icing equipment) whose entire sales pitch was "give us a ton of money and we'll replace your lancair wings. The plane will be 15-20 kts slower but the stall characteristics won't be utterly unrecoverable".

[@jeangingras5409]

I assume you mean the LX7 builders? Wasnt aware they were out of business...

[@BannedOnMain]

@@jeangingras5409 they arent bankrupt. Still around. Going to take my IV-P to them for the conversion

[@greatcanadianmoose3965]

Yo I love that sponsorship, nothing crazy, nothing long and annoying. I'm going to check them out just because of how good it was!

[@bushcattom]

Love your graphics. Most people don't realize how much work it takes to create them. But I do! And it's very much appreciated. Love the channel.

[@CompleteWalkaround]

Hey Tom, Do you have an email address where I can reach you? email me at [e-mail] if so. Thanks!

[@TheSpecial4247]

Just because you can doesn't mean you should I've always applied that to all modes of transport 😂 absolutely love the videos 👍🏻

[@salmiakki5638]

@0:48 given the introduction, i immediately thought the prices would vary based mainly on the crash history of the airframe 😂😅

[@groggysword33]

I didn’t realize WairWorthy sponsored you. He’s a great guy, I see him frequently at my FOB.

[@cavemanooga]

I like the ATIS style reading of the commercial airline fatality rate.

[@Deltaglider777]

One of my favorite Walkarounds yet! Your videos just keep getting better and better, love it man!

[@davidclaiborne5280]

I've had at least a couple insurance companies flat out refuse to even quote me on a Lancair. I would say that they paint them all with an unfavorable brush is the kindest way to put it 😂

[@jeangingras5409]

Just bought a 360 two weeks ago, and wrapped up transition training with LOBO. Insurance quote was spot on.

[@nathanlindley]

Man, I've been waiting for this one for a minute!!! Thanks for making it worth the wait!!!

[@nathanlindley]

Same! Love this one!

[@ChuckThree]

Glasair next?

[@bendafyddgillard]

This is a valuable PSA, thank you. Reminded of the Mitsubishi MU-2.

[@Lewthor]

You almost read my mind! I was browsing trade-a-plane and thought hmmm, Lancair 360 lets see a video! Your videos are awesome bud, keep em coming up!!

[@davidbennett3433]

Love your content and whimsical presentation style as always! I dunno... I'm just a humble country engineer, and view error-handling and risk analysis and mitigation as a compulsory part of the design job. A design for human users which inflicts severe penalties on missteps is a not-so-great design in my view. Guess I'll have to stay over here, cowering next to slower, more training wheel-y models. :-)

[@georgeo162]

These stats are scary but I see those severe penalties as a trade off in the design process. While it can do amazing things, an 18yo driver shouldn’t be handed a Carrera GT. If someone isn’t willing to see and manage the risk, they should buy a 172.

[@RichEdwards]

Ooof, some cold water on that daydream. They do look really cool lined up at Oshkosh though.

[@buttonmonkey6845]

You speak the truth, with just the right amount of sarcasm. Another great vid, keep it 😀👋🇬🇧

[@tobberfutooagain2628]

Lancair 320 was so awesome, bought a IV. Best airplanes around…

[@mbmann3892]

Just love the quick humorous videos . Keep them coming

[@HyroAUS]

very good video as always Aeronca 7AC champ next?

[@T3ddyBlair]

Been waiting for this one. Love your content.

[@samuellesage4429]

Hi, I was there since your Beechcraft Bonanza video. I really love your videos. What about the legendary DHC-6 Twin Otter. ;)

[@UncleFester84]

Maybe i missed it but... cost to own a DC-3?

[@HershelPeppers]

Brilliant stuff from this channel!

[@jimmiller5600]

Is it just my memory or do the Lancair accidents seem to include lots of "ATP rated pilot w/zillion hrs. and decades experience" ?

[@seantendick8752]

Do you think you could do a video on the Lycoming 360 powered DA40? Thanks.

[@smacfe]

As mentioned, these are unforgiving airplanes; not only as it relates to pilot performance, but to component performance as well. A minor mechanical issue in a Cherokee or even an RV-8 may be less problematic than in a Lancair. This is important as even outstanding pilots are at greater risk in a Lancair than in an RV, and I know of at least one truly good pilot that was seriously injured when a mechanical issue caused a forced landing and he did everything right.

[@jonasbaine3538]

true statement. some pilots add parachutes.

[@colin5577]

You have to do a mash up with Steve1989. "Let's get this out on a tray. Nice."

[@mistermanti5025]

Would love to see a socata tb20 video made. Also a quite fast plane

[@StinkPickle4000]

Chainsaw, Beartrap and Lanceair... yes sir!

[@thomaswells4976]

"You're qualified to fly that pressurized Lancair IV even before the ink dries on your newly minted private certificate" 🤣 I would love to see a brand new 40 hour PPL step into a Lancair IV-P (not really, because I'm not a fan of fatal accidents!)

[@jonasbaine3538]

Fly it by the numbers. Respect the minimum speeds.

[@tylerhall66]

I feel like unforgiving is dangerous, its kind of like saying, yeah the car is safe it just doesnt have air bags, seatbelts, or brakes

[@Siriussky22]

Hay can you please do a video about the Pietenpol Air Camper

[@touglegame_4814]

Hello! Can you please do Tecnam P2008?

[@Sean-vh8pm]

Great content as always! How is your homebuild coming along, CW?

[@CompleteWalkaround]

I sold it. Big update coming soon

[@bravejango12]

Have any of the ViperJet kits been completed?

[@Vorath81]

If you can build or buy the plane, why can't you build or buy the hours? Isn't that how rich people get fancy airplanes off the ground? ;-p

[@murphyismymantra]

do a yak-52!!!!!

[@JustSomeGuy38790]

Cessna Bird Dog??

[@braincraven]

I got chaps for my chainsaw, i wear them. Chainsaws are unforgiving!

[@worldgamer8266]

hii

[@Joey_Avocado]

Too bad Lancair is a dead company with no hopes of making any kits ever again. RIP Lancair 2020

[@kazansky22]

Yea, I wish someone else would come out and make something fast and slick.

[@guidoalessio3967]

Isn't the evolution vl3 based on the lancair? They also should have made a more powerful GA version which should be exactly like the lancair evo, but don't quote me on that, not 100% sure

[@Joey_Avocado]

@@kazansky22 JMB makes some badass kits. The lancair molds were left out in yhe Uvalde climate and damaged.

[@Datsunz-fr2nw]

104 fatal accidents per 100,000 hours??? Less than every 1000 hours of flight you have the risk of a fatality? That's a bit much. considering the average is 1 out of every 100,000 hours. Great video though!

[@TheOwenMajor]

That's not how statistics work. As described in the video, to a diligent pilot who trains and makes good decisions, the plane is very safe. This is just to say that the aircraft is more dangerous to the "average" pilot.

[@Datsunz-fr2nw]

@@TheOwenMajor Albeit yes that is correct, but it still is 104 times more dangerous than a regular plane. Even if the odds are low and an experienced pilot can beat those odds.

[@TheOwenMajor]

@@Datsunz-fr2nw I don't mean to harp, but you're confusing odds vs. probability, but they aren't the same. What you are describing is odds, like the chance of rolling a certain number on a die. Plane crashes are measured in probability, and probability is modified by a wide range of things. It is not as simple as saying this plane is "104 times more dangerous than a regular plane". This aircraft is more difficult to fly, yes, but more difficult != more dangerous. Put a GA pilot in a jetliner and the crash rate will be horrendous. The reason commercial aviation is safer isn't because the aircraft are inherently less dangerous, it's because the pilots are rigorously trained and regulated.

[@1fujimonk]

@@TheOwenMajor I wholeheartedly second that,, well said!😉

[@coasternut3091]

Once again, being current and being proficient are not the same thing

[@ajmomoho]

Good points, just because your new instrument rating permits you to fly single pilot in minimal IFR conditions, doesn’t mean you should.

[@pigeon4208]

Bring out the Evolution for the next video, keep the Lancair train alive

[@DreamFreeFPV]

Even worse fatal accident per 100,000 hour given how few are flying.

[@bananajib]

This channel keeps improving on perfection.

[@tobiasreichelt888]

I love your videos! Recently I did have a look at a 320 for around 50 k USD. I think this can be one of the best value small GA aircraft out there. When properly trained like you said...

[@SilverScarletSpider]

I’m a big fan of the Lancer Evolution 9 and X. The Lancair Evolution is cool too.

[@julianbrelsford]

Never saw a video with the phrase "not dangerous" repeated this many times. 🥶

[@MesaperProductions]

Just unforgiving.

[@jonasbaine3538]

Imagine a video specifically on the Lancair 4p...

[@kazansky22]

Don't forget that getting replacement parts is somewhere between really hard and impossible.

[@caseyarends3513]

Not that you need more suggestions…but would love to see a North American Navion!

[@ashtonm.3825]

Your humour is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤣

[@notnamend1316]

I want a flying bear trap

[@tfpclips]

wow! I just found this channel. Great drawings, great pace, great idea! Thx

[@markellis6835]

Hilarious! Finally subscribed..shoulda done so ages ago. Any chance of a Tiger Moth review?

[@CdtFabio]

I was just thinking, like yesterday, i hope a lancair video comes out! But, i think i need to have more than 55 hours to my name before I seriously think about one of these.

[@talljake]

I hope some day soon the omnipotent algorithm will shine down on this wonderful channel. Great work as always!

[@ichabodwainwright3918]

Your videos just make me happy, thank you.

It's funny that the RC model Lancair is the best flying model ever.

[@darrylday30]

Fantastic as usual.
