One Of The Fastest Civilian Private Jet l L-29 Viper Super Delfin

We're joined by Pete from Up and Ready Flight Support to talk about the L-29 "Viper". The L-29 Super Delfin was designed in the late 50's and went into service in the 60's. It was a robust and reliable military trainer aircraft. Only one issue though with this fighter jet trainer. It was underpowered. Warbirds of Delaware has since installed engine modifications with the airframe featured. Now, it's one of the fastest airplane ever to race at Reno with a whopping top speed of 544 mph.
L-29 "Viper" Super Delfin Specs:
•Takeoff Roll: 800ft
•Rate of Climb: 7,000ft/min
•Cruise Performance (High Powered): 400+ knots with Fuel Burn of 180 gallons per hour
•Cruise Performance (Low Fuel Consumption): 290+ knots with Fuel Burn of 127 gallons per hour
•Range: 500-900 nautical miles

"It only burns about 120 gals per hour, which is very efficient" Piston pilots: Confused screaming

[@TheCraftedMine]

Jet fuel is about $5.75 / gallon right now For 120 gal / hr, you are paying $690 an hour just to fly let's go brandon

[@leomannpictures]

I've seen this bird many times in Reno and nothing can keep up with her. Little 77 takes the lead right out of the chute and just walks away with it. Every time. Amazing old plane.

[@mr.rogers1019]

Okay... So if I sell my house and most of my personal possessions I can just about afford this... Yes!! Done!

[@homomorphic]

You should be able to create a profitable youtube channel if you owned one that would cover perhaps half the fuel costs.:-)

[@shrijeetshoots663]

THAT'S EVEN CHEAPER THAN A LAMBORGHINI , WHICH GIVES US A SPEED OF ALMOST 220 MPH AFTER IT REACHES ITS FULL POTENTIAL , consider this fact also

[@Flightstar]

That's about half the value of a new Cessna 182, and cheaper than a Carbon cub or Aviat Husky.

[@ryanb9749]

I wish my house was that cheap, these planes cost less than 50k. Lol

[@engi.2]

Can't afford to maintain it

[@classicraceruk1337]

Great video full of interesting information. I knew about the L29 have seen a few. I have never heard of the engine conversion great idea.

[@MaxSupercars]

Great video! Thanx for sharing. Glad to see our plane to be liked in other countries! Greetings from Europe!

[@garrygballard8914]

Wow, Tks Mike for this video.

[@mauricebarlow6198]

Thank you Mojo.

[@reltney20]

You go Pete! Glad to see you got rid of that silly F-18 patch! Can’t wait to see you on the race course again.....behind me...

[@xsifax]

I can't wait to do this!

[@Bossstyles]

I need this in my life!

[@net-twin-de]

If I could buy a small military jet I would want the German Alpha Jet, small and nasty and looks great and has top performance.

[@ChiChi-dy9qi]

What a nifty little aircraft.

[@johnmcnaught7453]

Now that would be fun !

[@dmh20002]

Were you flying at Reno? Looks like pyramid lake and the Stead airport area.

[@HM-wu3gh]

Saw one of these for sale used and it’s not that expensive in comparison to other jet aircraft

[@tracysmith6657]

I bet that was a fun ride

[@bartvenable5066]

Super Cool.

[@Skyes9]

That red one in the background is a former Thunder Delfin display team jet hence the TD tail code !

[@jerrymiller276]

Already painted in Wake Forest Univ colors, too.

[@ThePorridgeGobbler]

A Rolls Royce Viper engine 🤔, that was originally fitted to the Jindivik drone that was used for target practice, also the RAF fitted it to its Hawker Siddley HS125 100 series also known as the Dominie, that engine drinks oil and is incredibly noisy, but surprisingly robust.

[@TILLMANc2]

I love the macchi myself.

[@radimradim5921]

Thank you so much, great video !!! Czech aircraft type "L" are one of the best flying school desk !!! Czech Republic well done and thank you so much for these planes !!! hello from Ukraine!!!

[@josefsoltes8572]

Ukraine is buying a few L-39NG currently, I believe :-)

This right here is what I want.

[@aaronlopez3585]

Slightly used Piper J-3 Cub, yellow available for trade want an L-29 or 39 whichever is more convenient for you. Must include quals. Sounds like a good trade for me.🤔

[@extremerecluse2095]

The Albatross. A pretty aircraft.

[@simplyexisting1125]

Small jets are starting to gain traction now and become more popular now . The subsonex, the Viper jet, and the FLS microjet , and a cri cri jet , unfortunately the rutan dragonfly jet conversion crashed but the pilot only had minor injuries, but there are small jet options out there. These old trainers can really nickel and dime you with out sponsors. But they really do have a lot of history behind them, unfortunately they are still a rich man's toy.

[@gamerx112]

this man managed to still sound like he's talking through a radio without one.

[@stoneyislandranch9783]

How much roughly for an overhaul?

[@stoneyislandranch9783]

Nice

[@calinutza33]

I love to fly , I love to Skydive 🪂 ! Jet fighter flying experience it’s on my bucket list ! Any recommendations ? 🤔😋😜🚀

[@markkravig7410]

Pretty sure that distinction would easily belong to one of the privately owned F-4s or F-5/T-38s.

[@wrenchinator6667]

The distinction of being "one of the fastest civilian private jet"? Seems to me that a distinction like that would belong to a "list" of aircraft. Maybe you have said list?

[@josephc.9520]

Yummy MIGs, the MIG 21 is much faster and easier to get hold of

[@obisvanainobis9950]

I was mildly interested in how much a private aircraft cost to have and got interested in jets... These costs are about to give me a heart attack and I wasn't even dreaming about buying it in the first place lmao

[@superskullmaster]

Demon speed.

[@dankuettel5063]

Maintenance, fuel and storage costs are what many in the comments don’t consider.

[@MrLongboarder87]

I can’t wait for someone to bring a T-38 to Reno.

[@truevegas]

Was this guy eating something during this review? Seems like there's some cullinary sweet or sticky action going on here 🤔😂

[@ashsmitty2244]

I usually fly at around Mach 0.17

[@johncheresna]

Interesting

[@josefsoltes8572]

Czech built, some were sold almost as a scrap.

[@jbfrodsham]

290 knots, 127 gallons per hour. So that’s about $260 per hour, just in fuel. Travel at 537 klm.

[@rickbar123]

I have a Smart Car. It will do 80-85. No rotation needed.

[@Myviewer108]

50k for one of these? And you go and buy a Sling TSI !!!!!

Sorry bro. I carry a Spartan Blades SHF and a Chris Reeve Inkosi. BUT! I wouldn’t mind a Hogue Deka.

[@chriskroeker1889]

7,000 ft/min climb rate is insane.

[@mr.rogers1019]

Yes exactly! as you're passing 10000 ft your stomach is still on the ground. awesome!!

[@bmwlane8834]

I would guess you are exceeding VNE....and G loads?

Remember that kid that always 1 upped you in school? ‘Hey I’ve got a new puppy’ - him, ‘my dad just got a kangaroo’ - that guy was me.

На авито видел в продаже с таким двигателем

[@perrypike90]

Mike, as much I enjoy being introduced to new aircraft, I just have some questions as to why are you posting this stuff when for the last year we have been all waiting for your tsi to get finished. Now that it’s finished and flying, why are you not posting flight videos of your sling? You can go online and put in your tail number and see that it’s been flying fairly regularly. You even did a post showing you mounting all those camera mounts. So when are we going to get to see some serious flight videos of the mojo sling?

[@SethWestmore]

I don't think it is him flying it.

[@VR4Spyder]

@@SethWestmore He's definitely flying it. He even said so in his rant against his disappointed viewers which he calls 'haters'. He has time to play video games and post a full video of it and all this other crap but he says hes been too tired to piece his plane footage together. Absolutely no payoff to all those months following his plane build. He posted an 18 second teaser video but gets mad if anyone complains.

[@SethWestmore]

@@VR4Spyder I did see that video calling where he called us haters. I was so excited watching his build videos. Bummed. Thinks people will just stick around. When he is kind of being a douche.

[@mikkihintikka7273]

so its 0.7 mach? "fast" on propeller aircraft scale maybe..

[@pedromedina7349]

L-39 looks better but this is a great B option

[@Hatredy11]

$100k less and outperforms it in every way. www.warbirdsofdelaware.com/PerformanceComparisonChart/tabid/78/Default.aspx

Dear 1%, please buy these, fly with your grandkids !

[@SethWestmore]

When are you going to fly the plane you just built?!

[@MoonLight-zu6zc]

He now acts like he didnt just finish building a plane

[@SethWestmore]

@@MoonLight-zu6zc It is very strange.

[@efrenrodriguez4329]

Just buy a cheap airline ticket, most airliners cruise at that speed. Just joking. But makes me think how amazing that those huge monsters can attain the speed they do carrying hundreds of thousands of pounds.

[@kevinwelsh7490]

for joy rides? what would a person actually u s e this airplane for?

[@dirtcop11]

I know prop planes that fly faster while burning less than half the fuel burn.

[@shrijeetshoots663]

Please send me the list , I may purchase one

[@dirtcop11]

@@shrijeetshoots663 I should have worded my comment better, he said by throttling it back to 200 Knots you burn 128 gph. I didn't mean to imply that prop planes flew at transonic speeds.

[@buckbuchanan5849]

Helmets NOT going to help out at all, with chin strap not connected. I mean, an HGU-26/P helmet isn’t great for much, other than providing a connect point for an oxygen mask. But, at least connect the chin strap

[@kevg644]

Can't afford 127 gal/hr

[@jaybabe7767]

I would think the mig 29 is faster and there are several civilians in the US that own and fly them. Hell you can even buy one yourself for like 2.5 million

[@EJWash57]

I don't begrudge anyone their Walter Mitty alter-ego fantasies. If you can afford the checkout, why not go for it?

[@tomtierney3812]

People who could afford to purchase, fly and maintain this aircraft, don't watch KZbin videos.

[@KumaBean]

There are people whose sole income is from KZbin who could afford several of those jets, lol

L-29 has a C172 version.

The engine is about 212kg, the aircraft over 2200. Imagine if the aircraft without engine was instead 100kg, which it easily could be. It's a jet powered anvil.

[@larrysouthern5098]

Just get a good flight simulator of this jet...learn its systems.fly it like the devil himself.....and save up enough $$$ for fuel....and take good video so the rest of us poor wanna be jet jocks ..can dream about it!!!!!....class dismissed!!!!!....go fly!!!!🐦🐦🐦
