Rebuild Rescue Snatches Cheap Abandoned Airplanes Out From Under Us!!

[@rebuildrescue]

So much fun seeing you guys and having some airplane fun 👍🏼

[@JRAviation]

Nice rescue! Can’t wait to do it again!

[@ferebeefamily]

Thanks guys for a collaborative video. 2 great channels.

[@MrJohnBos]

Piper Comanche production stopped after the big flood in Lock Haven, PA in 1972. The tooling and the factory was damaged beyond repair. Comanches were also quite expensive to manufacture. Piper decided to close the Lock Haven factory. They moved to Vero Beach, FL. to build more economical airplanes. Neither the PA-24 nor the PA-30 Twin Comanche were never built again. IMO, they were the best piston engine airplanes Piper ever built.

[@JRAviation]

Too bad, imagine that flood never happened!

[@abdullaal-obaidi833]

my flight school has one but the oleo went out so its been out of service for a couple months now, i would love to fly it for my multi since i have only flown a 172 for my whole training

[@shanesdiy]

It was great to meet you guys and hang out for the afternoon, glad you had a spare airplane and made it up! Sorry I didn't think to offer the Comanches to you guys but hey we still have a 1949 Piper Clipper and a 1952 Piper Pacer if you guys decide to have a go with a tail dragger let me know! 😉

[@moseskelly2886]

I can't express this enough, I get incredibly excited; when I come along each journey with ya'll Jeffrey & Christian!!! This is an amazing opportunity to potentially get to purchase those two Piper Cherokee's. I am most certainly looking forward to seeing the next steps.

[@stephengoossen6060]

what a collab :) thanks for the entertainment guys

[@JRAviation]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@wonderfulworldofWoody]

If you spent as much time looking at the ball as you do the cyl head temps you’d be in balance and flying faster for the same power setting and therefore have better cooling, etc 😂

[@cabdouch]

Some notes: First, you don't lean the mixture for altitude since you have a turbo giving you sea-level air pressure. Secondly, you can leave the throttle all the way forward to take advantage of the Turbo, and just turn back the prop. Thirdly, once you know what your mixture setting is for a given RPM, like you said 80pph, just lean fast to 80pph and tune appropriately. There is no need to slowly twist the knob and relearn where the sweet spot is every time. Fourthly, your left main gear door needs attention as it is not seated properly. If you put the gear down while going fast, the spinning air off the prop will start damaging the left main gear door. While the book says you can put the gear down at 147kts, I always wait until under 120kts and try to even hold out for 100 to 105kts. If you let this go, it is possible the door will bind at some point and you will have a gear failure. Fix it now while it is cheap(ish)

[@TacosTuesdays]

You guys need to get you PPL!

[@skyboy1956]

what for? They are never going to be pilots.

[@jonfelty6063]

Great adventure boys! Thanks for sharing the day! Stay safe out there!

[@kennoway8251]

Glad to see you getting more hands on experience you should be getting close for a check ride !! Keep up the good work

[@ryanthomas2472]

Nowhere close to a check ride. Probably plenty of hours but most are cross country. They're too busy buying and selling to do enough pattern work and maneuvers. They'll have 200 hours by the time they get licensed. And that's cool. We all have our own priorities.

[@MarkSnop]

Keep wishing I was still flying. Watching your videos keeps me inspired to maybe get back into it again one day crossing my fingers.

[@JawanzaBassue]

Get out there! Even if you get up with a CFI for a 1-hr ride or discovery flight. We’re all cheering for you.

[@davidduganne5939]

If you add back pressure as you begin to taxi, you will need a bit less "breakaway" thrust to get rolling. Your nosewheel steering will be lighter feeling, too. When you have airflow across the tail, the elevator starts working right away, takes a little weight off the nosewheel.

[@gawebm]

Hey - full elevator deflection on run-up - does that help with braking??? Been flying for 30 years and never heard of this. Would really like an answer.

[@carstuff4u942]

No, just easier to get to some controls.

[@mesprojects674]

You guys seem to have a better eye for the realistic restorations. I gave up on rebuild rescue given how long they were taking / IMHO some of those planes should have been tossed to the parts bin.

[@JosieTube]

I’ve owned a couple of Comanches. I remember hearing that piper stopped building the Comanches the year. They had the major floods in Lockhaven, Pennsylvania, and they lost most of their tooling.

[@jtkent28]

Just out of curiosity do you not have your PPL yet? Notice you always fly with a CFI and was wondering if that’s just for safety or lack of certification on your part yet. Great channel though definitely enjoy watching the aircraft purchase adventures, keep em coming!

[@thenewyorkaviator]

So glad to have another video from JR aviation to watch!

[@JRAviation]

More to come!

[@i.r.wayright1457]

Correct, Comanche production ceased due to the 1972 tropical storm Agnes flood. 12 feet deep in the hangar I was working in at the time. Also, building it was more labor intensive than the Arrow. (At 18:32) The Right engine on the PA-39 is the LIO-320 the L being the designator for left turning, or counter rotating, the Left engine is the IO-320, which would be found on both sides of a PA-30, non Counter Rotating. Rotation directions are as viewed from the back of the engine looking forward. Clockwise on a standard IO-320 and Counter Clockwise on LIO-320. Piper also experimented with an upgraded version of the PA-39 and built 3 designated PA-40 Arapaho BTW, I knew the test pilot who bailed out of a PA-40 during a test flight. He got it into a flat spin and said (I moved everything that moved and nothing worked.) Later an engineer who was into RC flying built a replica of the PA-40 to test a theory. A pair of strakes were then added to the aft fuselage, on each side above the bend where the bottom of the aft fuselage starts. They stuck out about three inches. Another pilot I knew flew that and said it was a sweet handling plane. One more thing, if you look at the gap between the rudder and fin on a PA-39, there might be an aftermarket seal in there that helps in engine out situations.

[@craigpitts2209]

Helps if you trim the rudder in cruise to centre the ball as well.

[@ohiyesa2328]

What an awseome video. I love this stuff

[@edwardstephens247]

Rock n roll Jason!

[@TheLoweApproach]

Where is the early 210? Can we get some strutted centurion love please? Also a shallower climb 90kts should really help with those temps.

[@terrydaniel9736]

Another fun video. 😊

[@JRAviation]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@whynot5045]

I won't rag on you for density altitude, I just like your videos and here we are!

[@BillWogan]

My uncle (and kind of my dad) used to have a 210L as well. It didn't have main gear doors, nor was it turbocharged, but it was a great airplane and made a lot of great memories. What year is your guys' airplane? Ours was a 1972

[@adriennefoley2906]

Ohhhh CHRISTIAN 😍😍😍

[@P-J-W-777]

Retracting your gear as soon as the wheels leave the ground is an interesting debate, some pilots say you should never do that while others claim it’s best to get the plane clean as soon as possible.

[@bobbymckenzie3202]

[@stevenflattum156]

Time for more videos!!

[@pnuts1649]

Your instructor might have too much tail dragger time. On nose heavy Cessnas you should unload the nose wheel on taxi and start of the take off roll. Just saves wear and tear on the oleo strut.

[@DJPOODLE268]

great video bro

[@JRAviation]

Glad you enjoyed

[@salluparello7297]

Where I live on Long Island there’s an airport called Republic Airport and there are abandoned planes that have been sitting for years never flown but the owners are still paying to keep them parked maybe you guys and rebuild rescue wanna head over to Republic Airport and take a look for yourselves there’s also a WW2 the American AirPower Museum which is located at the airport want to restore this plane but they need someone to put the wings on which no one has done for years so it’s been sitting with tarp all over it in that abandoned section with the abandoned planes for years

[@larryweitzman5163]

Jeff, Your Cirrus battery went dead in a month of non use? It's a bad battery. Some times my V35B (14 volt) sits for three months and it starts in a blade or two, with no issue and a strong crank with no interim charging.

[@larryweitzman5163]

In addition, A good battery should loose no more than 2-4% of its charge in a month.

Thanks for the video, i was born in Phoenix airzona at Samaritan hospital that still stands today under a different name(birthday 07/12/1984)

[@mr.ginnationfunlifestyle3891]

They don’t really care being pilots. You have to understand, for them it’s just youTube business and airplane business. It’s all about money and not the passion to be pilots. Otherwise they would be pilots already. That’s fine, because this is their purpose being online. To see it out of this perspective, nothing to complain about it. I just wonder, why they don’t take the Citation long distance. Yeah, it costs money to run it. The Cirrus is way cheaper. Well there was an awesome Bonanza. Where is this one? They don’t take it either. Strange dudes. The worst plane to take is the Cirrus. So the Cessna 210 makes the run. The show must go on. 😊

[@miloswanson9646]

Too hot to fly in PHX in the summer. Many planes just can't make the power to fly when the heat makes the density altitude too high. That, and if you don't have A/C, ground ops - sitting baking in the 115° heat 🥵 with almost no ventilation... Hard pass! My instructor refuses to fly when it gets above 85° (the wimp 😉 ) I'm still waiting for JR to deliver my '$10,000 Cherokee'...
