Stig Shift #11 (Aircraft Maintenance Adventures)

[@StigAviation]

EDIT: Ladies and gentlemen, my apologies I made a few mistakes at the beginning of the Video. The engine with the temperature probe is a CFM56-7B. NOT a -5B. (-5B is on airbus aircraft) also second correction the Air Force 737 is a -700. NOT a -300. my apologies on this.

[@chrisnicholls8636]

No need to apologise Stig it happens, there's still so much to learn from your videos 👍

[@Hugo-v5r]

We are all humans … (I think) we make mistakes.

[@mattg8787]

with air force 1&2 do you check out there plains or is it one of there people do that

[@StigAviation]

Air Force maintenance teams work on those aircraft I believe. I don’t work on those

[@mattg8787]

@StigAviation bummer that would have been cool to look at . . Love the video. I'm more interested in how things tick more then anything for the most part .

[@ashtoneisenga1286]

I just discovered this dude yesterday and he is already one of my favorite aviation KZbinrs ever

[@buzzy4537]

Same

[@Odontomango]

You can even leave your questions in the comments. No matter how many. He will answer them all. Simple or complex. One of my favorite thing I love about this channel.

[@Bigboi1439]

lol same

[@nolimo2593]

Literally same, but more like 3 days or something.

[@MikeHarris1984]

Me too popped up in my feed a few days ago andi can't watch enough! I've learned so much. I fly out many times a year for work and already knew a bunch, but holy crap the knowledge he dumps in each video is awesome.

[@billjones3033]

As a pilot, I wish I could buy you guys a beer every time we cross paths. Sometimes people forget that we're all a team. Maintenance, flight crew, fuelers, catering, dispatch, scheduling, handlers; it takes so many people to get a flight to its destination safely. Thank you for doing what you do, and spreading the word about the importance of our cherished maintenance staff. You rock 🤙

[@StigAviation]

It’s my absolute pleasure, thank you so much for being here Bill. Just like you said it, teamwork makes the dream work 🤙🫡

[@crad1]

That red car was the czinger 21c v max. Has 1250-1350hp, has a top speed of 253mph and 0-60 in 1.9 seconds.

[@StigAviation]

Such a beautiful car, from what I understand that thing is 3-D printed

[@Duvstep910]

@@StigAviation not 3d printed they used AI in it's creation so it has a lot of hollow places because the AI figured out how to save a TON of weight while still making the car extremely strong

I’m glad you liked my car……😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@curtisstom]

I can't quite put my finger on it, but there is something very captivating about your videos. Your love for aviation is so palpable that it's actually contagious. Very fascinating - especially for a complete aviation layman like me. Thank you, and greetings from Germany!

[@StigAviation]

Thank you so much, I’m glad I can share my experiences and my love for Aviation with everyone here.

[@flapjack413]

Thank you for doing what you do. Mechanics are the unsung heroes of the industry, and the reason flying is the safest form of transportation in the world. You guys are just as vital as the pilots flying these things when it comes to keeping them in the air!

[@StigAviation]

Thank you so much for the kind words. And I appreciate you being here.

[@Xerpocalypse_]

As someone who has been interested in Aviation and aerospace technology since I was a child, thank you for making these videos! This kind of perspective is rarely seen, and your passion for what you do really shines through in the things you show us and how you explain them. I really appreciate everything you do, taking whatever opportunity you have to show us fascinating parts of your job. It could be helpful to add a simple disclaimer at the beginning of the videos stating that you are showing a small slice of *many* moving parts and procedures involved in aircraft maintenance, and that it would be impossible to film every single procedure and task. Perhaps something like that will belay the concerns of people in the comments who don't understand how complicated this process can be.

[@Bywater-S]

Heck I was just thinking something the same along those lines. I was thinking something like Stig’s video’s have in someone’s voice saying ladies n gentlemen this is your mechanic speaking and I ask to please buckle up as this new video is about to takeoff! Lol

[@StigAviation]

I absolutely agree, and I will do that in future videos. Thank you so much for the suggestion I really appreciate it.

[@greenbriar07]

That futuristic lookin' red Czinger is a real zinger, heh! But that United 757 with the RB211s stole my heart and blew it across the lot 🤩

[@NovejSpeed3]

I love that! 75 is a special girl ❤

[@bagels377]

I wish American never retired the 757

[@StigAviation]

It’s definitely a beauty, I wish we never got rid of ours.

[@ScrubRadius]

Czinger 21c v vmax is still in testing and not yet released. You were looking at factory test car if I had to guess. Maybe 1 or 2 in the world. That’s the rarest thing you will see this year.

[@C420sailor]

That sounded so so so good

[@igottaspeak]

If we ae watching we aren't bored! Thanks for these behind the scenes up close views of the planes we love.

[@StigAviation]

Thank you so much

[@AtomicPunk51]

Me again, stig i think you are a terrific ambassador to your profession perhaps unwittingly. Speaking for myself only the thoughtfulness put into each episode is outstanding. I like exactly how you do you. I tell you one thing for sure whenever i see an AA flyover head i think stig and his colleagues made that fly. That's my peace

[@StigAviation]

Thank you so much Bob. I’m glad you’re here and I’m glad you’re enjoying this adventure.

The black Lexus is an autonomous car that was @ CES in Las Vegas. Telling by the straps I´d assume the 3 beauties are waiting for a 747-ride back from LAX to LUX. Thanks for another great video.

[@StigAviation]

Very cool, thank you for the information on that Lexus.

757 was the first lady and the 737 was for the stuff she bought; this channel is pure gold.

[@StigAviation]

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@travisrenton9926]

My Father was a DL mechanic in my formative years. Many memories of him driving me around the ramp doing what you are doing here in the videos for me. I sat in many cockpits while he fixed them, or checked on them... Mechanics never left my mind on how important they are to the industry. Thanks for keeping the skies safer!

[@StigAviation]

I’m glad you got to experience that with your father. I’m sure it brings you fond memories. Thank you for being here.

[@worlds_okayest_pilot_421]

PLEASE do a quick section talking about the accessory gearbox and how it operates at different speeds while providing power! I have always wondered how these things work, would love a close-up!

[@ScapoloMichael]

Also the fan gearboxes on the newer engines (seems it'll take decades for them to be available on larger engines) and how small they are for the spectacular amount of power passing through them.

[@StigAviation]

I will try to do that when I get the opportunity

[@Nategreat923]

New viewer here! I currently help deliver the Boeing 787s, after 8 years of building the 777. I'm learning a ton from your stuff, having a fun time along the way! Super awesome of your company to allow you to do this, too. The more technical stuff is really fun to follow along with. Thanks for all you and your coworkers do to keep everyone safe and happy flying around the world.

[@trevorbrewer7906]

Hiya! Just to add on the air/ground switches, the other names used are WOW (Weight On Wheels) or squat switches which tells the aircraft that it’s on the ground or in the air. The B747 classics also had antennas in the nose gear doors, I also learnt something there. Otherwise, you got a great channel going informing the flying public on what goes on behind the scenes after they go home. A lot of people don’t know that such skilled people exist 😊Thank you ❤ 👍

[@StigAviation]

Thank you so much for always adding incredible information. You are awesome Trevor.

[@shezadshah3740]

Good call on the Lexus. It’s definitely an RX model. However it looks like some self driving type model. Like the Waymo cars. It looks like it has some roof mounted sensors/radar that is wrapped up. Probably a tech demo. The Ferrari is probably some rich dude who wanted his car there for the week and just sending it back.

[@StigAviation]

From what I read, the Lexus is some kind of a autonomous vehicle. Self driving technology.

Believe it or not when I worked for Emery worldwide, the mechanics let three of us stay in the belly in the back of the plane while they did a high-power engine, run on the right outboard engine on a DC-8 sadly that same plane crashed two months later here in Sacramento after they lost their COG but the plane was rockin we were in the belly of the plane, cracking up it was crazy.. another wonderful video Stig love it and the c-40’s are 700’s

[@Relics_tv]

The C-40's fly into KGON a lot as well as B757's (AKA C-32). I got a video on my youtube of one landing a few weeks ago. They are modified B737-700's with fuel tank modifications to carry more fuel as well as UARRSI for in-flight refueling. It has a modified communications suite as well as military communication equipment like SATCOM, TACAN's, etc. They also have the short field operations upgrade kit applied. They also are equipped with a RWR and CMS system in case they are engaged in hostile combat and can get out of the area and defend itself.

[@StigAviation]

Thank you so much for the incredible information. Much appreciated. And thank you for correcting me on the 737 model.

[@StigAviation]

Thank you so much for the kind words Jack, I’m glad I can show and teach and at the same time Also learn.

[@CMDRSweeper]

Blancolirio here on KZbin (American Airlines pilot) calls the 757 the "Muscle jet" because it has just so much power for what it is.

[@StigAviation]

It’s just so much power in that aircraft. It’s literally overpowered.

[@Get_GAPD]

Came to your channel after hearing you interviewed on an AVL podcast. I simply cant get enough of your content. The way you explain things and engage your audience is in the elite tier of KZbinrs. I'm jealous of your love and passion for the work you do. I have learned more about airplanes in your videos than anywhere else on the web. I am in awe as to the scope of the work that you do on the airplane - there is literally nothing you can't do! Absolutely outstanding work, sir. My deepest appreciation.

[@StigAviation]

Thank you so much for the kind and thoughtful words. And it was such a pleasure to sit down and chat with Kev and Rudy. They are awesome people.

[@aadvantagegold5220]

The C-32 (B757-200) carries the VP, First Lady, and other individuals at the high cabinet level (Secretary of State, etc). The C-40C (B737-700 BBJ) is a mobile command center. It contains all sorts of classified communications tech and whatnot. I think this is a C-40C, not a C-40B based on the antenna. Either way, someone important is in town. Probably VP, based on the fact that the C-40 was accompanying. The C-32 is only Air Force Two when the VP is onboard. Sometimes, the C-32 will carry POTUS if the VC-25 can't get to the airport POTUS is travelling to.

[@StigAviation]

Thank you so much for all this wonderful information, and thank you for correcting me on the 737 model number.

[@oubrioko]

Correct. The C-40C served as the press plane

[@KlausEllegaard]

I think your ending comment applies to a lot of jobs, including mine: if we do our jobs right, nobody is going to know we were ever there. But everyone wants us to be there, to make sure everything is safe and taken care of. From an IT guy with a private pilot's license who loves those big airplanes, thank you for showing us your work!

[@StigAviation]

It’s my pleasure Klaus. And I thank you for all the hard work and dedication you put into your work as IT.

[@superskullmaster]

While he is correct about the vortex generator, the way it works is by doing just what the name says. A vortex will stick to the top of the wing in a way that turbulent air won’t, and it has a nice side effect of sucking nearby air into it thus eliminating even more turbulence. It’s most useful during higher angles of attack where the engine especially disturbs the air.

[@StigAviation]

Excellent additional information. Thank you very much sir.

[@delimelone]

Thank you for these videos I love them so much. So much information gathered on so many different aviation and even life topics, a true treasure trove.

[@barrettelango4666]

Hey Stig, it's a good thing KZbin recommended your vids, can't stop watching 😅. Keep up with the awesome vids!! It's awesome that you're showing this part of Aviation, from the eyes of an AME! ❤ Makes me feel proud of what we do and why we do it. ☺️ 9:24 oh, and as for why this Gulfstream G600's thrust reverser is deployed, I did asked some of my pilot friends who do this. They said, that since those engines produce a lot of thrust at idle, in order for them to taxi at a normal speed, they have to ride on brakes, or else those jets taxi fast. Since the engines are higher off the ground (very less likely to ingest FODs) , they'll just deploy 1 reverser, (sometimes both) at idle to zero it's thrust and maintain a slower taxi speed. This just alleviates their need to keep holding on the brake pedals and also, potentially prolonges the brakes' life. Just a share😊.

[@StigAviation]

Absolutely fantastic information my friend. Much appreciated. And as always, thank you for being here Barrett.

Keep up the good studies. You’ll be doing this soon. And don’t hesitate to ask questions. I’m here to help

Yay! This video just made my day a whole lot better! Thank you for sharing this with us

[@StigAviation]

I'm so glad! Mission accomplished 👌

[@thesimcpt6139]

I can’t get enough of these long form videos and it really keeps my dreams for aviation alive! Thanks Stig! Many greetings from Norway!!🇳🇴

[@StigAviation]

Thank you very much, I’m glad you’re enjoying it.

I'm an aeronautical engineer and currently getting a master's in space engineering. During the last year of my undergrad I lost the passion I always had for airplanes (I blame the pandemic and the attitude some professors had). I discovered this channel and all that passion came rushing back, so thank you for putting this high quality content out and being a guy that stops to smell the roses, I identify a lot with that "enjoy every moment attitude"

[@StigAviation]

I am so happy that your passion is reinvigorated and born again. Thank you for being here Daniel.

[@carloscastano2454]

Simply beautiful. You never disappoint in any of your videos. Loved those government airplanes

[@StigAviation]

Glad you enjoyed it

Another great explained video. I never ever saw our Yankee Charly " Sachsen " that close. Who doesn't love the 747 doesn't love aviation. I remember the times when AA operated the A 330-200/300 to LAX. Been on one in 2019 coming from Philadelphia. I guess they're all gone and got replaced by the 787. 👍

[@StigAviation]

Yep, pretty much all of the widebody aircraft will be replaced by the 787 with us. Kind of sad because I would’ve loved to worked on the new 777X.

I love aviation and get to fly a lot for work. I just found this channel last night. What a gem!!

[@StigAviation]

Welcome aboard Andrew. Thank you for watching

[@tnkeerthi143]

Thank you Stig. I am an AME too. I enjoy your videos. It is very nice that your videos are more technically explained. Thanks bro.

[@StigAviation]

Glad you like them! And I’m glad it’s helping.

[@starlight3857]

Thank you for everything you do!! I've only gotten to fly a couple times but I love watching the ground crews work at the airports, and I always try to give FAs and everyone in a yellow vest a thank you or at least a smile while deplaning (pilots get a casual "thanks for the ride" like a friend just gave me a ride home, always makes them laugh). Please keep the videos coming!! Love from SAN! (Also I think your videos need MORE dad jokes, honestly.)

[@StigAviation]

Thank you so much, I appreciate you being here and watching and enjoying. And I will definitely put in more Dad jokes with my silly humor. 😅

[@lloydmorrison5979]

I admit it... I am aircraft "Queer". I absolutely love learning so many things about aircraft anatomy airframe and powerplants. I enjoy your videos and your up beat personality and Positivity. keep it coming.

[@StigAviation]

They are the joy of my life, I love aircraft more than anything else
