That aerobatic comment Bryan, EMOTIONAL DAMAGE!!!

[@johnarmstrong4758]

I told my wife when we bought our Comanche 250, There is no justification for the money this will cost us. We do it because we love airplanes and aviation. By the way were both A&P’s.

[@timadodson]

Great panel tonight, I really liked the combo of "Cessna" John and Brant the "Mortgage Man" Phillips. Coming up on my 3rd annual in a 1964 210 and I hope John's theory for number 3 holds true!!!!

[@GlensHangar]

Just in the time it took to open the hangar door in my first episode - before the pre buy - my hair turned grey!

[@GuardedDragon]

But looking at MVU’s new look, it might have paid off! Can’t wait for the flight videos.

[@stevenhorney7735]

A fun and informative episode with some great guests! Always good to see Bryan back on the show! Thanks!

[@jeffreyconner6087]

😆😆 Bryan looked out at the crowd after that dirty joke at the end like "how much trouble am I in, and am I getting invited back".

[@paratyshow]

✅👍 great interview BrYan and Christy, you two make a great comedy team yet also full of quality information 😂

[@Autocross7]

Owner assist is a great way to learn what you have. If… IF you are mechanically inclined and can understand what you are seeing. If an A&P won’t allow owner assist I personally will go to another A&P. There are a lot of pencil whipped log books out there…

[@stubby4317]

Very interesting. I purchased a plane last year but during the process I had two that I was unsuccessful on. The successful buyers offered more than the asking price and waived the pre-buy. On one I had made a full cash offer. Bryan touched on the market effect and I totally agree! And to John's point, I can afford to put a new motor on it but it's also slower than the warrior. The whole process was less than conventional.

[@patrickheavirland3599]

Hello from Minnesota! I'm moving from an RV6 to a 182. Great info to back up what I was thinking.

[@thebadgerpilot]

This episode is perfect timing as I just decided (for the 37th time) that ownership is right for me! Unfortunately, my wife (for the 37th time) has told me in no uncertain terms that we can’t afford it. Looking forward to lucky number 38!

[@SmittySmithsonite]

Great stuff, guys. Once I found out brand new business jets don't sell for $60k, I bought a paramotor. 😁

[@Mrsournotes]

Really enjoyed the panel discussion. Thanks!

[@timlahr7149]

Thanks !!! I thought I was ready but you managed to scare that out of me !!!

[@oconnorcm]

I appreciate Bryan’s experience & honesty so much.

[@williambutler2177]

Great video, good topic, and great conversation. Almost wish I'd been there to put in my stories of completely contradictory experience with buying my first (and currently only) airplane.

[@kelvinleigh]

Another KZbin pilot that I used to watch bought a Barron and found out at his first annual that the plane had had a wheels up landing. Sadly it wasn't cost effective to do the repairs.

[@FlyChuckyFly]

In the midst of the second annual now. Looking like about 60% of the first. Although probably about 15% of that is "while were here" or non-airworthiness issues that were deferred from last year. Hoping next year is easier and shorter.

[@joshwilliams9122]

Wish you would have covered using Escrow Companies for the transaction and the opinions, pros/cons.

[@TakingOff]

Interesting. Maybe we'll make an episode on the future just about getting a loan etc for buying.

Excellent episode Dan, Christy and Bryan. A lot of great information and advice. Love it all as always. Keep up the great work, and fly safe. 🤘🇺🇸🛩️

[@EmergencyStormPursuit]

Is Millican done? Seems like a lot of controversy around him now.

[@pilotchristy]

Dan is definitely still around, and the only “controversy” surrounding him is over-hyped drama by those who prefer to sensationalize topics.

I’m doing great! Episodes are scheduled months in advance.

Thank you

[@christophergeorge6581]

After watching this pre buy video that was very well done I purchased 5 airpalnes in my days thier was no such thing as a prebuy, bought moony 20A and had first engine failure in the first 45 days, then bought a 1975 twin camache with 1200 hours no problems, then bought Lake 200 again no prebuy or problems, then purchased Senica 1 with very low time engines no problems and last piper aerostar 600a non turbo again no problerms and turned out to be the most reliable aircraft every. Today for sure would now do a prebuy when you consider the hourly cast of Labour and parts you could go end up spending a lot of money. Last the most important comment find a good mechanic, stick with him, and get involved with the maintenece cycle . Of note on those 5 aircraft put on close to 5000 hours with 3000 hours twin Instrument. Now retired from flying. Christopher from Canada

[@susansticazsky9787]

So the 210 guy took off immediately after an annual with 4 people on board and no seatbelts in the back and no insurance? Is that even legal?

[@mattgirgenti3595]

Absolutely. Plane is within annual, and if preflight checks passed, you're good to go. Insurance isn't required. That said, legal and smart are two VERY different things.

[@TakingOff]

The annual was done several weeks before and flown before.

[@mikeryan6277]

@@mattgirgenti3595 seatbelts are required for all passengers during taxi and take off.

[@TheBarzook]

I would add that seat belts in the end is at the discretion of the PIC, not the passengers. Not wise but not illegal.

[@CaptMoo]

One day! ONE DAY!!!... Ill have my own 182 =D

[@TomSmith-kc8mz]

Question, and I don't mean to come across as pretentious: of the 1st year annual is very big and expensive followed by a large year 2 etc why buy that plane? Wouldn't it be wiser to keep looking for a newer plane, less hours etc or is the market flooded with crap and that's really all that's available in the used market?

[@cessnarigging]

Good question. In most cases you are trying to match up the best candidate to fit a set budget at the time. Things like interior, paint, avionics can be accomplished at a later date as finances become available. For example a newer T182 starts around 1/2M. A 182P or Q for a fraction of that cost may fit current mission profile at the time that still performance & capability wise is comparable. All the upgrades can be spread out over time as funding becomes available.

[@ecossearthur]

Boom boom !!

What happened to Dan? Has he been called by DTSB yet?

Would have loved to have been on camera with you all and shared my recent experience with plane purchase and the cost of annual I thought you all went too lightly on a few topics, that you really should have hammered home the point about Reach out to me if your interested in hearing my experience, I would be happy to talk with you about it

A Comanche guru would have to be in his ninetys or early 100’s

[@JustPlaneSilly]

Hahahaha!!!

[@christophergeorge6581]

Well your close now 83 the1965 twin camanche was a wonderful aircraft inexpensive to own and support, the160 HP engine very reliable with low feul burn with cruise at 8000 ft closet 200 mph. Chrkstopher

[@GaryMCurran]

I love this. BrYan is great, but dude, you beat to death that race. Face it, she beat you. If you bought the Comanche as some for of retribution (I know you didn't), then you aren't a quarter of the man I think you are (and you are). So, joke was funny, once. The picture of the Warrior inverted, though, that WAS funny. So, I know you were considering that yellow and green Debonaire. What happened to that deal? How did you end up in the Comanche? Oh, if you're interested, I know where you can find a 1955 310, it just needs a 'little work.' Check out the KZbin channel 'Jimmy's World!' LOL Hope all is going well with the new addition to the family and that your business is doing well.

[@vaillajo]

Christy I'm disappointed, you didn't offer anything about your plane buying experience. You were more interested in making jabs at Bryan and conducting an interview rather than sharing. You have a great deal of information to share and didn't. Take a hint from Dan.

[@pilotchristy]

I’m a little confused about this comment because right around the 15 minute mark I talk about getting a pre-buy done on the Warrior because I bought it in Seattle. Either way, as a host, I try not to focus too much on myself. My goal is to highlight my guests. But I do appreciate the feedback! I’ll keep that in mind in the future. 🙂

[@vaillajo]

Bryan was supposed to be the guest host. As discussed in the interview there's more to it than a prebuy.

[@pilotchristy]

@vaillajo Bryan and I were co-hosting, so I was still a host. Either way, you can’t please everyone! 🤷‍♀️

[@martindurkin5223]

Funny,…like I’m going to take advice from a novice who didn’t even have enough sense to insure his last plane. Get serious

[@jasonburns6411]

Could do without the male co host, otherwise I enjoy the content.

[@tizwicky]

No offense but I can only take Brian in very small doses. He is definitely NOT host material. For that matter he isn't even a good guest. Please no more Brian.

[@pilotchristy]

Bryan is a genuinely nice guy who is trying to add a little humor to a usually humorless topic. I really enjoy our dialog and appreciate the positive things he’s done for our aviation community. ❤️

[@kr6dr]

You don’t know Bryan. You can’t even spell his name! More BrYan!

[@twentyrothmans7308]

@@pilotchristy Some of Bryan's videos had me in tears - and they were the serious ones showing him attempting to land. I found it awkward when you were trying to get a word in and couldn't. Some of the talk here should have been more concise. That said, this channel is great viewing. Thank you.

[@garyrisley9170]

Bryan did fine - the give and take at the beginning was funny and a good hook to lead into a serious discussion. Bryan is not polished, but he does fine.
