So glad to see a flying doodles vid, it's been a while.

[@musoseven8218]

Love the C180, especially early versions and that's a really nice example of the breed. They're awesome aeroplanes. I bet it sounds superb on the climb out, brutal👍👍😉

[@Kaipeternicolas]

Beautiful airplane. Pretty impressive speed as well.

[@jhaedtler]

Love the 180's. Early ones are lighter and faster. A stock 180 with an O-470 will cruse a true 132 kts burning around 12 gals per hour! And very easy to fly!

[@josesbox9555]

Man I’d love one. Going for the price of gold these days though.

[@truthbomb4775]

The paint is amazing. Shines like a show car.

[@n.leeball3049]

I love how this fellow was willing to make multiple take-offs and landings letting everyone see the versatility of this aircraft. Great Job Bobby! Thank You Kerry!

[@pearceburge9478]

That's a very cool and beautiful bird! Thanks for taking us along Bobby. Glad the channel is back.

[@FrankPace54]

Gorgeous plane & the 360 cam showed it off real nice 🛩️

[@mikentx57]

Very beautiful airplane. Love that paint job and the new cowling for the bigger engine. Also good to see another Flying Doodles video

[@gweckesser]

Nice video about a fantastic aircraft and a very kind pilot. Thank you!!!

[@triskellian]

Very pretty 180! I liked that you guys hopped from airport to airport for a demo flight. A fun way to enjoy some simple flying!

[@ChloeDunIT]

Happy to see an upload, it’s been too damn long! Love this channel

[@leighwelling862]

Great to see you flying again - away from the sailing temptations!!

[@additive8924]

I'm loving the camera work. The right angles at the right times make me feel like I'm part of the aircraft. It is amazing how far the technology has come.

[@pepelepew4117]

Beautiful 180!

[@EarthCamper]

Painting schemes on these small planes are so neat....👍 good to see flying doodle video after so many months .

[@yumario3]

Finally a new episode of flying noodles.

[@bernardanderson3758]

I’m glad I’m back on this channel and this is what I’m looking for one day of flying

[@alexmikhael5061]

bugs on the windscreen had me cleaning my monitor too much lol ;) HAHAHAHAAH awesome ride along THANKS!!! :) I been in a 180 for a few hours :) not a taildragger, and PROLLY wasn't as SPUNKY but, sure was fun when I was a teeeeenager! :)

[@PARTner91]

Beautiful airplane! Wow, super clean. I’d be afraid to do much off-airport work with those wheel fairings though.

[@IkoVenture]

I saw that C180 the other day at Redbird. Beautiful airplane. Definitely stands out on the ramp. Good to see Flying Doodles active.

[@canatolakhoemini6728]

Absolutely gorgeous plane.

[@timothymulholland7905]

My grandfather had one in the late 50s and early 60s in Oregon and Idaho for work. I got to ride with him one time.

[@smokingheadstudiogerman5299]

Cool Man, Cool Plain. Everytime a good Flight :)

[@groggysword33]

You’re back!

[@HavocStylesJoe]

Kerry and thank you!

[@ericfoerster2009]

What a beautiful plane!

[@michaelguy7168]

Beautiful Skywagon.

[@TakingOff]

Oh my... Im in love. I need to find a 180.

[@mctim64]

Beautiful aircraft!

[@johnmccormick175]

What a sweet plane!..love it!

[@JETZcorp]

I love how the 180 looks. I'm normally not into how Cessnas look, but the straight-tails look great and I guess I like them in a taildragger too. I feel like the 180 is exactly the sweet spot for Cessna.

[@cohese]

cool shot starting around 15:00 taking off from the grass field watching the shadow of the plane get small and fast in a hurry

[@stevenwatterson3932]

That is a beautiful plane.

[@FlyingwithRich]

Beautiful Cessna 180! Would really love to take something like this to Idaho. Fun!

[@clarencehopkins7832]

Excellent stuff bro

[@wurstofall]

Great airplane and great pilot!

[@Ronbc000]

Nice work, Bobby 👍

[@garyjstephens]

Another great vid. Can we get more info on the detailer he mentioned a couple of times?? My bonanza needs that kind of detailing!!

[@CCitis]

Dream airplane! That or a 185. Fantastic

[@johnnunez17]

Absolutely gorgeous plane ✈️😎😎👍👍🇺🇸

[@Gadget0343]

Very pretty plane!

[@Colin_Holloway]

That is one of the sexiest 180! Great video.

[@synchroduv]

Beautiful aircraft

[@jamesharrison6201]

Most of the ones I remember seeing at the Pawnee Blvd plant were set up for crop dusting. My second favorite next to the 195.

[@kaceyd5272]

Very nice 180

[@Atharoon]

What a beauty!

[@caca121112]

i was missing your videos!!!!!!!

[@279seb]

I wanna fly over there. Everyone on the radio is so nice and interested.

[@radarnj8043]

Tru a jack can trip up Skywagon? What a great resto mod Cessna. Kerry has a great all around anywhere bird.

[@jerryforeman4543]

Nice plane!

[@chuckwilliams999]

That runway you do a touch and go is about 3 miles from my house. I had to watch it a couple of times and that is the one. The Onion restaurant was on the corner, people use to fly in and dine, but has been removed.

[@claytonandersontar21]

I knew the clearing pass sounds like fun when he said it

[@ryandavis4457]

Good pilot there

[@MrWoowootila]

At first I saw the aircraft taxing out and I said to myself that looks like the airport I use to flight instruct over 30 years ago. The radio communications confirmed it.

[@michaelburke9153]

Great airplane.

[@klesmer]

That must be one of the fastest C180's flying. What a beauty.

[@darenbannon6901]

Not bad on speed, pretty standard with the speed kit and engine upgrade he has. There are a few that are in the 170 kt range. That paint was definitely amazing!

[@HavocStylesJoe]

11:17 True! Good snake oil is gold these days because of the Inter tubes.

[@lucbertrand3552]

Thanks for video. There aren’t enough c180 on KZbin. Makes winter long for me...

[@louissanderson719]

That is tidy. The cockpit is sweet too

[@loafman99]

This made me realize I have a face for radio and a voice for print.

[@kwittnebel]

You did great. Thanks for the tour.

[@morrismb9759]

Where was this taken? I heard Bridgeport, is this CT? @Flying Doodles

[@8433able]

Nice A/C

[@kodywillnauer9422]

That runway was a sidewalk!

[@waytooslow]

. Looks Ike they redid the taxiways and runway?

[@joecritch143]

No pattern position reports or did you edit them out?

[@jeremyyaple8498]

Wtf!! Haha. I was like hey that’s my buddy’s plane! Small world.

[@daszieher]

Now this is a really capable ride! Pity Cessna discontinued the 180/185. Not that I could afford a "flying Suburban" anyway 😂

[@donnstambaugh1506]

Sweetness.,.

[@victorgiaccone4221]

😍😍

[@bernardanderson3758]

Sounds like you have a IO-550

[@mauricioamado5975]

My goal is being on my seventies and fly that machine for fun

[@josephc.9520]

The paint job is grear

[@mynickels]

The ratchet sound on the trim makes me feel at home

[@patrickdaniels2615]

Mph or knots?

[@jimdensmore7262]

The ASI is in MPH.

[@mikecarlozzi6930]

It's a $250 hamburger now... ha!

[@coonagh1]

The wheel covers are unfortunate. Nice airplane though.

[@Dan41048]

I want to hear why everyone says it’s loud 😉

[@tonystewart7287]

C180 enough said 😎😎😎

[@DanFrederiksen]

GA desperately needs new birds. It could be so different.

[@cessna177flyer3]

I wish it were that easy. But when a new 172 costs well north of $400k and new airplane sales are measured in 10’s, not thousands, it’s difficult for companies to invest in new certified designs. I believe cost relative to performance is why the home built/experimental market has outpaced the certified market in recent years.

[@BaxterretxaB]

What’s 100LL these days….$6 a gallon near me 😔

[@1sheinz]

Bobby you have to get out with Trent Palmer and his Kitfox. He is out in the Reno Vegas area. The flying will knock your socks off, mountain and river beach landings. CHEERS Steve h.

[@AlaskaTRX]

For how this guy uses the airplane he'd probably be better off with a 206. Such small tires and wheel pants, speed kit, etc. Not really using its strengths... nice looking "mall crawler" version of the Skywagon! 😁

[@karlw7764]

Always some keyboard hero thinking they need to tell folks how to live. He has been in and out of all that Idaho stuff with that plane.

[@AlaskaTRX]

Your grass was in my way.

Why are there no half naked women on this channel bobby?

[@quinnjim]

Great plane! He must be retired with that facial hair.

[@lessharratt8719]

I will pay you to take the wheel pants off of this plane.

[@kwittnebel]

I will pay you for tge wheel pants after you take them off, along with the leg and brake fairings, so I can put them on my plane.

[@oscarrinc7025]

Scare off Jack rabbits 🤣🤣🤣

[@wizardgmb]

Beats scaring off deer or Cattle!

[@HavocStylesJoe]

Capt. Radio voice.... Annnnnd off to your left wing you will see the mighty Jackalope. Why you may ask? Texas. left base 35

[@jshell3]

More of an excuse to do a high speed low pass. 😆

[@oscarrinc7025]

@@jshell3 exactly. Everyone is going to start buzzing Propwash now.

[@429thunderjet2]

No really, dang jackrabbits when they get scared can jump about six ft in the air. My Pop was an aerial crop sprayer and he would sometimes see them jump so high up in the air in front of the airplane when he was making a pass across a field that he was worried about hitting them.
