Patsy Singing Crazy. I think she had a cold that day. Looks like the cameraman had some issues as well. OK, I'm Lie'n. I did this as close as I could to the original to match the video, but I did change it up a little in two different places. Can you tell where?

My Little Test
Переглядів 695 місяців тому
I made this video a few months ago. I had no intentions of doing anything with it originally. It was just a little test for me to see if I could still carry a tune after many years of not even thinking about it. So now I thought, why not. I’ll just post it here for the fun of it. So don’t let it hurt your ears.

Amazon Driver Leaves Through Yard
Переглядів 8642 роки тому
Amazon made this right! I couldn't believe Amazon refunded the full price of $161.24 for the item delivered because this contracted Amazon driver drove through my front yard leaving trenches as he left instead of backing down the driveway or turning around at the house to leave. There wasn't much sound with the video so I put some background music in it.

They say, any landing you can walk away from is a good one. Don't believe it.

Braking heavily without the stick back will do it. Beautiful Legend Cub.
Nobody cares. Reversing is frowned upon. He has hundreds of packages to deliver quickly, ain't nobody got time to walk far to deliver a package. Fuck your grass, you're not special 😂
Wow ! Awesome job on this.. Great job on vocals.. I love finding other musicians in my age bracket still rockin it.. I tried the song also if you'd care to take a listen. Cheers ! Keep makin music !
Thank you very much. I really liked your version. It's obviously better than mine because we both posted our videos 6 and 7 days ago and you've already got 265 views to my 42 views. And you have 46 comments. Very nicely done! Great video.
@@BubbaGumpU812 Thanks so much . Us older musicians have to keep rockin !
A Blessed and charming life, filled with melodies and harmonies that are still reverberating today. A wonderful tribute, for what was clearly a beautiful soul, and a blessing to all who knew her.
Two years later, came back to this. It is still impressive. From the trailering configuration, to being ready to sail in @ 22 minutes, all done calmly, and deliberatly. Add, for this Captain, say 5 minutes to launch the boat and you have from the trailing configuration to sailing in under 30 minutes, with a few minutes to spare. Amazing. This takes me single-handled, at least 1 hour, usually more. Going to use this as a model and see what I can do to duplicate this, great job!
The ole Piper J cub the only plane that will just barely kill you
A real stupid idea.
This is a fun video, but it's worth watching just for the music.
Looks like a pretty expensive landing to me.
Once upon a time I was at SFO in a empty 172 on a charter...it was blown over by strong winds coupled with prop blast from C130! Only the prop curled and beacon lite broke...like a leaf in the wind.then ground folks came out with a crane...wind and prop blast toppled on top of my 172! Totaled! I got an overseas flying job next day n left town!
Lucky given the circumstances this J3 is fairly easily fixable! Sorry we old non bold pilots care about the aircraft first, the guy who caused it comes second! 😂
Don't believe what? That human life is more valuable than some piece of scrap metal?
That should buff out..
What, is it a fad wrecking vintage warbirds? Stop flying them before we have none left.
The Stinson Voyager is such a cutie pie, except for that vertical fin, so I changed mine to a more pleasing, rounded shape. Who needs a Cub when you can have this?
@@SR-gs8zo I don't like the triangular shape of the vertical fin. Trust me, this looks much better. Besides, it's my airplane, I can do what I want.
Pilot: I want to become an American Legend! Well, this is one way on your way to fame, but if it's the proper way???
Just because you walked away is no reason to land upside-down!
A good landing is one you can walk away from, a great landing is when you can reuse the aircraft.
Poor rigging and picker operating.
We also have a saying whenever somebody bounces one in, "Which one of those landings are you going to log?"
All of them
@@dougdouglass1248 Finally! Someone who gets me.
Aw man that sucks!
glad your ok aviate navigate communicate
Must have been crane drivers first day ffs
There's another 'saying' What time does the flight end? About fifteen minutes before the ambulance gets there.
lifting straps are your friend.
Disc brakes will do it all the time. Expander tubes will not.
I like the term I heard a few years ago. A great landing is one where you can reuse the airplane. Looks like they can reuse this one. The last time I flew myself, I landed an American Eagle ultralight. It wasn't reusable. That was about twenty five years ago.
Looks like good support out there with Lorain & Driver.
Quand on pilote comme un con😂😂
Well I heard an instructor say one time a good landing is one you can walk away from a great landing is when you can reuse the plane again, not so in this case
It's been reused ..
@@alexdarcydestsimon3767 But not on the same day.
@@davidhames319 hardly. :-)
Only if you can use the airplane again right away!
Conventional gear (taildragger) planes like this J-3 Cub SUCK. I owned and flew one for a year and never felt comfortable with it. They are just not forgiving as are tricycle gear planes. I knew an airman with 60 years experience who did the very same to his Cub Crafters reproduction. There is major loss here. Prop, engine sudden stoppage, wing struts vertical stabilizer. and more. There was a Tri-Champ. When I suggested to Champion they build a Tri-Citabria, they brushed me off. I'm sure there is a market for a Tri-Cub. At least, there are a lot of choices for tricycle gear LSAs.
Conventional gear can be a lot more fun than tricycle gear, if you have the proper skill set. Imo.
Maybe tailwheel airplanes don't Suck, you do...
I own a 7FC Tri-Champ. They had a tendency to flip to the forward side quarter like a tricycle so after the second time it happened to mine in the early 60's they wisely converted it back to a conventional gear making it a 7EC and it has never experienced another problem over the past 56 years since.
You owned a cub and never mastered the rudder/tail wheel? I feel sorry that you never felt “comfortable” maneuvering a taildragger around. I learned the other way around. T-dragger first and then conventional. I prefer a tail wheel.
@@marthakrumboltz2710 The taildragger has a "conventional" landing gear. The DC-3 was a big taildragger and pilots did wheel landings rather than three-point. Safer that way. Most of my landings were wheel, except when I could demonstrate a full stop on the numbers, doing a three-point. Sorry to inform you, but conventional is astable, prone to ground loops because the center of gravity is behind the mains whereas in tricycle the c/g is in front of the mains, Landing in a crab causes a self-correcting yaw making the aircraft very much more stable than conventional. There is a saying: "There are are two kinds of taildragger pilots, those who have ground looped and those who will ground loop.
Have a few hours in a J3. One of the funnest planes I’ve flown. That rudder never would’ve deflected like that if he used a lifting strap with a choker on it and not the block.😬 My dad had a 1938 J3 but lost it in a divorce to his non-pilot, ex-wife.🙄😡🤬🤯🤣🤷♂️ Glad it’s back in service! Enjoy that beauty!🤩🙏😊
Any pilot can fly inverted how many can land inverted.
Actually, there are a few who can land inverted. I've seen it myself.
There are quite a few actually w/ a set of wheels up and down.
Thank god for insurance!
I just came across your video. This is a great demonstration, but I could not see how the crutch at the stern was supported or how the gin pole attached to the desk/tabernacle/mast. If you are still monitoring this channel thanks for posting. I own a VN 23 and it takes me 45 minutes, sometimes more to do what you did in this video. If there is any detail available on your mast raising system that would be great, but if not I hope are are still enjoying the boat. I have had mine for almost 30 years, It is a lot of fun to sail. Fair winds.
Hi Hunt&Sail, sorry I haven't replied sooner. I don't get on here much. I don't know a lot of sailing terms. I'm an aircraft mechanic not a sailboat mechanic. What I used was a length of pressure treated 2X2 that I drilled a hole in both ends of and put long SS wood screws in. then I cut the heads off of the bolts so I wound up with a long SS shaft sticking out both ends. The shaft on one end was long enough to go all the way through the bottom of the mast. The mast had a hole drilled through it when I got it. I don't remember the size but seems like around a 5/16th or so. I have no idea what it was for. And I put two heavy duty SS hose clamps around the 2X2 ends to guard against the wood splitting during use. Not much side load but clamps are cheap. The SS shaft on the other end of the 2X2 was shorter. It went through the turnbuckle/hardware on one of the cable ends that comes from the mast that hook to the bowsprit. BTW I do know what a tabernacle is because the guy at West Marine made fun of me when I went there looking for one. That was one of the things that was missing when I got the boat. He said " Oh, you mean a tabernacle" as sarcastically as you can imagine. I had to make one from scratch. Hope my reply is not too late for you. Fair winds backatcha.
@@BubbaGumpU812 Thanks, I have my VN 23 put up for the Winter. However, this looks like a good winter project to take a shot at, I appreciate the detailed explanation. I will see what I can come up with, thanks again.
Thanks for the video! Just bought a Venture of Newport yesterday. Like to know where you got your sails. My main needs replacing soon.
I had them made by a local sail maker shop. I found the specs on the web. They looked great but I never had it under sail before I sold it. I'm a mechanic and not a sailor.
@@BubbaGumpU812 Thanks for the reply! Your mechanical knowledge came into play raising that mast. You sure made that look easy. Have a wonderful day! Trudy
Thank you. I've been doing it as an awkward 2-person job. Your method looks great. I hope you leave this video up on youtube.
Thanks for this video, I'm working on my new to me vn23 right now and hope to have her in the water soon.
Me too, what a beautiful boat
Around how much did you end up spending to get this fixed up nice? I'm thinking of doing something similar. Thanks
I really don't remember. I didn't try to keep track at the time. I'm sure I didn't make any money when I sold it though.
Bad idea to raise sails on the trailer. Sudden gust and boat and you off the trailer.
Oh yeah That wind looks ferocious! Just look at those pine trees bend in the back ground! And those storm clouds! Good call mtwolf13a! Good call!
Be my guest.
I think the Stinson is the most beautiful airplane, but the down side is they are so heavy. But I want one so bad.
Franklin powered?
Nope! Lycoming O-435-1. Back in the early 60's an STC was available to put these Military surplus engines on several types of Aircraft. The Stinson 108 was one of them. That STC has since gone away. If someone wanted to hang one on a Stinson today, they should be able to get it approved with a field approval based on that STC.
OUCH! That was rather sad to see. Beautiful Cub. Glad she's back in the air.
Sweet !!!!!!
NAVY PILOT ?
I was gonna learn in that one :(
You still can! It's up and flying again
I remember, in the early 40's what a beautiful plane the Stinson was, even as a four or five year old boy.
The GA aviation world is very focused on spot landings, braking hard to make taxi-ways, comparing soft-field technique, measuring fuel burn down to the hundreth of a gallon per hour.... This causes unnecessary accidents and ego-measuring.
Never try and make the first turn off
That statement is a fine example of rationalization, a thing all GA pilots do when they continue to fly.
