    It’s finally time to install the wings! Freedom is one step closer to getting up in the sky! So far we have learned a lot about this aircraft, including all the problems that it has. The whole project has been going slower than expected, hopefully that changes with the wings! Find out on this episode of Rebuild Rescue!

    What an absolutely amazing experience to build that thing, new wings basically from scratch.. all the engineering was applied 25 years ago to build them, but now all the engineering needed to fit and secure them today.. amazing!

    I've been watching your broadcasts for a long time... Up until today, while watching you and your team cleaning the 401, I outwardly kept saying, 'Why in the world are you not pressure washing all that bird residue outside instead of messing up that beautiful clean floor?'... But I was today old, when I finally noticed the drain in the floor... NOW I GET IT!... I really enjoy watching you guys work on whatever it is you're working on - you've got a great team, and you all have a drive to get whatever you are working on completed!... Stay safe, and know God's got this!

    I think it’s neat what you are doing for Sam. I’ve always held older people in my top category of people I look up to. I’ve had so many of them mentor me in the past. I’ve always got my ear open to anything they have to tell me or share with me. I’ve heard some neat stories from them also. Most are very giving of their time. I’ve had a few friends that remind me of Sam and I’d do just about anything for the ones I know. Hey Sam thanks for being there man.
