    This ‘interview’ format is best. The audience hears and sees the subject without listening to questions being asked. Thank you.

    What a great channel you have. I have watched so many of your episodes. I know it's a lot of work to travel, interview, and edit. You are doing a heck of a job. Very interesting stuff. Entertaining but also informative. I subscribed.

    i became a fan of your chanal and the way how you present to us your docuentations ! stol and superstol became incredable performed, and is actually great flkying. now it would be time if you make a survay about the 3-5 best stol-aircrafts and a deeper look into there different wingsystems, like the cube, the kfa southafrica with a very special second wing designe ect....this would be great !!!!

    MOAC is for me the most beautiful way to manufacture my beloved PA18 Supercub, much more than carbon cub (that I must say those airplanes are very cool too). MOAC is like that kind of girl that you like a lot because of, I can't explain why, but you fall in love with. One day, I will get my MOAC airplane girl. Please keep up the extraordinary great work you do. Kudos to experimental aircraft channel and to MOAC American Legend Cubs.

    His tacticub is a stillborn idea. Its the answer to a question nobody asked. Cool plane, don't get me wrong, but a military contract for that aircraft is pie in the sky. Im sure a few fuddfolk will buy into the gimmick.

    There is nothing "stronger" about a TIG weld. All common weld processes can produce welds of equal strength.

    • @en0n126
      @en0n126 Рік тому +2

      Looking online there are sources that say TIG is stronger, which could still be debatable like you said, but regardless. The guy goes out of his way to mention multiple times that they TIG weld, then the narrator cuts in with "TIG welding has become the industry standard in aviation". lol, then what's so special about your company doing it dawg? Oh, it's got tactical gun cases and cringy stickers. Virtue signaling to get customers. If it works for mediocre pillows, it could work for planes I guess.

    • @johnmichaels4330
      @johnmichaels4330 Місяць тому +2

      Exactly. A proper weld is a proper weld. They all can xray the same. Tig is usually cleaner and it's easier to get a good xray with it. Thats why they made it an industry standard. This guy is probably bringing it up show that he has introduced industry standards in his small company.... and that might be the second largest cost. Lol

    I remember writing to this company many years ago after reading on their website how they "preserved all the good features of the old Cub, like the Clark Y airfoil..." I pointed out that no Cub was ever built with that airfoil, it always had the USA35B. I got back an almost snooty reply to the effect that that doesn't really matter blablabla.... Instead of just saying "Thanks for pointing that out" and changing it, they tried to somehow worm their way out of a highly embarrassing gaffe. If a company building airplanes doesn't know what airfoil their aircraft uses, well, that's a little suspect. I have worked on these extensively and they are ok as a Cub clone, nothing more.

    Somebody needs to tell me how a stol plane costs 120 grand and a Cessna 182 can be had for 60 grand when there is not as much to a stol plane.

    If you buy an S-LSA from them, get a DAR immediately and change it to E-LSA. Why? Because even slight damage requires a letter of authorization from the manufacturer to repair. Which you won't get. Because they fear liability and because they can make a ton of money out of you. If you even slightly damage your fuselage, for example, you will have to send it back to them and they'll charge you for a new one. Simple damage that has been fixed in proven ways for a hundred years - they won't let you do it.
    This applies to all factory built LSAs but this company is particularly un-helpful.
    If you take offense to this, I'm just stating facts.

    Hi I love the way you expose your point of view and regarding the way In which Latinos view Trump I can tell you this as the way Latinos head work , they are just as human as anyone in this planet they only think on themselves , I was dismayed talking with young Latinos and listening to their idea of Trump being their savior and believing that things will change by get rid of taxes and regulations not thinking that things in a society have to have means that apparently are unfair are necessary to create a better world , unfortunately all they care are what they think will benefit them and don't even see that every penny contribute will be making our world and life better .
