My mother passed away at age 64 three years ago to stage 4 lung cancer. Knowing y’all are using the Saratoga and eventually the 401 to do angel missions is wonderful to see. Keep up the good, hard work.
Please check the latest FAA Advisory Circular for non-towered airports. You really shouldn't be doing a straight-in approach. It's dangerous and greatly increases the risk of mid-air collisions:
"Further, to mitigate the risk of a midair collision at a non-towered airport in other than instrument conditions, the FAA does not recommend that the pilot execute a straight-in approach for landing when there are other aircraft in the traffic pattern. The straight-in approach may cause a conflict with aircraft in the traffic pattern and on base to final and increase the risk of a midair collision.”
And of course you can never be sure a traffic pattern is empty if you are not at the field because NORDO is legal at CTAF airports.
I thought a five mile final was a bit extreme as well, and I haven't flown in 20 years. No tower, use the pattern.
My wife had breast cancer, she went through all the surgeries and treatments and was declared Cancer free. In 2015 we discovered it had metastasized into her bones and was inoperable. She fought like a trooper for nearly 4 years and we lost her in Jan of 2019.
The hardest thing I have ever had to do in my life was telling my 7 year old daughter that her mom was going to die.
Now Nick has passed that great milestone I hope things all go well from here and he comes out the other side whole and healthy.
I'm always glad to hear about people beating cancer but when I do I hope in the back of my mind that it doesn't throw them a sucker punch like it did my wife.
My Dad had cancer and came through, he has been free of it now for a few years and at 77 now i feel priveliged to still have him around, its always good to hear of survivors, great news!
My now 6 year old cousin was born with a disease called pompe disease. So rare that only 2 people in all of oregon(my home state) have it. I did a google search on it a while back and very few cases live past 21. He’s very strong and we pray for him often. One side effect that has affected him, is that his brain was starved of oxygen multiple times, so he may never age past 5 mentally😢. He has the best parents and they are doing everything they can. We need more people like them in this world.
Glad to see you got that plane in working condition again. Your work amazes me. Keep it up
Named after a fish saratoga, God healed my sister and nans cancer lost my father to lung cancer. God bless.
I loved, following this show parts 1 and 2, and got a real thrill seeing the plane flying and hearing the motor power, I wish I could fly. I worked for 33 years in production maintenance for a major Conservative News Paper in San Diego, so I have turned a wrench myself on millions of dollars in machines. It would be a real honor to meet you guys face to face and shake your hands but I don't see it in the future being that I'm now 70 but still going strong. Take care and I hope you continue to do more shows, God bless. Gustav.
Well glad to see this plane is fixed and ready to go. I hope to see missions in this plane soon. Great job nice plane.
well done nick stay strong you got this .
I just saw your latest episode. I lost my twin brother 10 months ago due to Gastric Cancer. I’m happy that guy got to ring the bell. I too am very interested in Angel flights. I haven’t flown in 15 years, but my goal is to get back into flying to do Angel Flights to honor my brother.
She is a beauty, I like how the effort paid off. I never doubted she would fly you safely home. Well done team.
My gosh i was excited to see this come to fruition! Cant wait to see the RR paint scheme on her!
My sister lost her battle with cancer at age 46. I'm naming my free airplane after her when I am finished with it. Jason and the gang are awesome with the Phoenix project.
Condolence about your sister.
She’ll be soaring with you again soon mate 👍🏼🇬🇧
Sorry for your loss
She never left you you can feel her at your side
You'll appreciate this spokey happening my father had tried to take several times to see a wartime communication aeroplane about a hundred miles away from where we lived,fast forward thirty plus years and was driving past an aerodrome having just burried my father.
Sitting on th field was the aeroplanes that l had missed it had just been restored 😌 l know only my father would of done that for me.
I always looking for the next episode.can wait until next episode
I'm so glad he got to "RING THE BELL". In 2019 I got to do the same thing.
Congratulations on your bell. buddy. after 3 myself i can tell you that is a great feeling.
What an achievement! Purchased sight unseen, you took a gamble, put in loads of hard work - and you've turned it around and into a super bird! WINNERS!!
I am really liking this toga..big fan and ready to see what y’all end up gettin done with her…good job guys
Well Done Jason & Company... ';-) Thanks for the Ride!
What was the reason for the gear up landing? I didn't catch that fix.
Long time ago, I lost a loved one to cancer, it was really tough. Congratulations to Nick for winning the Battle! Happy to see the Toga flying, and you guys coming home safely. I wish I could've come and meet you at Oshkosh, but I couldn't make it, hopefully next year! As always, keep up the Great work and have a good one everybody! 🙌🏼❤
We are sorry for your loss Stoyan. We are so lucky to have such a positive and impactful voice here on the channel. We hope to see you next year, but either way it is a pleasure to have you apart of the Crew👍🏻
@rebuildrescue thank you! Your words mean the World to me!
Congratulations On ringing the bell Nick! All the best to him and his family… - God’s Blessings 🙏🙏🙏
Awesome job guys. Greg's smile in flight says it all !!
This was definitely the coolest plane to see rescued so far. Makes me happy to see it flying. It’s a shame how many airplanes die because they’re just so darn expensive to maintain or to fix when something bad happens like the Toga’s gear up landing. It’s nice to see a few being saved.
Holy s***! A Rebuild Rescue plane that actually flies!!! Good job, folks.
Congratulations Nick, ringing the bell is a real milestone in your treatment. I remember when my wife Alice rang the bell at the end of her chemo, I actually cried, it was a long journey. Alice is a survivor as you will be also. Praying for your full recovery.
Sorry I wasn't able to catch the video yesterday, was on duty. But it is an awesome rebuild Sunday! Shout out to Nick, way to go man! Congratulations on ringing that bell! I hope you rang it using a sledgehammer. Jason, thank you for all that you do and the videos that you share. Have a great weekend. Catch you next Saturday.
Love those cockpit fairy 🧚♀️ lights
I didnt know how Rivets work. But i searched and found a Video that showed me the magic behind it. Thanks for making me curious.
Seeing what you went through to get that up in the air, it made me smile to see it there. Good job!
Congrats! Great to see it come together and make it home. 👍 Also, glad to had the chance to help with part 1 💪🏻 Stay safe!
Thank you for everything Brother !
Greg is an animal (in a very good way). The amount of time he spent on his back holding his head off the ground while removing and installing countless rivets and helping out everyone is unbelievable. You have a great crew, Jason. Great to see the Saratoga break contact with the ground - she's beautiful!
Nick is in our prayers - kick cancer's ass, dude!
You are so inspirational - you do not let anything stand in your way. I watched a show once about a brand new Saratoga being flown to the UK from the factory. Keep up the good work.
4 weeks since the last yacht video! Ya killin' me!
Congratulations Nick!!!!
"I don't know what that is, we don't need it" Got to love Greg's nonchalance!
Greg’s the type of guy that says “the trip took 4hrs & 9 minutes…instead of “oh, about 4hrs”
I'm battling cancer myself for 3 year i have Pancreatic cancer they tried to remove it one and than it came back here in a few days I'm going to go talk to my doctor to go back on chemo the hole time I'm sitting in the chemo chair I watch ur show bro great work when I was younger I use to find old trucks get them running and sell them
Congratulations Nick beating the big C. And great job guy getting the plane back in the air.
Bro... So happy to see yall saving these aircrafts... Glad ya got it fixed and are going to use it! Bluffton is like an hour and a half from me... Been to that airport a couple times!
Congratulatins on getting the Toga airworthy. It shows that good hard works really pays off in the end. A friend of mine owns a Saratoga II. His name is Walt and we named his Saratoga "Walt's Toga Party," and the name stuck. Spent many hours wrenching on this plane. Seeing you guys working on your Saratoga brought back many memories. I think you will be very pleased with the Saratoga. It a very nice cross country aircraft. I'm glad the fellow you were honoring on this episode, Nick, had rang the bell and beat his cancer diagnosis. I have lost several family members to this terrible disease. Just glad cancer centers such as the James Cancer Center in Columbus, Ohio are always discovering new treatments and possible cures for cancer.
They day the 401 lifts off the ground, I can't wait to see the reactions, it is going to be momentous
Jason, I lost my mom to the big C in 1984. It's one of the reasons why I quit smoking cigarettes some thirty odd years ago after 25 years. I really want to somehow get up to where you are, if for no other reason than to cheer for you guys while you prepare the 401 for its first flight in many years. I would really love to turn a screw or two just so you could say you had a USAF vet work on the plane. How about you talk to somebody who might could come get me, hmm?
Once again, thank you Jason for another awesome episode. You are a good host and an amazing leader. It was good to see Gregg working on the plane and flying you both safely home. Being on camera is difficult. Most people don't want to do it. We all have our reasons to be shy. Nevertheless, I appreciate you all. It makes me very happy to see you all engage with airplanes on a mechanical level. I wish I could fly. And watching you all makes me believe one day I may become a pilot. Until then, I will be watching and learning more about airplanes and hopefully see the 401 flying.
She's a sweet aeroplane. Do you think you can keep Sam out of it.? He'll be itching to fly it.
Great work all round. Some nice wire locking by the way. 👍. Thats what we used to call safety wiring.
I didn’t think a gear up landing qualifies as a “CRASH” there little buddy. Lol. But I love y’all’s videos, in fact, I look forward to them! 😉😎
Thank you for the video.
So happy to view the Saratoga surviving a crash and a return flight home.... :)
@officialRebuildRescue How's the weather in India?
I work less than 1500 feet from where you guys were at! Keep up the great work!
My parents flew a Turbo Saratoga SP and I was lucky enough to go along on some trips as a kid. Great aircraft that flew cross country any number of times and just smooth and reliable and comfortable. And fast. Dad liked it cause it was fast. Mom liked it cause she could get up above the weather. They considered going twin a lot and ultimately always decided to stick with the Saratoga based on the speed/efficiency/cost of operation.
I'll raise a glass to you guys this evening. Great job. Love to see the Toga flying!
Thank you guys for taking me along for the ride. I'm glad you are home safe and sound.
I the Air Force World, we were not aloud to use electric, pneumatic tools to install any panels. The Peed handle was your best friend. Mind you, I retired over 30 years ago. Things do change, but Safety is a Constant… Terry on my wife’s I Pad..
God is good
I always learn so much from you guys. Next year at Oshkosh! Let's fly!
Yes!! Thank you for keeping the faith Brother, the whole team appreciates it
@@rebuildrescuehow did yall get "buckshot whiskey" home?
@@mattbasford6299 I was wondering about that, too.
Love that plane. My Dad used to own one back in the day. Wish I could afford one, but that shit ain't happening.
Super Congratulations!
Beautiful airplane. I would love to own it.
Great that the flight went so smoothly and there were no issues. I agree, what a great airplane!
Prayers of thanksgiving for Nick! 🙏 Awesome teamwork with Greg, Jason! You worked so well together and as always you are being sure to do things correctly and not taking any shortcuts! The Toga is a beautiful plane and perfect for missions. Oh how I wish I were closer to your place. I'm in Clearwater, Florida. Miss flying so much! I'm 75 and can't get my medical anymore. Hoping to meet you and the crew some day! God bless.
I’m so happy you’ve learned to say fuselage correctly!
Bluffton is where I'm learning to fly, happy to see the guys there helping you out and giving you some great hospitality. Nick and his team are the best!
Wow! Saratoga! I haven't watched here in a while. Don't know the plane's story. Congratulations!
Congrats to the owner! My dad passed from pancreatic cancer in 2016. One of his dreams was to get his PPL, but he never was able to finish. Thanks Jason for all you do!
Another great video well done boys!
Glad you enjoyed it Brother, thank you for watching !
Dave sounds like a real rock star!
I’m glad she took you back home it is always so good to see one come back from the brink good job
It came back to roost
I saw this plane on the market and wished I could afford it. It is far more plane than I am ready to fly. It is beautiful.
Congratulations from Holland guys, awesome job! So nice to see doomed aircraft being rescued! A great addition to the RR fleet.. wel done👍👍👍💪
Thank you very much! Your support is super motivating👍🏻
Always look forward to Saturday video drops!!
Hey Kyle, thanks for your dedication and support, all of us here are so glad to have you on the channel with us
Nice work! Love that interior. One more checklist done.
What a pretty airplane! Glad you guys got it back up in the air.
Slap your logo on that Toga. Looks like a sweet aircraft. Are you planning to add nesting boxes or will you let the birds build their own? Can't wait for next week. ☮
God bless you all bro
Flew with a friend Queensland, Australia, to Papua New Guinea March 1969 in Cessna 172, visited several Brethren Mission Stations. Every where we went there were generators, water pumps even a washing machine that didn't go because the points needed cleaning and adjusting, took me no longer than 10 minutes to put a smile on many a missionary's face. God bless you guys.
Jason I particularly liked this video because we do not often see planes flying in your videos. Well done guys and well done to Nick.
The wing attachment bolts, 7:43 minute mark, at the new stringer location, the self-locking nuts do not have the proper thread engagement. Take one of the washers out.
I noticed it too. Should have 1 to 3 threads showing past the nut. Could also install a longer bolt.
Nice aerial vision .
I have a 78 Lance with the same TIO-540-S1AD engine. The wastegate is linked to the throttle (kinda like how a Cirrus' prop control is mechanically linked) so you need to feather it up to 36" manifold at takeoff. A good tip is to throttle to the fuel flow you usually get at 35" (which responds quickler than manifold) then nudge to 36" on the roll.
Came down here to say this. It’s pretty rare to actually go full throttle on takeoff in a turbocharged bird.
Wow that's crazy to a person who's worked on automotive turbo applications. The wastegate is linked to the map sensor in our case. You want 10 lbs boost, put it in the tune and the computer will command it accordingly. But I guess airplanes are different. For one thing it seems like they are way more analog.
@@JimBronson yea modern turbo aircraft engines have introduced wastegate controllers that use a mechanical computer and oil pressure "signalling" to automatically close and open the wategate more effectively (and you can just put in full throttle like a car). The S1AD setup is a strange middle point where they experimented with different ideas.
My TR182 requires is max 31" for TO and you can easily overboost...cannot put the throttle to the firewall on this aircraft.
Check the engine crank shaft run out when ever you do a “gear up” landing.
America makes great aircraft, I know we knock a few together in the uk ( out of wood and paper mainly ) but these airframes are so well engineered, The Liberator was an amazing aircraft, built to do a job, over engineered and strong , its great to see this one up in the air again, and the views are amazing, the U.S. is so vast compared to the UK, when we say weather, we mean a drop of rain and perhaps a bit of wind, but over your side its a big powerful destructive force you need to respect or it will teat your arse out of the plane
FYI, I am currently doing Chemo for Stage 4 Lung Cancer ... colorectal cancer RE-appeared after 3 years to my Lungs. They told me it was Terminal, but now I really am doing better! LOVE the Vids, and just love to see these birds getting back in the air! 👍
Bonus points for the Muir Woods cap! That and a trip to SF88 makes for a great day!
Great looking plane, and it looks very comfortable to do longer flights in. Got yourself a good one there.
yeah... been sitting waiting for you to post. keep up the great work.
We hope you enjoy Brother! Have a great weekend👍🏻
Great video and thanks for filming the ride back home.... awesome all the way around!
Your positivity means a lot, thank you for watching!
AWESOME JOB GUYS!
I noticed that your buddy was wearing a “Defiance College” t-shirt, it’s where I went to school, it’s maybe 30 miles from Bluffton. Sharp looking plane….good job guys.
Growing up in that area and a brother as a pilot, Bluffton was always a great place to fly into.
Nice plane good fuel economy and payload.😊😊😊
God bless ya Nick,, Stay strong. wtg RR
Beautiful aircraft!
I lost my sister to very aggressive cancer too. She beat it twice but the third time it wasn’t having it. She 72. We took her home to the Hawaii big island. She got a week of beach time but quickly turned for the worse. It was very hard unpleasant. It seems started in her gut worked around her lungs and heart then moved up to her brain stem. Exactly the way Steve McQueen went out.
It was hard, especially since I had lost my husband of 27 years a few weeks before to heart failure.
Wow she is a beauty
Great flight and good to see every box ticked on your very through check over ....
@shawnpossible Naming your airplane after your sister is a beautiful idea. My condolences to you & your family. My she rest in peace in the palm of Gods hand
Did you all figure out the Over boost issue? Looking forward to the next episode. Have fun at Oshkosh!
Yeah, it's called retard the throttle to solve issue.
Congrats!!!! You guys did an awesome job.
Definitely a good bird. The atmosphere was fun-filled, thanks for another great episode!
All of you are just the kind of people I circle myself with. What a great group of folks! I love what you do and love the channel. I've done everything from building part of the mold for the B-2 bomber wing to building giant canisters for Edwards Air Force Base for fighter jet crash simulation to cutting cars in half and welding the two good half together. Maybe I should start a channel! Hey, keep doing what your doing and I'll keep watching.
Jason you have a big like from me. These videos were better then a 401 and it was so satisfying to see a good flight at the end of it. I am a little bit tired of the 401 series. But I can't wait to see the finished plane.
