DUDE, aviation reviews? You freaking ROCK! You should have mentioned how expensive the plane, maintenance, operation, and how much it costs to be licensed to fly however
+Creepy Productions At the time we shot this 100 low Lead was around 5 bucks a gallon and this airplane burns around 10 gph.
Sure, but how much does a sports license cost? How much is hangar space and engine maintenance?
I've been looking to break into the aviation field for years. It sure as hell isn't affordable anymore. As such I'm going to just stick with ultralights.
+Creepy Productions If you adjust the costs for inflation, you'll find it was never "affordable" in the first place.
Creepy Productions A light sport certificate can run you 3,000 to 5,000 dollars with a private pilot running you 4,000 to 6,000 dollars.
You have to think of it as paying for a skill for life. I love flying and it was something I always wanted to do for a living. Now I get to do it every day and I could not be happier.
+Dakoda Neilson Depending on where you live a PPL is going to set you back about 8-11k USD depending on your flight times and area
This is NOT a 1964 Piper Cherokee. The quadrant style throttle, third set of side windows, the tapered wing (a 70’s “innovation”), and the fact that the PA-28-181 Archer II was first certified in 1975. N32115 is a 1974 PA-28-180 Cherokee Archer.
Airplane nerds, as bad as car nerds, but for something even less people care about.
Yep. In 1964 it was the Cherokee 180. Same engine and fuselage, but the same straight “Hershey bar” wing of the Cherokee 140. Interesting calling a taper wing an innovation. The Cessna 172 had it from 1956, and other planes in the Cessna line from the immediate post war.
Did you notice the OV10 on the ramp?
@@Bartonovich52 Yeah and the taper wing sucked! Give me a Hersey bar wing any day. The taper wing was harder to land. With taper came added washout (wing twist) and added cost.
My ‘67 140 has a useful load of 864# not 500#.
As a pilot, this is 100% true except most of the plane nerds have never been in a real cockpit beyond maybe an introductory flight if they are lucky. Most are flight sim nuts who flip on the GPS autopilot the second after departure, and then will talk to real pilots like they know what they are talking about because they’ve plugged two things into an FMC and talked with some guy on vatsim whose as high off his own farts as he is. Then you have people like me who won’t shut up about the fact that they are an IRL pilot because they spent so much money actually getting the license that they have no money left to actually use the license. So they end up sniffing the same farts as flight simmers, except they have the license to back their shit up. The real pilots are the ones who are in the air right now or flew a couple days ago, or are prepping for their next written or checkride talking about how their airplanes need new maintenance if they are owners, or how badass it would be to own a King Air.
Interestingly enough, something even close to a transmission would be a turboprop engine. You have a turbine chugging out something in the ballpark of 30,000 RPM and a reduction gearbox that brings it down to around 3000 RPM. Your cruise is then adjusted with a variable-pitch, constant speed propeller.
That car has wings!

Highly appropriate that the length of this video is 7:47.
thats like saying its appropriate a dodge stratus review is 9:11 long

at least its an actual review this time now
After Top Gear got cancelled - because I prefer to think of it as cancelled, rather than kept as a zombie by BBC and 2 Actors that I want to think only accepted the part commemoratively and not because they thought that they could even come close to the real Top Gear (Because I like them both) - I thought that there never will be any other shows that could ever reach the level of craziness, spot-on absurd comments that actually bear common sense and logic and "fraternity" between the showman and the viewer.. But then I found your videos on UA-cam...
I can't say that it is as good as Top Gear. Or that it ever will be. It's a hard thing to accomplish and it requires many years, Top Gear ran for more than 30 something years (If you count the old show) and there are only a few episodes per season that are memorable.. But if there's anybody out there who can make a show about cars with the proper amount of craziness and proper description just like the Clarkson-Hammond-May lineup, it's you.. If anybody is going to carry the Olympic torch of automotive madness on TV it's you, even though you're not British and you sometimes get too American for us across the Atlantic and Pacific, I believe that if you keep this up, you'll get there.
Keep it going and die hard fans of Top Gear will find out about the "new kid on the block (of UA-cam)", I also wish you full success in all your endeavors and that you always be happy. :-)
is this Matt Farah's Million Mile Lexus??
i laughed irl
i did too
Thanks for the kind words about Georgians at the end. I had moved to a new state where the moral measuring stick was way different than what I had been taught. Your words summarize exactly what I had been trying to figure out why I felt different as a Georgian compared to everyone else here. I could never really put it into words other than being genuine vs not being. But you hit the nail on the head. Continue you're awesome work here. Just goes to show that cars and vehicles are more than just assets, but can be the expressions of our personality we sometimes forget exist.
So this was the mysterious vehicle you mentioned in Matt's podcast. I honestly thought it was going to be a Segway. Oh well 😔.
+Matt Graham Now I relly want him to do a sagway review

Wow I needed this video being as I'm in the market to purchase a plane thanks
I wanna totally drive one to work. show off and land in the parking lot
+Meowy McNasty As long as you have a carpark at least 1620 ft long, you'll be able to go home again.
*Takeoff*
Ground Roll: 720 ft
Over 50 ft obstacle: 1620 ft
*Landing*
Ground Roll 600 ft
Over 50 ft obstacle: 1150 ft
+Meowy McNasty For that try a gyrocopter... I suggest a Honeybee.
Until you have gone through checks and need repair before meeting the standerd. Planes are like old cars, the can be cheap to buy, but they are expansive to fly.
IMHO you have it backwards. The Archer is a very stable airplane. You have to really work at it to make it spin. Intentional spins were not allowed in the Archer I flew, but I did take it to full stall once when practicing stall recovery with an instructor. It got real mushy and, with the engine at idle, the nose eventually dropped, but there seemed to be no tendency for either wing to drop; the ailerons maintained enough authority to keep the wings level, even at full stall. Recovery was absolutely normal, just as if I'd been recovering from an incipient stall. Now, I'm sure if one stalled it and then kicked in full rudder, it would dutifully spin, but as I said, intentional spins were not allowed.
Gears go up, gears go down. Gears go up, gears go down. Up, down, up, down, up, down. updownupdownupdownupdownupdownupdownupdown. GEAR FAILURE.
No failure to extend in an Archer as it is fixed gear. :)
Korbitr looks down realizing his mistake...
This is when Korbitr knew, he fucked up.
Amusing that the time of the video is 7:47. Almost gotta be intentional.
Air day bro!
best meme.
12,000 DOLLAR ENGINE REBUILD SON
Air day NO!
I guess a biplane is the 4wd of the sky then.
or maybe midwing
A Piper cub or a Cessna Birddog would be that. Or a C185 for instance, with tundra tires ofcourse. For when you look at an aiport and say: Fuck that, I want rocks and mud to land on.
TheMsdos25 Helicopters are the 4wd of the sky; they don’t need pavement to take off and land.
Biplanes are more like the 4-wheel steering of the sky since they are inherently more maneuverable than monoplanes.
Nope twin engine

Mr R. reveals himself... sorta!
When
+Will Mol At the end of the video. That's him walking to the plane.
+Will Mol he even slipped lol
+Marquis M. Somewhere there's a really old motorcycle maintenance video with him in it, and he shows his face.
+Godmason I believe I remember the video in which you speak. TBH, we've actually seen way more of Mr. R. than we have Roman. Now he's the elusive one.
Dang, I did air force cadets when I was in my mid teens and I was given the opportunity to fly (under direct supervision) a Cessna 152 on a few occasions. Ever since I was a little kid in Primary school I've loved planes and my dream plane the whole time was a white Piper Cherokee with green stripes. Such a simple, beautiful aircraft. To this day I still don't have my licence to fly, and I'd still love to, but cars and bikes have really taken me since having learned to drive and I now know more about automobiles than I ever did about aircraft. I'd love to fly someday but unfortunately my passion for planes seems to have faded. Thank you guys for making this video. You really took me back with this one, ngl.
we have a scrap heap PA-28-150 in our school to do projects on. so this is extra special. thank you so much RCR. i truly love you all.
Grumman isn't out of business
It's Northrop Grumman
They got bought out
Grumman is one of my all time favorite companies. They made some really solid planes that saw extensive use in WW2 and after, with some G21's still being used by small airlines in places like Alaska. They made the USPS mail truck that literally every American has seen for the last 4-5 decades, and is just now being phased out. They also made sport boats, canoes, and fire engines. Oh, and last but not least they also made the Apollo Lunar Module that put Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on the moon. Such a fascinating history for a manufacturing company.
Which plane is best plane?
The best plane is not a car
1414carles PA-28 is best plane because 5.9 LITER SUBARU

You are my favorite channel on the 'tube. Really, you are a creative genius. The way you dive into the spirit of each vehicle, and bring it to us, is truly awesome.
Who would have known, the most thoughtful, concise, and entertaining plane reviews would be on a car Channel! Well done!
it's this red star's 100,000,000 hour archer II?
+Dungzoo Its not that high, its has like 5000 hours on it which equals about 550,000 miles.
wait, holy shit, face reveal??!! what?? What is this sorcery lmao?! xP
+Charles Satterthwaite At the end. You can tell it's him because of the helmet cam, and he's skinny as fuck
+Robert Rowley Runner's build, son. Weight reduction, bro.
+Kyle Morgese Face reveal? that's an ass reveal
Wow. first cr1tikal, now mr regular?
+Charles Satterthwaite probably a 19 or 20 bmi.
I wanted to get my pilot's license when I retired, but by that time I was wearing hearing aids and still had to turn on "CC" to understand flight controllers in videos. The lesson here for you young guys is to do it now, and dont wait until your too old.
Lifetime Georgia native here, thanks for the compliments! Glad we could show you some hospitality! ^_^

It took me 3 minutes in to realize this was NOT an automobile. I'm reporting your channel for misleading titles. See you in court.
Aiden is all Knowing so this is a manualmobile?
chiken short answer: yes
ok
Would definitely love to see more of these! Awesome video Mr.Regular!
Great end to the season. Thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you.
Not a car. Probably the most not a car we've had.
Also, quite a bit of Mr.Regular on camera, feels weird.
This is a 1974 Archer, not 1964!
I consider myself somewhat of a airplane enthusiast and also a fan of your car videos. I think your analogies are spot-on. I love these videos. good stuff bruh.
As a plane enthusiast as well as a car enthusiast, this was awesome. I hope you get a chance to do more of these!
I believe the purpose of the double spark plug and double magneto is in case one fails you aren't totally screwed. But I'm not totally sure.
+K1ll3rM4st3r Correct. It also allows you to burn more fuel for more power.
Yeah, but even in the event of complete engine failure you aren't "totally screwed". Planes don't just fall out of the sky when their engines crap out. Hell, they make you practice deadstick (unpowered) landings in flight school.
The back of your head is sweaty at 4:42 I can tell it was a hot, bumpy day up there. Next time, bring a bottle of water to sip on while you fly - it will help keep your stomach in check and you will feel a lot better replacing what the heat takes out of you.
+Chris Zinner Oh I drank about a gallon of water that day, and wanted more. Uuuuggggggg Georgia: Where you are thirsty all the time
RegularCars dang. Well, it sounds like you fought the good fight. I've taken Dramamine before a flight with my instructor where I knew he was going to put me through hell, training IFR wearing "foggles" so that all I could see were the instruments on the pannel - not outside at all. Florida is a lot like Georgia (hot). That little pill gave me a stomach made of iron with the calming effect of like, one beer. So maybe upgrade to drugs next time. 'Tis no shame!
+Chris Zinner Dramamine is NOT FAA approved. Remember that if you are acting PIC you may not take it.
Kasey D haven't flown in years - too expensive - but good to know. Cheers!
i was there during filming.
it was so hot that i ended up with heat exhaustion even with about 20gallons of water
I did not expect this from RCR, and as an Aircraft Mechanic, was very well done! I hope to see more, and when you mentioned low wings being the equivalent of RWD in automotive made me spit my coffee because I was just talking about this the other day with a co-worker whose looking to buy a Cherokee.
can you review an F-16 next?
Can you review my dad's horse?
Thanks guys, It was blast hanging out and I love the video!
I remember watching you guys years ago when you guys were barely starting off. I’m currently in flight school training in a PA-28 and see your channel again and your reviewing planes now wtf 😂 IMPRESSIVE
as a pilot im begging u to review more planes!
You should review more planes! Review that V tail Bonanza that I saw on the vídeo!
Hey guys, I've watched pretty much all of your reviews. I am a private pilot, majoring in Commercial Aviation. This review was awesome, and as a pilot I can really appreciate it. In your other video when you said the 150 was the Chevy Cavalier, I said to myself "and the 172 would be the Toyota Corolla or Honda Civic." Funny that you said the same in this! Keep doing what you're doing.
Fantastic. Had not seen RCR clips in a long time... missed this one.
thats not a car!
thats not a car at all!
We need regular plane reviews.
Totally cool to see a plane review! I am a student pilot right now and am also super into cars so this was really cool to see. Love your channel, keep up the great work.
Been watching for so many years and still watch these every day... When we getting a regular TRACTOR review?
JOHN MEATWALLET
I liked your car to airplane analogy, although I've got my own car to airplane analogy. An automatic transmission is to a tricycle landing gear what a stick shift is to a taildragger.
does that make me prop striking the citabria the first time I tried to land it the equivalent of mustang guys crashing while driving out of the dealership?
@sofielee4122
No.. that’s just dinging a rim.
Ground loop is the Crowd Killer.
I cannot belive this, 5 years after seeing this video, I have started doing my PPL, and this is the aircraft I ended up choosing to learn on, completely forgetting about your video on it.
Ah! I totally wanted to get in on a "Regular Plane Review" with you guys in a 172. Looks like somebody beat me to it! Nice episode!
There are Piper Cubs there...
I SWEAR TO GOD MR. REGULAR IF YOU DON'T DO ANYTHING ON A CUB I'LL BE VERY DISAPPOINTED!
+lotto77102 The Cubs where there from a dealer I want to say they are legend Cubs.
+lotto77102 Or at-least a Citabria.
Piper cub, the jeep of the sky
+MeDuzZ- Citabria is my Bae, just soloed one.
+Dakoda Neilson Looked like Carbon Cubs to me, but I could very well be wrong
IFR - I Follow Railroads...........
Great plane. What's nice about the Archer is that 180hp Lycoming. It feels agricultural compared to a Continental, but it's a tougher engine and the oil pan heats the air intake (no carb ice). OTOH, Pipers (low wings) have fuel pumps...
Love this. Exciting new avenue for RCR

Is this Matt Farah's million mile Lexus?
+joi2326 no it's not Matt Farah's million mile Lexus
+Filia Medici Samson but It looks exactly like Matt Farah's million mile Lexus though.
No its not Matt Farah's million mile Lexus. If it was Matt Farah's million mile Lexus, the title would say Matt Farah's million mile Lexus. A review on Matt Farah's million mile Lexus would be cool, seeing as Matt Farah's million mile Lexus has a million miles.
Rick Sanchez There is one. This is an inside joke for the channel's viewers and you've failed to understand it.

Loved it dude, more regular plane reviews ftw
Regular Airplane Reviews should be another of your staples.
You guys ROCK ! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Edit: That BOOTY @1:55

As a car fan, and certified flight instructor. Thank you. Thank you so much.
This is gold! More plane reviews!!!
Season finale huh?
Does this mean you're finally coming up to the North East?
Saab Sonett Broh is waiting..
+Amesie's Automotive Corner pacific fister footage is next, vagabond falcon northeastern trip comes next year when the vagabond falcon is done.
As an aircraft maintainer, the paint missing from the leading edges drives me absolutely bonkers. Must... Apply... Fresh Topcoat
+GMdrivingMOPARguy I agree. The airplane was out in texas for a long time and the paint is well less then great. Maybe one day new paint will be in the budget.
yes! haha working on getting my wings. nice to see a review like this up. :D
Hey! I've actually gotten to fly one of these before! This was a pleasant surprise.
It's too bad a lot of people can't experience general aviation. The U.S. federal government has made it incredibly expensive to become a private pilot. $5K-$8K just to get a basic private pilot's license. And, airplane ownership - it's another very expensive sport. If the federal government had it their way, they would get rid of all general aviation programs...
The federal govt has a lot more regulations related to automobiles than general aviation and it's dirt cheap to drive. So I don't think it's a regulation problem. More likely it's a "you want to fly for fun, you must have a lot of money" tax imposed by the industry. Also there is no good reason why newer GA planes that are almost identical to decades old designs should approach or exceed 1/4 of a million dollars.
+situationmoney There's lots of ways around it, though. Ultralight and Light Sport Aircraft are a couple. LSA is really neat because most of the old rag wings like Cub, Ercoupe, and Champ fit into LSA rules. For less than a new pickup truck, you can have your certificate and your own plane... and the best part is... in a few decades the plane will still be worth what you paid for it.
Isn't push propeller rwd of the sky?
+kinger2005 push prop is the mid-engined config of the sky.
+TheLaXandro Whats rear-engine config of the sky? These are the important questions.
+TheLaXandro What about the Bell P-39? Front propeller like most aircraft, but the engine was mounted directly behind the pilot.
Guess there isn't a direct translation anyway
+kinger2005 What about pusher puller? Like the Skymaster? Is that like that ridiculous twin engined Audi they had on Top Gear?
I like the occasional non-car review. It brings variety and I enjoy his style. I could listen to this guy review a microwave.
As a pilot, this video got me to start watching all of your videos. Man I wish you would review more aircraft haha
NOT A CARRRRRRRR.....
Registration number N32115 is a 1974 model year, not a 1964
+draggonhedd hes not exactly smart.... or hes bad researching.
+draggonhedd It also doesn't have a tapered wing... just go with it.
+draggonhedd Model Year is a little less important in planes, unlike cars they will produce the same airplane for years with small modifications to update avionics. In fact the Piper Archer is only on its 4th update.
+Dakoda Neilson You an instructor? (Comfortable in right seat.)
The '64 is a bit shorter -- little bit more rear seat footroom on yours. Nice panel, too.
+baker2niner Right. Piper didn't add the 3rd window until '68. I've got a few hundred hours flying and instructing in PA-28s of all types. Great trainer.
Dear 'ole Cherokee,
I learned to fly in one of these (base model 140 hp) many, many years ago (1975) and have had a soft spot for the old girl ever since.
I have flown many much more powerful and sophisticated aircraft since, but like your first love you never forget that she was the first one to introduce you to the sky, alone, young and in love, thanks for the reminder of simpler times.
Lots of small GA airports have the same feeling, this was quite a surprise to see, but glad you got in a PA-28 (they fly so much better than a 152/172)!
this car is best car because not a car
so suddenly cussing on RCR is censored?
+ModernDinosaur He never curses. He's vulgar, but never swears. Look back at old videos. He never says shit or fuck. He's made a point of it.
I guess i've never noticed. Although, I feel as though if he isn't gonna swear, he should leave cuss words out of the script all together. The censorship breaks the flow of the commentary. Just my 2 cents.
+ModernDinosaur the last song involves fisting, we haven''t lost anything.
+Eli Jonas He's said shit a few times. Check the Toyota Rav-4 and Subaru WRX reviews
Thanks for the plane review!
thanks for a great insight into passenger planes
Hey its an Alfa Twin Spark
4 cylinders and 2 spark plugs per cylinder
Cory Brayshaw naaaah, the plane engines have 2 plugs for redundancy, meanwhile the aflas had them to help with leaning the air fuel mix
7:47 length... coincidence I think not
The Boing 747 is the Sexiest plane ever built.
Boeing.
+Dock Ness Thanks, it was very early morning when I typed that bad then.
Cars n' Bikes I'm afread that goes to the Concord, not to the 747
We had a Cherokee at my school. Not airworthy, since it was a mechanic school and at that time our hangar wasn't even at an airfield. Still i thought that it was an awesome little beast, as said in the video it comes from a different era. Our had completely original interior and it reminded me of the cars in the sixties and i loved that. Also the basically same engine is in use in robinson r22 helicopter which i came familiar with during my training.
I wish i could go to a flight in one of these.
We need more of these.
"Georgia has good people who are morally just on a ground level." THE FUCK IS THIS. i watch your videos to be offended
Unsubscribed, disliked, reported; not car.
we need more of these!
5:03 Went to school for aviation... my ground instructor's first name was Ron. Now I know that you know your stuff! Instant like and sub!
I can't believe I just saw this after watching you for over 2 years. I live like 5 minutes from that airport! Barrow County Airport, or Northeast Georgia Regional.
There sure are a pile of good people there, and good food around too.
I had a 1979 Archer II for about 6 years and loved it! I did not pinch butts. I didn’t have the energy because every 6 months I had to crawl under the plane and degrease the belly (tell the owner of that one it’s legal…don’t be afraid). Like to see you do more of these airplane reviews. Always enjoy your commentary. Come down here to Florida...we got a few planes you could check out....but wait until January or February....
Looks like Thomasville by the way....
YOU DID IT!!!! I knew you would make a aircraft review
This was a fantastic review. Man I miss flying.....
As an aviation student at UND and a car guy as well this video just merged two worlds I never thought would merge
Nice to see a plane review. I am personally a bigger fan of the Piper Cub but this will do. Awesome video dude!
