Nice! Aircraft ownership was fun. I wish I still had my piper warrior. I can't believe the cost of used aircraft now, even the cost of airplane rental was $45 an hour wet when I learned, and now I’m seeing prices of 175 dry for a fourplace. I can’t see how young person can afford to fly the minimum hours to get themselves into a aviation career.. enjoy your spring weather.-Bill
Hi Ron. Yes, I was lucky to fly a king air 300 for a furniture mfg for about 15 years. Ended my career with 9000 accident-free hours. Good catch. Thanks for your support of my videos. I sure appreciate it. -Bill
As for the Massey Ferguson, really like the older ones. First tractor I learned to drive on my uncle’s farm. Love the look of the old 1100, 1150, 1155. Thanks for the entertaining video! Josh from northwestern Ohio!
Good morning Josh, thanks for sharing your memories from your Uncles farm. Those memories are important. I'm coming out your way April 8 to see the solar eclipse. -Bill
Thank you Chris! I thought it was pretty cool too. I enjoyed making it. I attended the U also and ended up flying a king air 200-300 based in DBQ. Hope you achieve your flying goals.
I remember I started going in the early 80's. I remember seeing the orange Allis Chamlers both there. We all know that's been a long time ago. Boy how times have changed.
That treadle pedal you looked at is I believe only on the Grand L60 series the other Kabota tractors the treadle pedal is a lot bigger… a cross between a skateboard and a boomerang I say. lol I’m not a fan! The one you looked at, I could get used to 👍
Ha ha, I had fun designing the helicopter, and I think it looks great. Thanks for commenting on it, Aaron. You are only the third person to mention it. It's terribly warm here; I hope you're staying cool. -Bill
I bought my 1976 cessna 180J in 1982 for 25,000 dollars and I see today it is worth between 150,00 to 200,000 dollars. Keep the videos coming Bill, second life after aviation.
@@billburkhart I was only joking about the helicopter, but a teaser would be a great idea .. too long between your content, this will keep your subscribers engaged,!
Hey Bill. $4k grapple...think i'd pass...I have a brush crusher and works just fine...Thanks for tour..
Hi John, yeah that was too rich for my blood. Hope all is well out your way-Bill
Loved the tractors, implements, and new tools. Beautiful weather here in Jacksonburg W.Virginia.
Glad you’re having good weather out your way Dean.
Dave from windy Adrian Minnesota Always enjoy your videos!
Thank you so much for the kind comments Dave. I sure appreciate it.-Bill
Part 1 Excellent job and with some helper

Fabulous Bill, I had a Cessna 180 and a Cessna 188 Ag truck.

Bill, did you fly for a living before you retired? I enjoy all your videos. Ron, from LaPorte, Minnesota.

That is like a kid being at Disney world. Some awesome tractors there . I would be so excited there.
Go someday Gary, it's fun to see once. -Bill
Good job Bill. This show is on my list for maybe next year!
Hi Dan, yeah 1 trip to see it would be enjoyable. Hope your doing well-Bill
I loved your opening to this video. I spent 4 years at UD majoring in Aviation many years ago.
Thank you Chris! I thought it was pretty cool too. I enjoyed making it.

Good morning and happy Sunday, thanks taking time to share that information, much appreciated-Bill
Bill, i just wanted to see rhe helicopter again!
Ha ha. That was my favorite intro so far.
Have a great weekend -Bill
@@billburkhart A BiG BOSS move I would say! Impressed the heck out me!
Aaron, it was fun!!
@@billburkhart i bet it was ,. Do you still have it for your use? Keep us in your prayers dealing with weather, no power. Ugh!
@@aaronburford5701 Aaron yes I still have the helicopter vid for future years. Just have to figure out where it’ll fit.
Hold it! Hold it! You have a helicopter??? That is top level from a business standpoint! Love it! Liked, Viewed, Shared and Subscribed! I am hooked!

@aaronburford5701 Thanks buddy

Bill at this point, you can just do a teaser video on what's to come in front of the helicopter! That would be so satisfying to me! 😅
Interesting. I wonder how that would be received?

@@aaronburford5701 Aaron, I know your right. But I always promised myself to never be slaved to making videos so it remains fun. -Bill
@@billburkhart Makes sense and I support that. Just know you have a fan that is anticipating your next!
