I thought the wings were small but when next to a person it's actually humongous. The drone shot made it clearer as well. Lots of love were really put into this!
I am closely following this great project and I am very excited as well as looking forward to seeing your progress. I congratulate you for this great work. Greetings from La Paz BCS Mexico.
Great restoring C-17, great video. Rewiring plane is almost like real deal. Question if only inboard turbine engines only, what used outboard engine necelles? Waiting for more
@@flightsystemsrc thanks info. I wondered the cost for 2 is bad but 4. Long as 2 is power enough that is what’s matters. Can’t wait to see fly again after rescuing.
Look like you’ve got quite a few Brit’s like myself watching this. Loved the TV show back in the day and remember see Ali flying it at Blackbush model show later.
I believe about a year.But Collin had a crew of guys working on it everyday. Lucas is just one man working on the weekends. But it will get done.Thank you for watching 😃
I remember this being built by Colin Strauss in uk, am loving the care and quality workmanship on the restoration. Excellent 👍
Thank you
Is coming alone , very soon will be ready , great job Vallejo, thank you sal for sharing.

Fantastic to see the love and care in restoring this C17. Will you be keeping her in her RAF livery ?
I get the real RAF C17 fly over my house
Im not sure if Lucas will keep the RAF liver, but well find out soon☺
Thanks for yet another very entertaining update. Great, great job, and all the hard work going into it. Guess the wait will be worth it. Keep it up.
Thank you for your comment and for watching
You have some major skills !
Lucas is doing his best. major passion

The plane was originally built with 4 turbines, but later changed to 2 turbines. the outboard nacelles will be kept empty.

lucas , nice job on the wing and i like that c-17 baseball cap.
Really nice work Lucas ….Superb job
Great Vid ! loving this plane and project, maybe when it's done it could be a podcast episode, keep up the great work !
Thank you! Absolutely, when we have more complete we would love to come on your show to talk about it.😊
@@flightsystemsrc that would be awesome !
Im anxious for the flight.
Oh yes! We are as well. Thank you for watching
Great! Keep it going 🙌
Thank you! Yes, it will continue over this summer.
A few questions how much lift will the plane have plus how much could it carry?
The complete weight would be around 260 lbs - but i don't this we will put any cargo in her😆🤣😅
I have a question ... please excuse my ignorance !!..... will it be powered by just the two jets ?? ...or are you intending to put in four?
I was originally powered by 4 turbines then later on just 2 turbines - and now we will keep it as only 2
How long did it take for the original owner to build and fly this model
I believe about a year.But Collin had a crew of guys working on it everyday. Lucas is just one man working on the weekends. But it will get done.Thank you for watching 😃
I think you can fly with it in the cargo bay
Yes- it has flown with the cargo door open - we will hope to do it again👍
How long to complete?
Hopefully flight test this fall
👌
🤓👍🇨🇵
