What an absolute gentleman and such a great project to do along with his son. Please follow him up down the track to see his progress.
I sure hope so. Thank you for your support! :-)
I was fortunate enough to attend this interview in person with Bryan and John (behind the scenes). John is SOOOO passionate about building this Bearhawk LSA! I cannot wait to see more progress from John and ultimately, the end result. With his attention to detail and love for building, I know his airplane will be spectacular! Very inspiring!
Good times. Happy to have you there as well. Can't wait to see your project flying soon!
Can’t wait to see your build in action too, Rob. Would love to catch a ride in it one day!
@@nicholaslambert6390 You bet! I just received my insurance quote for when we start flying, so we're not far off!
Love the ending with your son! I have great memories working with my dad. Something I will cherish for a lifetime. Building your aircraft with your son is also family time!
Thank you for watching!
This is one of your best interviews with a home builder who lives his passion. His love is his family and when you get the opportunity to combine your love and your passion you get to involve your children. I know his son will remember these days his entire life. Thank you Bryan for another great in-depth interview with a plans scratch build he brought out some great tips on low cost tooling ideas for people to get ideas from. I’m sure people will rethink how they approach their build ideas from here on out. Maybe I don’t need a sheet metal shop to scratch build? Maybe just some simple homemade tooling to get through the big pieces? Or just visit your local sheet metal shop and have a few of the long pieces constructed for you and take it from there.... food for thought. Fly Safe Bryan!!
Thank you for continuing to shop up here. YES... Scratch Building can be very rewarding and fun. Time consuming, but the point is the learn along the way new skills and new experiences.
Bryan, I enjoy listening to the people you interview. Their insight to their specific build or problems they encounter are as different as the aircraft or systems they help the develop in experimental world of aviation. Hard tooling is a trad-off in determining just how much time or money one wants to spend in developing these tools. I’m a big fan of hard tooling because I spent several years developing composite tooling for The Boeing Co. Keep the interviews coming and we will be watching Bryan. Take care and Fly Safe!
A true champion, in the spirit of can do! Thanks John i really appreciate your thoughtul and quality build process. Keep going! this will be great!
I found the tooling ideas so incredibly helpful, and is making me reconsider using a wing kit for my future partial scratch cub build. Thank you!!!
You... are Very welcome! Thank you for watching!
awesome video, John doing a great job, great to his son involved that will create life time memory's for his son!
We’ll done, most informative and instructive Bearhawk LSA video on the wings I’ve seen. Thx for doing this.
WOW!! Another great video...wish I was younger and could get into flying...oh well, I can watch these videos and fly vicariously through the flyers you interview!
No problem. You KEEP WATCHING and I will KEEPING MAKING MORE! :-)
Experimental Aircraft Channel just discovered your channel. Love it.
@@1950harleycharley Excellent! Thank You so much!
Great video....the builder really explained it well
Thanks! Thank you for taking the time to watch and also engage here.
Great video Bryan. Really neat to see a plans build. I have a new appreciation for those builders. Thank you.
Thank you for watching! Scratch Building can be VERY rewarding for sure.
14:00 Am impressed with what this builder has accomplished and his commitment to putting family first. Takes determination to accomplish something meaningful given just 30 minutes or one hour at a time.
Thanks! Excellent video of an impressive build and builder!
Great episode. Barrows' wing designs are just beautiful.
These are great builder visits! So incredibly happy for all these builders that get to realize their dreams!
I have high blood pressure so my dreams of becoming a pilot have gone down in flames but I still follow aviation and enjoy seeing the developments in aviation. My most enjoyable flights were in Cubs, Champs, and a Maule Rocket. Low and slow is the way to go if you just love being in the air.
Anything with wings... get's you up there. Thanks for watching!
Why not fly ultralight?
Yeah..like others have said...Can't go far, but UL's mite be an alternative and in your future...I like the Phantom...Starting yrs ago liking the "Challenger", but, now, the Phantom ultralight looks more manageable....
Seeing this in my feed made me smile today. Fellow Bearhawk LSA scratch builder here, building a 9’ brake currently.
Great interview and even better build. Can’t wait for an update on this one Bryan.
Outstanding interview.
Good job John.
This guy's gonna do it! Thank you and bon voyage!
This is AMAZING!!!
Wow!!! Maybe I don't need to buy a kit? My new hero!
Good stuff. welldone
Great ! Nice tidy work area. Keep it up !
I want a bearhawk 5 so bad. Great video
Good question's, and complete answers. The tips are the best.
Only one comment, always couriers only $'s spent. I trust and know each region has its own price, just ballpark #'s helps.
Thanks again
wow~ Genius!!
This dude is a airplane building machine....!!!! And, the shop ain't bad, either...Honestly, I don't think he really testing his skills...Given the time, money, and space ( the magic 3 in any type of aviation...from R/c to full-scale), I think he could seriously tackle a twin or quad...
How about an update?
John Brannon, what is the latest on your lsa build.
Is there any way that we can get an update on his build. It doesn't look like he has a UA-cam channel
No follow up. was the kit finished?
No comments on progress, would like a update.
how does this guy work and still have time to do this ?
Like he said, just like taking a dump ev'ry day...Take 30 minutes, a hour, a coupla hours...but..take a "dump " ev'ry day....And, when you done, you can take the "packing paper " and tryn wipe the grin off your face...hehe !!!
