Police support for the channel, going to work towards my private pilot next year... love seeing ran down vehicles and plans brought back to life, great work brother!
I’m loving this channel because of how abandoned airplanes are setting tied down and the 182 is my favorite aircraft ever manufactured by Cessna . Like to be working with you on this project. Keep up the amazing work
Wow, you really undersold how much work you put into it in order to get a 15yr old out of annual plane flying. Yeah, the paint is in great shape but cosmetics aside, that's still a lot of work/risk buying it.
This reminds me of a problem I had with a sump on a C172 after checking the fuel. Some time after sumping I noticed a small puddle on the ground with drops of fuel coming from sump now and then. The valve in the sump most probably got stuck so I put the tester into the sump again, pushed it in a few times and this made it even worse - fuel started flowing out. I ended up standing there on the apron and covering the hole with a finger for more than half an hour until they found an empty barrel for the fuel (there was 25gal of fuel in that tank). Luckily this didn't happen mid flight on a long cross country flight.
thank you for answering my prompt if you are changing out the 2 blade for 3 blade i would chang the CON I0470 to a LYC I0540 as well as installing VG on the plane and stol kit
I am an A&P and 36 year 68 182 owner I always replace all the tape as the fuel softens the glue and the new cell will be in there about 20 years you do not want to do this again. Also there is a plastic vent tube inside the balder which some times does not get reinstalled. My big concern would be the engine camshaft, lifters and cylinders. I think You will have to overhaul it.
I see the tail looks all clean and shiny now!

Great job gentlemen!
Great job! It must feel pretty good to get the plane back to your home airport. I'm a CFII only 150 NM from you in KTYS.

Glad you enjoy it!
Congrats....182 O-470 continental is awesom engine....
This airplane don't have a 047 engine, and that good.
My first cross country was to Gadsden Al if that is where you were. Never finished my private pilot though. I need to start back.
KGAD, you definitely need to start back flying awesome. No time like the present. Good luck
The work is fascinating. The background music just takes away from the dialogue.
Looks like you repaired all the holes in the cowling and painted and cleaned that up too. Looks nice!
Unfortunately I had to buy a used cowling. Thankfully it was already painted and ready to put on the airplane
That makes sense. Glad it all worked out.

Love the sound

Oh that stinks having to hold your finger there for that long. Glad it was an easy fix though.
That looks like a airport in north Alabama,around the Cullman area i think..anyways nice channel.
Shelby County, Where you located?
any tips on how I could find a C182 in similar situation? I'd love to do the same thing.
Go to local airports and ask the fbo if they know of any planes sitting around.
if the problem turns out to be the fuel Blatter you might as well change both
Agreed, we changed one bladder now I will be replacing the second one. Stay tuned for more videos on the 182 project.

Lol can I have some money for the new engine. But yes that would be awesome to have more ponies under the cowl.

Those fuel bladders are not fun taking out because I’ve seen how it’s removed
No it wasn't fun at all, and it was super cold that day too.
What did you pay for the plane and how much do you expect to pay to complete the project
I am estimating around 70,000 when done. That includes the new instruments.
Should be able to sell for $120,000 so not to bad profit 👍
Jonathan, I’m buying a restored old 182. Any way I can reach you by phone to ask you some dumb questions?
Email me at daybreakaviation@gmail.com
better u use mic. can't hear ur voice
I agree trying to find one now for future videos.
It would have been sad to see it scraped.
Totally agree, I would hate to see good airplanes go to the scrap yard. If yo haven't already check out my videos on the Abandoned Baron B 55
You are better than Jimmy's World and Rebuild rescue ,as the lie and fake , they are a waste of time.
Thank you for the complement. I do try to keep it real and half way educational. Again thank you
yes you are doing well, @@Daybreakaviation
