    I love watching you guys rebuild these plans. I can relate to the meticulous efforts you put into what you do.
    I had learned alot from my dad helping him as I was young. He was a crop duster for over 30 years. He had a 170B for pleasure flying witch I soloed in. Did my cross county duel with my CFI. Was going to do my cross country solo the next weekend, but my instructor borrowed the plane and wrecked it! That put an end to my hopes of a pilots licence.
    Flying was the thing I loved the most in life.
    Funny how one person's decision can affect another's path in life.

    Jason, I want it! I want this Piper 160. It looks amazing! Great job on it! I live here in Sebastian, Florida. Close to Vero Beach, Florida, where Piper makes their planes. What do I need to do to get it? You can fly it right down here to Vero Beach airport, or even Sebastian Airport, which is even closer to me. Literally 5 minutes from my home. Please tell me what I need to do to win it? I've subscribed to your channel from the beginning. I've liked every episode, because I really like you and all you do. I love watching each episode. You're welcome here anytime, even if the plane goes to another. This is a gorgeous area with lots of airports. I'm close to Valkaria Airport and Melbourne International Airport in Melbourne, Florida. Sebastian has some really cool aircraft flying around all the time, not to mention all the skydivers falling from the sky all the time. We're a little secret area here in Florida. Breeze airways flies out of Vero weekly. Thanks for sharing and including us as a part of your crew. Love it. Happy Thanksgiving to you all.

    • @Brian_Techie
      @Brian_Techie Місяць тому +3

      It's starting to look like this project is not getting completed as they can't work on it unless an A&P is present and it doesn't appear that they have the funding to complete it. I only watch 401 videos and check comments once and awhile. They took on a project that turned out to be way bigger than initially thought. The people that have donated to this project probably aren't very happy right now.

    • @derrynj
      @derrynj Місяць тому

      ​@@Brian_TechieWhen did they say they didn't have enough funding? If you watched the explanation vid, you'd know it's down to the airport forcing Greg out of the airport as the main A&P maintenance guy. Reading between the lines it sounded like they did that intentionally so that they wouldn't be able to use the airport for the job. Why? who knows. I don't quite understand why they have to use the resident A&P, but it sounded like Greg was no longer allowed to sign off on anything since he's no longer the airports 'guy'. That was 3 months ago so seeing him back sounds like something changed.
      Have faith.
      And also, people who donated to the project shouldn't be mad - you don't give a donation expecting anything in return. Unless they are misusing funds, and I see no evidence of that, there's nothing to be mad about.

      @@Brian_Techie for me, 401 is Sam Ganow, so I was hoping the project would be completed. However, I always see comments about 401, and they are ignored, something like:
      What will happen to 401?
      - thanks for your interest in the channel
      The accident occurred on February 1, 2024. I hope I have said wrong and that they will continue with the Cessna 401 soon. I do not agree that people collaborate without expecting anything in return; they collaborated for that plane or for the memory of Mr. Ganow.
