#PLANESAVERS!
"None of it makes any sense, folks!"... should become Plane Saver's tagline! That's precisely reason why I love this whole project and show!!
Sébastien Reichel If it made sense what fun would that be? 😀
Yes and no, I am from 1946, Denmark (EU) and it makes a lot of sense to me.
Radial engines ... if they don't leak oil they are out of oil.. ha ha.
And old British motorbikes!!!
Figured out how to keep my 985 from leaking oil leave the oil setting on the wing in the jug, my agcat only has 12000 hrs and it came from Louisiana
Air Force veteran : " No major overhaul till we can no longer jump and clear the oil puddle."
@@rickey5353 LOL!!!
gmcjetpilot Radials don’t leak they’re marking their territory ! Lol
God, I love this series. Someone from Buffalo Air deserves an Order of Canada. You guys make EVERYONE happy!
Loved the opening sequence of flying with Joe!
And me... Very emoitional though! 😍🤩
That landing looked great, Joe is an old hand at taildrgger in crosswind.
👍
My favourite line in Episode 2:
"In my now Canadian mind...."
You got that right Radial Barbie. You're the best thing we ever got from Germany. And that's spoken from a guy who has a profound love of German cooking.
💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Ok, but you got to admit , their beer is pretty good too.
@@bobbydouzepis8260 Yes the beer is good, but the Belgians make some amazing beers! They proclaim the beer from the Abbey at Westvleteren is the best in the world, i only tried it once and it was.......ok! Westmalle triple is my favourite!
@@bobbydouzepis8260 beer ? What the hell is that ?
@@bobbydouzepis8260 You win. Occasionally a good car every ten years too.
Joe (Dad) says, Do I have any choice and with the smile he answers his own question!
Well with a camera pointed at him what else will he say :-)
Yup, you are right. You don't have to tell Buffalo Joe twice to look at an old airplane.
"Stretch that sucker 40" so you can put 2 people in it! " Put a PT6A-67B turboprop engine to power that sucker and you'll be set and it will climb like a tom cat fighter ~ ,! Great to see Benjamin and Bobby on the scene taking measurements what could possible go wrong? Cheers from USA!
Hi miss doing radio and electronic stuff for your fine family,wish ya all good health and prosperity.
Great shot of the landing. Joe makes it look so easy. It must feel so good to finally have it there.
Joe says he turned it over to the co-pilot to land the plane so he wouldn't look bad.
Don't question why it's blown up Mikey, you, your workers and volunteers hard work is a rarity these days. All of you are honest down to earth people another rarity not just on TH-cam but in general. You all deserve the success that you have achieved. 👍👍👍 From Western Australia 🇦🇺
Yeah buddy! We are all here watching! Great job mikey! Loving the new project! So cool to see Bobby and Benjamin on the show again. Glad your keeping them busy ;)
Hey Mikey, LOVE YOUR DC3 of course! Been catching up on your shows, this is nice to see no snow and ice...LOL...Living in Michigan hearing you say..." it's - 33 F outside " would make annnyone living here hide deep inside their homes!! LOL Here is some interesting history for you and your dad. I live in Roseville, Michigan...it is a direct suburb of Detroit. Eastgate shopping center was MICHIGAN'S FIRST COMMERCIAL AIRPORT......sadly it's a shopping plaza now.......there are some photos anyone can look up online, but Roseville was TERRIBLE with their record keeping and history, my house was built in 1930 and even I cannot get annnnything from it ! No photos...nothing ! They really removed alot of character in this town, only some old buildings remain. The city loves to collect our taxes but does extremely little for the town! I hope to see you guys fly here, Selfridge AFB is close to my house.....we get presidents landing here....so it might be worth it? : ) I know for a fact, Clinton, Bush JR and Biden landed there! : )
Your Father is one cool dude, Mikey!
Good to see you back. You’ve created a phenomenon. 🇨🇦🇬🇧
Consistent dedication and love of the actual work has rewarded you, and all of us who cheered all of you, got it done. Thank you to all.
While I LOVED Ice Pilots and this is why I am here - I find Plane Savers infinitely more watchable.
Yeah, no faux “reality” scripting.
Mikey and Team. Awesome to have you back in my home.
Outstanding! Bobby & Benjamin hard at it, ya gotta love it! Just love UR Stellas giggle, make myQueen and I smile every time. 👍😎❤🎅❤😎👍
Let us not forget the indefatigable Spaghetti Don. That's a long way to drive. I barely make it to Toronto from Montreal before losing it.
Another cool video to warm up a winters day here in NZ. Really enjoy listening to your dad and also Stella, lovely to see Bobby is onboard with this too. All the best
Thank you Ken. I really like the adventure and working with all these people.
I love how Joe always thinks of the fans.. first thing he said when he gets of the aircraft is, there’s your people over there.. better let them in to have a look!! Love that kind of attitude .. Loves to share his passion 😎
Dontcha know you made my days with those episodes of DTD . And cannot wait till DR-1 series starts.
All my best to you Stella, Stuka and the gang who will help you with the new project.
And a big hello from Anchorage, Alaska !!!
Bobby, benjerman what's up glad you guys are going to be in the project
This I think will be a very interesting season with both the future project/adventure for DTD and the major restoration/rebuild project that is the Fokker DR.1 replica. I look forward to the next episode, especially Chuck's reaction when he see's the flat pack Fokker.
Also, can't wait for that reaction.
@@bobbydouzepis8260 looking forward to your project. Should be very interesting. Kent Allen, New Brunswick.
This was one of the best daily shows of ANY type in history...I really , really miss the show, all of the people and DTD.
Thanks Mikey. Can hardly wait to see the episodes to come. Huntsville Ontario Canada 🍁 👍
DTD is a beautiful winner and should be kept flying now...I'm certain that paid flight tours would have much interest in every Canadian city.
Watching Joe fly DTD is awesome. Total pride in what you've accomplished. Awesome job by you and the team. Must feel great to be home.
Total pride there in both the pilots faces. on final approach.
This makes perfect sense. You did something special with this airplane. Not only did you restore a genuine historical aircraft, you caused a lot of people to enjoy it almost as much as you did. I watch ypur vids and smell old airplane. Thanks!
Big fan sense Ice pilot's. Awesome job Mikey and Stella.
Best comment - "Do I have an option" That is pure gold.
Good to see Bobby back!
Love the 54 Nash , good looking old car . I'd sure drive it . Looking forward to this next airplane build , and DTD sure looks great .
I stopped watching Ice Pilots for this? HELL YES I DID!
OMG those cars and fire truck, then pan out for a DC-3, heaven!
God bless you Mikey
Too funny...loved Joe's reaction when you cornered him...lol...
Priceless
I am in love with DC-3’s ever since I was 6 when transported in one after the war from Semarang to Batavia (now Djakarta) in 1945 in a military version with seats alongside the fuselage and cargo stacked in the centre.
It's always a good day when I get a new Plane Savers episode notification. Can't wait for the next one!!
Hope Bobby and his Tutor are coming along well. Hope he can join in on the Triplane rebuild.
Hi Mikey! The quality of the video is outstanding! Great job! The content piqued my interest and I can't wait to see the project unfold. Loved Dad's (Joe) calm excitement. He's one of a kind. Later...
Barn Stormer! We used to have mock fights, when I was a little girl, for Snoopy vs the Red Baron! Had to be a draw, so we could see them again!!
you don’t need to know anything about airplanes to love this super cool story❤️
Anything manmade can be made again, given enough Talent, Time & Treasure..... Pretty sure you have all that & more. This should be fun Mikey!
Wow This is why I was hooked to every episode of Plane Savers.... Fantastic..... You are so lucky Mikey your Dad is so watchable Thank you Look fwd to every second of the new series
Mikey, Buffalo Joe is without a doubt extremely proud of you for all you and your team got accomplished. Great job, and good luck on your nearest project.
00:33 and watching Plane savers in Malta :) good night / morning :)
You guys will do great with the project. The wings will be a lot of work but you'll get it done. Look forward to seeing it all come together!
Great episode. Glad thevteam is back. I have every faith that if anyone can pull this off its you guys. My money is on Stella. I have limited German.so wouldn't argue with her.
Awesome to see DTD in Flypast magazine.
All the best
Greg
Welcome home. Thanks for bringing it to OSH. It helped make my work trip a little better. Hope to see it again next year.
I’m really starting to feel so excited about this new project! And another series of: PLANE SAVERS!!!
I’m going to build a scale RC Fokker DVII myself so I’m sure I’ll learn so much from you guys (and girls).
Great stuff!!!
Excellent video Mikey and Stella is RIGHT with the spelling It's Great that you are all back again.. The Void has been filled once more Joe's comment !! Priceless Mate ....Keep up the great work Tony Australia
Welcome back Bobby. We thought you’d gone off to Hollywood to star in Top Gun 2 ;-)
Outstanding! Before long Mikey will have a complete air force :)
Thanks.....great video. Looking forward to DR-1, sticks, metal bits and fabric...!!!!
Love the Hay River Ford/American LaFrance engine.
Great job Mickey I really love what you do to save old aviation and hope your hand feels well
Good luck with the restoration. I'm eager to see it when it's restored
Great to see Bobby and Benjamin again! Mikey and the team you create Can Do It!
I like the fuzzy white dice . A lot of air crews during the 30,a and 40,a had these little treasures on their aircraft.
Mikey, I like the bottle opener on the filing cabinet. great country that.
Brilliant Mikey, and all the best for the re build will be watching along on the Journey!
Great to see Bobby and Benjamin.
FINALLY a plane not affected by the microchip crisis that we have today! (Although this vid was done last year lol!!) great video! when the border opens up (hopefully soon) i would love to fly up there and visit!
I can't watch enough of your program, love it!
Hey Mikey,
Stella wins regardless of spelling.
Working on these aircraft is a "win win" for everyone.
Hi Bobby! Good to see you again.
Hello to you too my friend.
Fun times for DTD. One last mission yet? Hope she winters well in Red Deer. Certainly deserves it. I suspect to get the Dr-I triplane flying by March some new skill sets are certainly going to be needed. Looking forward to the skill sets being used to build a WW1 fighter. Plane savers 2.👍🛩🛩🛩👍
Excellent episode!! Glad to be a part of something different and very positive in a world of craziness. This is the best!! 😍🛫🛫✌️
👍👍👍👍
Great job getting dtd home, glad you all made it home safe. This is such a cool project cant wait to see it fly again. Take care
Can't wait to see the ressurection of the "Green Baron"!
Mike Lafferty Good one!
Hi, followed DTD from the beginning and look forward to the latest adventure.
I had a tip truck the same as that fuel tanker, back in the 70s. Mine was fitted with F700 running gear with spider wheels instead of disc wheels. I used to put in logging tracks in the highlands of Tasmania. Cheers from Mike in Adelaide South Australia.
DTD over sunny southern Alberta...fantastic!
I’m so excited to have new things to look forward to! Go B! Glad you’re still with us!
It reminds me of the old "A Team" series from the 80's when they they used to go into a shed with a few bit's and pieces of wood and metal and come out with a working tank and destroy the baddies and Colonel John Hannibal Smith always used to say with a smile "I love it when a plan comes together" :-)
Mikey, If there's one more big adventure this year for DTD, is there any chance you could lrt us know the takeoff time & date? I sure would like to hop in the truck and pop down to Red Deer to see DTD take to the air once again. I was not able to drive to Montreal to lend a hand with the project, but YQF is close by. So, Pretty Please?
I love watching your dad in the left seat, landing or taking off. It took quite a few hours to make it look that smooth and easy. Always a pleasure!
Now, an honest-to-goodness WWI rotary engine? Should we all get busy roughing out parts, or do you have a _cunning_ _plan_ ? Hope I'll be available to do more than watch via TH-cam on Project Red Baron. Flying by March? This will be interesting!
Wow, one heck of a road trip for Spaghetti Don there! Probably the best part of North America to drive through, though (little traffic, great scenery).
Loved the cockpit view of DTD coming in! That was great! Looking forward to see this project get underway. Looks like you've got a solid frame to work with there. 👍
I'd imagine there's many projects just in North America alone that will keep this TH-cam channel going for YEARS. 😉 Going to be a great run! So glad I subbed! Thanks, Mikey! 🍻
Ahh, the only way to start the day, a new episode of PLANE SAVERS. Can it be done, of course it can.
Well it wasn't as bad as I expected... I was real worried as the crate was opened as to what was going to be found inside of it.
I was thinking there had to be metal work, bent frames and the like, but this actually looks doable with the frame like that.
Now best of luck on this next stint Mike! You got us across the pond interested too.
Good morning Mikey: Plane Savers, breakfast and a mug of tea - Normal Service resumed. Fascinating episode Mikey 👍
What a project!! Loved the landing footage of DTD Mikey!!
It's so great to be back in Plane Savers mode👍 I can't wait to see progress start on this plane.
Still hard at it hey Bobby🍻
Can't help myself. The adventure calls. Love the people, love the country.
As the vid started and Joe is heading into his home strip with DTD I'm wondering how may times has he landed there, enjoyed very much how thrilled you all were to have her home, very neat! You know I love the Dakota's, but I am excited to start this new adventure with you all.
Well, of course, Stella is correct! *Gesamtgewicht* with an "s" not a "z" (English translation: total weight). *Nutzlast* (English: payload) ✊
Beat me to it!
so is this an original Fokker triplane? Back then they wrote the s like the write a z today
Yes you are right!
Aber Naturlich!
Yep sound about right. Stella was right.
Buffalo Joe is so at home in the dc3 that he checks the phone as soon as the plane 3 wheels touched. Legend
Boom, great to have you back in our living room, is this going to be self funded like DTD. good luck Mikey (& team).
So well made, good to see you and your old man back on the screen
This time I'm following to the start. Patey, Trent, Chops and now Planesavers, I see a trend in the channels I'm following in the last year....
It's good to finally see what you're up against.. That is some challenge! Tell me, could Bobby get any more laid back. He's so chilled nothing seems to get to him!
Im actually very high strung. Its the extra 50 pounds I gained eating pizza in the first season thats keeping me on the ground :-}
Enjoyed the video Mikey especially the cockpit of DTD with Joe landing👍😎
Future projects after you get the Fokker flying, how about getting an Avro Vulcan back in the air!! 😁👍😎
Hot Rod Joe, " Give it a 40" stretch"
"If you lead the Troops Mikey, it will be possible"
These planes are so amazing.
A brilliant project and new life for a great old plane. Thank you for all your interesting information and trouble taken making this video. Ex Airforce Rhodesia.
Ah Joe the legend, only he could roll out on landing and check his phone !
Good luck with the DR1, you lost the bet with Stella Mikey.
Looking forward to the series, all the best from Brisbane Australia.
Love... Love pop's opinions on the projects... Can't wait till next episode 😊
Awesome keep her flying let her spread her muscles
Of course it will Fokking fly, does anyone doubt Mikey, the crew and their commitment?.
Welcome to your new home Delta Tango Delta 👍
Hello Plane Savers World!!
I always feel honored when a famed TH-camr I respect ends up using the same music in one of their videos that I've used in one of mine. Great minds do indeed think alike...
👍👍👍
I think I'd like to drive the 34 ford the cars are awsome the planes are great please dont stop making videos I wish ice pilots never stopped
