Fabric would be on my list well before powder coat
WOOOOOOOHHHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! So nice to see airplane work again!!!!
Nothing like it!!! Great edit!
Congrats, Jonas. Now you own a real plane and an ultralight, just like me.........well, I own the ultralight, and my wife says the plane is at least half hers.
Would love an overall cost breakdown after this rebuild is done. This is something that would be in my price range 😂
thanks for askin for this it would be cool to see a lagit entry costs
I've owned a Challenger II light sport since 2004. I've cleaned it with lemon pledge since day one. It's cheap, cleans well, even on the lexan windscreen. I clean my Pitts S2 with it as well. Get a box of industrial size cans...will last you forever. Smells good too. Great plane purchase man, you'll love it!
And it leaves a lemony fresh fragrance too...
I have an idea. You can put your basic VFR minimums and then put an iPad in the centre of your panel. Then yuo can get a Garmin GLD 51 or similar to give you GPS and ADAHRS. Plus you can remove the iPad to do flight planning at home.
That looks like a whole lot of fun!!
Thanks for sharing!
Very cool...I recently purchased plans for an Affordaplane. Hope you're back in the air soon!
I got the plans last year, have been watching Jon at tipoftheweek, its very interesting. Will probably never build one, but I still have learned a lot. I should start socking money away for one.....
@@orbitalair2103 I'm waiting on a couple of doors to build my table...then I can start.
LoL, I'm thinking, man, he should just strip it, blast it, and coat it. Just as that thought finishes, you say the exact same thing. Nice.
I remember when the AirBike came out! I built a Team Aircraft Max-103 from the company in Tennessee. almost finished it before I was nagged into selling it. I sold it to the uncle of a friend of mine here in SC. He'd probably sell it to you. It even has a Kawasaki 440 in the box, never been flown.
When you say “don’t think I’m not giving up on that” it’s a double negative that means you’re actually giving up on that 😂
Love the simplicity I would fly it.
Almost bought one 2 years ago ! I had a huge crush on this airplane must a lot of fun to fly !
Oh.....and welcome to "the dark side"...ultralights, that is.😎
Awesome video, I am just glad that you got an airplane. Looking forward to more videos.
Looks like loads of fun ! Bless ya ! Enjoy
I flew a 2 place Challenger with a Rotax 447, it performed quite well with two folks in it.
That is Super Cool. Get it some brakes though.
Looks like a total BLAST to fly!! Nice purchase!
Cool stuff Jonas!!! Good to see you play with planes again!!! Been missing you in the air!!!
Hey Jonas You could fly the Air bike while your fixing the Capella, and then Give it to Silvia (hopefully I spelled that right) So you two could fly together and separate some days. Just put a Helmet radio in it so you can talk while you fly together. I know she wasn't totally there yet when the crash happened. But she will be one day, like giving her her own car.
The Angry Dragon.......what crash? Oh dear, i must have missed that what happened?
@@okgo8315 Last October they wrecked the Capella, thats why its in pieces behind the Air bike. and Jonas has not really been in the air all winter. He has to rebuild it, and is taking the time to make the upgrades he wanted to turn it into a bush plane. The Airbike will at least get him flying again, and once he gets the capella fixed and then Gets Defiant built. He can let Silvia fly the capella after she has her License and the Airbike before.
Angry Dragon....thanks, i don't know how i missed such an important/unfortunate event but obviously glad they are both ok...cheers👍🇬🇧
@@okgo8315 never a problem, it was two videos, so it was easy to miss.
@@theangrydragon4746, you don't seem angry.
Near us us "The Happy Dragon" where my awesome wife and I went to eat for our anniversary. :)
Cool! Can't wait for you to be back in the air in your own plane.
Stoked you got another plane. The Airbike has always been a short list plane for me. I just bought Kitfox 5 bush gear from John Roberts. He told me flying ultralights was the most fun he'd had flying. Can't wait to see this thing fly
Finally: an airplane video!
That’s going to be fun! Can hardly wait to see it fixed up and flying.
It'll get you into the air again. I'm thinking about getting an ultralight. I want a Trike. Uses a beefed up hang glider wing.
I have a nice trike for cheap. In storage and 25 hours.

Congratulations Jonas, I'm looking forward to seeing you getting back in the air!
Ho jonas! Glad to hear you again!
Love the ‘get to it’ attitude with the new airplane! Great to see you wanting to get back in the air. Would love updates on the Capella, and Defiance.
I have a bridge (Brooklyn) and a boat (USS Neversink)You might be interested in CHEAP....
great work, flying yourself is a real attitude builder.👍
Love you guys.
Congratulations 👏🎉 you both deserve it. Now we can get more videos 😉.
Jonas you and this little aircraft are going to make general avation grow by showing people that you don’t need to be independently wealthy to own an airplane.
Looks like a good time, enjoy! Be safe!
ได้เวลาประเทศอาเซียนว่าจะสร้างอากาศยานพื้นฐานได้ไม่โรงเรียนที่เกี่ยวกับการบิน
My ONLY issue with the air bike is that your legs are outside the fuselage. It just gives me the willys lol. Sweet project!!!
I'm here for this! Would be cool to see this thing in new condition lol have fun!
Yes!!!! I’m so ready for some flying footage again!
Made my day Jonas, been looking forward to a video like this. Woo hoo 👍🏻💪🏻
I want one of those !! 🛩
Oh congrats brother on the Air bike👍💯. Also, nice dig on old what's his name. 😁Jumping outa ma plane while filming it crash. STAGED FOR VIEWS! So getto
Congrat's on Air Bike!! Do you need to peddle it? Looking like a ways to, getting flight ready!! Only a one passenger?? Oh, older vid shows 2 seats!! Good luck with her!!!
Wow Jonas! What a great story about your early air bike flying. $1500 for a flying experience that looks incredibly fun. I really enjoyed the video of you flying your first air bike. Now that’s flying! Happy for you man!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Gotta say I sure miss those flying videos when you all were in the Kitfox! I know you have a lot going on and I hope you get back to some flying travel videos in the near future!
Jonas watch Jimmys world will give you some good ideas! Great vlog!
Not a bad project to have!
Way cool brother… That looks like a real blast… I’ve always liked Air bikes!
Definitely looking for Capella videos!
more power? Vne 60MPH and max 5 gals fuel!
The Part 103 speed limit is 63 mph at max power in level flight (different from Vne). Airbike Vne is 90 mph.
I'm thinking Yamaha Fazer?! yea, Yamaha.
yeah i have a yamaha fazer too!
w/ those foot pegs
and chopper seating
it should be called "Air Hog"
-- how fast and what load?
Another toy!!!!???!!!
Oh no! She found out you bought it!
Busted! haha
😬
@@JonasMarcinko Hahaha!😂
@@JonasMarcinko HAHAHAHAHA! Oops! 😆
Awesome, I really enjoyed watching that. After watching that other YT dude putz around with an "abandoned" twin engine Cessna 401, it's nice to see someone actually accomplish some goals in a project like this. You're the one who should be getting millions of views.
There are two twin Cessna rebuild videos. Stop being a hater. If it’s aviation it’s for me.
@@superskullmaster You're right, there's two twin engine Cessna guys. One is actually rebuilding a plane, and is hugely entertaining. I wasn't referring to him. The other one appears to be involved in a grift.
I still can't believe you sold the kitfox
Aloha. So what is up with theDefiant?
I need one!
Hey!! Airplane content. Maybe your channel will come back from the dead now
Powder coat long term is shit, it looks great but doesn’t bond well so if it gets a chip moisture crawls under it and corrodes the area around the chip.
Paint with a proper etch paint process if you want it to last
Get ahold of Rebuild Rescue
about time man. So happy for you. get back in the air. sell merch. Save the air bike.
Super exciting!
Get the motor work’n first
I flew an Airbike for several years (250 hours). One of the nicest flying planes ever.
Are you gonna put a Garmin panel in it???
Haha I should
you haven't shown your hangar build for a while. Is it done?
I showed this video to my wife and she looked at me like "is he nuts?". Then I had to explain that it's a "guy thing"......Stu
Lekker origineel pik. Er zijn al 10 van dit soort kanalen, pffffff.
Jumping out and crashing it was exactly what I was thinking. :-D :-D
Maybe someone else will get their first chance to solo in this air bike. If I'm right I wanna shot too.
Yes!!!!
Can you put a bomb on the 447 and share it with the Cappella ?
What’s market on these? One in California for 8500 with brs chute
You beat me to everything!🙄 just, haha
Wood wings. Be careful. I worked with an engineer on metal wings for the Airbike and also did a CAD design which widened the fuselage so your legs could go inside.
Congratulations brother but as M Patey says Back to Work ………..looks like fun
Hi Jonas, Is your new hanger at your house finished, and if so why aren't you working in it with all that insulation and heating??
Enjoy your videos.
I don't think it's done. Jonas is a busy man!
Can’t wait to see the air bike in your new hangar next to your house.
About the Capella. I know you are in love with that plane and I think you are trying to make it a bush plane. From an old pilot, a mechanical engineer, and the owner of an XLS, an XLS Super 100 (2), and a Fastback, I highly recommend leaving your Capella ....... STOCK !!!!!!!!! From high school to college, my friends and I came across several unfinished Capella planes that we purchased cheap. We modified the crap out of them. We learned over 160 mph, the rudder needs to be larger (we made 185 mph with clipped wings and a turbo BMW motorcycle engine). We learned to achieve a stable slow flight, we needed to lengthen the wingspan by 18 inches. The Capella wing is for cruising, not for slow flight. We installed wings from a Just which worked better than the Capella wings. We installed a bush-style swing arm suspension with shocks and a sway bar. Finally, after twisting two fuselages from excessive power, bending another, and cracking (to failure) the fourth fuselage (bush trim), we left the remaining two planes stock. We kept them for several years and used them for cruising, while we used aircraft from Just, Piper, Rans, and a KitFox for backcountry flying. Please leave your Capella for cruising. The fuselage isn't made for bush-type abusive landings and the wings will stall on you again if you try to cheat with power for a super slow landing. Get a real bush plane .....again. Thanks and be safe.
For sure! It needs engine power to fly slow. I'll keep it stock for the most part.
I just want to get it flying so we have a plane to travel in and then I can get back to work on Defiance
I'm building an AirBike from plans. I stumbled across this video, you should totally tag AirBike and Jordan Lake Aero so folks know where to go to emulate you...
Good idea
1 min in... my thoughts are... turbo phazer...
Hey Jonas, this new plane looks funny to fly ! Hello from france...
#ohship
Oh, and let Sylvia pick the color scheme. So long as it is not pink and/or purple.
Awesome brother I have a airbike with a Kawasaki 440 on it love my airbike
I had a John Deere snowmobile in the very early 80's that had a 440 Kawasaki in it - great engine.
Perfect plane for the better half to learn to fly in
I refuse to watch any video that doesn't at least include a cameo shot of Silvja! (Ok, I did this time, but never again!) %^)
haha noted!
Hell YES! Just picked up an ultralight myself.
Nice work, good to see you getting airborne soon! Be interested on your observations of flying characteristics of a well loaded Tandem vs new Airbike when the time comes.
Abandoned stuff seems to the latest TH-cam fad.
Worth messing with! And I said that before learning about the Robert's connection.
Buzzin nursing homes or something like that!?
Is the new one you bought still Part 103 compliant?
yes it is!
How is your house hanger progressing?
About time....all the best Jonas.
Never pass up a chance to take a jab at ol' Trevor..
That really *does* look like fun!
Love it
please, please number your episodes ços sometimes we miss and then dont know which order they are in. Looking forward to keeping up with you.
Thanks Jonas. We missed you!
