@Cindy Klenk I so agree Cindy,, Mike has the patience of Jobe, the mind of Thomas Edison, and the quality mindedness of street rod builder Jeff Lutz,, his work is incredible!
Without fail you educate and entertain with every episode. I truly hope TH-cam doesn’t ever loose any of your episodes. So I can watch every episode again with my kids and show them one of the most influential people of my life. Mike you are a legend and a gentleman.
I love this guy! One of the things I like is that even though his videos are sporadic as for the frequency when they come out, they are full of content that us craftsman tune into for. He hasn't given into the weekly video craze that a lot of other channels have. He has stayed true to the craft and hasn't turned it into a homemade TV show that ultimately is all about the subscriptions and add revenue...he's got nothing to prove, and has remained original and true to the mission...build awesome stuff!
Whether you are into aviation or not, watching the Mike and Silent Ron Show is infectious and makes me want to match his passion and energy on my own projects.

Hey Mike... I just wanted to take a second to thank you for making this past (really crappy ) year a little bit more bearable! Like your other viewers I can't get enough of your enthusiasm , excitement and ingenuity. Your passion for the present and future of aviation is inspiring! So Thanks again! PURE PATEY!
I think it’s cool that you took a negative like the tape sticking to your carbon fiber and turned into a positive. Also, paint stirrers and duct tape! Brilliant! Just one of your doors would probably blow the whole budget for the plane I want to build....Very Cool seeing Mark, Chandra, and Jason building on their planes! I can’t wait to see all four of you buzzing Spanish Fork in formation.
Love how excited and enthusiastic you are about building you plane. Also how willing you are to share your journey and experiences to the world. Thanks Mike
Are you absolutely sure of the wisdom of losing an emergency exit? Happy Christmas to you and your family and thank you for sharing all that you do with us. Bless you.
Yeah I wondered why he didn't mention the left window being able to be pushed out in an emergency. Presumably it could? Great video as usual by Mike. Fascinating to watch the build develop :)
I love that you have the financial means to pay someone to do this stuff, but you still build almost everything yourself. You are one heck of a designer / engineer!
Mr. Patey, you're an inspiration. I know that sounds like a kid, but I'm 41. I wish I had the money to even try to see some of my ideas come to reality.
Mike, I really love your channel. Your passion for aviation and attention to detail remind me of the better parts of my dad and grandfather. I never became a pilot, myself, but have a great love of aviation, particularly GA. Watching you build your projects is quite satisfying, even though I never got my pilot’s license. Thanks for filming (and explaining) all your builds. I have one request: please, film more close ups of the processes you describe in such delightful detail. As they say: a picture is worth a thousand words. Or as we say in the corporate presentation business: Show. Don’t tell. Keep up the great effort and continue building fantastic aircraft. Back to work!
Awesome pro tip using tape to set your "trim to" point for making composite bits... I've always done the same thing "inside out" I suppose for making parts out of aluminum, to where the tape would become a sacrificial barrier, and a movable point to file and stress relieve to. I've never thought about forming it into a piece of composite like that, especially since it's all going to get turned into dust like you said... I can't wait to see this thing out and about when it's flyable!
Unbelievable to have that much talent in the same shop. Just one word comes to mind watching you work, AMAZING. God has given you a brain that is filled with more talent than than most of us could even dream of. Merry Christmas to you and your enter family and that includes all those that you call family. Unto us a Child is born.
25:00 The door mating surfaces should be at an angle to each other, like two 45 degree angles. With them as they are now, if you crash and the frame flexes you run the risk of the door itself getting pinched in the door opening. If they're angled and the frame flexes due to a crash the door will get pushed out of the door opening and you'll be able to escape.
That’s weird. It’s 3pm Christmas Eve here and I’m laying with my 4 year old to get him to take a little longer of a nap before Christmas Eve festivities begin! What part of the world are you at? Anyway Merry Christmas, have fun with the kids, it really is the beat day of the year!
Great idea, just started watching and then read your comment. Now saved for a morning watch on the big screen before the rest of the house wakes up on Christmas morning. Time here 8.13pm Christmas Eve - Winchester, England. PS Happy Holidays to all :-)
Scrappy installments have been the highlights of this year for me. So much utter awesomeness every time! Very chuffed, too, to get a glimpse of Chandra at work on her Cub; can't wait to see more. Above all, Mike, Chandra and your wonderful kids, have an amazing Christmas and the best New Year ever! Thanks for all you share with all of us, Mr 21st century Da Vinci!
As an aeronautical boilermaker I love your job on Scrappy!! Your videos are so interesting and they have a lot of enriching advices for me!!! keep going and Merry Christmas !!!!
We got a Scrappy and a Binky video on the same day! Two of our favorite over engineered and wonderfully, obsessively built objects of passion and determination. Thanks for a wonderful present. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!
I was surprised you didn’t make a door on both sides. One of the coolest things I remember about flying a Bellanca Scout years ago was that both windows would swing up and latch on the wing and you could literally fly in an “open” cockpit.
I wonder if the decision was made in case of a crash to have the window fixed. Or maybe noise consideration. Mike let us know why you decided on one fixed window.
Mike we all love watching progress on Scrappy but personally I’m looking forward to the video series watching Chandra build the “Bride of Scrappy”!!. Wishing all of the Patey clan a Merry Christmas!
Mike you make it look easy! No drawings just right on the airframe. Which is already painted. I guess designing this by th industry would set you back many thousands of dollars before it gets built. Fascinated by your approach.
Your drive and work ethic is incredible! You are a huge inspiration to aviation enthusiasts of all ages but especially to young aspiring pilots like myself. Thank you for the great content, keep it up Mike! 🤙🏼
must...finish...studying....THEN fine money to build plane...haha... Thanks Mike - Ron and everyone! Can't wait to see Chandra's spin, and Mark and Jason running against eachother...
Thankyou for taking the time to explain what’s going on there Mike.. The doors need to be reliable and the in-depth explanation is hurting my head. Merry Christmas to you and your family from West Oz.
Hi Mike! From South America, I wish you, your family and friends a Merry Christmas and a Happy 2021. Glad to see Chandra, Mark & frinds starting to build their own bush planes! The B.P. family is growing!!!! Thank you so very much for making this eternal lockdown in my country so much entretaining. I´ve enjoied it a lot and also learned a lot, so Thanks. I send all of you a big hug from NE patagonia, Argentina.
Who in the world would be crazy enough to get in a plane and fly with Mike Patey. Got my straight jacket flight suit... Merry Xmas Patey Family. Enjoyed all the videos and hard work except for the Drago bending...God bless.. 2021 is going to be awesome....
Your shop is starting to remind me of the AH-64 assembly line I worked on many years ago :) You and your family never cease to amaze! Merry Christmas to all
Awesome Mike, bout time you got back to Scrappy...I have been having anticipation withdrawals...lol Merry Christmas to you Mike and your family from Washington State :-) At 75 and a pilot since 1978, I thoroughly enjoy these builds, and what you are doing for Aviation, keep up the great work Mike :-)
Dear Mike, a lot of work has been done over the past year, as well as over the past decade. Your progress is impressive! I look forward with pleasure and impatience to each of your new releases! Let the New Year 2021 bring you new ideas, new inspiration and keep the old youthful passion and enthusiasm. Health to you and all your loved ones, well-being!! From Russia with love! Happy New Year!
Man what a great family, all getting together and doing what they love, building airplanes! I wish I could just complete my 32hrs for my privates pilot license, just got too expensive for me, but to build and fly my own plane, what a dream that would that would be. So cool watching you though, love the videos!
Is there going to be an integrated way to break open the non-opening window? Sod's law dictates if the fuselage ends up in a river on its side it'll be door side down. Awesome project, please don't take my comment as criticism, just thinking through scenarios.
I would think that just like a car, in a worst case scenario, if the fuselage begins to fill with water the pressure will equalize and you can then open the door as normal.
Who are the 71 nincumpoops that don't like this video....Mike you are getting us acustomed to great workmanship, and that is very rarw these days. Thank you! Would love more videos
Thanks for your Videos!! I grew up With a family in aviation, both parents we’re pilots. I license at 19 . But not Presently current, Maybe someday before I retire??? Look forward to see scrappy flying!!!
Fascinating watching a gifted builder create aviation parts. Good for you all building 7 or more carbon cubs going on. Can't wait for next install. Merry Christmas 🎄 ya all.
I'm so glad to see this video drop. I check every day for your new uploads and watch them right away. I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas, Mike. Back to work!
I love the sound of the door frame connecting with the rest of the plane.
No clunk, bang, bounce.
Just click.
And it’s not even finished.
Sound like high quality.
Excellent work.
Excellent team.
Scrappy needs to be on the main floor of sema next year. To show them what real quality work is. Not the 20 foot cars they put in the booths.
Some times 20 feet isn’t even enough to hide the flaws.
@Cindy Klenk I so agree Cindy,, Mike has the patience of Jobe, the mind of Thomas Edison, and the quality mindedness of street rod builder Jeff Lutz,, his work is incredible!
@@quickdeuce If Job was around today, I wonder what he would think of the Patey twins? 😉
LASTLY..... NONE OF OUR ADMIRATION FOR MIKE IS POSSIBLE WITHOUT YOU MY BROTHER RON..... 95% THE HIDDEN GEM BEHIND THE CAMERA
The “Dude, where’s my car” scene was hilarious! “And then!”
And it was a perfect poke at his over elaboration.
And then?
I think we are all ready for your next video!!

Come on man! Mike takes things to explosion level. I love watching him. He is not superman. Give it a rest
@@BuckWheat0591 Team X & SpaceX share same spirit
He'll lose any Stol competition with this plane if that's what he's building it for. Maybe it's just for looks.
@@terrymargieduvall4808 It depends. I have no doubt that he designed a wing increasing its area to reduce its wing loading per ft2...

Your work with carbon fiber is incredible and fascinating.
It's still hilarious how easy you make building carbon fiber parts look. It must be a gift.

It’s nearly all carbon, it will either flex and return or break. It’s not like metal frames/doors which can bend and set.

I would guess visibility. Full window vs. the bottom section having to contain a latch mechanism. Just a guess though
Yeh, seems less ideal for egress in a crash, if one side is blocked shut or has hazards (fire)
One of the few decisions on Scrappy that really doesn't seem to make sense.
Needing some Scrappy in my life! Hope all is coming along well!
Sitting here waiting patiently for more Scrappy! I love your craftsmanship

Merry Christmas to both Mike and Mark and their families! Thanks you all for being such an incredible inspiration and role model for us and our kids!
It would be awesome to see a Radio Controlled plane of Scrappy complete with a detailed signed certificate from Mike Patey in the future. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Your fabrication skills are second to none. I've enjoyed watching every minute of these. Looking forward to the next Draco.
I lost it when the "Dude, where's my car" scene came in. That was hilarious!
Your drive and work ethic is incredible! You are a huge inspiration to aviation enthusiasts of all ages but especially to young aspiring pilots like myself. Thank you for the great content, keep it up Mike! 🤙🏼
Merry Christmas, thank you for letting us follow along
must...finish...studying....THEN fine money to build plane...haha... Thanks Mike - Ron and everyone! Can't wait to see Chandra's spin, and Mark and Jason running against eachother...
Thankyou for taking the time to explain what’s going on there Mike.. The doors need to be reliable and the in-depth explanation is hurting my head. Merry Christmas to you and your family from West Oz.
What man can conceive he can achieve. Your conception is extraordinary.
Merry Christmas and thanks for sharing.
Hi Mike! From South America, I wish you, your family and friends a Merry Christmas and a Happy 2021. Glad to see Chandra, Mark & frinds starting to build their own bush planes! The B.P. family is growing!!!! Thank you so very much for making this eternal lockdown in my country so much entretaining. I´ve enjoied it a lot and also learned a lot, so Thanks. I send all of you a big hug from NE patagonia, Argentina.
Love the Red Green clip!! Proud Canadian!!
The REDGREEN Show!!!! Like reliving my entire childhood!
This was one of the best videos in the series so far! and then we get more!
Amazing work as always. I love to see all the fabrication of the bird going together. Keep them coming.
Just great look forward to seeing the finished door. It will be better than 90% of the production GA aircraft doors out there.
The only Christmas gift I need is a new Scrappy video from the man himself, Mr. Mike Patey!
Modern design, modern materials, strong engine, awesome performance to be expected :-) Keep on, all the best!
Who in the world would be crazy enough to get in a plane and fly with Mike Patey.
Got my straight jacket flight suit... Merry Xmas Patey Family. Enjoyed all the videos and hard work except for the Drago bending...God bless.. 2021 is going to be awesome....
Your shop is starting to remind me of the AH-64 assembly line I worked on many years ago :) You and your family never cease to amaze! Merry Christmas to all
Awesome Mike, bout time you got back to Scrappy...I have been having anticipation withdrawals...lol Merry Christmas to you Mike and your family from Washington State :-) At 75 and a pilot since 1978, I thoroughly enjoy these builds, and what you are doing for Aviation, keep up the great work Mike :-)
Dear Mike, a lot of work has been done over the past year, as well as over the past decade. Your progress is impressive! I look forward with pleasure and impatience to each of your new releases! Let the New Year 2021 bring you new ideas, new inspiration and keep the old youthful passion and enthusiasm. Health to you and all your loved ones, well-being!! From Russia with love! Happy New Year!
Beautiful carbon Fab work! fits like a Corinthian leather glove...👌
Man what a great family, all getting together and doing what they love, building airplanes! I wish I could just complete my 32hrs for my privates pilot license, just got too expensive for me, but to build and fly my own plane, what a dream that would that would be. So cool watching you though, love the videos!
A typical American. Buying even air plane kits in bulk family-value packs ...
;-)
Merry Christmas to the aviation family! Hopefully 2021 is better for you all
Production value:10/10! Great video!
I always learn a lot watching these videos. I probably will never make use of the knowledge but it’s nice knowing it.
I love watching this guy build stuff!
Finally....whew. Needed this.
Dude. 🤟🏽🐻
This thing will be soooooo fun. Cant wait to see it flying.
Dude that "and then" cracked me up 😂😂
Cant wait to see it finished...
When i come home at night after a long day of work, i drink beer and watch this guy work. Professional supervisor am I....
Great editing, guys. Thanks for turning a somewhat dull explanation into a hilarious segment... "and thennnnn?"
Is there going to be an integrated way to break open the non-opening window? Sod's law dictates if the fuselage ends up in a river on its side it'll be door side down. Awesome project, please don't take my comment as criticism, just thinking through scenarios.
Shouldn't be possible with the wing and strut and landing gear on the side as well. Probably a quick release hinge mechanism from the inside.
Explosive bolts around the perimeter of the window or incorporate primacord in the widow channel?
Multi directional seat-o eject-o with a rocket. equipped with the latest Garmin glass of course.
I would think that just like a car, in a worst case scenario, if the fuselage begins to fill with water the pressure will equalize and you can then open the door as normal.

Every time I watch your vids you inspire me to work harder and do what I need to do to be able to do what I want to do
Who are the 71 nincumpoops that don't like this video....Mike you are getting us acustomed to great workmanship, and that is very rarw these days. Thank you! Would love more videos
Thanks for your Videos!! I grew up With a family in aviation, both parents we’re pilots. I license at 19 . But not Presently current, Maybe someday before I retire??? Look forward to see scrappy flying!!!
Love your workmanship and dedication
Fascinating watching a gifted builder create aviation parts. Good for you all building 7 or more carbon cubs going on. Can't wait for next install. Merry Christmas 🎄 ya all.
Yes!!! A Christmas gift from Mike!!! Thanks Santa Patey!!!
Man, you guys are upping your game. Red Green and Dude Where's My Car in one video. I knew I liked y'all. :-)
Love the builds I think your channel is the best aviation channel, building and promoting aviation. Merry Christmas!
I'm so glad to see this video drop. I check every day for your new uploads and watch them right away.
I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas, Mike.
Back to work!
Awesome work, tasks like the doors are the ones where tiny details matter and the challenges stack up. This was great to see 👍
