Absolutely beautiful, nothing better than a yellow Cub against a blue sky. Grandaddy would be proud , I'm sure he was in the front seat smiling and the wind under her wings.
I hadn't checked in since you did the first engine start. Congrats on getting her flying. I know you'll feel your Granddad's presence with every flight.
Thank you brother man!! Hope you and your family had a blessed Thanksgiving. 👊🏼😁🤙🏼 Yeah it is definitely a labor of love that goes into making these baby’s better than new again for sure. 😉👌🏼 Check out this walk around video. th-cam.com/video/sNU4EWoD5Ec/w-d-xo.html
What a fantastic, emotional first flight post restoration Chad. 👌👌👌 You have done a wonderful job on that Cub and your Granddaddy is surely smiling down on you. Bravo Zulu. 👍👍
Just awesome! I have 87905. Sn15523. Been in my family 55 years. Similar story. I first soloed in it 44 years ag and 20000 plus hours ago. Finished a restoration on it in 2005. The joy that yellow machine will bring you is immeasurable. Respect it and treat it like the valued gem it is!
Well Chad, What can I say but, FANTASTIC!!! You couldn't of had ANY BETTER Test pilot,CFI you had been waiting on forever than Cuz to do the Honors of that first flight!! Told you so!! Ha! Amazing work Mr. Chad from beginning to end!! I'm impressed! Grandfather would be proud!! Next stop OSHKOSH!! Isaiah 40:28-31
@@ColeAviation Well,I hope I do Chad, I stop by 4A4 every now and then and watch all the flying going on in my grey/silver Dakota truck and spoke to you about the fantastic restoration work you've done on the Cub for the first time back in Oct. while you were preparing for that First Flight. Told me you had been waiting patiently for pilot/CFI to come and test fly her and told you don't wait just let Cuz fly her!!?? Ha!! Sorry I missed inaugural flight Thanksgiving weekend! Looks like it worked out pretty good!! 😉 Michael👍
WHATE A BEAUTIFUL RESTORATION OF THIS J3 CUB, FRAME WINGS& control surfaces, new engine prop everything and your dedication to grandpa. i am a private pilot and when i return back to flying again, i may want to get a j3 cub or any old piper airplane and base it in half moon bay calif. again a great airplane and a touching story. mark san francisco calif.
Thank you so much Mark! We have had her for 55 years and I made that promise to my late Grandfather that I WOULD get his baby back in the air. 😁👌🏼 So far I’ve got 80 hours on it since the restoration. Thanks for taking the time to watch. 😁🤙🏼
@@ColeAviation YOUR VERY WELCOME COLE AND I DREAM AS WELL AS HOPE SOON I CAN GET BACK FLYING. I,VE HAD MY PRIVATE PILOT LICENCE SINCE FEB 1986 BUT HAVN,T FLOWN SINCE 2008 AND I MISS IT ALOT. WELL AGAIG AN EMOTIONAL TOUCHING STORY AND GLAD THE CUB IS BACK FLYING AGAIN IN TRIBUTE TO YOUR GRANDPA.
Beautiful Cub. Great job restoring her. Those little birds are born to fly. I was feeling with you. Not ashamed to admit, I had tears in my eyes too. Wish you wonderful times with her up in the air and always happy landings! ❤️
I originally found your channel because i fly RC planes but i have been following your restoration of your grandfathers CUB. Simply beautiful job and an amazing flight i hope you get years of enjoyment out it. If you ever plan to fly it to Triple Tree i would love to see it in person. Have a wonderful holiday with your family.
Great job on the video, Cuz. Of course I can't say enough about the beautiful.... let's just say 'Perfect' restoration of William's Cub. She's all yours now, buddy. I wish William and my Dad could be here to see it, but I know they are with us in spirit as we carry on the family tradition. It was a great honor to do this flight for you, She flew perfect in every way. Much love to you!
Absolutely fantastic! Well he may not be here physically, he is definitely with you in spirit. This has been an absolutely fun and informative restoration video series. I can’t wait to see this plane at Oshkosh.
A *HUGE* Congratulations for what you have accomplished as a tribute to your Granddaddy and to your immaculate attention to detail. I've been watching your videos since early on in the process and applaud you for the time and heartfelt love you've put into the restoratation. Emotional moment for first flight and I'm sure your Granddaddy has a smile from ear to ear watching you as the joy of flight returns. You done good, my friend!
Perfect job! I was watching whole progress of restoration. It is sad to see your granddady was not alive to see the final result, but I am pretty sure he is watching from above, and he surely was on that fits fight on board on his favorite front seat! Nice video, and nice life story of your granddad, he has good life. 🙂
Thank you so much! I really do appreciate that. Yesterday was 4 years when he took his last flight out to be with Jesus. So far the Cub has 70 hours on her. 😁🤙🏼 Thanks for watching!
Hello my brother. I can well imagine how you feel at the moment. The years of restoration work paid off 100%. Too bad your grandfather wasn't allowed to attend this special day. He would have been very proud of you. Take care of this piece of jewelry. I can't wait to do a little sightseeing flight with you. Happy Thanksgiving 😊 Big hugs from your brother from the other side of the pond.
Very nice !!! Interesting, the Cub I was very lucky to have a flying relationship with N number was N87706. Maybe these two were close to being manufactured at same time. Regardless, enjoy that J-3, it is one of the best planes every made in my opinion. I'm so glad you are taking care of this plane as you are !!!!
Thanks for watching & thanks for the kind compliment. She’s been a parts of my family now for 55 years since my late Grandfather bought her in May of 1968. They very well could have been close together. 😁🤙🏼
WOW just WOW what an amazing job you have done. Your Koi pond is how I found you which in self is a just as amazing!!! Sharing your family with us all on TH-cam is also no small task. You are a kind caring person for which we all say a BIG thank you. Also thank you for all the help you gave me you will always be remembered Cole. Happy Thanksgiving
Just checking in with you. It's been a fun trip keeping up with your videos. All still good? I know you are proud and I bet Grandaddy would be very proud of you! Phillip Hall
@@ColeAviation That is great!!! If I’m ever that way I might stop in for a ride if you have time. lol J/k I know you are busy… I sure have enjoyed the tag along of this restoration. Gods Blessings! Phillip Hall
Absolutely beautiful. Gorgeous work. I e been thoroughly enjoying my J3 over here in Alabama and I appreciate the encouragement and info you’ve provided over the last couple of years. Well deserved, sir! Enjoy!!
I know this had to be an emotional day for you and a long time coming. She looked right at home in the air Cole. So proud and happy for you. You did a fantastic job on this ole cub she is better than new now. I am looking forward to watching you getting your wings back underneath you sort of to speak. Then I want to come down and have you take me up in this beautiful cub. I have been up in several small planes over the years but never a cub. I want this one to be my first! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. God Bless!!
Aw thank you brother!! That really means a lot. It was a very emotional day if you couldn’t tell. I have already gotten 8 hours in her so far as of today. 😁 But absolutely brother you can come down and go up. 😁👍🏼 I had a great thanksgiving for sure. Had my kids and family over. Hope you had one as well. Thanks! OH yeah. Never flown in a “Cup” before?? 😂🤣 I HATE auto correct sometimes. Thought I would tell you so you could edit it. 🤪😉👌🏼
Sorry but you opened the door. Are you sure thems all registered Dem. bugs? Some could be independent bugs. Gorgeous Cub. You have a trophy on your hands. Cool video too. A true Tribute to your Grandaddy. Congratulations.
Should of done a pitot static test before the first flight. Flying a drone around an active airport- not cool. Great job on the Cub, Grandpa would be proud. Why didn't you fly her on the first flight?
Its "should have". The indicator was a fresh Keystone rebuild and reading bad from their shop. The replacement indicator reads perfect. Permission for the drone was cleared with airport authorities and the only airport activity was this flight. Chad chose to have a higher-time pilot do the flight.
@@leeroyholloway4277 Even if the indicator is brand new any time the pitot static system is broken into you should have a pitot static test done. One reason is for the very reason that he had problems with the airspeed indicator, You Check Instruments Before First Flight! I spent years in a paint shop as an A&P mechanic and took a lot of pitot tubes off for chroming and Every time a pitot static line was cracked a pitot static test was done. After all the time, sweat, tears and money put into this most excellent Cub restoration, it would be tragic if a disaster were to happen over a stupid little test. Thanks for the grammar lesson.
@@rickburris6164 Your point is valid & I appreciate the reply. There is only one pitot line on the Cub to the ASI & the static port is on the back of the instrument. The line was new, clean & clear. Beyond that, there is not much testing one can do on a Cub pitot. Perhaps Keystone should have tested and calibrated their own work before sending it out.
