  • A full, detailed answer to the question that has been asked for years:
    How do you get the blade lock pins out?

    I so share that enthusiasm for fresh metal. Especially fresh metal that has purgatoried for decades awaiting its moment to "shine". I get the same feeling from guitars, amps, and other vintage musical devices as well as firearms. Thanks for sharing the moment AJZ!

    I've been in the aerospace MRO/OEM industry for almost 5 years now and have only focused on understanding the requirements of individual components of turbojet and turbofan engines. I've developed dozens of repair processes and reviewed thousands (probably hundreds of thousands) of pages of repair manuals and component drawings learning vast amounts of information about individual parts that make up these engines, but until I started watching your videos, I did not fully understand the overall function and purpose of many of these components. You have broadened my understanding of the engines I help service and have greatly increased my enthusiasm I have for the work I do. It''s amazing how differently I look at some of my projects now that I have a solid understanding of how they will ultimately be utilized. Thank you for all your great content and I hope you continue to provide the same high-quality information for years to come!

    This comes from a good friend retired RCAF. Best regards from VI (yes that one) A.
    had just over 300 hrs on the F86E model powered by the J47. My two forced landing crashes were in F86Es due to engine failures. The first one resulted from a failure of the barometric fuel control unit which adjusted the fuel/air mixture with changes in altitude. My engine hung up at 80% power while I was on letdown to base - Zweibrucken in Germany, and it flamed out on final approach which put the aircraft through the airfield fence and approach lights.
    The second one occurred five weeks later when I was ferrying an F86E to Turkey. The engine seized up with a loud bang at 33,000 ft over the Mediterranean, and I force landed wheels up on a partially built airfield on the Italian coast. The accident investigation showed that one of the engine main bearings had seized due to oil starvation. Needless to say, I was very happy to start flying the Orenda powered birds built by Canadair shortly thereafter.

    First of all, I fully admit that I lack sufficient motivation, time, and funds to become a gas generator mechanic. That being said, I would thoroughly enjoy having the opportunity to be in the shop, pestering everyone & getting in the way, for the complete process of an engine restoration - from initial receiving to final shipment of finished project.
    Thanks again for giving us all a glimpse of the work you do!

    Sweet... My father had a complete set of operations/maintenance manuals for the J47 that went into the F-86D (afterburning). I basically learned to read using these manuals. The color illustrations of the laid the foundation for my ability to read engineering diagrams. Alas they are long gone...

      Wish I still had them I'd give them to you. They had a very odd leather/plastic pebbled finish 3 ring binder. Alas a leak in the old storage building at my mothers house in Vermont killed those and many other manuals for 7-8 other airframes my father worked on in the 50's and 60's.

    Watched this immediately after the video showing the unpacking of 96 ceramic blades and one of your workmates tap two together making them ring. You were mortified. Your description here then of how a tiny nick might start a destruction process that might take years immediately brought to mind that ringing of the blades.

    Fantastic. Take advantage of the roll pin's brittle nature. We used roll pins as the break point in the doors on city buses, cheaper than links. I didn't know that the blades can move as they do. Thanks for the video. Next time I'll check out the notes more carefully.

    NOS parts are the best in the sense of nostalgia at the minimum and possibly even replacement. Pretty crazy to think the guys that mfg’d the parts on manual machines and the guys that bundled them up are most likely long gone by now. I love the cool old sheit from before the CNC & cad software era.

      I don't know if I tagged you in a post where I asked this question. Are Turbine blades considered somewhat consumable like pistons are in an automotive engine? I know they're expensive and generally saved and normally aren't replaced.

    • @AgentJayZ

      In the same way piston are consumable, so are turbine blades.
      They are replaceable, but can last a long time under normal operating conditions.

    16:30 Our technicians are trained to do the same thing.

    For a jet engineer these wonderful turbine blades from 1953 are probably the same thing as a rare bottle of precious 1953 Bordeaux for a wine connoisseur. The best job in the world is always a job you really love. And here it shows.
    BTW: another method getting those pins out is by using a slide hammer. But since these old pins might show signs of fatigue, using new ones is probably the correct way.

    • @AgentJayZ
      @AgentJayZ  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Probably?
      Thanks for the first comment.
      Your btw addition is completely erroneous. The only way to remove the pins is the way they were designed to be removed.
      I see you even thinking about trying anything else, and you'll be escorted to the the curb for your richly deserved permanent vacation.

    So cool you get to keep the F-86 flying. You lucky guy! Well deserved flight I watched recently. Great to see a Canadian and USAF Sabre in the air together. Have to say I love the f100 Super Sabre(who doesn’t?!)...Collings foundation fly one? Mmm. J57? Have you worked on one or are they “super rare”? I’ll troll through and see. Noted the J79 features so maybe and old question....It must cost a fortune to maintain airworthy warbirds. cheaper to own your own Gulfstream maybe😂. Amazes me how complex a thing can be so reliable. I see HMAS Canberra has LM2500...have new appreciation thanks to you. Love the detail.

    Very cool cans of NOS parts!! Quick question about the broken blade, why is the part that was slowly cracking cleaner looking than the back end that just broke and it being rusty looking? Not that I doubt how it cracked, you can see the other blades with the cracks, but normally wouldn't the oldest part of a crack be rusty and the fresh crack cleaner looking?

    Second favorite TH-cam script. Lol. Between you and Alec Steele. Maybe it’s a tie.

    What amazes me about that sheared turbine blade (which I definitely thought was long term heat fatigue with a sudden fod impact that did it in) was that a lot of those blade were probably in at least a similar state and one pebble or whatnot lodged itself into the shroud and wreaked havoc.
    Man, you nailed the time capsule analogy! What a treat!! For car people, that would be like opening a barn door and finding a Mercury in pristine condition beneath a hermetically sealed tarp, defying a tremendous number of odds in surviving history. The last time those blades saw the light of day... Actually, I'm just going to have a nice think on that.

      The blade was broken, not sheared. There was no FOD. There were thermal cracks on the leading edge, and they grew slowly due to fatigue and thermal stress. Eventually, they would all break like this one, but the fun stops after the first blade breaks.

      @@AgentJayZ I understood you, Master Yoda. I was theorizing before you explained it in the video, though yes, I theorized incorrectly on the fod. My other theory, not that it really matters, was the blade was slowly splitting apart and finally caught itself on the shroud, violently ripping the rest off it one go. Sheared sounded like the right descriptor, perhaps Cleavered is more apt but not among the jargon you'll find in the technical specs. =D

      @@AgentJayZ do you think the distortion on the shroud occurred when the blade failed?
