Definitely want to see the "Under $100K" video!
Yes please
All these are also under 100’000€, so watch it twice.
Same. Or just best with price as a factor. Similar to Wirecutter where the mid-priced one generally wins but then they give an upgrade/budget pick.
Yes would love to see this
Yes please! Under 100k I need!
Just an FYI on the opening slide, your sign usage >$50,000 means “greater than $50,000” you want to do
Thanks for feeding the algorithm 😉
I was going to say the same thing lol
@@thebenberman well apparently he’s just out here trolling for metrics lol
Pretty sure >$50,000 accurately reflects the cost of “planes under $50k.”
@@BenEater love your videos. COOL planes > 50k is how I read this
The Long EZ truly is the king of budget cross country. My first cross country flight in mine was over 1000 miles nonstop, getting 20-30mpg and going almost 200mph the whole way. The only "downside" is all the attention you get when you land. Fuel stops take longer because so many people come out to talk to you about the plane!
How hard are they to transition to? I’ve flown mostly 182 and Cherokee 235.
@@mafp22w I found it super easy and forgiving, coming from Cessnas and Diamonds. Way less stress due to the way the canard loses lift at low speed. The view is unmatched, like wearing a space helmet, the entire airplane is behind you.
It is very slippery so slowing down in the pattern can be something to get used to. And it climbs unbelievably fast.
Goodness 20-30mpg. So many car manufacturers are trash and should step up their game.
Not finding a single bonanza under 100 in this market
@@vancedisbetter5139a Honda CRX used to get 60 miles to the gallon, nowadays cars are struggling to get half that. It's a damn shame everyone thinks they need an SUV, when a smaller car that would save them money would work better.
Man, you are absolutely killing it. Your production skills and script writing are honestly impeccable. I don't know what you do outside of YT, but you should certainly consider video work as a more lucrative source of income outside of this YT by itself. You have a gift for it!
Totally agree. I watch the cost to own vids just for the story telling these days.
Great video!
Love that you're mixing in other styles along with the Cost to Own series!
Can't wait for:
-Velocity XL RG
-Velocity V-Twin
-Comp Air
-Sportsman 2+2
Another format idea: best Rotax powered aircraft
Sir. This is the BEST video you have made so far!!! We need more of these comparisons :)
😂 BD-4 blurred 😂
Now I need to find $50k ... and get a pilot's license.
EDIT: Anyone have any opinions on the Cozy MK4? It looks like an attractive option for a 4-place Long EZ that costs a bit more but still has the good range and efficiency.
I have many. Another day
And high landing speeds.
The cozy is great for efficiency, but you will be molded together with whoever you are flying with when doing it, you have to be cozy with them.
So you really just need to find $60k and you'll be doing pretty good! :-)
Agree completely on the CH 701 at 2:19. If you're looking for a fun flyer that's very easy on gas, it's a great option. It flies slow enough that you can enjoy aviating for longer instead of rushing to your destination.
For the under $100k, please toss the cost to own in there too!
A $90k C-172 and a $90k Baron are going to hit that pocketbook quite differently eh?
"That's better!" killed me.
Super Viking is pretty much my choice for my first plane now. It fits the lower end price range, has great performance characteristics, is ACTUALLY a four seater, and can pull 150 mph. Yes, its not as fuel efficient as a Mooney, but its got better useful load on average.
Also its got Viking in the name, so its cool by default.
I got my Comanche 180 2 years ago for $31,000. Paint in good condition, interior in great condition. Vacuum avionics… IFR certified and flown in the soup regularly. Engine has 1300 hours. Got the tip tanks. Annual first year was $5k and second year was $3k.
Very much enjoyed this video!
Love, Love, Love the video idea!
These are amazingly entertaining
All those people who have to correct you on the greater than symbol just don't get the not so subtle warning 😅 that once they spent the 50k there is an additional 10k to 20k in fixes, upgrades, and surprises 😅
A typo here and there gets the comments churning. Good algorithm fuel 😉
@@CompleteWalkaround Who wouldn't want to help the algorithm? You're a great channel 😄
When I saw it I assumed he was being tongue in cheek. We all know you might be able to buy it for 50k. But it won't be under 50 for long.
Your videos keep on getting better - the to the point information / the beautiful graphics / your impeccable sense of humor and the list goes on!
From a fellow aviator, Thank you for the day-brightening content
I totally agree with the Hatz CB1 being great. I own one! N13RE. I just wish summer would hurry up and get here.
This videos are the best. Funny short and full of value.
Thanks.
awesome vid!
Fantastic video! Loved all the other options that were considerations too as part of the video. Finally some airplanes maybe one day I could afford! Id love a 100K video, even though I'll probably never fit that category.
Great video 👍🏻
Greate video as always. thanks
Great videos. I've been following your channel since the beginning and look forward to your videos. Yes, to best planes under $100,000. Also, I've been eyeballing the Bellanca Viking/Super Viking for 1-1/2 to 2 years. Would you please do a dedicated video on this plane?
I really enjoy your channel and find the information you provide very helpful. Keep up the good work.
bro these guys videos are perfect
Excellent video!
wonderfull video and i´d definetly enjoy the >100k video
I would personally love to see some longer videos, I love them!
I would love to see a video on the Cessna 170B, a classic and capable plane for both cross country and back country flying that can be had for ~60k
Great like always, I would love to see a lowest cost of ownership comparison.
You can tell a lot of time and effort goes Into these videos. Great job as always.
man, your videos are just ... something else.
the models, the voice. everything.
keep up the amazing work, buddy!
Cool video ,keep it up !Can you do a video on the pzl wilga ?
I watched the "old country" bit 4 times! Great video.
Thank you
Also would love under 100k! Great content, glad I discovered 👍
Please do a video on the Hatz CB1 cost to own please! Really nice plane
Great video! SuperXimango next!!
One of my fav channels
This was fantastic! I'd say the EZ could win the for fun category too, with aerobatics and all ;) Would love to see the 100k or a "coolest experimentals" video!
This was a great video. A 100k video would be excellent
new weekend plan!!! 🤯
i could listen to this dude for hours his voice is perfect
Yes, video of best under $100k. Can you also do a walk around on the Piper Arrow III (Turbo & NA both). Thank You!!
We need more cheap biplanes reviews !
Great video.
I wonder how the CH77 would stack up...
I found you kind of funny so I did like and subscribe!
... even though I can't afford anything under $50
Is defo my Enzo 3 paraglider. Try doing a 12 hour non-stop flight in your Cessna 😉
Every time the BD-4 makes an appearance in a video, it warms my soul and makes me laugh. Thank you!
This was great. I'd love a full video on the Pietenpol at some point, if possible. It seems like a wildly accessible plane on the surface, and I'm wondering if there are terrible, terrible secrets hidden in there somewhere.
That's cool. You've highlighted a number of aircraft I've ever heard of. 👍
I love this channel. Your humor is great, and I love the illustrated planes. How do you do the illustrations? Do you draw each one?
Each one myself. This is a one man show. Thanks for the nice words
Great video! For the back country category, I really thought you were going to go with the Piper Pacer. Pristine examples are still easily found under 50K, and the 150-160hp models climb like crazy, cruise at 110-115kts, and can carry 4 people. They do well in regards to stol performance, and with VGs installed they can get up and down even quicker!
Pacer is a good plane, no doubt. But still not the bush performer the 701 is. Pacer stalls at 50 knots or so and needs 500 - 700 feet to get off the ground usually. 701 stalls at 26 knots and gets off the group in less than 100 feet. It's really amazing.
@@CompleteWalkaround It really is! I'm a little too tall for one but would to get it's bigger brother (CH750) one day. I actually helped build one with my old EAA chapter before I moved. Zenith really knows STOL!
Great video. I'd be interested to see one about best planes by operating cost. Something like "best planes you can fly 100 hrs/year for under $xxxx"
I’ve always wanted to buy my dad a plane since he always talks about how one day will have our own plane and the hatz cb1 looks good for that
You are one of my favorite TH-cam channels. Thanks for the great video, and they typo for the algorithm. Maybe a >100k and
Great video, the BD4C is the only one with leg room for the anyone in the back. I’m gunna put a belly pod on mine.
I expect your BD4 to be the greatest in history. I also expect a ride
Bring on the $100k!!!
You think you’ll ever do a video on the Ikarus C42? Not sure how popular they are in the US (live in Scotland), think they are marketed under the name Cyclone over there. I done my first solo in one a week ago so would be neat to see a video on it haha.
I'll just mention that I know someone that bought a Beech Muskateer for under 30k, put another 5-10k into it in the first year (well under 50k total), and has been flying and enjoying it ever since. He's even made a few cross-country flights in it.
Great Video! Please do the 199K video!
A decent Navion can be had for slightly under $50,000 although prices have been rising lately. It's a great cross country plane.
Great video. Would love a cost to own vodeo on the Beechcraft Staggerwing.
Would love to see best plane for specific missions. For example, best plane for a private grass strip that can take the kids to go see grandma a few states over, i.e. best 4-seat piston-single with balanced soft-field performance, range, speed, load, and price.
You should do a video about what websites and where to look for planes for sale, I’ve been on Facebook marketplace for a bit but not sure if that’s the best way.
I'm curious; how many/which of these are 4-seaters or more, AND can be used for commercial use? (Air taxi, happy-go-lucky CEO carrier, etc.)
Planes that used to go for under 50k, until a popular TH-camr brought them up!
Def want to see the 100k video. 😀.. “makes your eyes water”🤣🤣. 👋🇬🇧
I feel like getting a stearman and painting into the tornado from Sonic, maybe get some side money at airshows, also saw jocks plane
Could you please do one on the Yak-52?
Love the channel. You should do the topic of someone time building for IFR. Similar to this. With several options. Except make sure to range the insurance. As a new pilot woth 55 hours. All of your insurance info is in most cases half. Please don’t take this as trolling. Just an observation. I frequently watch your channel and like that you take the time to get info into the world. 👍🏻👍🏻
Which one of these planes would be best for purchasing if I want to do flight training towards say a PPL ?
Ah for training probably none of these. Cessna 150 or piper Cherokee 140. Whichever flavor you prefer
I want to see one for the Piaggio P180 Avanti.
So, I want to buy that Stearman!
Yes, 100K video would be nice. Also 200k :P
The long ez and 701 are two of my favorite planes anyway. When I move back to the farm I think I need to split a 701 with my dad. How else will we check cows? With an ATV like plebes? I think not.
I think the cows are going to have bigger issues to worry about other than the ATV.
@AMNS Well, PETA has been acting up lately. They've got a bill going where they want to give cows actual voting rights in advance of the 2024 United States Presidential Election, and right now it's got bipartisan support. That means registering all your cows, keeping track of a lot more papers and somehow getting them to the voting ballots, or else you're non-compliant. I'd call my local representative before it's too late.
Why do I stupidly continue to watch these video while drinking something? I once again choked on my drink when caught off guard by a hilarious tidbit. The Bede going out of focus had me cleaning up my desk. I must say though, worth it!
I wonder what a Mig 23 would cost to run.
I imagine that scheduled maintenance hanger and fuel would would be significantly more than the initial purchase price. Not to mention any “unscheduled” or preventative maintenance. Also landing fees where applicable.
I want a long EZ so bad!
@1:09 is so funny "that's better" 🤣🤣🤣
I vote for Pipistrel Sinus Flex or Pipistrel Taurus Electro in the higher price tier videos. Some of the coolest planes I've ever seen. The former can be a fuel-efficient cross-country flyer AND a backcountry flyer AND you can cut the engine to glide AND you can swap the glide wings for shorter wings for better performance/storage AND it can have a ballistic parachute. The latter is a crazy-ahead-of-it's-time self-launch all-electric glider from 2011 that even has a solar trailer so it can fly for "free" with zero emissions. It's also practical because it fits in a small, easily towable trailer. Much cheaper than renting a hangar and you can drive it anywhere!
The Ercoupe definitely had a place in my heart for having fun plane. Aaand.. also for making people scratching their head why the heck do the pilot steer the aircraft with a yoke 😂
Good video. We'd love for you to visit Zenith Aircraft Company and fly the Zenith STOL CH 701, low-wing Zenith CH 650, and our bigger high wing planes. #BuildItFlyIt
I will definitely take you up on that offer Thanks!
I'd love to find a V-Tail Bonanza for under 50k. They're like 200-300g for ones Ive seen.
I died at "Old Country 😳" 😂😂😂
How did the Cherokee 180 not get mentioned in either of these best under videos? Seems like a pretty great all around package, despite being a tad slow.
I wouldn’t say the 35 series Bonanzas under 50k are the bottom of the barrel in terms of cross country utility. On the contrary, they are actually a great value and efficient traveling machine. The Bonanzas under 50k tend to be the older “E series” Bonanzas 1947-1956 featuring one of several variants of E185 or E225 pressure carbureted engines.
The E engines utilized a splined crankshaft that leaves owners with only a couple of propeller options. Originally outfitted with an electric variable pitch (in manual control) or constant speed (when using governor control) Roby R200 wooden propeller, followed by a wooden Beech B200 propeller that was then outfitted with aluminum blades to create the prolific Beech 215 electric propeller. This propeller was eventually retrofitted to pretty much all early bonanza models featuring the splined crankshaft engines, and has zero Airworthiness Directives against it to this day.
As time went on, early Bonanza owners decided that they envied the pilots who flew behind hydraulic constant speed propellers due to the instantaneous pitch changes that can be made with oil hydraulic pressure (the electric motors that changed pitch on the 215 propellers were quite slow). Hartzell decided to rise to the occasion and developed the monstrosity that is the HC-A2V20 constant speed hydraulic propeller. To solve the solid splined crankshaft issue with no channel for oil supply to the hub, Hartzell developed a transfer collar oil transfer unit that transferred oil from the engine to the propeller hub. An elegant solution that was poorly designed and has caused many issues to this day. A costly recurring 500 hr/5 yr AD inspection has caused even more headaches and led to many owners seeking out a later variant that eliminated the AD.
The lack of propeller options-coupled with old engines that are considered outdated and difficult to work on (misguided on both counts) has led to the E series Bonanzas being extremely undervalued in the used aircraft market. Prior to the COVID price inflation, these planes were selling for sub 50k all day long. Now equivalent aircraft hover between 50-70k.
Those who do stumble onto this ancient gem of an a aircraft will find a robust and beautifully balanced flying machine that performs quite well given the horse power and possesses an outstanding range of speeds from Cherokee landing speeds to early Mooney cruise speeds-allowing excellent cross country travel coupled with impressive short field performance at low to moderate airport elevations.
There, now you know more than you ever cared to about the capable but misunderstood and wrongly maligned E series Bonanza-the best value and best kept secret in general aviation.

Cessna 170 video pleassse!
Best plane drawings under $0! Wow :D
We better get that 100k video😂😂
Gliding deserves a spot as well! Lots of music for little money. And most don't realize that gliding is more than just a controlled descent down to the ground.
Will you ever feature them too in your videos?
One day, for sure
"aswell"?
Isn't gliding sort of an overlap with fun weekender? I think gliders should just be included in that category or otherwise get their own video entirely. I just posted another comment about the Pipistrel Taurus Electro so I'd definitively love to see that make an appearance somewhere in a future video.
@@paulgemperlein626 Yeah, just for fun weekend flying
Gliding is fun until you pay for the tow. Unless you have a ground winch it's expensive.
In the under 50k list, I feel like you might have overlooked the Beechcraft A23 Musketeer. I would love to see a cost analysis video pointing out why it might not have made your list...or just a cost analysis video on the A23 in general
For cross country? Too slow. 105 knots is too slow for traveling. Especially for a 8-9 gal fuel burn and Beechcraft repair bills. A23 was built to be a trainer and that's what it was good for. Today is still good as a trainer if you don't mind paying the beech premium.
Thank you for that information. Very helpful.
1:10 “that’s better” 😅😅😅
What planes have good turning under 50k?
I see a Husky video coming up soon! 🙂
Awesome video and I loved all the more rare Pokémon that showed up! I now know what I want. Step 2: get 50k. I’m all for a under 100k video!
What about C150 or C152 ?
hey, can you make a video for the MIG-29 or the BLACKHAWK please ? :D
He can not. You need L29 first.
@@morisnakus6108 What do you mean by that ?
Any Aeronca! Our Sedan is a comfortable xc machine. You better enjoy the view because she's not real fast.
You screwed up the best cross country category. The BD-4C is the best because when you're inside it you don't have to look at it!
