1929 Fleet Model-2 Walkaround
This is a walk around of a 1929 Fleet Model -2 biplane. Andrew King talks about the history of the aircraft and some of the flying characteristics of this 90 year old biplane.
Here is another video of a 1939 Fleet Model 10 that we did a few years back. • Flying and Overview of...

How cool to see another of Richard Bach's airplanes. I flew inton Columbia CA once and met the current owner of Bach's Meyers.
I had a friend who owned a Fleet model 2. Had a Kinner radial with manually greased rocker arms.
I could listen to Andrew talk airplanes and history for days. Fascinating. I'm so glad i got to meet him. Just a cool, nice person.
Seen a 1930 fleet, a man and his son were putting together, back in the mid 60's., when I was taking flying instructions at Concord Airport, in NE Ohio. Seen a few times over the years. I was partners in two different Stearmans over a 20 year period. I also used to do inverted spins in my Stearman, and it feels as if your in a washing machine spin cycle. He's talking about a Great Lakes, and I had a chance to fly one, and it's very heavy on the controls, and a terrible aerobatic airplane. I'm 82, and don't fly any more, but wish I still could. What I miss is the hanger flying time, many many good stories were told! Good like with your strip!
What a great story and history about the Fleet Trainer. I once built a model of the Fleet I found in Flying Models issue of March, 1942. The month and year I was born.
I could listen to Andrew talk all day long!
Beautiful restoration. - 46 outside loops! That's wild!
Another great Dewey and Andrew video - thanks!
FANTASTIC video bro!!!!! 🤙🏼😁 Great to see you out enjoying the things in life that you love 😁👍🏼
I was there when buck sold it toRichard Bach
Super cool video Dewey! It was fun listening to your friends talk about their planes because I have no clue how any of this stuff works so it’s interesting to actually learn something in your videos 😂. This was a great video!!
Great video Dewey... I've seen the one at Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome but never this close. That is a nice looking airplane! Can't wait to see part 2 😁
Dewey, How appropriate I watched your video same day the Falcon 9 launched May 30 2020 Andrew King mentioned the connection of the plane to the Shuttle i thought it was good timing.
Greta video Dewey, very informative.
Good stuff Dewey Keith Kuhn from Lorain county. KK Motion Pictures
Nice paint scheme.
It has lovely proportions. I am very picky over my bi-planes and specifically how the top wing is brased above the nose. This looks nice because it has some decent angles on the supporting struts. On something like the Moth that section seems too square(scafold like) to me with the top wing also looking rather too high for best asthectics. This looks Goldiocks.
Turn it into a flower pot. Put a hole in the roof and fill it up with manure then it will be a useful pile of poo...
