Good rescue - and your brother no less. Glad you both enjoy flying. Brothers are special.

a hint as a c140 owner and a 40 year harley tech by profession we have issues with some front brake bleeding (dual disc) we take cap off resvoir then pump up perssure tye wrap master cylinder with pressure on leave for several hours, because lines go up (as do airplanes) bubbles go up and out , the viscousity of brake fluid makes this takes a while , works every time also checks for leaks. This is a professional trick so don't tell anyone. thanks for all your vids !

Ex-race engineer here (WSB). I’ll vouch for this method, usually leave it ziptied on firmly overnight. Works like a charm, especially useful for freshly rebuilt or brand new calipers or master cylinders that are prone to getting micro-bubbles trapped behind seal lips. They can be a real pita to get fully bled, leaving them under pressure works every time. 😎👍🍻

rubber band a fish aquarium air pump to it and plug in leave run for an hour or so, the vibration from the pump will dislodge any micro bubbles.😉

Trent, love your posts. I’ve been hooked since 2019. I’m an aircraft maintainer by trade. Even watched your flying videos while deployed (yours and Mike Patey’s Scrappy build 😜👍🏻) on one of the many TVs in our off duty hot spot. I’d look around by the end of each vid and have at least 10 more audience members hooked on your content. Great work! I hope to experience some of what you post someday. Keep it up!

This is what I would a real adventure with all the other friends flying together landing at places and take off again great fun

Absolutely going to need to pull the wheels and clean the rotor really good, acetone is good. And pull the pads. You can probably bake the pads at 350 for a half hour but your better off replacing the pads obviously. The fluid had to go somewhere.. definitely coated the brake 🤘🏻 Lucky he didn’t dump a wing on the ground loop. He’s obviously experienced enough to manage it with control surfaces 👍

Look like compression fittings on plastic tubing. U wanna get rid of the spongy feeling , nix the plastic and install hard lines with flared ends and fittings

Great video, glad it worked out. I had my new stater fail last year at Fond du Lac on one of my multiple attempts to get into Oshkosh. Nothing like true friends to help you get through a crisis.

Love all the bronze radio returns music! One of my favorite bands

I love the dog coming out barking to greet him.

Good to hear it's only a small fix, can't wait for the hanger opening fly in!

real hard to watch with the really loud music track. Wasn't mixed that well Trent. Have to keep pushing volume down for it and back up for listening to you talking.

Thankfully he is ok and your quick to come when your needed your a great man yall always look out for each other and show examples what family means👊🙏😁🇺🇸😎

Change the pads,, they were probably soaked when the line blew, then just sat overnight absorbing fluid👍

Suprised to see that style of brake line on the brothers plane! I would have assumed it would have some kind of flexible hose more similar to the freedom fox. Learn something new everyday!

Hi Trent, I believe he should have opened the cap. With that much air and pushing the fluid up the system there needs to be some place for that air to go. If he keeps it closed it will just push the fluid around and not bleed. He should definitely take your example and have tools on board flying in the remote areas. He's not really prepared...just lucky your around. Take care, Be safe.

Nice to have good brothers!

Great to see you out flying ...

loved the video, hated the loud music background.

Nice to see another great video from you Trent. I always like, and I've been a subscriber for a long time. Maybe one day I will fly down there and be your wing man for a day or two. Cheers from Winnipeg.

Hello from Minnesota! Great episode!

Looking at Trent's brake it looks like you could fabricate a brush guard for the brake lines and that would end any problem as far as something from the ground breaking the line.

Don't need breaks they only slow you down

This the same brother who’s trailer blew up too?! He may not wanna go near that lakebed anymore haha

The music from about 2:38 to about 3:22 was too loud, it was hard to hear you talking. It seems like it was a slow ramp up, were you intending for it to actually get louder at 3:22 for the takeoff, and accidentally put in a long buildup time?

Good vid! Surprised he is not rolling on a set of Beringer's!

I put a rental 182 into a field because the mechanic who did the annual didn't use a lockwire on the oil drain plug and it vibrated loose. That's one of the benni's of renting. I just called them, told them what happened, where their plane was and to come get it. I called a Lyft and was home for supper. That's why my dad always told me that if it flies, floats or f*cks, rent it. Ownership is overrated.

More dogs!! 🐕 ✈️

Wait - Trent was working on the hangar, and his brother flew by for fun and didn't stop to help?

I too live without tailwheel steering. I keep a very close eye on my brakes!

Thanks for sharing. I'll check my brakes better.

Background music a little too loud bro.

Funny people complaining about the loud music. I watch most youtube on mute and read the CC. It's all too loud (for me) to hear dialog.

I feel like I’ve seen that scene at 7:10 in some movie when someone opens the torture toolkit 🤣

Reach out to Steve at Aircraft Specialty Floghtlines for steel braided lines. Great quality and I have my Zenith Super Duty decked out with them.

Please please please bring back the FLYING COWBOYS?!?! Please

I realise how busy you are Trent,but how is Nic going?

If he got Brakefluid on the Disc he now also got it on his Brakepads now - Definitely change them - there is no way to get them fully clean again.

14:05 - When the dog started barking I thought he was dropping censored f-bombs.

liikes here, how many planes he break before? :) all good

Hardlines direct to caliper is a big no no in the Motorsport world . Crown performance in vista ca makes Kevlar dot stainless braided lines in any configuration and length you want . More than good enough for a small plane .

Steering, differential braking is the primary form of steering for off field landings and taxiing. Only form on the freedomfox, rudder doesn’t do anything without airspeed. My plane has tailwheel steering but if it’s bouncing through dirt it’s not getting enough traction to steer the plane, it’s just skipping and skidding along.
