Loved the fact you showed your friend's airplane getting fixed, and what the problem was. Thanks for keeping things real. Stuff happens like this in aviation. It is good to see this kind of experience. Helps all of us to understand things better. Great job Trent!
Great to have such good friends that rally for each other. The aviation community is like no other! Thanks for bringing that home to us Trent!
That thing scared the crap out of me. -Let's give it another try.

Jeez! Had to replace a cylinder in the field? That's brutal. You documented the process well, my friend! Great video!
I'm not a big flight nerd, I don't play flight sims, I do like the tech behind a lot of the nav systems and such but for some reason Trent's videos are some of my favorite of any content creator. I find myself going back and watching old videos still as I am now they are so good. You are just such a bright personality on camera and seem genuinely kind. If you are the kind of person you seem like on camera, you deserve all the good things that have happened to you. Thanks for the content.
The Permagrin on your face says it all. Glad you are in the air again, and I add my thanks is for not leaving the wounded plane as a cliffhanger.
Loving the content Trent! Keep the quality coming. Such an inspiration dude.
Trent, I've flown most Airbuses (currently operate the A-380) and have been an airline pilot for the last 12+ years. I'm working hard at setting up secondary sources of income so that I can finally pull the plug on flying for a living and go back to flying for fun! It was one hell of a rewarding career, I was paid to see the world, but the stress, increased productivity with no end in sight and lack of sleep that accumulates from the job is killing me. Awesome videos, glad to see you back up in the air!
Trent, thank you for putting out this video. If you are ever in the southern Ontario region, I owe you a beer. Because of this video, my student did not experience complete power loss while up in the air today. (TL;DR below) I received a call from a student of mine today who was flying on his personal C172. He was complaining of "severe" engine vibration in flight, but said that it went away after he applied carb heat. He decided to come around and land as soon as possible anyway to check it out. I told him about the effects of carb icing and how it can be a hazard to flying. He then told me that he had some engine roughness on the right mag when he did his runup. Fine, that's probably spark plug fowling. I told him to do a runup and try to clear the fowling with the procedure in the POH, but if it didn't work, it could be something as serious as a cracked cylinder head (this video was popping into my head). He calls me back an hour later to let me know that it didn't clear, so he grabbed an AME. During a boroscope of the cylinder, they found a crack. ----- tl;dr: This video put the idea and symptoms of a cracked cylinder in my head and when my student called with those symptoms, he got an AME instead of a takeoff clearance and lived to fly another day.
Love your stabilized camera in the back, gives a better perspective of the bank angles. Sorry Jake had some problems. I knew when the electrode was hammered that was going to need a cylinder. A new definition of "field repair". My dad parked his J-3 in a cow pasture one night and came back with most of the fabric missing. Cows like the taste of the butyrate dope used to shrink the fabric.

Just subscribed. I love airplanes. I wish I was up in one again, I don't know if my doctor would ever clear me to ride in a plane again, I love to photograph and do videos of sky divers jumping out of the plane, and the flight itself. I have an exceptional shot of one guy that was getting ready to jump, where I got the sky in his visor, and the look on his face right before he jumped which was priceless. He looked so pumped right before jumping out. It was pure magic.
Good to see you back in the air! I'm sorry Jake had a jug problem, but I'm glad it happened where he was, with all of you, and that he could get the help he needed. Glad to see him back in the air! Thanks for sharing this with us.

I've worked on ground-based engines almost my whole life, and have never seen a plug electrode get smashed closed on anything that didn't lose a con-rod, or grenade internally. Not familiar at all with how that aircraft engine is laid out, but the valve, due to the bad guide, must've had enough slop in it to move over and smack the plug! INTERESTING! I'll always remember this one. 😎 Not to mention, AMAZING videography of the flight! I know I'd have been overjoyed to be back at it, after all those weeks grounded. Thanks for another great one! 👍👍

@user-oj4xh8cg2l
5 жыл бұрын
what is shown on the footage is a valve lacking its spring collet keepers (the 2 halves that keep it within the collet thanks to spring pressure) - is that linked to a valve guide issue? that would be interesting to know. Usually the problems with valve guides is they are worn out and let oil pass by, they are too tight (improper reaming tolerances) and get the valve seized or stuck, or they move (when poorly installed, e.g. wrong press fit tolerances)... A moving guide may lead to valve moving, seating poorly, then things starting to break things within the combustion chamber like plugs after getting off its spring somehow, but I don't picture clearly how the initial issue would be the valve guide breaking.
Glad to know Jake is back in the air and it wasnt anything more serious than a jug . I lost a number 1 jug on my 1958 Cessna 172 , same thing a broken valve guide , scary ride but made it to my home airport safe and sound . that was quite a few years ago .

I see a hybrid gasoline / electric engine in the future with a geared reduction drive and a clutch ( which is in use today on rotax ) with the electric assist motor on the propeller side of the equation ( in order to decouple the failed gas engine instantly ) ..... This has nothing to do with fuel economy or the environment .... what it has to do with is the astounding takeoff power of the gas / electric motor combined and the dual engine redundancy for a period long enough to find a place to land ...... The lithium batteries would not be large and heavy ... just enough to give massive power boost on takeoff and about 10 minutes run time in the event of gasoline engine failure ...... This is the future .... Not because its remotely environmental .... but because of astounding takeoff performance and an increase in safety by a factor of 10,000 times for more ...... far safer than asymmetrical thrust issues of twins that require lightning fast thinking on takeoff engine failure ... not as safe as twins over vast stretches of open water or badlands ... but ...... 10 minutes to ditch is worlds better than 10 seconds to ditch.... and twins are not found on small bush planes anyway .... This would be ideal for bush planes ... especially the near vertical climb out capability this setup would most certainly achieve

MicKMuzZ MKMZ Yes the Lycoming engines use mags and 3 electrode plugs. Some have been converted to electronic ignition and use automotive type plugs and wires on experimental aircraft. The systems have advance for better fuel efficiency and the plugs are $5 instead of $20. I think a piece of the valve guide got into the cylinder and frizzed the electrode here.
I think you are the most underrated KZreadr! Seriously I freaking love your videos. I don’t understand why other airplane flyers like you don’t make videos as well. It’s so interesting and the footage you get is amazing. Seriously please don’t stop making videos and don’t listen to the negative comments. They don’t deserve your time. I subscribed to your channel right when I saw the first video from you. Amazing work!!!!!
Another great video, Trent. We're glad to see you back in the air and making content. These videos really make me want to take a mountain flying course. Does anyone have any recommendations?

not any more. Foolish Pilot.
Damn, that engine failure sound in the intro gave me the chills. I've exeprienced it a few weeks ago and I don't wish it to anyone.
What fun! Years ago I used to explore this region in a J-3. Fantastic time...
when i saw the title i thought it happened to you again

I was sure it was him, and somehow caused by the recent valve replacement. Glad to hear that wasn't it.

That was my first thought too.
I love the shots when turning! Sweet gimbal action?
Sooooooooo goood! It's all exceptional - the flying, shots, and story. Keep crushing it, Trent! Yeww!

Thanks dude!!!
That was FUN!! to watch. amazing restraint was demonstrated by leaving the airplane in the bush. I would have been so tempted to nurse it home.
So nice to see someone "top off" their tanks! Happens more often than not. LOL
Trent, living my dream! 200 hour tailwheel endorsed PPL here... one day I'll work my way into the back country.
Never knew about this kind of flying. Thanks for opening a new world to me. Danny G
Glad to see your back.
The old inexpensive “ArmStrong starter”; Oops did I just date myself? So what would it cost to get am electric starter for that plane? Also what are the ongoing cost to own a plane? Once a plane is paid for what are the ongoing cost such as hanger rental , annual inspections and that type of thing.
When landing, you are pulling the elevator frequently between neutral and full pull, which you can see at minute 3:58 . Why do you do this? We glider pilots always try to make continuous rudder inputs to minimize the drag.

Stefan Langer it's so he can make that greasy smooth landing. Did you see how sweet it was. 😎

I think that is normally done to scrub off speed, no?

He never gave it full deflection till touchdown. Who cares about drag when you are seconds from touchdown anyways?

0Calvin p. I do it to check pitch control. Let's you know exactly when you can come full aft without ballooning . It's all by feel in that type of flying. Stay loose! Enjoy!

Stefan, he's no glider pilot, that takes smooth skill and no engines allowed.
That engine sounded so sweet after the field repair. Someone really knows what they are doing. Thanks for the video!
I’ve always wanted to be a pilot at a young age that was my dream, when I got older I was denied due to being color blind didn’t stop me from my passion of flight I joined the Air Force to at least be around aircraft, got injured loading a C17 and was medically discharged now I spend the better have of my day watching your videos, well what I’m trying to get to is keep up the good work I enjoy the he’ll out of your videos
