Hire a video editor who can edit for both Mark and yourself, just look for some local highschool or college kid and have him come to the shop and edit videos, it will pay off in no time as you will be able produce many more videos. Maybe eventually go all out, Patey Pilot Productions

Thanks for having this chat in the hanger as I’ve learned a little bit more about you two. I love what you do and I support what you do. I can’t wait to see what you guys come up with next. I would love to meet you I don’t know when I would ever get out from Colorado and go that way. Thanks a bunch guys.

These guys are the most inspirational people ever

Wow! Anybody with just HALF the energy and drive of one of the Pateys is bound to do well in life. Just think of the things we'll still see from them in the future! - Martin

Between them, Mike and Mark have more energy than half the US population combined! Love both of them.

So here is the deal, I am not a pilot I just love aviation. Anyway I happen to attend the AOPA fly-in at the Livermore airport with my kids, Mike was there with Draco and they had just done some flying Stol competition with the rest of the Cowboy crew. When I approached just to see Draco with my kids Mike was amazingly pleasant. He had said hi to my two little girls and began to talk to them so specifically, about flying and Draco it was just a very cool moment. Since that day I have been watching Mike and Mark's channels. I certainly believe in earning your keeps and the Patey's show it. May you and your family stay safe and continue to have the time of your lives.

These two brothers and their wives are a quartet of ambassadors for general aviation! There was a period of time when flying was unaffordable, but now with all the kits and experimental planes available, almost anyone can afford to fly if they want to! The Patey families make it look so inviting. Whenever new videos are put on KZread, I always look for theirs first!

Mikes videos are what's important. I couldn't care less about the audio. I've never had a problem hearing him anyway and I watch all his videos.

No time for interviews....... Scrappy still needs to get into the air. BACK TO WORK!!

Great job with the interview of MIKE & MARK!!! These two individuals are absolutely amazing!!!

Great interview. Honestly I've never had a problem telling Mike and Mark apart.

The Patey Brothers are infectious! (In a good way!)

I so love these guys. Their Best Tugs are something we've needed in aviation for years. I've been trying to get my company to at least try them because we are so fixed on the "old ways" and so many of our customers have had the same concerns about towbarless tugs that Mark had with his wife's Cirrus. The "big two" of towbarless tug builders haven't changed their technology in almost 30 years and it's guys like this who will finally pull us into the 21st Century in aviation.

Met these two at Osh....what a pair of men... they ARE mortal !.... and are seriously motivated.

I've been watching Mike and Mark Patey for quite awhile and they are so incredibly positive and inspirational and as Mike said, he is excited for other peoples successes as they are, how can you not just live people like they are!!! They're amazing guys! I love their videos and Taking Off's videos too! Thanks for having them on!

12:35 in...The entire reason why I am hooked on Mike Patey videos. "If it is important to you...Back to work!" Thanks Mike, you are a true inspiration!

It’s incredible to learn that you, Mike, work a full time job and STILL get SO MUCH done on scrappy! I’ll never complain about how much sleep I lack again lol. I don’t do much aviation anymore after buying some property and some jeeps. My time is torn between those two things while working, trying to spent time with my family and still getting the sleep I need. It’s crazy you are able to manage all that.

Don't worry about the mic, Mike, we can hear you just fine. Thanks for all the great videos.

Love hearing the personal side of these guys story. It’s amazing that in addition to being incredible plane builders these guys are multi time successful founders. They both have such great attitudes and work ethics. It’s not hard at all to see why they have been widely successful.

I now know more about Mike Patey than I ever did. I enjoy the SCRAPPY build and glad I found this video.

Watching this behind the scenes was a blast! Both these guys have electric personalities!

I thought I loved the Patey brothers before this... but now it's even more so!

what a great video to know them better.... loved it!!! back to work!!!!

I love anything with Mike and his brother in it. That just gave their channel a boost.

I don’t know about everyone else, but the Pateys are people I definitely want to meet and get to know. The energy level and ability to make amazing things happen they demonstrate is astounding and inspirational. Great interview.

It's so great to see and hear Mike and Mark. I really love what they're doing for the aviation world. They are truly role models for the rest of us. They show us that it is possible to balance work, family, and play time and be happy. Giving credit to their wives and family is awesome. I'm really blessed to have a supportive wife too and I've learned to not neglect her in the pursuit of my hobbies. One thing they discussed is being competitive. I love what Mike said about that. His attitude is perfect, he feels good for others if (by some odd chance) they beat him, not mad that he lost, and there is zero jealousy. That's the way we all need to be, try to improve, but not just to beat someone else. Lift others up. He has more fun than anyone else I know. I fly RC model planes, and like Mark has with the flying cowboys and his other aviation friends, we have absolutely the best group of people ever. We love, help, and support each other and have all the fun we can stand. Okay, back to work, no wait, I'm retired, okay back to play.

Fun video. Those Tugs look really awesome. I'm going to be checking out their products. Thanks for all the great content.

These two guys are off the charts. It's amazing there passion on everything they do.

THANKS, Mark, Mike, and Taking Off. Much enjoyed. Can't get enough of Mike's builds and explanations. Looking forward to the vids Mark was promising.

awesome interview, awesome guys, awesome planes. Such an inspiration to the aviation community. I never miss a show of Mikes, his dedication is also "awesome"

Wow.... What great men, what great spirits. Thanks for the insight.

THESE TWO GUYS ARE SO GREAT, LOVE MIKES CHANNEL. #MIC'S4MIKE

What an impressive pair of brothers! And a great pair of hosts as well!

I LOVE Mike's Outlook on life, Family and Aviation. I watch every video you guys put out and of course Can't wait for every Video Mike makes !

Mike, Mark, simply put, you guys are Awesome. Thanks for sharing your lives with us. God Bless you both and your loved ones.

Wow! Inspirational, motivational , loving, caring, overachieving, and more. I love your energy. Thank you gentlemen.

Excellent interview, nice to see what is behind the scenes and who the person really is. I love their videos, they see that you learn something and keep you wanting more. Take care.

You guys are my heroes. I so admire your work ethic and the quality of the work you produce. Keep up the great "work" you do and now get back to work!

Brothers Patey, thank you! Your positive competitiveness, your passions for family, life and aviation are truly inspirational! I’ve been a fortunate member of aviation for 35 years and feel blessed for it in my life. Thank you for doing so much to grow general aviation!

Very nice video, thank you. The Patey's are an inspiration to us all. With a "squirrel moment".

These two brothers right here are such a HUGE inspiration to sooo many Aviators.

Dan and Christy, thank you for the awesome interview with Mike and Mark Patey. You are all truly inspirational. A huge thank you to you and Christyfor all the work and dedication you guys put into the channel. Also thank you to Mike and Mark Patey for all that they do.

Thanks Kevin, we REALLY appreciate the kind words and encouragement!

I have been watching Mike for some time now and l'm always amazed with his drive, excitement and skills to get things done. After listening to this interview l now understand where it all comes from, the "lets get back to work" It's a way of life that needs to be taught once again to all our children, teach them how to work with their hands, how to create and solve problems, somehow this valuable lesson got lost in our society. These two men are truly an inspiration to all, thank you for sharing this valuable information.

Fabulous interview from behind the scenes. Thanks

Thanks guys.....enjoyed it...

My “Best Tug” is the envy of my hangar mates!

Great interview with the Patey brothers. I love Mike Patey, he is so inspiring and has the most amazing attitude. So I was attracted to his videos cause he loves planes and builds planes, omg it doesn't get better then that but his attitude and his motivation and he just always seems so happy just inspires me. I want to be even slightly like him and be as motivated. I wish I knew where he gets it from. Anyway, one of my Idols on you tube. Thank you for that interview and thanks Mike and Mark. You guys are my heros and inspiration. "Time to get back to work"!!!!

Didn't think I could like Mike Patey's videos more than from his own channel. Class act guys.

These guys are very intelligent and have a great work ethic. I admire the two of them.

If ALL of the workforce of the United States had the Patey Brothers values and work ethic, just think about what the GNP would be here in the USA. Ain't no free lunch, the Patey Bros. prove it... Back to Work!

I've traveled across the U.S. to meet these two and the Oshkosh forum '18 was great,... RENO '19 was even better, Mike was kinda free to talk to and I did, what a great pair of guys for aviation ! Thank You Mike & Mark for sharing all..... hope to see ya again in 2021.

As someone that attended Friday and Saturday as a spectator, thank you all so much for coming to the middle of no where for this. Stearman is a local gem of a field. They have done so much to it. Hopefully this will become an annual event here at Stearman. So much better to just relax here than to have it at a huge event. Thanks again!!!

What a great week-end! No a Strong-end! The ACCA was a smashing success! Look for it in 2021. I got to meet all 4 of the characters! As successful as they all are,,,,,, they're really down-to-earth people! The Patey's really want you to succeed in whatever you're doing. Great sound and video set-up Dan and Christy! Very Professionally done!

Thank you Mike for the videos, very great stuff! My nephew is an aeronautical Engineer and these give us lots to talk about!

The audio/video quality is just fine.

Thank you guys so very much for your dedication to these products . I worked at a FBO for 20 years and when we went to a electric tug it was the best thing we ever did .Only problem i had with it was that it was not big enough to move a G - 5 hangered there. We had a lot of hangered a/c and that thing made moving them a breeze.

Tony Stark man! Love Mike's vids and his engineering skills. Quite inspirational.

Brilliant inspirational people with a real passion for aviation and innovation.

I can only imagine the Family impetus that fostered these 2 Kings of Industry. I would be interested in hearing about their Father/Mother Family past and how it played what roles in their futures. They both do seem like genuinely nice people.

I've never seen anyone with more positive energy than Mike. TV and Internet Journalist need to interview and give more airtime to people like Mike and Mark. Now back to work....🙌🏻

They are absolute legends!

Mike is clearly a “completionist” - he likes to follow through to whatever end it is. Can’t wait to see scrappy complete and draco back in the air.

Great Show / Love the Patey Brothers

The Patey's are a blessing to aviation!

I can only imagine these guys parents are some of the most amazing people to have raised a pair of such inspired and genuine dudes.

He blows my mind in every single episode! 😎 FANTASTIC interview, Dan & Christy!

good job, congratulations, I'm also an airplane lover, greetings from Paraguay❤

I see this similar competitive attitude in robotics competitions. The winners get cheered on by the ones not in the next round. Great to see you guys communicate it!

outstanding!!!

These guys are absolutely brilliant. Inspiration to the T

Love you guys!

just mic up the hangar and the tools or setup a few 360° cameras and keep them running all day ;-)

I’m brand new to Mikes channel and I can see a huge difference between them. Mike always has that smile on, plus Mark seems like a bigger guy. Both awesome guys though. Wish i could do 1/10th of what mike can do. Guy know how to do everything.
