Old mechanic's tip: Don't tighten any of the screws until you've started all of them. Especially when there's a complicated or large surface.

I'm an aircraft engineer and worked on RAF Harriers. I have broken one of the three part windshield. I left every screw loose until they were all in, then tightened them in sequence. I got to the last one and a crack appeared. Afterwards my boss noticed something strange and checked the thickness. It was 3mm thicker than it should have been. That got me off the hook.🙂

One of my favorite parts about this channel is talking to the Rescue Crew!

The purpose of the rebuild rescue project is not just fix one plane but give steady income from KZread to the creator of this channel. I won’t be surprised if this takes another 3 years to get completed.

My forearms hurt watching you do all those screws by hand. It's coming along nicely. Doing it the right way may take longer, but it will save you so many headaches down the road. I think I'll be sad when it's finally done. The journey has been fantastic. ☮

Dear Jason and crew, The Cessna 401 starts to look step by step like a plane and I’ve lots of respect how you guys managed to place the front windows but the result is absolutely stunning. By every vlog about this refit I’m positive this plane will fly and will be constructed even better than it left the factory simply because the factory at that time was under pressure to produce Cessna’s in time and you guys don’t have such a pressure what means you can spent more time for every detail than the factory was able to do. I’m very keen to watch your next vlog and send you love from the Netherlands

Absolutely... just get multiple screws started, and an assembly fit loosely before tightening everything up. Always!

From an old retired motorcycle mechanic, always get all screws started before tightening.

Many ways to skin a cat as they say, it's all signed off By A&P end of the day,

At 20.15 I saw one of the cable wires are frayd (not sure if this word correct in english)

I’d recommend making some guide pins out of AN3 bolts so you can better line up your retaining plates and your windshields. I’d also say that using a toothpick to apply sealant to the screws is going to be a disaster. Applying a liberal amount of PRC/Pro Seal would do a substantially better job of sealing everything. On King Air 200s we dip the screws in soapy water so the PRC doesn’t stick to the screws but still provides a tight seal during installation.

Tedious 😮 patient grass hopper. 😎💪🏻

Anti chafing tape sure looks a lot like 3M electrical tape

goodness me Joe you look soo much younger with your hair and beard cut ......great job......

Great job. But i'm wondering if that green sealant is too thick, seems a bit excessive, makes the trim bulge and look "not right"

Hiya Jason

Another tip work from the center out like tightening a head center out trust me she is looking so good

What I've learned in aviation or just automobiles you always install ALL of the screws or bolts loosely then when they are all in then tighten them down evenly so the metal always stays somewhat straight.

Jason, the 401 and Rebuild Rescue has been the driving factor for getting me into aviation. I discovered your channel about 6 mo ago and have watched every video you've put out since. Some of them multiple times! The inspiration from your channel led to me finding my own free Ercoupe 415-D that I'm working at getting back into flying condition. Keep up the good work! I'm a 20 year old fellow just getting into aviation and I'd say that Rebuild Rescue's videos have been the single greatest factor in igniting my love of aviation and driving my choice to get my pilot's license. Would love to meet you in person sometime and compare stories!

Why did you not seal the windshield with PR-1425 B 1/2? The rubber gasket is ok but will deteriorate quicker than the B 1/2. Otherwise the project is looking great!!! I'm currently working on my 76 muskeeteer B19 150.
