This is the last video in the Turbulence build series. Finally able to get it out! For those wondering, Turbulence is still down. I am close to finding an engine for it, and then it will require a long road trip with tools and some long days swapping the engine out. I'm hoping after my house is complete to make it out there to do the engine swap. Don't worry though, we'll make a video of it! If I missed anything about Turbulence please comment below and I'll try to answer questions.

⁠@@malcolmmalcolm7829I bet Mike has a rigorous schedule where his days are fully mapped out months in advance. He pulls off an enormous amount of work because of his discipline. I guarantee that if he had had time, he would have made a minute for you. He’s an awesome guy who genuinely cares for people. I’m sure Cleetus was already mapped in there

@@malcolmmalcolm7829I don't know who you are, or even if I should for some reason, but to throw shade at a guy like Mike just because he couldn't meet with you is beyond my comprehension. I am sorry but all I can say is Boo Hoo, get over yourself, Mike is one of the busiest people I have ever met, do you have any idea how many directions he is pulled every single day between all his businesses, his aviation endeavors, speaking engagements, building a house, building planes, search and rescue, and a hundred other things. I would guess Mike gets hundreds if not thousands of requests a year to meet with someone, it would be physically impossible for him to accommodate every one of those requests for his time, and for you to complain because he met with Cleetus and not you screams massive narcissism.

I love all your videos, the engineering, the excitement, the fun. But something that you said here touched my heart and it wasn’t about aviation. It was about fresh water for the world. Our church adopted some villages in Gana, Africa, and when we first got there, the villagers were getting all of their water from an infested river. The digestive diseases they had were terrible. We were able to first supply water filtration systems, then rainwater harvesting systems, and finally fresh water wells. The change in their health has been amazing. Unfortunately there are places all around the world where the people are still drinking polluted water. Thanks to people like you, solutions are being tried to turn this around. Thank you for that, and for the great aviation content!!

Mike thank you for letting us see a little piece of your incredible world. With the challenge that you have spoken of, of a airframe that has high speed yet can then turn into a slow flight aircraft in my opinion is the true need for the firefighting air tanker aircraft for the next generation. The modification of commercial jets to do the job is great for response, but speed reduction for safe application is the challenge. I can see your knowledge having such a huge positive impacts for the future of firefighting. And again thank you for all the positive impacts you have already done and continue to do.
