Great insights were shared as Luke went through his check out and solo prep.
I learned a lot being there, and it was very rewarding to make this episode!
I am proud to be a member of the Canadian Aviation Museum (formerly CH2A).
They are a not-for-profit organization that anybody can visit, and (almost) any pilot can join and fly the planes. Please consider sharing their link, visiting the museum in Windsor, and/or sending a small donation to help them keep our historic warbirds flying!

FLIGHT CHOPS DISCLAIMER:
I am a "weekend warrior" private pilot, I fly for fun with no intentions of going commercial. I have had my PPL for over 20 years, but still consider each flight a learning experience - I generally take detailed notes after each flight to remind myself what went well or what I could do to improve.... Having GoPro cameras to record flights like this is invaluable. I find these self analysis videos very helpful in my constant quest to improve, and am happy to share. Feedback is invited; however, please keep it positive.

Watching these two perform acrobatics together is magical It would be a dream to one day fly with Ron. He is such an experienced and gifted aviator. I can’t imagine spinning that aircraft in complete IMC never mind with only a single instrument to boot Watching Ron enjoy the acrobatics, and that smile on his face is always special Another great episode !

So much wonderful stuff in this one... but you knew that. Hearing the Harvard's inertial starter really dates this one. Wish I'd gotten some instruction in the Harvard and Stearman. I miss the Chippie; I often wonder how much better my landings would be after 170+ hours and 386 landings in the RV-8. Missing the RV-8 a LOT. Currently looking at ultralights. Hoping to spend some time at Gambit Aviation next spring, getting instruction in their aircraft. Going to try to get my 3rd Class Medical renewed tomorrow. Wish me luck!

Drayton Valley, Alberta, summer of 1976. Saw one of these go over the local parade. I remember the wheels tucked up under, and the sound and feel of that engine as it did a low pass. Found out later that the owner was living a dream with that Harvard, and that he actually took lessons where I live, further north in Westlock. He always said “hi” when he was out over the area and he saw you out working in the field. He was indeed “the man”.

Great episode! After having Luke work with me and teach me how fly my RV6, it's nice to see him as the student. And I'm not surprised to see he took to it as quickly as he did! Truly a gifted pilot!

His ability to step into that bird and fly acro with the kind of precision that he was doing an impressed. Ron so quickly is a testament to his ability. Luke is one hell of a pilot.

00:02 I went from zero hours to solo in one day.. we did two flights.. a proficient tailwheel pilot should have no trouble. I did an hour zoom call over the systems the day before, but actually flight time was about 3 hours. Fun plane!

I love your channel and hope you had a great time visiting the Windsor area! I don't know how i didn't realize you've been in the city lots. Do you live in the area?

3 days - impressive!! Luke's hold on the stick is delicate most of the time (experience) unlike some folks who probably have a tight whole hand grip initially. Great video Steve. :)

The "No Negative G" thing is important to hear before you experience it. Was flying the EAA's RV-6A and doing stall practice. Once it dipped a bit too far on stall and the engine cut. Seems like the oil comes up out of the pan and somehow quenches the engine to stop. Not the end of the world, started back up, but not fun to see with no warning at 5k feet.

This plane is such a gas guzzler, it should not be flown in 2024... 30 gallons an hour burned to move one or two people... To do so is wildly irresponsible by the rich boys with their fancy toys. It's guys like these that drive up fuel costs for all of us. If you hate high fuel prices at the pump, thumbs down this video. You can get the same flight experience by flying FPV RC with virtually no energy costs at all and be fully aerobatic AND safe.

@@thehoeser Alright, lets see you do some tail slides, Lomcovaks, barrel rolls, inverted flat spins, and outside loops. It's a fighter aircraft rated for it.
