Qunantum 912 restoration: WingNuts Micro Maintenance S3 E1 

Green with envy. Watxhing you tinker with aircraft takes me back to my Air Force days when I was a Rigger.

Loved the bloopers at the end and good to see the Blue Quantum back in the skies.

Great, really enjoyed that, especially the check flight :)

Excellent Mark, really enjoyed it! 👌

The premier of crotch cam! Great video Mark 👍🏼

👍 great vid

Brilliant, really useful video. Well done all!

Great video showing the work you do.

Great video love seeing how it's all done 👍

Another great and informative video, I am sure just by watching your video's that many pilot's will take a closer look at their own aircraft to make sure everything is how it should be. Looking forward to season 3. :-)

Absolutely brilliant video. Really enjoyed it, very informative. Great to see you back for season 3.

Another fascinating programme - thank you 👍😊 Looking at the mounts on the flexwing and the spark plugs...... Technically speaking the make of a spark plug should - in theory, I hasten to add - make no difference if they're a like for like, and a cross referenced replacement (that may be different further up the food chain in aviation with various types of certification). However when I started work in a motor factor's, more years ago than I care to remember, Vauxhall Vivas (HB and HC models iirc) would only run correctly/well on AC Delco spark plugs (sadly I can't recall the part number now; 44XLS' or 415TS'?) even though Champion N9Ys were a great plug and a direct replacement. NGKs wouldn't work and Bosch, although a great plug (our best sellers at that time we were ahead of the curve) most Viva owners wouldnt chance them. We had an ex REME (and ex time served automotive electrician) as our manager and he couldn't fathom it. I suspect it was temperature range issues. So we had to stock AC Delco spark plugs just for Vauxhall Vivas. Mad but true. Of course AC Delco were OEM suppliers for Vauxhall at the time. We would get customers coming in with all sorts of weird and wonderful stories about why they had to use x, y or z manufacturers' parts (complete fiction most of the time, driven by marketing hype, some were convinced when we offered, informed, alternative, cost effective and/or better choices, some weren't 😄😄). Back then I knew part numbers and cross reference numbers off by heart. But Vauxhall Vivas and AC Delco spark plugs were wed for life so it seemed. On the flexwing, that spark plug gap of 1mm is cavernous! And carbon fouling can be due to; rich mixture, blocked air filter, faulty choke, the spark plug gap being too big etc, all of which can lead to a misfire 😲 Whomever fitted them, either adjusted them incorrectly (Bosch usually preset - but it's always worth dragging a feeler gauge through them - for motor vehicle applications), as the gap seems so large, or they were never checked from the box/adjusted for the application. That's scary, to my mind, in the world of aviation!

Nice video apart from the overbearing musak at some points! However, considering all the jobs that were needed, I expected to see more details of what was being done, i.e. inspection of the gearbox, checking of the wing tubes for set or cracking around holes, corrosion and fretting of fasteners, etc. Maybe there was too much work for just one video, but it seems lots of jobs were mentioned, but no further detail were shown.

Hello wingnuts! I am looking for Pylon protection for the Quantum.

G'day. Heard that towards the end it was mentioned that engine had "more" issues. What were they and how were they solved? Greetings from 🇦🇺 Australia

Hi, was it you that did the flex wing sail replacement?….I can’t find it. 🤔

Love these videos, but the music.... Is it really necessary?

When someone is talking, stop with the music. It's not necessary.
