Very decent, carry on....

Well, that Mazda engine is recording more than 1000 data points per minute of run time, lighting up the correct "check engine" light *before* the engine quits.. - The GA engine records nothing. So, "less complex" does not mean more reliable. That complexity introduced to the modern car engines is the reason they became that reliable. Of course, such a complex engine cannot be fixed that easily. You need the mechanics to understand what each sensor does and why they are there. It generally requires more engineering knowledge than a collage dropout would have.

First in

15 years of development…

That engine is huge technology, and it might all work properly on the first day.

Canopy is way too big nice design around the rear, like the squarish shapes very nice.

Just one notice. Troublesome was first generation of Thirelert Centurion diesel. It was based on smaller and older construction OM668. 1,7L or about 103 cui. And really shortliving gearbox. Next generation of Thielert Centurion 4 cylinder, if still not perfect, but way better both engine and gearbox side, was based on OM640 2,0L or 121 cui. Now in automotive world outdated technology... 🙂 Otherwise great article. Main difference what differ between automotive and aeroplane engine is "load index", typical personal car engine work with 15-35% of maximal available power, aeroplane 65-75%. And in aeroplane ist weight of the engine also crucial. Therefore is not easy or simple to choose an car engine and install it in aeroplane. So why Thielert try MB engines for dieselisation of aeroplanes? MB build it also for vans (higher load index) and geman highways (high load index) = they have to be somehow "Vollgasfest". I fly actual P-2010TDI with (now) Continental Centurion 2,0S (reworked with higher compression and thus set for 125kW/170HP). Ufortunately not mine aeroplane... but for European fuel prices it is crazy economical, 70% of power mean 24L/h and 105-110kn IAS. What will use gasoline Cessna 172S or Piper Archer with IO360? With complex manual fuel and propeller management?

Excellent video. Thank you from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺

Superb vid. Thanks.

What was the point of your introduction featuring the Mazda CRV that "had zero engine failure". I would have suggested that whilst the CRV is a high output engine and therefore 'stressed' most drivers rarely drive that way. CRVs are light and today's roads are pretty tame. I would add, however, that reciprocating mass is much greater on the aircraft engines, especially in relation to the weight of the other components, notably the crankcase.

Pretty good explanation, after working 25 years in a class D tower. We had three runways in use. All day with around six to seven hundred operations per day. The Tracon would sequence the IFR's and we would weave the VFR's in front of and behind the IFR's. Never tell the tower you have the traffic in sight that you are supposed to follow when in fact you don't see it, and when you have traffic in sight, you are responsible for wake turbulence separation.

Pay too low?

Excellent video! I think a loss of an engine on takeoff is a great way to turn a pleasant flight into abject terror in an instant!

The Pilot Jet gets clogged.

That plane had "NO" in it's heart from the start

There is no doubt that JSX uses a loophole because it requires 1 company to own the 135 license, and a second company to actually sell the tickets. That being said the entire concept only works because they are trying to avoid an ATP license for pilots. There is a huge market for 800 hour pilots that want to get out of a Cessna 172 and fly multi-engine jets and willing to do that work for fairly cheap until they get their ATP minimums (and by that time their captain PIC time). JSX and others fly aircraft and server markets that no 121 operator can do because of the FAA requirements around pilots. Is it safe (its extra risk over 121 but your talking 30 passengers, not 200)... and frankly the markets it supports (and the ability to bypass TSA) is the market screaming that they want other options then centralized invasive flying.

Continental engines are very good

Germans and European manufacturing people are some of the best in the world right next to the American worker we are all in this together

When they refine fuel diesel is more than any other fuel I don't know why they don't do this in America they have scrutinized a diesel engine into the ground this is stupid thinking but this is the new green deal which is a shity idea thank you Joe Biden have a nice day go to jail

This man is a very smart person I commend him for his video he is a very smart and thorough individual he should be put on a pedestal God bless him have a nice day

Why do they always want to blame the mechanic the mechanic can only do what the customer wants to pay for it's always in their court is the customer never wants to do nothing right in the mechanic is stuck trying to Mickey mouse bailing wire these machines together this is a sad industry just like the automotive industry for 50 years and I've seen it done I'm in the heavy equipment industry this is why everything is crashing stupid people making stupid decisions

Why does it not have a intake grid heater like the Cummins have and or a glow plug heating system like the Duramax has very simple ideas that go for years and years and years let's get our s*** together let's try to do this right

I joined the USAF in 1964 and got basic aircraft maintenance training in Illinois. My first assignment was a 3 year tour to Madrid Spain, at 18 years old I was in heaven working on numeorus aircraft both jet and recips transitting Torrjeon AB. I got A&P license in 1969 cost me 5 bucks.

🤜⚡💥⚡🤛 We have the innovations to make the most efficient, low cost, quiet, power dense turbo engines possible...without a recuperator, even for microturbines. Talk?🤜⚡💥⚡🤛

Good video very informative

Just in case you didn't know. America still makes engines and cars. Your Mazda, Honda, & Toyota references shows you needed a reminder!

Hello, my GGrandfater V.V.Crouch was in Verdun in WWII part of a Railroad Battalion. There was an incident where 60 glider pilots showed up and needed to get back to get more gliders. This was problematic due to sabotage of tracks, equipment and communication. Supply drops not getting through until a night glider mission was put together. Parts flow in. Train assembled, track cleared. Locomotive was fired and dawn and they got through without any authorization from HQ. Has anyone heard this? Can anyone add to this? I do have some documents, photos that confirm some of this.

It’s been awhile since I have watched your channel, my apologies ahead of time, but I just wanted to say that you are one of the TOP educators/presenters I have experienced in my short life of 72yrs! Don’t ever think your work on earth has bee for naught! We love you!

Jabiru, sawed-off VW, Pipstrel electric… maybe those are in a different category.

Ryan is completely out to lunch and the reason the so-called pilot shortage is coming to abrupt end is because ding dong pilots took the bait that there was ever any pilot shortage in the first place. There are only waxing and waning periods of hiring demand, no shortage. There will never be a shortage. ALPA’s stance, beyond being true, is simply an attempt to save ding dong pilots from themselves and from the predatory nature of management. These factors along with ab-initio programs cranking out pilots woefully naive to how the industry really works means the only thing which will temporarily delay the annihilation of this career path is the near-term retirement curves at the legacies. Once that curve winds down there are going to be droves of naive ding dong pilots with 30 years left until retirement and they have no idea what’s going to hit them. I’ve seen this movie before. I wish I could provide a solution. Airline pilots are the most stupid group of smart people on the planet. That’s the problem.

0:26 "Manual automatic" lol Nothing sounds nice about that.

No more Paul Berterelli? No more views. WTF happened to avweb

"Big-ass pistons" is the correct measuring system.

It takes a lot more than those two levers to operate a steam locomotive. Sure, to make it move there's only the reverser/Johnson bar and the throttle. But, to allow the engine to function, there's valves controlling artificial drought to maintain air flow, water injectors to maintain water levels, grate shakers to keep the coal getting fresh air or fuel injector control if it's oil fired as some later steam was, auger control if equipped or fuel pump, flue controls, track sanders, and I'm probably forgetting some other stuff. All needs to constantly be monitored by the fireman to anticipate when the engineer is going to need more power, keep the fire lit, and prevent the boiler from exploding.

Pistons the size of beer kegs? Hardly. Pistons from railroad engines, now that's approaching beer keg size!

At 0:31 a Manual Automatic transmission??

So the NTSB allows almost a third of engine failures to be unknown, and they’re obviously ok with that. I doubt I’ll ever be riding in a GA plane but they have been known to impact the routine of people on the ground. Scary

Tell me something…when you gather your statistics on how many ATPs and Commercial pilots are out there do you factor in the amount of foreign pilots that are not eligible to work in the United States or is that just the total number of licenses issued?

So obviously when the auto shutdown button doesn't work they're going to use every round in their magazine after pit maneuvering you without warning because your obviously a hacker.

Garmin using words carefully when describing their auto-design strategy ;-) - not implying that their system(s) are the early stages of full implementation in coming years - you could say a test-bed for the aviation industry using light aircraft to gather performance data and aircrew/passenger/operator confidence. As many people in the industry know.

Maybe their bosses are jerks?

An excellent video. Thanks Paul

Aircraft engines quit when it makes a power change.

Not only did he save lives on the plane, but he save lives on the ground too. He knew what he was doing. He had a feeling because he’s flown so much and had so much experience. He just knew what he had to do! Remaining calm and his copilot, they saved not just a live on the plane, but the lives on the ground! I wouldn’t hesitate to call him the greatest pilot EVER!!!

wow but maintenance or rebuilds Toque specs but must have an accurate dialed in Toque wrench so start with

Thanks Paul! Great breakdown!

Where are they going to find that many pilots? I can see them being a helicopter replacement but what's the civilian market for helicopters? I reckon Uber has grown the market for what are essentially taxi services but maybe 2 or 3 times mainly because they're cheap (and convenient) but flying can't be cheap because the pilots always have to be highly trained and not just any warm body with a driver's licence and aircraft have to be paid for and not by the pilot like it is with Uber drivers. If they're well built, these things will likely be cheaper to run than a regular helicopter/light aircraft because there's a lot less maintenance but it'll take awhile to get there and they can't follow the “build it fast and break stuff” model that Tesla uses. The FAA will not let their safety rules be disrupted.

Watch out lycomeing 😊

I'd much rather use an automotive engine that an aviation product, it's been a long time since the reliability thing was convincing beyond the doubling up of magnetos - which isn't exactly impossible on an automotive system. Kinda blows my mind how relying on inefficient 1960s steam power is still "best practice". Using small turbo automotive units in light aircraft would probably do a lot for reliability but also power and consistency: how many density altitude deaths would be avoidable with turbocharged engines? Ditto all the other problems caused by flying underpowered kites that stall and crash if you go outside a 40 knot flight window, can't climb, can't turn fast, just basically lumber around just about flying 🤷‍♂️
