Emergency Smoke in Cockpit - LongNoseThunder Re-Reflight Ep3 - Turbine P-51 Thunder Mustang Kitplane

Engine trouble, a fuel feed issue, smoke in the cockpit, electrical anomalies and then when the gear wouldn't go down the emergency extension handle came off in my hand. Come along on this cross country adventure in the baddest mustang replica on the market (did I mention the airplane is for sale?).

The Wasabi relationship with the LongNose goes back to 2016 but this particular series is about the program to retrieve the airplane from Deland Florida where it was having some engine work done by Quentin Cook at Turbine Power Technologies. I hope you enjoy. Meet you in the comments.

Check out episode one of this series:    • Inspection - LongNoseThunder - Re-Ref...  

Some of the flights from 2016 are documented here:

Thank you for coming along with us. We at Wasabi feel so fortunate to have customers like Lance willing to show their test programs and a vibrant community like this to share that work with.
