Reviews for @baselegaviation1614 YouTube channel:

Thanks for the great pictures and tutorial! I learned to fly out of the old Wasilla, Ak airport before they moved it out of downtown. Beautiful place to fly for sure! Just recently found your channel and really like the informative content you produce. Thank you. @curtisl3595

Just wanted to give you a shout out for all the videos you put together for first flight prep. 
I got my airworthiness cert last Weds. and the weather co-operated this weekend in order for me to have a successful first flight. No major issues, just a couple of minor things to look into. I’d say that’s probably pretty typical. I watched that video series a couple of times as I was mentally preparing myself for this over the last few weeks. Thank you for all you do providing info and other safety related things we builders/owners should know. Appreciate themAdam B

Thanks for sharing these videos Vic. They are super helpful to this first time builder 🙂 @bertschb

I built and own a Zenith 601 XL with an O-235 engine. Even though you seem to specialize in RV’s, so much of what you post and write about is applicable to my plane. I really appreciate it! I’ll be checking my alternator belt tomorrow because I have not looked closely at it in some time, even though I do a quick tension check before every flight. You education efforts are appreciated Vic! @gawebm

This is honestly one of the best channels on YouTube. Simple straightforward discussion about an amazing project. Keep it up   OU’s Must Know

Every time one of your videos comes out… I learn something new. Thanks Vic to you and your crew for taking the time in making these videos!!!  Paul’s Channel

Once again, your free advice is priceless. Thank you seems inadequate. I’m sure I speak for thousands of RV owners when I say “Thanks” for taking the time to film these YouTube videos…. The life you save may be………..MINE.   TinPusher
