There is this guy who loves to fly. You can hear it in his voice you can see it in his eye that he always wants to fly. And when he’s done having fun he flies for pay so he can continue to have fun and fly another day.
(Pilot Juan

Brilliant. We’ve had powered flight for just over 118 years. Harvey has been around for over half that time.

This is why I absolutely love and subscribe to this channel ! Thank you Juan for taking us on this adventure. Your narration is clear and precise and absolutely second to none. Thank you again. Keep the videos coming

As I age and await my final destination,  I aM still able to relive the art of flight thanks to you , jaun, and others.  Although I am no longer able to fly myself,  it is videos such as this that allow me to relive the excitement and adventure of my time as a pilot.   THANK YOU MY FRIEND.   JUST AL

Juan, I was born in 1959 & I'll be 63 in a few weeks.
I wish I was in as good a shape as 'ole Harvey is!
Thank you for bringing the joy of flight to us all each and every time we ride with you.
Love you brother. You're the best!

I can’t even explain how much I enjoyed this. I miss flying and have recently decided I am not going to get back into it. I simply don’t have the time to be proficient and safe. So this was like spending a day doing the type of flying I loved most. No real schedule. Just me and the plane…and Juan in this case.

Didn’t know I’d be flying with with one of the best instructors & tour guides today without leaving my couch. Only one thing would have made it perfect : my own order of crepes!

1959? That's Amazing. The design looks as good today as when it was introduced.

Love to have a Harvey 310 fly-in with Jimmy’s World’s 310 restoration project when it’s completed. Then we’d have a quad ‘Can we get a Clear Prop’. Great pre-take off and flying video Juan, really appreciated it.

That walk round makes you realise just how advanced the 310 was at the time. A truly streamlined airplane almost to military standard.

A 63 year old airplane..... and absolutely stunning.  Absolute joy of a flight / video.  Thanks from England.

When I was a kid my all-time favorite TV program was sky king. His first plane was a T50 and then a 310 it is still one of the prettiest airplanes I think ever made.

The 310 was always a great airplane to fly back in the mid 60s, the best thing about flying the 310 is remembering.

The plane is loved and cared for "in a manner she has been accustomed to" in the past 40 yrs. Statement made my day 😊

Amazing how much different your 1959 C model is from my 1961 F model.  Your O2 is in the back, mine in in the nose.  Aux fuel filler recessed while mine is flush.  Unless I'm mistaken, the POH has my mains at 62 PSI not 80.  I need to double check, perhaps I misread.  Make sure you or your I/A pulls those mufflers periodically for inspection.  The vibration from the exhaust gas pulses work hardens and fatigues the outer skins.  They eventually develop cracks and begin venting exhaust gases into the cavity.  Not pretty when it does - ask me how I know.  The inspection panel on top of the wing lets you inspect the augmenter tubes as they enter the mufflers but you need to to pull the mufflers to inspect the skins.  All and all a great twin.  I love mine, which other than for a swept tail, has almost the same paint scheme as yours.

I wish I could have looked as good as Harvey at 60. I’m now almost 70 and need O2 at 4000 feet. Juan, I really appreciated the care and professionalism you demonstrated on making certain Harvey was ready to fly.

When I was about twelve - right about when Harvey was built! - I had a model of the 310.  I was most meticulous about painting it carefully to a Cessna colour and pattern.  I have always loved the 310 and consider it to be one of the sexiest aeroplanes ever made.  My guess would be there are a lot of the production run still flying and cared for and that is not an accident.  You are the professional judge and your reaction suggests you really, really like the 310?

Thank you for taking us along with you (I guess Pete and the girls were at school, so you got to fly with about a thousand invisible passengers!)  There is something very reassuring about a pilot who can step out of one of my favourite airliners (the triple seven) and into one of my alternate favourite aeroplanes, having enjoyed both of them.

I watched your 400.00 Crepe video today. It was a nice reminder of the past, really injoyed it.
In 1986 when I was 28 I purched a 1956 310a with O470M's. 1200 hrs total time hangered all its life. Repainted 7 years earlier and not flown again. My father inlaw who had a 67 310 saw it for sale in Torrance CA. No one new plane was there. He called me and I Bought it that day for 10k. It was beautiful. Paint 10 out of 10. Interior ok, original leather.
At the time I had maybe 3 hours but had always loved flying. My dad flew F6F's. So I worked earnestly at getting my private license. The 310 needed about 20k to get her airworthy while I was learning to fly.
She was a a beautiful bird. Had so much fun. Thanks for the memory!

Thank you for letting me fly along with you today :)

Outstanding! Love flying with you, Juan. Thanks for taking us along. Feel free to leave more engine noise in future Harvey videos. Some of us love to hear those big Continentals singing their song in the background.
