    His YouTube channel is Mike Patey. Shows all the work he has done on the plane plus the new plane he plans to build.

    Including the crash that totaled it earlier this year. Of course, Patey being who he is, it's back at Best Tugs being rebuilt. The backstory of Draco is interesting.

    This poor-man plane could create havoc inside the hanger. Stop the engine and use a jokey wheel/ tug to tow the plane in and out of the hanger.
