I'm a Mooney Pilot that travels for fun. Come along for the adventure and challenges, as I try to visit all the airports within Iowa. Owning a Mooney M20-C has it's perks. We can fly fast and have a low fuel burn. Hope to see Y'all over the friendly Skies of Iowa!
Returning home with "Miss Iowa Teen USA" from Mason City. What a blessing to listen to her story!

Explaining the Annual to a beauty queen! Interesting...
Curious as to what determines a candidate for miss iowa teen and what takes the win? Are there categories? Also curious how you ended up flying her somewhere since it seems you dont really know her but thats personal info and not really my business just my curiosity lol.
@gtm624 anyone can enter the miss Iowa teen pageant. Winning is based on judging in several categories. I believe 50 percent of the score is based on an interview. The other criteria is stage presentation, evening wear, and active wear. And your right....I did not know her prior to this flight. I had only met her once. She was the niece to someone I knew. I thought it would be a great way to see what pageant work is about, give her some exposure and entertain viewers. This video was the 3rd video with her. You can watch the other 2 and it will probably answer some questions. I will have other people jump in the plane and see what their lives are like. I will have Jeremy "Lil Heathen" Stephen's in the plane, hopefully this summer. We will talk about his UFC career, Life and Family. Thanks for watching.
The content ended 13 min. before the end of the video, is that a new editing technique?
That's weird! Thanks for pointing that out. I'll get that fixed.
Seems like Maddie is 'funner' than you 😂😂 jk. Thx for the video.
@mrsaskriders she is pretty funner! Glad I had the opportunity to fly her around and share her story of being a beauty pageant winner. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing your flight to Spirit lake. I've considered flying out there myself I may just do it soon.
Oracle Aviation is a great airport. You will have to fly into Okoboji/Spirit Lake.
@georgetown8986 do it all the time. Check out my channel. Thanks for watching!
You owe a Mooney pilot??? I owe everybody.
Being a nervous flyer is awful…I know. I feel for your sweet wife.
She is much better now. We have been on a ton of flights together and she is getting more comfortable. In fact, she encourages a flight when we travel any distance. She is a trooper for sure. Thanks for watching!
Nice flight. Love the Doobie Brother's
Great interview. Thank you for taking us along on your trip.
What a delightful young lady, with a really cool personality..................someone is going to be a very lucky guy.
Great video on the pump, only thing I wish you would have done is the logbook entry just to go over it because remember changing a vacuum pump is not preventive maintenance so it would have been great to see the logbook entry other than that good video
Logbook entry was made by my AP/IA. He was the one who was in charge of inspection and install. But, you're right. Going over the rules and regulations of aircraft maintenance would be a good video. Thanks for watching!
DD looked absolutely miserable all the way from liftoff to touchdown. You should have been a bit more patient at the end. Flying isn't for everyone. Hopefully, she'll come to enjoy flying as well. My best friend's dad owned a Moony Mark 4 (I think it was called) when I was a teenager back in the 60's. He was a navy pilot in WWII and he flew that thing like a fighter pilot. I have loved flying ever since.
Looks like it’s gonna be a great channel. Can’t wait to see more content however, I really feel bad for your wife. I was feeling so bad for her so hopefully you’ll be nice to her so she doesn’t get sick. May you always have blue skies!
Love Shirleys for a long time. KMLE is a great airport. I remember when it was a farm 🥸
Leave her at home
wow terrific video thanks for sharing this video and good luck
thanks for sharing this fantastic video God Bless you
That diner is amazing!
Saw a video of him landing on Saylorville. Very cool. Smooth landing too.
I hope to fly with him this summer and put our trip on video. He has some cool planes!
It's from Peewee Herman! :D
Yes! I hate to admit I watched that show. Lol
Great trip. Look forward to the upcoming interviews. Good luck with the continued IFR training.
Thanks. I will hit you up for a flight this summer.
You only have 433 Subs! Why? I love this stuff. Would love to fly on a small plane like this. I'm a new sub. Great video.
Algorithms. I'll keep making videos. Glad you enjoyed the video. I also love flying! New video out tomorrow. Thanks for watching!
@IAMooneyman Your ever in Colorado hit me up lol
I love to fly so excited to watch u guys 😄
Thank you! It has always been a dream to have the privilege, to fly an airplane. I'm grateful that the Lord blessed me in a way to achieve my dreams. Miss Dee Dee is my favorite passenger. She is the one that will bring me up into Heaven. Thanks for watching!
Very nice of him 🙂
Just bloody open the door!! 😅
Lol! But he was hanging out by the window. He came in through the window, and he knew it was the way out. Hahaha
Doors on the other side too isn’t it?
Well isnt money root of all evil? Some things more important than money.
Stay home
What a great air couple! Very fun for us watching. I think she was kind of enjoying it after a while. You guys are great.
Thanks. I have a ton of fun, taking her up. She is getting more comfortable being in the air. As a husband, I live to bring adventure to our family. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!
I live in Millard and go plane spotting at Millard. Hope to see you sometime!
They have a nice airport. I've been there 3 times already. Omaha ATC is easy to deal with and is always accommodating. If you have restaurant recommendations, I'd love to hear them! Thanks for watching!
Let me know when you come up to Idaho!! I need flying and Mooney advice.
Love your stuff!! When it is you and your wife I just see me and mine!!! Keep it up!! Good luck on your calling and all you do!!
Thank you. I love flying with her because she is a nervous flyer. Tormenting the wife brings me joy. Lol. I love my calling and hope to stay in it for a while. Thanks for the comment, and thanks for watching!
Good song choice
Another great flight. thank you for taking us with.
Was going to ask about if they were LDS? You answered my question when you mentioned a stake.
Glad to see you are back and ok! It’s great to fly to a stake meeting!
Hey man its Nick from QT. Made it safe to Arizona, finally found your channel. Cool stuff man!
Hey Nick! Glad you made it back to Arizona. QT is not the same, without you. I will eventually make it down your way. I told you, I want to see the Grand Canyon. Hope your settling in and getting that car back to tip top shape. Take care and thanks for watching.
Glad to have you back. Thank you for taking us along on the adventure to the business meeting.
Happy to be flying again. love your content! There are sooo many unique aircraft flying through the skies. Hope to jump into a military plane someday.
A Nebraska tumbleweed, the foam cup.
probably flew in from Kansas. LOL
Thanks for the video, Chris! Since I passed my written last month, I soloed in 59F and done all my night flights including the night cross country. Have my stage 1 check on Monday with Glenn, then getting ready for my big XC, then polishing up some maneuvers then my check ride. So hopefully I'll have my PPL in a month or so. I plan on starting my instrument rating work this fall/winter.
You are moving right along. Big XC is a fun trip. I did mine with some night flight. Knocked out some night landings and visited KALO. Have a great time and tell Glenn I said hi.
Thanks for the adventure, Chris! Hopefully, you are faster at knocking out your instrument rating than me. 😁
We will see. I'm doing the ground school online through Sporty's. I will start with the CFI soon. It might be a week or 2, as I was blasted by a semi on Friday coming home from work. My poor car took a massive hit and will have to be replaced. I'm a bit sore. We don't bounce back like we use to. Probably use the time to do some more ground school.
What?!?! You’re about bouncing back. Getting old isn’t for the week.
Great adventure. Thanks for taking us along.
I felt the same way the other day when I flew into the Class C. LOL
Cool
I have heard the food there is amazing.
It is really good. They will fill you up! Weight and balance changes when you fly back home. Lol. Fajitas are amazing.
Come on baby light the Fire 🔥 Great song!! ❤😊
Love the short take offs in cold weather. Have a blessed day.
I saw you last Wednesday around 2240Z, you were taxiing past me as I was just cranking up N44526. Great looking Mooney! My training is progressing well. Went up last night did some ground reference maneuvers and five touch and go's, great approaches. Probably going to solo tomorrow afternoon. Great video as always!!
Next time I cruise by, honk. Lol. Going solo is one of the first milestones of Aviation. Wear a very used shirt that day. Your instructor will tear that shirt up! Congrats on going solo. Keep up the grind. Thanks for watching.
It was great to meet Melvin. I see you and Melvin in there and I don't feel like you have less shoulder space than my wife and I in a 172. My wife flew us to Mason City last night to the Mexican restaurant but she didn't notice the winter hours that they closed at 3PM. We had to go down the road to get some food.
I've heard Mooney's were tight. But, I don't think it is tight at all. I've had 3 large guys(over 200) in there before and had no problem. Love Avion Azul in Mason City. Sorry that you had to go elsewhere to eat. I wish there were more restaurants, on airfields, in Iowa. If you are looking for a good Steak. Jones Angus, in Prairie Du Chien, is awesome. It's right across the street. We are planning on a trip to Blue haven Cafe in Quincy, IL. I will share that trip in the future. Thanks for watching
@@IAMooneymanmy wife and her friend went to that steakhouse in November. She said it was good. We went to Quincy in October I think. The building is round since it is the base of the tower. There was a small airline called Southern Airways with a cessna turbo prop there picking up passengers. And some mig fighter jets. Real small town diner feel. Felt like home mingling with the locals. We want to go find more places like that.
Thanks for taking us to KIKV. I went flying yesterday morning in N41619 around 11am, just doing some pattern work and touch and go's. Executed two really good approaches. The first approach was really good but a gust of wind screwed me up about 50 feet off the ground so I executed a go around. Winds were around 340@14 gusting to 21. The second approach was also good, but my landing was fair. Going to take the written in the morning at West DSM and flying in the late afternoon. So say a quick prayer for me around 9am tomorrow, if you can. Keep the videos coming!! Highly motivating.
Good luck tomorrow! I will pray for you. Keep your confidence high. Hard work pays off! Thanks for watching!
