    Great videos. I was just up at Mackinac Island. We made the hop to St Ignace to fuel up before heading back to Chicago.

    I feel like you're both cheating, wearing shoes. 1:25 lul, so the way you brace your hand, is how I did it during training with an RV12iS that had the G3x panel. The problem was that just above the G3x was the ELT button. Discovered that after landing when the flight school owner met us on the ground. heh. just had to share. 3:35 bridge is so cool. 15:40 "the FUCK is this?" .. we'd get along well.

      I would highly recommend getting a CFI and practicing, in the CT, you start with the stick back, but as soon as the nose pops off you need to release backpressure or you will have a tailstrike. It happens real fast.
