C42 - "Mourne Coast Run" with JackieK. Kernan Aviation 30-7-24
Cockpit audio via GoPro. My friend Jackie has patiently waited her turn for a flight and finally I got her up with me! A spin round the County Down coastline from Newcastle to Cranfield, then up Carlingford Lough and home to Kernan. A lovely night for flying, just a few bumpy bits near the Mournes themselves. Thanks for watching as always! #generalaviation #microlight #c42

C42 - Flight to the Mourne Mountains with Allison. Kernan Aviation 29-6-24

Cockpit audio via GoPro. My wife Allison has flown with me a few times now but the weather had never been good enough for the Mournes. It's not 100% today, but good enough to go round the coast at least hopefully, according to the forecasts... so off we went! Thanks for watching as always. #microlight #c42 #generalaviation

@stephenmcveigh54 sent me another message asking if I'd like to join him as passenger. Oh aye! In the air it was a lovely calm evening and we knew we had the fuel to overfly Causeway Airfield and home again. A few low passes thrown in as well. The footage is mainly from my "scenic camera" GoPro, with a few stills and iPhone videos chucked in. As always, thank you Stevie! #microlight #generalavi...

Nice to watch, makes me want to get my licence current again!
@@linspuk Thanks, we are lucky to have such lovely scenery close to us. Go for it!
Beautiful run! How amazing it would be to have a PPL!
@@OldGloryTreeCo Thanks! Yeah, learning to fly is one of the best things I’ve ever done! 👍
Great video Craig. 10 /10 for the landing. Chris
Thought you might like that one mate 😀 Good to see you yesterday 👍
Great landing
Hi Craig, thanks for taking the time to upload your videos; I’ve learnt a lot from them. I’ve been in circuits for 4 hours now - all coming together bar the last 10 seconds 😂. Will hopefully crack the round out and flair someday soon!
No worries, I started doing it because I was watching other pilots videos and getting the same help from those. Then when I was watching my own videos back I found them helpful to see what I’d done in real time, like a debrief tool. Give me a shout if you see me at Kernan some day 😀
@@CraigC42 will do! I’m thinking of recording some circuits myself to see if it helps me nail the last 10 seconds. I might recognise you if I see you from the back 😝
You don’t need fancy kit, my main cockpit GoPro is a reconditioned Hero 3 at £70. The audio cable is getting harder to get but it’s not megabucks either, it’s much easier to ‘debrief’ with the audio of what you were told vs what you actually did some times 😂 It’d be good to get a few more folks doing it at Kernan 👍
@@CraigC42 cool, thanks for the tip! I can imagine what the audio will be - Jackie saying ‘hold it off, hold it off’ and me not holding it off 🤦🏻♂️😆
Bet your glad you got that hour in now!
No kidding. The weather is just atrocious lately 🤷🏼♂️😀
Did you have a telly
No, it’s short haul so there’s no entertainment system in the seatbacks.
Epic! I can’t wait to book my intro flight
Nice one. Go for it, it’s unforgettable! 👏👍
Many thanks - the Rotax sounds very sweet. Is it 80 or 100 hp?
It’s a 100hp. Don’t expect my videos to be as good as Stevie’s flying is 😀 Cheers!
Nice to me you
It feels like Canada here
Didn’t get to do this. Great view ❤
Great way to spend a Saturday morning, thoroughly enjoyed myself. Scotland next?
😂 We’ll see. Great morning and I had a ball too. That’s what it’s all about 👏👍
Thanks for a very enjoyable flight. :-}
I enjoyed it too, and the spin afterwards in WM 👏👍
Nice 1 Craig, turns out I could have went with you. Next time.
Aye, go for a spin some time surely 😀👍
Excellent video . Good call on the go around . A very busy circuit.
Thanks Stevie, I appreciated you holding to let me in for my second attempt at it 👍👏
That had a bit of everything! Busy circuit and pre flight with heli. I'm sure it was a challenge with the low sun and judging height. Good job on the go around.
Aye, just didn’t get it into the hollow and I knew pretty early it was liable to be a go-around if I didn’t get a sink over the hedge. Not wanting to bury it or slip that low, so off and try again. Don’tcha just love those trees lol
@@CraigC42 early call was a good 1 in XL
@@Theflyingtriangleno 3 wheels down by the clubhouse, which wasn’t looking likely…. time to take the hint 😂
great job..
Fantastic flight thank you . Epic views of the mournes silent valley and your favourite spelga dam 😂
Absolute brain melt the second I hit the transmit button 🤦♂️🤣
The dream team
Magnificent, thanks ! 🙂
Good Job Craig
i hope i become a pilot like u men enjoy ur life
I enjoy your videos.. but why not upload in HD?
Of all the places you could land, you had to go and land in the muddy grass 😂😂😂 That water does not make it easy. Hard to judge your height above that smooth surface.
That combined with the crosswind made it an ‘interesting’ short final. Not one to just sit, monitor and admire a nice smooth decent 👀😀
At least you had a sympathetic passenger LOL The water levels are considerably lower than my flight 2 days before. Wonder what the lowfield looks like under all that water.
The float plane from Vancouver might be the only kinda yoke getting into it any time soon 😀
Careful what you wish for. We might get an invasion from the guys at Causeway 🤣🤣🤣
🤠👍
So how does the pilot communicate with his pax in the unlikely event of an emergency? If they are not provided with headsets…
If you hear the intercom playing the commentary, it’s not deafeningly loud to be easily heard. In the event of an emergency I’d be happy that he could quite easily be heard with a raised voice. I also don’t imagine every passenger on other ‘commuter’ and touring helicopters etc would be provided headsets either. Edit: I would also assume he has the ability to flip from pre-recorded commentary to an internal speaker if required.
Apologies for the pixelation on the short clip at the start before the cockpit view kicks in, I’m still learning! 😐👍
Nice one Craig. Lovely crosswind. Had to work at it myself earlier.
Cheers. Yeah, just glad to get up again with the weather more miss than hit. 👀😀
Well done Craig, looked like a very enjoyable flight
@@TheflyingtriangleCheers, it was nice getting to fly and finding Marshall’s home place was lovely to do. I’ve not been down that way much, Tynan is a nice wee place to fly over. Speak to you soon hopefully 😀👍
Great flight Craig, Enjoyed the chats with Bobby as well.
Yeah, I enjoyed it myself so I left it all in. At least anyone listening will know that if they ever want to hide from me, Cranfield is the place to be 🤷🏼♂️😀
Well done Chris, for keeping Craig right on those landings.
Chris is a pro on the radio, could have been doing with his composure last weekend for the RTF exam! Great flying in bumpy conditions.
Radio exam, eek. Yeah, was bumpy enough. Chris was great on the radio, a natural 👏
Good stuff
Bounced like a 747 pilot😂😂😂😂
Definitely not a Cargolux one or we’d have been putting it back together again outside the clubhouse 😀
@@CraigC42 🤣
A 737 type final 🤔 😉
Same 14 circuit pattern outlined by my instructor from my dual nav in qualifying. 👍
Fair enough. I go to idle revs as I turn base and try to make the field without adding power - doesn't always work 😅
@@kkiwi54 The GoPro would ‘fail’ just before I’d attempt that 😀
Cool
Like that sigh at the end 😂 Well done Craig. What's next?
Paying for it 👀😂
@@CraigC42 🤣🤣🤣
Enjoyed that Craig. Handled the 35 with tail wind well. I'm disappointed you didn't share a pic of your Greek lunch though!
Haha, after 2 goes at editing this video and making a mess of both I decided to keep it simple before my laptop turned into a frisbee for the 3rd time 😂
What equipment do you use to be able to add the radio sound with gopro? I just bought a few Gopro 360 max... I'm out Sunday from Kernan, I'll be videoing the full flight..
Hi Gareth, I don’t think this is going to be any use to you but I just have a wee Hero 3 refurb from eBay which I knew would work with this cable I bought from Amazon: flitecordr (5 feet) - Aircraft Cockpit Audio ATC Intercom Recording Cable for GoPro Hero 3, Hero 3+, Hero 4 and Smartphones Thing is, that is not available any more. If you search for similar cockpit audio recording cables and check what cameras are compatible. Or ask a question on this sub forum forums.flyer.co.uk/viewforum.php?f=28&sid=8788a3a0237621a09ea452956d2c0574 If you see me at Kernan any day, say hello and I’ll get a chat with you 👍 Fred or Jaime - you any idea on your setup that could help?
will try and see if I can find a link for the cable I am using. Your headset plugs into it and the cable into your radio output jack. Then have an audio output you can plug into your mobile for recording
Posted a link to the cable twice. Keeps on being removed...
@@lifesajourneyclub it wouldn't be google/youtube if it was easy
Nice one - 😊 three great landings 👍👏👏👏👏
Thanks! I hadn’t been down to low field since my GST so thought a bit of practice would do no harm 😀
A cracker video and an even better landing a greaser 👍😎👏👏👏👏
Another great video Craig . Thank you for a fab flight and a nice wee breakfast @ Newtownards Airfield . 😎
You kept me right, as anyone watching it knows 😀👍
Well done Craig. Enjoyed that. Nice to have that bit of experience in the right seat.
Well done Craig. Beautiful up there.
Good man Craig, uploaded my 1st video on Sunday. Interesting flight!
Happy days. Heading out for a while tonight but I’ve subscribed and I’ll get a better full look after 👏👍
Eleanor has a better understanding of the local Area from the air than I do!! Fair play to her she seemed to really enjoy that.
Certainly not a day for sightseeing. But good to see you up flying on a "less-than-perfect" day.
It was ok for seeing towns but no view of the Mournes etc as you know. I changed the route with the low cloudbase to avoid the high ground between Armagh > Markethill > Newry. That’s the experience/knowledge of the local terrain kicking in, it wouldn’t have been a good idea.
m.ua-cam.com/video/GbxsnmsTzRI/v-deo.html interesting flight yesterday!
Great job Craig. Was a lovely day for taking passengers.
Cheers. Finally got one, the weather did everyone’s head in 🤷🏼♂️😂
Nice one. Great landing
Thanks for the video, I really appreciate it 👍
10/10 Greaser landing
If I could it every time it might be nice 😂😂
