The best looking DA62

Bankstown to Essendon or legitimately ML?

Perfect

Enjoyed your video very much 👍👍👍👏👏

cool

Did you need to carry a life raft/jackets?

what was your flight plan to Ballina, can you direct route from Richmond or do you stay outside controlled airspace?

the seating position does not look comfortable. is it?

G'day Steve, thanks for the great Aus content, not enough of it. Are you PPL or CPL?

Love the channel. Looking forward to more Videos soon hopefully

Sat on the tarmac 15 minutes using diesel and playing with instruments.

Watched a DA62 fly over me the other day out of YSBK. Beautiful craft in the air and reminds me of my flying days. Perhaps when the kids leave home I'll get back into it. In the meantime, some good vicarious living to be had through wonderful productions like yours! Many thanks and cheers from Sydney - David

No fuel challenges?

HI steve, I am also a flight instructor in the HUnter Valley region. Just want to know what App you use for your flight. Looks fancy

Hey Steve! Love the videos. What prompted the use of foreflight over ozrwys or avplan? Suspecting it has something to do with the Garmin interface??

i want to get my cpl to start a air taxi business too Im very inspiring by your videos and professionalism doing Aviation im doing a online ground school course now. in canada

Great flight.

great video Steve, thanks for sharing.

Thank you for posting this video and letting me fantasize a bit

Love your videos, but please cut the music. It destroys the entire experience.

Loving your content 😀 thank you

Awesome vid Steve! Hope you're well!

When you did the fuel calcs did you include headwind assumptions on way out and on way back to Coffs if you couldn't land. You had some pretty heavy headwonk/sidewing going to Launceston from memory.

I saw X42 in the hangar at BK, great looking machine. Thanks for sharing this voyage!

I have flown commercial several times, but have also done over 100 return trips via road since 1970, Perth to east coast (mostly to racing circuits) but would love to do the trip in a light aircraft, preferably overland for the scenery. Great video thanks. Am a bit surprised at how busy a pilot actually is.

Air taxi idea is good but not sure how reliable weather info is 15 days out.

Awesome video! I did my basic in a da40. Very nice aircraft.

That was a perfect simulation Steve, you even set up an incoming call and camera fail to demonstrate the high workload and distractions you can expect in these situations... 👌👌

I was up at Griffith about a month ago flying from MB, they have a all brand new club room upgrade there that looks great.

Great video Steve.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and planning process along the way. I enjoyed watching your journey. Cheers.

Hi Steve, Absolutely love your vision of the flight taxi service. I live in Sydney as a Sole Trader specialising in sales. I know a lot of people that would benefit from this service and would love to have a chat. Please feel free to reach out, cheers. Aaron

It may sound mad, but I quite enjoy flying in actual IFR.

If I was going to fly in that kind of WX, it'd be in a DA62. I'm working on whether the 42 or 62 will work better for my mission. I'm considering Angel flights, so there's a balance between ingress and safety for my particular mission. Any thoughts on those two?

what happens if you need a shit?

How did you find the DA 40 Steve have been thinking of going from an Archer2 to one how has your experience been??

First time viewer. Excellent video. Your a very competent pilot.

i have to fly my old musketeer from wedderburn to perth next holiday

I flew VFR into Canberra late last year and also had a bit of trouble spotting it (on a clear day!)... I think Canberra ATC know that and I can almost imagine them looking at each other knowingly when they ask if you have the field in sight ;-)

Enjoyed the ride thanks.

Love this idea, since discovering the DA62, I was thinking of doing the same. luxury air taxi type flying, all about convienience. keen to explore the possibilities.

A good tutorial on cockpit flow and procedure. Reminds me in the early 2000s flying a Seneca III in an east coast low from BK to PMQ, torrential rain from door to door with a 600' cloud base at PMQ. Just about to do a missed approach when the runway became visual. In those days I had a flight director, HSI, Garmin 450, radar and autopilot - no glass, and six levers to play with, eight including the cowl flaps. What a difference 25+ years make - the DA62 is a very similar aircraft to the Seneca III in both performance and capacity (though the Seneca's range sucks in comparison), but due to all the electronics and glass vastly easier to fly, and dare I say vastly safer. NO PAPER!!! 👏 (and no updates 👍)

Nice Job Captain , Glad Ya Didn"t Have too Ditch in Bass Straight 50 Mies out at Sea I Suppose You Feel More comfortable Flying over Land Do You ? At least you know you Could Land some where If someting wen"t Wrong Im supprised How Far you Fly above the Clouds , But I know nothing about Flying, I Would Be Hugging the Tree Tops just Incase LOL

They hide everything in Canberra especially where your tax dollar goes cheers.

Can happen and has happened to all of us Steve. Flown into Canberra many times, especially in the late 90's, If visual in marginal conditions I always looked for Lake Burley Griffin and I knew the AP was due east of that. What was hard in the past was my 3 year contract in the outback mainly night runs. Cheers mate keep up the good work.

Wow! Thank you for the ride along.

2 birds with one prop.

Hey it's still raining cheers.

It is a beautiful place to visit had 10 days there, looks like Neds beach is still full of fish cheers from Moruya.

Great work Steve. Beautiful machine, looks perfectly suited to your mission purpose. Love your methodical thinking and aways staying well ahead of the aircraft. Videos are top quality as well. In my experience it’s always harder than you think it’s going to be to capture quality video and audio in aircraft. Cheers, Mark (YMMB)
