Petit Jean is a fun airport to visit. It’s kinda abandoned now, but the runway is in good shape. In its prime, it was part of Win Rockefeller’s playground and there’s no telling who landed there. Presidents. The waterfall is fantastic. The stream has carved out a stadium-sized bowl that you can’t see until you’re right over it. From the ground, sometimes it’s just a trickle or not there at all and sometimes it’s a deafening monster. You can walk behind it. The path behind it looks scarier than it actually is. You can call the lodge and they’ll send a car to take you to the trailhead for the waterfall trail. It’s a nice lodge. Restaurant is not great, but there is one. My kids and I airplane-camped at Trigger Gap, up by Eureka Springs. That’s a fine grass strip for a 172. Bathroom shack and fine pavilion with a fireplace. Takeoff to the west is preferred. I’ve landed at Richland Creek, just west of Marshall, which is beautiful but might get sporty with kids and camping gear. The airstrip is right at a lovely fishin’ hole. Crystal clear. Even has a bathroom shack. Landing at Richland Creek in a 172 is no problem, but there are tall trees at either end and taking off requires the actual short field technique: Push the tail into the weeds, run as hard as you can and pop into the air quick and drive straight at the big scary trees aiming to just barely miss them. You could camp at Richland Creek by flying the kids out first, early in the morning, and dropping them off at Marshall, which is a great airport just a few miles east with a big fine runway and pilots’ lounge with snacks and drinks and cable TV and a 20-year-old courtesy Honda with ice cold AC, and then going back for the camping gear. In Arkansas, forget the $100 hamburger. Go to the Grider Field Cafe at Pine Bluff. Mississippi delta soul food. I can’t tell you how good it is. All of the food is exquisite, but I think Tuesday is chicken and dumplins day and those folk make the best you’ll ever have and that’s an end of it. The best. Get yams. Go back for more. Thaden Field up in Rogers is worth flying to. You’ve got to talk to Razorback Approach, but they’re good folks. The “field house” has a decent restaurant overlooking the runway. The last hangar belongs to one of the Walton panda cubs, and he’s got a Mustang, a Griffon-engine Spitfire, and the last of the Super Corsairs - Race 57 - in there. Go bother him if you get a chance to. And don’t forget to visit my home field, KBDQ. It is abandoned and overgrown with weeds in my version of MSFS, which is hilarious. Aircon works in the pilot’s lounge and I’ve made a good bookshelf there for a lending library. I’ve got the good stuff. The Sant-Exupery stuff. Take a book and bring it back when you’re done. Good excuse to fly back.

Another fine tutorial from you sir. I felt like I was In the right seat, watching your expert guidance on the Proline 21. There were some particulars about that flight, and limitations from MSFS ,yet you aced it. Procedure turns, along with course reversals, those are above my pay grade, yet , it’s all a must learn for me. I’m grateful for your work here on your channel. ! It was a blast to watch and learn !

I have flown your tutorial at least 20 times, have my pro line 21 management skills at a much higher level thanks to you. ! I tried to take your instruction, and apply it to another airport pairing, KLAS-KBURi in the CJ4, this requires threading through a mountain valley , while descending to BUR. (Very cool in VR). The only thing I messed up is the turn to final, it looked like a nasty 150 degree turn on the nav display. This was on the ILS Y For Rwy 8, the turn was leading to SILEX . I would really like to see you do this for one of your fine tutorials on your channel KLAS-KBUR , ILS Y rwy 8 . Your other subscribers will dig this too! Dan, your greatest fan.

I just cant seem to extend the centerline at Loreta properly, all I ever get is a curved FMC line, (magenta) . Not the straight extended center line that you showed . After the ILS transition on the display, my green needles are never straight up and down like yours , any advice? Approach is horrendous! Any advice? Besides not becoming a real world pilot?

I should be exercising those formulas more , I’m to dependent on VNAV itself. My best guess.

Flown this excellent tutorial 5 times, and I’m still not descending to the 5000’ WAYMAR , fast enough. Any more advice on VNAV? I find myself using VS, then re-engaging VNAV, to meet the 5000’ waymar , is that somewhat realistic?

This is a much better base aircraft than some of the crappy payware out there.

When you landed here, it appeared the nose was pointing down, about the last 100 feet, before hitting the asphalt. Sort of a “flat “ landing. Not a lot of flare , when landing a citation?

Great video series. , not much out there on CJ4 avionics. Very informative, and professional. The CJ4 in MSFS is way underrated!

That was a very kind review of a plane that would get bad reviews even if it was freeware. At the price asked it is just having a laugh. 😃

Nice I didn’t know you could put the VOR ID instead of the freq. I was doing let’s say Little Rock putting in 113.9 type the short cut of 139 works really well too.

Very well done. Thank you. I enjoy flying this plane! I use it in my FS Economy in my business. I do have my PL. Single Engine Land with IR.

Very nice. One of my favorites to fly

Thanks for the review! I did see that they updated the plane last week, unfortunately they don't update the changelog in the store but do you know if there is any changes since the last video worth mentioning?

So lucidly explained! ♥

FFX is making this plane too and will be a lot better than this one!

Both videos are just Fantastic! can you please create a tutorial for VNAV and RNAV appr. Also show how to enter a new destination airport mid air if need to divert

This is awesome! great for beginners.... Thank you so much!!

Hi there and thank you for your instructional video's.

The throttles don't even move for me
