That's a great idea, Jon. I hope it works out 👍🏻
Your article on flying to France really helped me thanks
My flying club has increased its cost by 25% which is eye-watering. Its cost what puts people off
I did a Boeing Stearman flight out of Earls Colne on Friday, piloted by Nigel who was in this video!
12:10 hey cool, my plane!
would love to help fly people. I wish there was a system to give people fun flights when I'm going up anyhow.
Hi Jon. This is a fantastic idea I’ve been trying this for quit some time. I’ve flown with many interesting people. Just last week a local taxi company asked if I would participate in flying people for a local charity. I immediately contacted my local club there were quit a few pilots offered there services. Let’s all give this a push to encourage people into the wonderful enjoyment of flight. Steve
Textbook landing Jon. Good to see you enjoying your flying still !!
Takes me back! I used to fly helis from Redhill Hanger 1 just to the right of the 18 threshold. I always used to enjoy flying with other people and I hope your idea works out.
I’m all in 😝 Live in Redhill and go to Galway … great place to fly too
Great idea, Jon. I often fly solo in a four seat aircraft, it’s a waste really! I’m sure you’ll get tons of interested folks.
I was all set to start my PPL, and then COVID hit and threw a wrench in those plans. I would love to get that spark back and fly again before I sign up for lessons. Thank you for offering this, I'll keep an eye on that newsletter!
What a super idea Jon. Love watching your videos and have heard you flying around from my big orange aeroplane! Really appreciate the effort to encourage new pilots to join us in this wonderful adventure.
Many are and will benefit more from taking that seat, but let me know if you ever want a copilot for a jaunt in IV!
What a great idea. I also regularly have a spare seat in my Gyro 😊
A great initiative Jon.
Great idea Jon. I’m really close to taking the plunge but there always seems to be something else that my money needs directing to. Would love to take you up on that opportunity sometime if you’d allow me. Will sign up to your newsletter.
Very nice flight. I have flown 11 hours a very long time ago with a view to obtaining my PPLH. I would love to join you, or even have a cup of tea with you at Redhill…
I'll come anywhere anytime

Fantastic idea, wish I’d come across this earlier…rather than in my 60s😂
Very kind of you mate, But I am afraid I cannot make it. My Frien Trevor Coult MC lives in Suffolk he may like it.
Nice idea, hope it works out, the first hurdle for many would be pilots.
Fixed wing microlights can be one, more cost effective, route in, hopefully training should soon be seamless too, Eg towards GA and above types/ratings (especially if learning on 600kg 'light sports' types now).
Speaking of diversity, dont forget; the wounded, injured, sick and disabled (as appropriate, as severally disabled would need special adaptions, however a lot of disabilities are hidden and thus ignored or forgotten), also perhaps those who are nuero-diverse too. Many of those categories could be on low incomes too.
My father had his boss to thank for learning to fly, paid for 75% of his training, so he and his friends were always keen to take others up, thus not forgetting their roots.
And in the last year I’ve worked with groups representing those people too. I have a film in the can about a charity supporting injured ex service people, raised £8500 for the Aerobility charity dedicating multiple episodes to them and made a 20 minute episode about neurodiversity in aviation. These spare seat flights may not be suitable for some people in these groups. But these people are not forgotten.
Great idea Jon, I would love to get nppl probably not ppl. I get very nauseous, can fly holidays. With patch on from doctors fine now.
Went o Scotland in 2022 booked a wingly flight probably had patch on too long after the BA flight up there, then had a stupid Chinese evening before flight.!! So we had to turn back after sickness.would love to try again with no Chinese in my stomach
You’re selling it to me Mark!
@@TheFlyingReporter trying, in bAg not aeroplane .don't worry. 2nd try would be advantageous Jon
Can you come over to Bergerac Airport ?
First!
7:44 i need to grow up
Great idea. Let's try and introduce yet more identity politics into flying. Just what is needed.
Eh what?!

Since you only opened your UA-cam profile today, and then immediately commented on this video, I find it hard to believe you were ever subscribed under this username in the first place.
I suspect you have simply set up a youtube profile to troll me, or have used a fake profile to hide your real identity - I wonder why? What is it about being welcoming to BME & LGBT people, people on low incomes or women that you find so offensive? Are you racist, homophobic, hate the poor, are a misogynist, or do all of the above apply to you?
