Your videos are wonderful too. Keep doing what you are doing. Like Nikko, you are helping us all to be safe and better pilots. If people are not subscribing to your videos, they are missing out.
Nikko, I know you are not a flight instructor, so on, and so forth, but I learn so much about flying watching your videos. I've been flying since I was 13 years old, and I turn 70 tomorrow (September 5). One thing I have learned from all those decades of flying, is that if you think you have it figured out, and know it all, you need to stop flying. There is always something new, and you talk about the experience of flying. That is where real learning happens. Thank you, for helping to keep us all safe.
@@NikosWings Thanks, my license was signed off by a guy named Delbert Koerner, whose flight review for his license was done by Orville Wright. Lord, reading that makes me feel like an antique. He taught me two great lessons that have saved my life: 1. it's ok to do a 180 and exit, and 2. There are bold pilots and old pilots but no bold, old pilots. With thousands of hours, those lessons have served me well.
No way!!! That’s incredible! I had an amazing instructor during my multi engine who taught me the same and also told me “if you can’t fly there, drive. And you can always buy an airline ticket”
@@NikosWings way, "Delbert Koerner" google it sometime. He got his pilot's license in 1915 or so. He once told me, "You want an airplane to climb pull back the stick. Pull it back more, and it will go down." I had to take my first 10 hours in a Cub so I knew what the rudder is for. He hated tricycle landing gear. As part of my private, I had to roll and loop a Stearman. He told me the time to figure out how to get an airplane right side up is not when you are upside down. He saved my life. In a Bonanza in 1975 or so, a Santa Ana wind was blowing in Los Angeles. Mother Nature decided I should be upside down in the Cahuenga Pass. If it was not for Delbert, I would be dead
As a somewhat experienced pilot myself, I applaud all of his videos. He shows the true excitement and fun of aviation that we all hope to see on our adventures. Keep it up man!
Another great video Niko. That tailwind on your flight home was fortuitous, both for speed and fuel consumption. Your flight videos are very professional, as well as enjoyable. Always enjoy being your UA-cam copilot.
Another excellent video, Niko. This armchair pilot never gets used to the bad weather which small aeroplanes can take in their stride depending up the avionics and systems fit. Impressive set of landing lights too! Cheers!
Great video Niko! Your editing skills are growing better and better! Really enjoyed your mixing of the physical environment with the spectacular scenery overflown. Looks like your IFR training really paid off on that Dallas departure. Always a pleasure watching your videos - you bring the layman into the cockpit and don't go "techie" on us - appreciate it.
Another fantastic flight. Icing, IMC, FL230, night, oxygen, beautiful scenery, night-lit cockpit, good camera positions, the lot. Great flight, thanks for the super-enjoyable video...
One of the best Niko! Your coast to coast series was great. I hope to do that in a Cirrus someday. You are getting so much great experience flying in all these conditions and places. Thanks for sharing with us desk flyers! 😀😊👍🏼
Just getting ready for bed and this pops up on the notifications. No better way to end an evening. Amazing video, stay safe and keep up the great work!
Incredible flights with you always in that small single prop plane of yours....Amazes me everytime I watch.... Excellent views included...Thanks Niko for ride along again 👍🏼
Somehow you always manage to feature epic flights be it the Hudson VFR flyway or the Hoover Dam/Grand Canyon views...never a dull moment, including running low on Ox! At 71 I have had an Ox mask on my face but it was at ground level in the ER, not 23,000 ft! I remain nothing but envious and encourage you on...!
Wow Niko, this pair of vids were awesome! Thanks so much for sharing this, some footage I've never seen in person... being stuck in Oklahoma during covid is no fun.... Take care and stay safe! Cheers
Thanks for the share Niko always nice to follow along things are much more captivating in the air looking down let's you see the whole picture those white lines go by pretty fast on landing and taking off pretty cool
I can only say that I am so envious!! your are very fortunate to get to buzz around in one of the best single engine planes. Heart problems took my medical.
Niko your a "great pilot".. watching you keeps my ATC clearances and communications sharp.Being a pilot and flying is such a great exclusivity not just every one does it.It sounded like ATC made up a bunch of B.S. about a mechanical.That entire scenario was bizarre but you handled it very very professionally you were level headed and kept your cool and canceled your IFR switched to VFR that was a great solution to that entire craziness.
Spectacular video vlog Niko! Loved the moon shot at 9:35! And thank you for that beautiful view of Addison ADS! That’s my old stomping grounds and ADS is where I finished up my Private Pilot Certificate many decades ago! And yes, it does get cold in Texas. So I moved to Corpus Christi KCRP, which is just about as far South as one can go. Palm tree and warm sunny beaches for me when I’m not flying!
Hi, Niko. The Grand Canyon is better when seen from Niko's Wings! Great views. The interior lighting of your plane is beautiful. Crystal clear back home at night. Beautiful! Thanks for sharing! Stay healthy!
Nice one Niko!! Impressive speeds with that tailwind at altitude. Just flew the 182 up to WI and to Mackinac Island and back to TX for a fall getaway. Totally worth it, beautiful colors but the winds all the way up and back were just brutal man! Never got a tail wind. Nothing but quartering head winds entire trip.
Awesome video. My first view of the Grand Canyon and Hover Damn was in the back seat of an F4 Phantom. No matter what aircraft you are in they are both memorable. Congratz on your long journey.
@@NikosWings I spent 10 years in the Air Force and won numerous citations for Airman and N O. The rides were incentives. I have been in the F4, F15, F16, AC13 and trained as a C141 flight engineer. What better branch if the service to work for when your head is in the clouds! I excelled because I love it and I love aircraft.
Niko, when you were on approach to KDAL and flew past KADS, you flew right over my house! If I had known, I would have gone outside and waved (last November) :)
Hi Niko I just started watching your vids for inspiration, I am just starting to learn to fly here in Australia and I am 65 yrs old, what a huge buzz it is, keep those vids coming please, regards John W
I like when they cleared you DOWN to 17,000'; I have to struggle to get UP to 15,000' in my Varieze :-) LOVED the Hoover Dam, Albuquerque, and Grand Canyon. Bravo! Best I have done is San Diego to Northern Montana, so Coast to Coast is epic.
I'm living vicariously though Niko's adventures. Was a pilot for 6 mos back in the '90s. Haven't been back to in since. I appreciate seeing someone livin' the dream.
@@NikosWings Yeah, in my 20s I wanted to be doing exactly what you are, running my business and flying around the country. Reality had a different hand for me. The money is still a work in progress. Even my son says I should get back into it. In the meantime, it's great to watch you enjoying the life. Just keep doing the channel! It's awesome! :)
Love your videos Niko, I'm about to get my PPL and your videos have honestly been very helpful to see how you react to constantly changing situations and it makes me more comfortable to see how you speak to ATC. Keep up the great content!
Takes lots of practice, focus and multi tasking. Ppl is the easy one. The instrument is tough snd you must put social media aside and buckle in to excel at it. Commercial is just advanced ppl, CFI, or ATP are extremely tough.. I,like many, was training at a flight school to go to the regionals, and now that the future is done for in terms of aviation job-wise as a career for at least t years, I hace shifted things and am looking into my own business in IT, it is the future. Being a professional pilot "was" the future until this covid nonsense hit. Recruiters at SkyWest/Comair and Envoy suggested I look for a different career with the huge layoffs. And even more pilots furloughed coming in Oct. A family friend took early retirement at age 56 last month after 27 yrs flying with United.. He was a senior Capt in the company, typed in every Boeing and a few A-buses. He said in 1995 they had 11,400 pilots, the most they'd ever had, it is now down to 4800 and will be under 3800 by mid Oct. It is sad that globalists and elites, big tech want to start their new world order, socialist take over. I was hoping it would not happen for at least 10 more yrs minimum, but the elite and the U.N. and the WHO have their agenda to follow.
@MasterCarguy44 maybe the airlines will suffer but rest assured private corporate flying will flourish. Also, what in the world is wrong with you? The kind of crazy talk about new world order, socialists and green eggs and ham is the propaganda spread by the white house and Fox News. Please get back to planet earth and think logically and let logic prevail instead of crazy talk.
@@NikosWings I dispise politics, it is the evil within. I hate to say it but Fox has been more honest and factual about the news than CNN/Communist News Network or MSN. Fox has their share of biased news yes, but I have also been visiting a lot of cities and it is VERY clear, unless your a blind idiot to reality (I am not into politics or CNN, MSN, ABC they're all in on it) that the democrats want to go along with the economic destruction plan of the world and nation by leftist scum. Fyi: Agenda 21 was agreed on by 178 nations in the UN in 1992. The dems are a total FAIL, with rioting, destroying property, beating and killing people, failing to admit they have a problem or just ignoring it. Its all in Democrst cities, 98%. People can lie about the facts but they cant hide the facts. As a spoiled wealthy democrat, you should go visit some of the dem cities and see it for yourself. Understand too that Antifa is all Dems and BLM was,7500/hijacked by white fascists with known and unknown terrorists working with them. Fact: BLM started with a good valid message, but has been long gone this last 14 months. Do not donate to them unless you want your name put on a terrorist watch list. I also hope you do not have kids otherwise you should be ashamed of yoursrlf and not be a father to support the lawlessness of the left. The left leaning networks ignore the innocent children getting murdered every day, and they lie about covid. Fox, C-SPAN and BlazeTV cover much more reality. Gov Cuomo of NY literally pulled his own elderly parents out of nursing homes then committed premeditated murder of thousands of them by telling hospitals to put their elderly in the homes to stay safe. I LOST 2 relatives in one of those homes!!!!!. I do not know where you came from but I grew up in a communist/socialist country, came to this country to get away from the violence, lies, stealing, dictatorship, with no rights, everyone poor, only the politicians are rich and now the US is headed to socialism fast and the left wants it. You should learn some world history young man. Your blinded, biased one sided arrogance does not serve you well. I served this great country 15 years and proud of it btw. So get rid of police sure and you will see total chaos, spilling into your glamorous, fancy private gated suburbs. Sadly, you rich schmucks have no idea whats REALLY going on until it comes to your neighborhood or front door. Ok, I have my ATP & 2200 hrs but never used it, and my primary background is in the medical field, has been along time now and I know that all these t-shirt material masks and surgical blue/white ones are useless against colds, flu and covid.... N98 "medical use" and higher and there's a good chance of protection. We wear these simple masks in the OR/operating room to protect the surgical field and patient, not ourselves and we change them every 13-15 minutes, no touch, and take 5-7 minutes to breathe. Pushing masks for covid is like using an open fence to stop dirt from blowing through it. The Democrats used to be a good party in the US, but are all about serving themselves and China. Agenda 21, ID2020, Agenda 2030, Rockefeller Foundation knew about covid 19 in 2010 because their team with the Bill Gates Foundation med team genetically re-engineered this normal covid to attack humans. Look at the millions murdered by vaccine testing by Bill Gates and ID 2020 in India and Africa. This is no conspiracy theory, it is conspiracy!!!, look it up, this is REAL, and it is happening right now. You'll change your mind when vaccines are forced on you.. Those vaccines will come with a (micro chip too)
I'm always confused when people say "single piston engine" as if the engine had only one piston...I guess is another way saying single engine, meaning those types of altitudes are dominated by multi engine or turboprops.
Niko, TX is the only state that can have all 4 seasons in the same day. Enjoyed this final lap of your coast to coast adventure. The next Xbox console will feature “Flying With Niko”. As always, safe skies my friend. 🛫🌌🛬
What was the fuel bill for the total time and the amortized maintenance costs? I learned this lesson when I did my first long-distance cross-country from Palo Alto, CA to Long Beach, CA. The round trip cost me over $800 for the rental and fuel (PA28-181). The commercial r/t would have been $100.
Gotta be one of the best visual video's produced so far, the aerial shots during the day, and also the night shots, just awesome, but hey, your other videos? ...that's why I subscribed! - Great job Niko!
Niko not sure when you took that trip but it sounds like a trip i took in November I went to SEMA on a SR22T thru Memphis and Santa Fe, then got up with a friend I met at Flight Safety and did the Hoover Dam and flew all over Colorado. I left there went to Arlington to catch up on some multi engine training I landed on a Sunday night it was 75. The next day it was in the 30’s icing wind blowing like crazy. It was so unbelievably cold. When I left Texas from San Antonio I had a 50knot tailwind also doing 250 across the ground on the way back the APF. One of the best experiences I have taken I would do it again in a minute. You are a artist with the videos thanks for putting them out
Another excellent video...I picked up the microsoft flight simulator game and have been flying your same flight plans with the SR22! Keep up the good work!
Niko will you show the O2 refill? I know you showed the equipment in an episode. It would be cool seeing it get topped off briefly in a video. Thanks, Great Video!
Love the channel man, With all the other aviation channels theres soo much other BS and brand pushing and obnoxiousness (Like guys wearing their bars on camera, or calling themselves captain when theyre an FO) and as an ATP myself, im just really glad to see youre not a part of that. Just quality content, love it! Maybe I'll catch you one day in downtown Chicago.
I see you are not using the blue mask? What is the model of the mask? Where did you get the clear mask? How does it perform compared to the blue mask. Looks like you just tucked the mic from your headest in the side of the mask?
Good stuff as always! 👍🏼
Your videos are wonderful too. Keep doing what you are doing. Like Nikko, you are helping us all to be safe and better pilots. If people are not subscribing to your videos, they are missing out.
Great Job! Thanks for taking us along!

As a somewhat experienced pilot myself, I applaud all of his videos. He shows the true excitement and fun of aviation that we all hope to see on our adventures. Keep it up man!
This man is living the real dream.
Another great video Niko. That tailwind on your flight home was fortuitous, both for speed and fuel consumption. Your flight videos are very professional, as well as enjoyable. Always enjoy being your UA-cam copilot.
Who else thought that was Nico Rosberg for a minute😅
Thats why i clicked lmao
I thought it was toto wolfe haha
Another excellent video, Niko. This armchair pilot never gets used to the bad weather which small aeroplanes can take in their stride depending up the avionics and systems fit. Impressive set of landing lights too! Cheers!
Time to buy a spare, portable oxygen bottle, Niko. That was a really impressive flight. Bravo!
Great video Niko. Thanks for taking us along. Stay safe my friend.
Thanks for the spectacular views...again, Niko. Safe skies. Regards from NYC.
Thank you Niko. Good flying and judgment ends a week long journey safely. Fly safe. Stay safe
Thanks for sharing these amazing experiences with all of us here! I look forward to your very well made videos.
Great video Niko! Your editing skills are growing better and better! Really enjoyed your mixing of the physical environment with the spectacular scenery overflown.

One of the best Niko! Your coast to coast series was great. I hope to do that in a Cirrus someday. You are getting so much great experience flying in all these conditions and places. Thanks for sharing with us desk flyers! 😀😊👍🏼
Nice tailwind flight. Looks like you might need a pressurized model soon. Thanks for the scenery and ride.
Yes but not too many options in a similar price point for piston or turboprop even in used market
@@NikosWings I understand. Still love your vids. Can't afford everything. Hope the kitty is doing well and all of the family.
Thanks Bill, the kitty is growing... fast...
Just getting ready for bed and this pops up on the notifications. No better way to end an evening. Amazing video, stay safe and keep up the great work!
Love flying over the southwest, so beautiful. So cool that you got to check out the Hoover dam and grand canyon like that!
Nice flights again... I would like to see more you instruments during landings and takeoffs. Have a great weekend!
What an awesome flight. You sure capture some amazing shots along the way. Thanks as always for sharing this with me.
Incredible flights with you always in that small single prop plane of yours....Amazes me everytime I watch.... Excellent views included...Thanks Niko for ride along again 👍🏼

beautiful and sick plane... wow what a joy riding alone high in the sky and knowing that you are closer to that moon than millions of people
Very impressive video and aircraft performance
Just a complete example of how general aviation can be done , excellent!
Wish my Grumman could make it up there! Nice vid as always
Wish my Nike's could make it up there!
That was some crazy weather changes! Great job flying safely!
I can only say that I am so envious!! your are very fortunate to get to buzz around in one of the best single engine planes. Heart problems took my medical.
Too bad hope you feel better
Niko your a "great pilot".. watching you keeps my ATC clearances and communications sharp.Being a pilot and flying is such a great exclusivity not just every one does it.It sounded like ATC made up a bunch of B.S. about a mechanical.That entire scenario was bizarre but you handled it very very professionally you were level headed and kept your cool and canceled your IFR switched to VFR that was a great solution to that entire craziness.
I really enjoyed that. Great flying, filming and music. Awesome!
Spectacular video vlog Niko! Loved the moon shot at 9:35! And thank you for that beautiful view of Addison ADS! That’s my old stomping grounds and ADS is where I finished up my Private Pilot Certificate many decades ago! And yes, it does get cold in Texas. So I moved to Corpus Christi KCRP, which is just about as far South as one can go. Palm tree and warm sunny beaches for me when I’m not flying!
Sweet video Niko!
Really enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing your trip.
You could have named this episode: Niko Loves The Flight Levels!!!!!!!!!
He likes oxygen)))) that's why!!
I look forward to watching your videos
Awesome night flight !! Thanks for the ride !!!
Great video as usual, thank you for sharing Niko. I Hope you and your family are well
Ahhhh these videos make me so happy
It's the grandest of canyons. Thanks for showing me my family's turf.
loved that small audio editing touch when u removed the headphones to put on the oxygen mask, great for immersion
Hi, Niko. The Grand Canyon is better when seen from Niko's Wings! Great views. The interior lighting of your plane is beautiful. Crystal clear back home at night. Beautiful! Thanks for sharing! Stay healthy!

That cirrus is one hell of an aircraft. I think the Mooney is a really cool piston as well.
But company went belly up
Niko's Wings idk what’s going on, thought I saw a new Mooney. Pretty sure they’re back in business

Nothing better than watching your video after school 😎
love the videos. right amount of visuals and the right amount of conversation. No obnoxious amount of music is also a huge +. subscribed..
Excellent video Niko! The SR22 is such a capable airplane, and it is cool to see someone really put it through its paces on such a long cross country!

Thats North Texas for you! Have to be ready at all times for any weather.
Next time I’m near the airport and see a red Tesla S turn in, I’ll assume it’s probably you. Love your channel.
That airplane is a dream 😍 Nice video
Wonderful video, highlighting the incredible capabilities of the Turbo Cirrus. I had mine up to FL190 recently, KABQ-KCOS. Thanks for sharing.

Congratulations on your decision to start this exciting journey!
That plane is gorgeous in silver!
Welcome to Ft. Worth. Keep me in mind when you come through this part of the country. Hope to meet you sometime. Be safe!
Thanks for sharing Niko...I love your attitude..you never stop reaching beyond your comfort level...go for it..and best wishes, Niko ..
He doesn't always control his attitude, very often that is controlled by his autopilot.
I like when they cleared you DOWN to 17,000'; I have to struggle to get UP to 15,000' in my Varieze :-)
LOVED the Hoover Dam, Albuquerque, and Grand Canyon. Bravo!

Look at the millions murdered by vaccine testing by Bill Gates and ID 2020 in India and Africa. This is no conspiracy theory, it is conspiracy!!!, look it up, this is REAL, and it is happening right now. You'll change your mind when vaccines are forced on you.. Those vaccines will come with a (micro chip too)
Very nice! I have flown my aircraft from coast to coast twice - it is a Husky A1-B! It took me much longer....
Love these videos ..an escape from the mundane ..cheers Niko 😁
Wow, great speed, and yes more fast than airlines, great video, greets from Mexico.
Nice flight home for you Niko. I enjoyed the series 👍
Another great video.Thank you so much.
Fantastic Video Niko! Always look forward to your next! Keep up the awesome job!
That was an epic flight that I'll be doing for sure in Flight Sim 2020 🤟
I can get you the flight paths if you want. Email me niko@NikosWings.com
@@NikosWings email sent. You're awesome my friend!
Always enjoy your flights Niko! Beautiful Aircraft!
Short on oxygen just on time ! Good video as always !
I'm always so impressed with the SR22T performance... It must be incredible to be up in the FLs in a single piston engine. Great video as always Niko!
I'm always confused when people say "single piston engine" as if the engine had only one piston...I guess is another way saying single engine, meaning those types of altitudes are dominated by multi engine or turboprops.
Niko, TX is the only state that can have all 4 seasons in the same day. Enjoyed this final lap of your coast to coast adventure. The next Xbox console will feature “Flying With Niko”. As always, safe skies my friend. 🛫🌌🛬
Athena had that look at the end like, "Put me IN the hanger... I am DONE! Goodnight Niko!"
I like the way you did the map... 100% reminded me of Indiana Jones
Awesome video!
What was the fuel bill for the total time and the amortized maintenance costs? I learned this lesson when I did my first long-distance cross-country from Palo Alto, CA to Long Beach, CA. The round trip cost me over $800 for the rental and fuel (PA28-181). The commercial r/t would have been $100.
It has been answered. You don’t own. Used to be there.
Gotta be one of the best visual video's produced so far, the aerial shots during the day, and also the night shots, just awesome, but hey, your other videos? ...that's why I subscribed! - Great job Niko!
What a life I hope I can one day do that.
Great video 👍
Great Video, thx Nico, you’re a amazing Pilot
Niko not sure when you took that trip but it sounds like a trip i took in November I went to SEMA on a SR22T thru Memphis and Santa Fe, then got up with a friend I met at Flight Safety and did the Hoover Dam and flew all over Colorado. I left there went to Arlington to catch up on some multi engine training I landed on a Sunday night it was 75. The next day it was in the 30’s icing wind blowing like crazy. It was so unbelievably cold. When I left Texas from San Antonio I had a 50knot tailwind also doing 250 across the ground on the way back the APF. One of the best experiences I have taken I would do it again in a minute. You are a artist with the videos thanks for putting them out
It was the same day my friend November 11, 2019... small world...
Smooth sailing with a plane. Nice.
Some people drive their car to work. Niko: Hold my b̶e̶e̶r̶ koolaid.
Finishing my cirrus transition training tomorrow! Excited
Congratulations. How does it feel to be a Cirrus pilot?
Great video . New to here . What is the make and model of your plane ? I will keep searching . Thank you .
Cirrus SR22 Turbo G6
Another excellent video...I picked up the microsoft flight simulator game and have been flying your same flight plans with the SR22! Keep up the good work!
Awesome let me know how it is
@@NikosWings It's an awesome game. You just need the hardware to handle it. As for flying, I need a LOT of practice with my coordinated turns.
Niko will you show the O2 refill? I know you showed the equipment in an episode. It would be cool seeing it get topped off briefly in a video. Thanks, Great Video!
Yup
Love the channel man, With all the other aviation channels theres soo much other BS and brand pushing and obnoxiousness (Like guys wearing their bars on camera, or calling themselves captain when theyre an FO) and as an ATP myself, im just really glad to see youre not a part of that. Just quality content, love it! Maybe I'll catch you one day in downtown Chicago.
Niko's Wings is one of the reasons I plan to change my 172 for a Cirrus!
I don't know if you'll see this, but the map graphic you did at 6:40, you should definitely include these more in your videos.
SZ serving you well...nice scenery
Your the man love your videos I want in safe future flights!!!!
I see you are not using the blue mask? What is the model of the mask? Where did you get the clear mask? How does it perform compared to the blue mask. Looks like you just tucked the mic from your headest in the side of the mask?
It’s better and more comfy. It came with the X3 conserver
Thanks for showing us your true airspeed at cruise. Maybe you could show us your fuel flows and if you run rich or lean of peak.
16gph always LOP
I see a Vision Jet in your future...... Love the content Niko
The only thing I like about the Vision Jet is the parachute, everything else is not for me especially the price tag lol 😂
good flying NIKO!!
Great as always, just curious when you flew over the gulf do you always have floatation? thanks again
Didn’t fly over the gulf, the graphic map is misleading, I went thru HEVVN
