The fact that you can pick these up for less than $1 million is amazing. I've always had a thing for the 500s. Abram, you've got a really sweet plane there.
Hey Mojo, I like your channel too! Unfortunately, my understanding is that the sub 1 Mil ones are far from the updated aircraft that you could actually use. They can be "fixed" but I would imagine that the cost would be more then it would be worth.
Good to see mojoGrip here also. Avid watcher and subscriber to your great channel.
RADThird1 (actually use) please clarify what you’re trying to say.
original build quality wasn't so great, needs to be upgraded to be good. At KCPT, the one owned by John Travolta (I've been told) has been sitting for a long time...appears to need a major upgrade which is why its sitting wasting in the sun
Thanks, MojoGrip!
Abram’s clearly in his element flying. What a nice guy!
Thank you so much!
As a 100% Service Disabled Vietnam Veteran I would like to say “Thank you for all your service and kindness to our Disabled Veterans!”. Services such as yours was not available to Disabled veterans returning from Vietnam or other conflicts. It is very rewarding to see this come about for those returning from war zones today. During these horrible events for veterans and love ones it is very difficult to work through needs and with your service that problem is resolved. Thank you again kind sir! Btw our son is a Attorney in Frisco And Partner in a firm headquartered in St. Louis, Mo. he travels a lot speaking at various events as he is an expert in the field of Cybersecurity and Data Privacy with Spencer, Fane and Browne Law Firm. He would benefit a great deal getting his pilot license and own plane to do all of his traveling.
Bob, I truly appreciate your sentiments, but it is I who would like to say "Thank you for your service" to you! What I do for men and women like you is nothing compared to what you have done for me. You have given more to this nation than anyone can ask for and my family and I thank you!
Write a book.
Your airplane is cool, but you are a great man with a big heart and a passion to be of service to the needs of others. No wonder you are so greatly Blessed.
pixamite1 Thank you for your very kind words! I truly appreciate every opportunity I have to do the things I do.
I am VERY impressed with the pilot for his volunteer work! Nice looking airplane and great video.
One of the most enjoyable Doodles. Really great to see such a natural pilot like Abram. You could not help but notice his professionalism and love of flying. He definitely is one with his aircraft.
Thank you for your very kind comments!
What a great guy and so generous with his time and money.
Thank you for your very kind words!
I initially judged Abram to be a personality that I wouldn't like. I'm glad I watched the whole thing, he seems to be a genuinely good guy, and definitely doesn't suffer from the borderline personality disorder I thought he would exhibit. Thanks Abram, and nice jet!
tell me more
Unfortunately these says having money is seen as bad, pretty sad
Greasy landing Abram!! Thanks for everything you do in your charity work.
Thanks, Christian!
Another good one Bobby......Abram seems a great guy and that is confirmed by his helping the great vets of this great country. Keep the vid's coming too.
YES! Abram literally seems such a nice person and that his small jet plane it's a literally a ship; I always kinda envy (because I didn't bean so smart earlier to pick a better profession - so I could afford or do what he clearly enjoy and love doing - love that perfect - BIG Jet plane !!
Nice aircraft, well done Bobby very relaxed flying it and well done to the owner on using it and his skills for the different charities and fun flights 👏👍🇦🇺
Each time I listen to pilots talking about their airplanes, I smile.
Because I know how much a man can love its own plane ............
I know, guys , your planes are awesome.
Cheers from France America, cheers from France planes lovers and happy new year to you all👋
Loved this one Bobby. What a cool little jet and thanks to Abram for the hospitality. He seems like a really good pilot and just a good guy to be around. Thanks guys for this, great ride ! Safe skies ! 🇺🇸🛫
A great flight that was a true joy to watch... Abram gets it - a true American patriot!
I keep hearing great things about this aircraft.
It is a wonderful airplane.
Amazing jet! Fantastic owner/pilot! Good job, Bobby!
great overview of the aircraft and what a nice guy
Thank you!!!!
Watching from Philippines! 🇵🇭 🇵🇭
The world needs people like you
Very nice Eclipse 500 like the Cam under the Wing, thumb up it survives.
Thank you Abram for sharing your plane with the viewers.
Great vid thanks. I followed the development and fortunes of these and the a380 concurrently.
It’s exiting when your watching one of your favorite UA-cam channel and see someone you know. I live in South Florida and know Abram he’s a really an amazing guy. I was new to aviation and Abram spent time and money to encourage me and took me for a flight in his jet I’ll never forget the experience. Thanks to Flying Doodles and thanks Abram for the mentoring and charity work you do.
Hey, Paul! It is great to hear from you. I hope that you are doing well!
You’re a good man Charlie Brown...using your jet to help people and teach kids!
Abram, please continue your good works. May God always be your Co-Pilot.
Thank you very much for your comments. I really appreciate it.
Nice to see guys give back when they've "made it". Seems like a fun little plane and a serious tool all in one package!
I know a fella you should interview. Retired Marine Colonel Jack Jackson. You can find him up at KSUS. Over 600 missions in Vietnam and Boeing's former Chief Harrier test pilot. He also served in Missouri's House of Representatives. History Channel also did an interview with him which you can find here on UA-cam. He's currently flying Eclipse 550's. The folks at Million Air KSUS can help you get in touch. Tell James from Line Service sent you! Jack Jackson is a true living legend!
Mate your awesome..... helping people in need makes my heart melt.
Your the best from OZ
Thanks for your kindness
Really enjoyed this. Abram is really nice and has a great plane.
You hit that one outta the park. Bases loaded bottom of the 9th. Still got your mojo. Abram's Sensei in the Dojo.
Great video, I always like it when the pilots say what they do for a living it’s amazing how diverse everyone is in the workforce.
Nice job on the edit. Couldn't tell there was a problem.
Good to see you back in a jet Bobby
The fact he let him fly shows his passion as a pilot and humble as well owning this aircraft
What a great guy Abram. Bobby another good one!! Cool jet.
Love these videos...cool jet and great owner....Thanks for sharing with us! Also, had you not mentioned the camera issue, I wouldn't have noticed anything was missing.....great job with the editing!
Wonderful smart Jet,
keep on doing the good job helping others
Great to hear the eclipse is still going and has found its nitch. Great airplane!
The Eclipse 500 is an incredible airplane. It is very responsive and handles great. Landing without having to deploy spoilers or reverse thrust is a great advantage. Apply breaking action to stop the aircraft after touchdown . Great job flying side stick mount, Bobby. You haven’t lost a step since you were forced to discontinue flying. Always find your videos interesting and informative. Abram is a great guy who makes flying enjoyable. He also deserves congrats for his generosity in giving back to people in need. Take care and stay well!
James Wikstrom Thank you very much for your comments. Bobby is a great guy and you are right,; he hasn’t lost a step!
Thanks for the 411 on polarized sunglasses. I didn't know they were not good for flying.
Your a class act. For someone as blessed as yourself and with the experience you are able to afford yourself, it’s great to see that you help others as well. Especially the veterans and children with illnesses. Good for you!
Wow, that's a nice looking tini-tiny jet. The interior reminds me of a mini van. Thanks Bobby excellent vid.
Man he stuck that landing. Nice plane and competent pilot.
Wow! Thanks for this very inspiring video! This video is definitely worth sharing!
I just randomly came across this video as I was watching James Asquith's travel vlog featuring this jet. Hopefully, someday, I'd be able to fly with this private jet. It would definitely tick off my bucket list. 👏👏 Good luck on your next videos! Keep it up! 😊😊
What a gorgeous aircraft. I love the interior !!!!!
Congratulations sir !
+1 on the volunteering bloke. Especially volunteering with disabled kids. Kudos to you
Love this Eclipse Jet video! Awesome aircraft! Thanks for putting it together! Beautiful! 👍🏻
Great idea showing different airplanes and interviewing owners who give a great rundown on the aircraft from a non sales type of view. EXCELLENT channel I really enjoy each of these you do so thank you man!!!
Awesome plane great flight thanks for the ride.
This guy is a role model for aviators
Great video! unlike many, Abram actually puts it on the center line. Well done.
Such a sweet little jet. I wish the company were doing better. Hopefully they'll be able to get it on more solid footing soon.
Large bankruptcy in general aviation history at well over a billion.
Love this series (and Sailing Doodles too). Thanks for producing these.
A fine human being and a great airplane! Nice camera angles, too.
What a great guy he is ! Blessings !
Didn't miss a thing with the potential camera heat problem. Great editing. That jet is so cool. Thanks Bobby!
Wow! What a great individual. Great video.
Beautiful Jet, just the right size‼️👍👍✈️ Vinny 🇺🇸
Great demo. Great use for aircraft utility.
Hello from Scotland 🏴
5:05 great that's a big part of my plan too, helping other people 👍
seems like a great guy, nice video thanks for sharing
What a cool jet!!! Nicely done! Thanks for the video
Love this jet and Abram is very confident on the radio as well as being a great humanitarian. As far as i know ONE AVIATION is working on a upgraded, larger model of this jet named the CANADA, although I don't know how far off production it is.
One Aviation has been in bankruptcy since 2018, so any development has ceased. A chinese company was trying to acquire the company, but I recall they ran into some snags in bankruptcy court in May 2020.
great video Bobby, even when the heat messes the go pro's up 🛩🐩🐩👍
That's awesome my friend. The charities you support with your flying. I'm in the process of getting my pilots license and planning to get my instrument rating as well. I hope I have the opportunity to contribute to the same charities as well
Gosh where do you find these awesome airplane owners? Its just such a pleasure to look your videos, inspiring, relaxing and so much positivity. Keep them comming.
Cool guy ... cool plane
Enjoyed thoroughly as always thanks Bobby
Abram seems like a genuine guy.
Abram is really nice
Beautiful videography. Nice ride, the Eclipse. Thanks for sharing.
I like how advanced the panel is.
Bobby what an amazing plane, I like the fact that it has stick, and seems very smooth flying!!. Nice pro work with all the footage, congrats man! You did it again!!!
Remember in the late mid to late 1990's when these were proposed and were supposed to cost $870,000? Pepperidge Farms remembers.
Nice jet, great guy!
Great video. I've always wanted to be a pilot. Aviation is my passion. But money to fly is not in the cards. So thanks for the flight.
Bobby is on a roll getting to fly the planes
Nice video, good use le Abram piloting to serve others
Great video , well done Bobby
This channel is hands down the best channel of its type.
I laughed at "1180 lbs of fuel doesn't even get you to taxi".
BTW The beard suits you well.
Great guy nice plane blue sky’s what more could you ask for and great footage bob thanks and cheers 🍻
All my respect to Abram, a real pleasure to hear what he is doing from the heart. I am new to your channel,,liked and subed.. 😁
I saw the beard and was like who is this?? Haha, looking good man. Awesome airplane too.
Shoutout to Abram for his volunteer work as well. That’s awesome.
Yo man I love this channel
good video good aircraft
wow twogreat people that give back your really killing it bob nice job
Love your videos and the people you interview! You’re a Great guy and great pilot yourself. Hope you fly solo again 👍
More jets, please. Love the content, keep it up!!!!
Great video of a great plane, and a great guy flying it! And well done for getting back on the horse (as it were) and being more comfortable at the controls. Perhaps a "Go Fund Me" is in order to help you get your medical? Just excellent work!
This plane always intrigued me because I think a single engine light, 2 place, long range (1,800) mile, pressurized 280-320 knot cruise w/small pisser in back is entirely feasible!!!. Including a movable CG I designed 3 years before Burton Rutan tore up that canard years ago. Single engine with the jet in the tail like to the L 1011... A seven hr range which includes 45 min reserve. Think it's possible?? I'll hold my breath!!
Super pilot! Bravo!👍🛩
That was a nice small jet!
These flying doodles are excellent enjoy them very much also I was wondering if while filming sailing doodles overseas you have a chance to fly in planes with the locals time Permitting of course I’m sure you stay pretty busy, thanks again
Fabulous. Loved it.
Great fun 2 professional pilots.
Alright I will say it, he looks a bit like Kylo Ren on that dashcam! :)
Very good I always wanted to see more of the small jets. I am just amazed that the external GoPros stayed attached. Those must be some incredible mounts.
