Thank you again, sir! Once I become current and comfortable, I’ll be grabbing any gig that I can.
I would enjoy hearing more about your pilot journey. Did you have any major setbacks/struggles along the way? On the flip side, did you have any times where you were just in the right place at the right time? Did you ever think that your career would lead you to be a UA-cam sensation, haha?
Thanks Jim, your videos serve as a good kick in the pants to keep studying. Also, the live webcast was great, glad I was able to catch it. I laughed so hard when you were still live and the wife called! Anyway, have a great night, pass along a ‘hello’ to Mike as well.
Long trip - having to juggle passengers and fuel load allowed. "Only gusting 30" .. more than enough!
That must have been one of your longest flight Jim I think. Lots of great interest stuff at Long Beach.
Hope the time off was enjoyable.
Your videos certainly find the sweet spot Jim - much appreciated.
Loved this one! Never thought of the "not busy; too busy" aspect of making vlogs. You keep things mighty interesting, sir.
Thanks Kenneth.
Heck, I was hoping for another of you and your wife's cruise videos. Thanks for the videos Jim.
I would love to do that, just can't afford it right now. But, I am going to put up a vacation video.
Excellent,just getting better with time ,like an old wine 🍷!
thanks Ralph.
Very nice. You didn't get to see the race?? Great job flying in lots of traffic.
When I was a kid I lived under one of the approaches to Long Beach and used to see innumerable flying boats on approach from Catalina. Must have been a good business.
I think it's a good thing you encourage budding pilots.
So, when you went in for the ADS-B upgrade, did you just get ADS-B OUT or In and Out?
One thing I'd like to add to your 'looking for a job' thing, although everyone who is in that position basically already knows it. Don't be afraid to take part time positions. You need a minimum of 1,500 hours for your ATP, and the Feds haven't yet figured out that you don't really need the ATP for a First Officer position, but they still require it (thanks to the Colgon Air incident). So, if you can find a Part 135 or Part 91 job doing charter or business aviation, take it.
I doubt very much that I'll ever fly as PIC again, finances, maybe medical, etc. all conspire to keep me grounded. I'm too old now to try to track down a flying career, but if I was even just 20 years younger, I most certainly would be trying for it.
Grab that brass ring as it goes around, you never know where you might end up.
Love your flights, Thanks
LONG BEACH ?... Thats my home town ! .. GREAT Hamburger at FUDRUCKERS in the Mall ( lol ) ................ Glad you had a good flight.
Hanks Robert.
Ha, I was just just in Salina two weeks ago with my family.
Man luv that one landed like floatin like when mikes there hes a cool pilot luv those videos enjoy every flight thxs capt
Thanks for watching Brian.
Hey, just noticed that FlightSafety hat. I actually work in the Broken Arrow production facility. Keep the cool videos coming!
The FLIGHT TEST Virgin 744 will be used by Virgin Galactic as a launch vehicle for their Rockets/space vehicle
very cool.
Thanks for all the great videos!
I have flown a private Airplanes at Burbank, Van Nuys and Long Beach,
Hi David.
Great video. Great channel! 👍
Damn it. I live In Long Beach. We could have had a feast like Kings.
Whose blunder was that one (the conflict?). Sounded like ATC might have blown it.
Another great video Jim! Thanks for the pilot job tips too. Can you get part time work with 700 hours TT and Comm/Inst/ Multi beyond teaching? I know the job market is great but seems like 1000-1200 TT is base time to get charter work. Curious your thoughts. Thanks!
It's a shame the "Spruce Goose" is no longer in Long Beach. I imagine you would have enjoyed that tour.
I did that about thirty years ago. Would like to see it again.
Buster Keaton in the right seat : )
Starbucks comrade? Good choice.
Penske has a bigger jet. ;-)
Should have gone to Joe Jost's.... Long Beach staple for the last 50 years. Just sayin.
Lol IVE FLOWN N1LF u can hear atc calling them
What kind of airplane is it?
I'm a little surprised that an Excel can't make it from STL to LGB on fuel - even with six passengers. Three hours from Salina to Long Beach .... must have been some serious head winds.
And, look at the size of that Penske Racing CRJ at 11:13. Nice private ride.
I see you keep the pilot emergency rations, i.e. snickers bar, handy!
I'm just glad Mike didn;t grab it.
WOW! Long day! I picked up my Skylane with a new Garmin GTX345 in/out, and left at dark from Portland. Halfway up the gorge to Walla Walla, the alternator quit! Hope your day goes better!
1:38 Delta light chop lmao
Interesting that you went with the small coffee. I always go with a Venti size. Highly recommended.
Great AeroVlog!
Just flew to Spirit if St. Louis to see my grandparents that live in o’Fallon, flew from Salina haha
Always like your video's, your co pilot has such a relaxed voice when flying. ;-)
My only “close” call when I was flying was going into Long Beach. We were getting ready to make a turn heading towards LGB and a AirCal 737 flew from our 4 o’clock to 11 o’clock and maybe 200 feet. We got caught up in the wake and it got exciting for a few moments. Had to do the paperwork with the FAA.
Good times. Hate that area to fly in. Thanks for the video!
Interesting! Aviation and Indycar! The Penske jet!!! 👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
That's one thing ya gotta be alert for is that traffic alert. CAS sure makes life a little easier
Looking very nice... Fly safe always...
This video made me miss home. I used to plane watch in the late 70's at Orange County (Before it was named John Wayne) from the upper deck of the old tiny terminal. No Sky Bridges back then.
I wish that I knew that you guys were in my part of the world. I could have set you up with great places to eat and some things to do in the area of LGB. Thanks for stopping by.
Surprising I would have thought the plane would have ADS-B in and out all ready ?
Ooops, Salida Colorado is where we went. Misunderstood.
Nice video
I would love live streams, nice video.
Orange cranberry scone is good. So I am told.
What conflict? more clickbait here
Your videos bring back a lot of memories. I used to fly N2S (a Citation 550). Your call sign is eerily close. The airplane was owned by a big Hollywood Producer and managed by the Air Group.
Did you ever stop in Salina and have Flower Aviation offer you free steaks? Flower went out of business but many of us will remember the “flower girls” and the ten minute fuel turn service. I am retired now and do not miss the hotel rooms or wondering when the folks really will show up. Very nice channel. Excellent videos with superb audio. Enjoy the flying... those years can go by very quickly. I was fortunate to have 32 years with the same company. I go to a church really close to KSUS. I have probably looked up seen you landing to the East. I really have a warm spot in my heart for Cessnas.
I used to stop there all the time when I was flying a Citation III out to the west coast. I can't remember how the steaks were but, I was always happy to get them.
Long Beach, lot's of runways
I believe it’s positive rate then gear up.
You did not go to the Long Beach Grand Prix?
A lot of good info in your pod cast.BTW
Salina Ks
Great job! UA-cam lives are great for Q & A's from your hotel.....looking forward to more of them
Nice
There is a shortage of airline pilots here in Australia apparently. Here in Wangaratta where I live our airport is to turn into a Quantas flight training centre to train pilots and work for Quantas. Maybe I get could fit in if I can get some funding.
Maybe you and your wife should get an RV and be a real nomad...your new channel...I’ll subscribe.
That's in our future and e have the truck now. gotta get an RV trailer.
Thanks for the flight, and the tour around Long Beach. Great stuff as usual! 👍
Hope to catch one of your live streams soon if my work shift pattern allows for it,really enjoying the videos Capt : )
Jim you are awesome !
I love your flight vlog
Yuval from Israel
thanks Yuval
The the climb from 250 to 1500 hour is about a 89 deg. slope and they wonder why there are no pilots left.
That's without a doubt the hardest part.
Start up a side venture - Flowers of the Airways! :)
I need to
HI captmoonbeam just fine jets congratulations from carlos cepeda diaz from torreon coahuila mexico.
That Virgin 747 was probably the future carrier vehicle for Virgin Galactic's space launch service. They're going to launch a small orbital rocket mounted to the ferry engine hardpoint.
Question? You mentioned you couldn’t do a flight for 4 hours with 6 passengers. I flew a Citation X 750 and I must be missing something? I seem to recall the range was over 3000 miles? Granted, we were light with only 4 on board... full fuel... I’m missing something from your statement...?
Are most pilot jobs, word of mouth or is there a website posting?
Airline and many corporate jobs are posted. Most corporate flight departments are very small and those tend to be word of mouth.
I have been watching your videos for years. I am born and raised in Long Beach, California. Welcome to our city!!!! Hope you've had a wonderful time!!!
Stayed at that Courtyard years ago while working on a deal with McDonald-Douglas for HP. First visit, I checked into the lobby and was escorted to a conference room. Past the lobby was pictures of their airplanes through the years. At the end, on the left side, was a Soviet transport aircraft.
I asked the guys in the conference room why there was a picture of that plane. They said that the Soviets stole the plans and copied it down to the flaws. Since it was basically a McDonald-Douglas plane, they put it up in the hallway.
Forget warplanes built there. 100's of DC-10's, DC-9's, MD-80's, etc. I used to see them pull airframes across Long Beach Blvd!
Instead of just sitting around all day on race day, why didn't you GO TO THE RACES? I like your vids and also your talk on jobs. If only I were 40 years younger, you guys now have all the good gadgets
I wish I knew you guys were coming to LGB my home town. I would have enjoyed taking some pictures of you guys landing.
Jim as always thanks for taking us with you. Would like to see more of your live streams you can put up an announcement your going to go live in like 30 minutes to give subscribers a chance to get notified that you will be going live before you go live. Have a great week. God Bless!!!
Lots of traffic in that LA area, Yes.... definitely more live streams, it's great to be able to ask questions live.
Just discovered your channel. Great work, very easy to watch and always interesting. Wishing you all the best. 👍
NASCAR trucks!! Now, I see why you stayed at the hotel! Great advice on the part time flying jobs too!
Cheeky inclusion of the Delta flights' referencing light chop at FL380 lol!
Wish I could roll back time. They don't like us 'driving' after 70 years old.
Who’s Steve Vinski?
That Beetle in the reflection of the Starbucks door!👌🏻
You've got this Fries 'n Fly routine pretty much sewn up, captmb. Nobody does it better. Yeah, like the reference to the NYP too.
Thanks Snort. I feel like the food part is a confession that I've been bad.
Well, there's no substitute for good livin'.
Love your videos Captain, and this was a good one.. thanks for sharing!
The heck happened to that coffee machine hahaha
Awesome, sadly I couldn’t get in contact with you guys. Would’ve flown you and Mike in the 172 to San Diego for some authentic Mexican!
Hi Noel. That's Ok but, I do love Mexican food.
Nicely done with that night shot at Spirit. Turned out nicely.
Great video Jim. That was a long day !
Good afternoon Jim. Great idea about killing time with the livecasts from your room, but next time you do it, could you send out an email blast on your Patreon account so we can get a heads up? I'd love to participate in the next one. Tell Mike hi for me.
That's a god idea. The last one I did I wasn't expecting to do a live stream. I was just trying to make it work. When I saw I actually was live and someone was there I just went with the moment.
Excellent as usually, please make more.
👋🏻KSRQ☀️🏝🇺🇸👨🏼✈️🛩
😀😀
Another loooong day. Such is the life of a corporate pilot. LOL. What you need to do is get your company to buy a nice new Gulfstream G600. No more fuel stops with that bad boy.
I recall way back when I would make the EWR-LAX trip, we would have to stop in the winter, winds you know. We would stop in Lincoln, Nebraska. Each crew dog got a box with four steaks and whoever was standing by while they pumped got a pair of Ray Ban sunglasses. To this day I have four pair, unopened.
It’s a shame the Spruce Goose is no longer in Long Beach. I spent many a day killing time there.
Ahh, a pilot shortage, maybe I can get a job, i have 27k of time under my belt, think I’d qualify. Too bad I’ve retired. Go figure.
Happy flying !!
I would have been all over the sunglasses. Much better than frozen steaks. They don't give out steaks in Salina anymore.
Sounds like you need to add a Challenger 300/600 to the fleet :) (or maybe the new citation Longitude). The M2 has the G3000 package, is it already ADS-B cert or does it have to go in as well?
It already is.
What runway end were you off of when you pointed to the Boeing building? Those used to be Douglas Aircraft Company buildings. The one you had your cell phone pointed towards looked like building 84, which built the C-17. I worked there for awhile as a senior analyst for aircraft construction.
I would only be guessing if I told you. I was just wandering around when I came by it.
Hi Jim, i work part time at our FBO, when you fly cross country be sure to stop at OFK, we have good competitive priced Jet A
thanks for the heads up on that Richard.
Good stuff, as always! Do you use PowerDirector for editing? If you ever get to KBIL, let me know!
Thanks Tony. Yes I do.
Thank you Capt. I really enjoyed it, the XLS is such a sexy jet and you have the funniest job!
I think the XLS is a great airplane, love it.
I earned all my pilot ratings except for my private license out of Long Beach. Got my Lear Jet type there too.
that would be a great place to perfect your radio skills.
Have a safe and enjoyable vacation with your wife. Will look forward to your next video
Fred
thanks Fred.
Captain Jim. YOU GUYS are THE best! That's on the web and everywhere else. :)
Thanks Michael. I appreciate that.
Have you ever had an inflight coffee incident, such as it ending up all over you or the instrument panel?
No. But when I was first flying the Embraer 120 I had a cup to tomato juice and set it between my legs on the seat for a moment. Except for, the seat had a cut out there and the cup fell to the floor and splattered everywhere. Big mess.
So, did you mean with 6 people the planes range is shorter? Great video,thank you.

The plane (all planes) have a useful payload which is shard with fuel. So more people eat into the amount of fuel you carry.
It’s a trade off, seats full or tanks full...
How long have you been flying? I can see you have alot of experience.
Since 1987.
Have you ever flown to KLOU (Bowman field) in Louisville, KY?
I flew into there in a Citation M2 once and I think another time in an Encore.
I got my private pilot's license there back in 1973 when Kentucky Flying Service was still around on a C-150. Dick Mulloy gave me the check ride. That was before they closed 1/19 and you could land on the grass on either side of the active runway if you wanted to. I went to college shortly after finishing my license and haven't flown since. I just live vicariously through stuff like this.
First time first view! and comment! Nice as always!
Thanks
