Bahamas #9: In the SOUP (IFR) on the Last Leg!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 сер 2024
- Bye bye Huntsville, it's time to head home. There's some delay as we attempt to get our IFR release on the ground but we finally get it and have a nice departure into an 800 ft ceiling. We were able to find the perfect cruising altitude between layers in smooth air. As we cross thru Nashville Approach airspace there was a humorous interaction between the controller and a King Air. By the time we hit Illinois, the weather was clear. In descent for landing we found some turbulence and had a bumpy/gusty landing.
Thank you all for your continued support and we look forward to more 2019 flying adventures!

Jamie is a great copilot! Takes a big load off you. Always enjoy you guys, learn something new on each flight. Like the way you scan the instrument panel with your cell phone and explain each instrument.
Glad you enjoyed it! I still plan on getting a different camera for the panel one day. Having her work the radios, especially IFR/IMC is great. Love having my co-pilot!!
Thanks for including us in your 2018 Bahamas vacation.
Glad you enjoyed it Marshall!
The blessing of living just one of the dreams! 🇺🇸 Yes, thanks for letting us come along!
I love your old school gauges. Don't ever change it.
Loved the King Air conversation. Made me smile too.
Brent Johnson talk about an old-timer,he did'nt want to give in. Skies are too crowded under watchful GC nowadays.
Joseph Troyer haha yes he was having fun being cheeky at the Brits say.
Lol it reminded me of the old story about the pilot that answered altitude when the controller said say altitude. Finally the controller came back with- say cancelling IFR. Controller for the win :D
I agree Brent...it was cool that neither one of them lost their cool. Nice enroute ATC humor. :)
I landed at Niles Michigan (3TR) on my way to Traverse City last year with a swirling wind coming around a group of trees west of runway 33. Felt just like your landing, I was on the ground for a second or so, then got lifted about 5 feet by a gust. Added a little power for a cushion and landed again. :-) My wife gave me this quizzical look. It was one of those "I hope no one saw that" moments. Pretty cool fuel stop as we landed behind a beautiful Howard piloted by a gentleman who was probably in his mid seventies along with his wife. I helped them push to the pumps and then to parking. A sudden gust with a little extra speed happens to all of us. Hey, it keeps us on our toes and our responses sharp. Great video, great trip, thanks for bringing us along.
Gotta love those gusty landing Alan. :) Nice job by adding a bit of power and putting her back down. Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for your continued support!
"Like riding a bull" coming into land at home base. I guess that is a sign of being relaxed after a brilliant holiday. Thankyou for sharing your holiday and showing off your great planning skills and ability to enjoy the moment! Enjoyed the whole series!
Thank you Robert! Glad you enjoyed it all. :)
A well coordinated crew, delightful to watch!
Eric
Thanks Eric...glad you thought so. Forgot to mention on my earlier comment. I was getting my helo commercial add on and had about 40 hours in the Robinson before I got too busy to finish years ago. Really my only flying regret was not finishing that up...maybe one day. :)
Like riding a bull....I can relate. Gusts 25 and at least 15 crosswind component. Of course I wasn't in the cockpit with you but I thought the landing was fine. Rarely have I seen a pilot land as consistently smooth as you do. End of an epic Bahamas adventure. Thank you Kevin and Jamie for allowing my wife and I to ride along, awesome footage !
Thanks for the nice compliment John!! Glad you and your wife enjoyed the series. Hopefully we have some fun adventures for ya'll in 2019. :)
Especially enjoyed the panel survey. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it David! I'm planning to try to get an additional camera of the gauges that I can use sometimes.
I agree, I especially liked that walk thru of all your gauges, and what they're used for, since this is all new to me. What is it, you use for an app on your ipad for that display? Looks like some sort of Garmin app maybe?
@@gj953 Glad you liked it! I use ForeFlight on the iPad.
Yes that was cool. Kevin you move those where you want them?
Fun video to watch! I had to smile listening to the King Air get "corrected". It made me think back to when I accidentally forgot to do that years ago. Something you'll only do once lol. Thanks for all the videos you share. It really is fun to watch and I look forward to what videos come next. You 2 have a happy and safe new year and all the best!
Glad you enjoyed it David! I really enjoyed both the King Air and the controller. Made for some good laughs while enroute home. :) Happy New Year!
Thank you for allowing us to ride along! Love it every time!
Awesome...glad you enjoyed it!
Hello Kevin, this was a fantastic video !! Jaime was an excellent co- pilot, flying at 8000 was a blast, love the airspeed of your 310, thanks for some nice camera out the side windows, plane sounds great as usual, now I would love to comment on your landing !! You nailed that landing with bull winds and you know it !! I was tense watching, first time for me, I knew you were going to have those winds coming in, that plane was being pushed left, then when you touched down your right wing came up some, you handled both outstanding !! As I said before, you and that 310 are one !!!
Thank you Dennis for the great comment! Glad you're enjoying the videos and I agree...I have the best co-pilot ever. :) Stay tuned for some fun 2019 flights after we get the new autopilot (STEC 3100) installed and finish up the annual...just in time for spring flying.
ROFL at 15:32-16:52, never a dull moment when ya'll are flying!! Love your videos, keep up the great work!
Ha ha...glad you think so! Thank you! :)
Love the channel. Just subscribed and you are on the watchlist with all the other great aviation tubers. Funny on the RCO. Those things don’t work right any more. Must be 70’s technology. Jamie you have a great voice and are an excellent co-pilot! Thanks for sharing you two!
Glad you're enjoying it Brian and thanks for subscribing!! I was all excited to show the RCO and what a bust. I did a flight with a friend in his Baron out of DFW and we got our clearance via PDC with ForeFlight. That will be great when we can do that at all uncontrolled fields and get releases as well.
Kevin, yes that will make getting the IFR clearances much easier and efficient. You should do a video on your Bahamas planning on filing the eAPIS and other planning you did. That is on my bucket list, and was so jealous of all the island hoping that you and Jamie did. Thanks again for the great videos!
Really enjoyed this video Kevin. Going from the soup to the clear sky was fun to watch. Welcome back to cold Illinois. Thanks for the close up of the instruments and explaining to us non pilots what everything does. Reminded me of when I would have a ride along in my squad car and explaining all the equipment to them. Fly safe and keep the videos coming.
Glad you enjoyed the video and panel review Dave! Thanks for the feedback. :)
Watched the whole series of your Bahamas trip. Great job with your videos.
Awesome! Thanks for watching Charles and glad you liked it!
Many thanks for sharing your adventures, my wife and I have really enjoyed your travels, brings back memories from our flying days. Some great airmanship and teamwork, great to see. Wishing you and your family all the best for 2019 from us in the UK.
Awesome...thank you Bill! Glad you and your wife enjoyed it. Happy New Year! :)
that was a great trip...….great job !! "Home sweet home"
Thank you Joe...glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for the series. My wife and I live in Texas and plan on doing a Bahama trip in a Cherokee this spring. Great landing, windy conditions. They all can't be perfect (as my wife will attest).
Glad you and your wife enjoyed the series David! I hope ya'll have a great Bahamas vacation as well...it really is made for GA out there. One day I'll find that perfect landing. :)
Great video of the return trip. I really enjoyed the Bahama series of videos. Tough to get back to reality after such a great vacation but I’m sure you missed the kids. I went on a lot of deployments in my military career and the best part was seeing our two young boys come racing up to me on the ramp as I de-planed the C-130 or the C-5, C-141, etc. etc. I haven’t seen your video with your kids yet but it’s on my list. Happy New Year to you both.
Happy New Year and thank you for your service!! Glad you enjoyed the series...that is my favorite so far as well. I will do the same with future trips and try to make some mini-series out of them. We did have an amazing time but like you said, we missed the kids and after 5 days away from them, we were ready to get back to them. Minus the 141, I've been on the other two. :)
"Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing!"
I heard that once.
Hey Guys
Just found you channel here in Sydney, Australia and enjoyed watching your Bahamas Trip. Really cool that you get to fly with your wife! Keep the videos coming. You are very fortunate to have a beautiful family.
Thank you for the nice comment Brendan and glad you found us! I hope you continue to enjoy the channel as we have some fun trips planned for the year. Your beautiful country is on our short list of places we want to visit one of these days!
Looking forward to seeing more of your trips... I don’t know what the regulations are in the US with security etc, but it would be cool to see a video of you and Jamie at the ATC where you work and explain how things work from the Controllers viewpoint. Anyways, just an idea I thought would be interesting for the non-pilot.
Glad to see you two made it home safe and sound. You can really fly in the soup! I really like watching how calm you always remain. Must be those years of flying you have under your belt. Really enjoyed this series. Now we wait for the next big adventure. Fly Safe!
Happy to hear you enjoyed it! Not sure what the next big adventure will be...there will be some normal local flying stuff as we plan our 2019 out. There should be some good stuff for the year though. :)
Thanks, as always, for letting us come along. Especially enjoyed the panel closeups this time.
Glad you enjoyed it Robert!
Good job, trip of a lifetime and we all got to go along. Thanks!
Glad ya'll enjoyed it...trying to figure what the big flying trip of 2019 will be now!
Bahamas 2018. What a trip. Thanks for sharing. Happy New Year! Looking forward to 2019’s videos
Glad you enjoyed it Donnie! Hope to have some fun trips in 2019 for ya'll!
I enjoy your videos since I don't fly anymore. I did my IFR test and checkride at MDQ. Thanks for letting us ride along.
Glad you're enjoying it James! Think you'll get back up in the skies or are you done?
310 Pilot : I am probably done, unfortunately, but it was great fun flying out of a small uncontrolled field outside the Atlanta Bravo in a rented Warrior. North Georgia is a beautiful place to fly, as I'm sure you know. I especially enjoyed learning the procedures and achieving the IFR rating. It is nice to see them applied in your videos-especially the communications part. Stay safe in the new year.
Nice flight. You carried extra speed over the threshold because of the gusty winds which makes good sense... musta seemed worse in the plane.
I do shoot for carrying half the gust factor extra...did a bit more. The GoPro's stabilization are so good that it's really hard to tell how bad it gets sometimes. :) Thank you Nick....glad you enjoyed it!
@@310Pilot and I thought it was just great flying!😉
@@310Pilot your landings do look so smooth. I listen for what the wheels tell me. 😋
LOL King Air 5 Alpha Lima with the call sign...every time! Cool video. Love what the instrument rating enables you to do. Gotta get mine. Thanks for taking us along again. Keep up the great work.
Glad you enjoyed it all! Thank you. Good luck on getting your instrument rating knocked out. It's a fun one even if you decide regular IMC flight isn't your thing.
Fantastic series... very educational! Thanks for sharing it.
You're welcome Daniel...glad you enjoyed it!
Great banter actually keeps me envoled....like Tarantino movie lol
Ha ha...minus the blood of course. :) Glad you enjoyed it Bruce!
Great job thank you for taking me along on your vacation.hats off to your copilot nice job. God bless merry Christmas and happy new year.fly safe🎊🎊🎊🎉🎉🎉
Glad you enjoyed it Tito...Happy New Year!
Wow! You can really see how easy it is to get vertigo in IFR. Whenever the camera switched from the cabin to the windscreen and props, it looked like you were banking for a second. At least until the band of blue sky appeared.
Do you get tired of hearing how awesome your vids are and how much we all appreciate you sharing with us? If so then disregard this next part of the message. WELL DONE and welcome home. Happy new year and blessings to you both. Looking forward to your next one and your next trip.
Ha ha...I enjoy the fact that all the work I put into editing the videos is well received by ya'll. The flying part is fun/easy...editing not so much. :) Glad you enjoyed it!!
@@310Pilot Hey Kevin, if it is not to forward I would love to email you some questions about your 310 and the G-5's. If not I totally understand. There are a ton of us and that could get pretty intense.
Welcome home guys! What a great trip - we appreciate you sharing it with us. 👍👍
I always love the shots with your phone! Super detailed - awesome!
You guys have yourselves a Happy, Prosperous New Year. '18 has been great - glad I found your channel. Looking forward to another year of virtual flying with you guys. 🍻🍻
Glad you found us early Smitty and thanks for all your continued support! We are looking forward to a fun 2019. Hopefully we can continue to keep it enjoyable for you!
Thank you for having me along on your vacation love the places and the flying
Glad you enjoyed it Dave!
Great flight, great trip and great video. Thanks so much for taking the time for others to enjoy.
You're welcome Maurice! Just glad others are enjoying it. :)
Great video and a great flight. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Donald...glad you enjoyed it!
That King Air pilot that didn’t say his tail number sounded exactly like the pilot who needed help landing the King Air when the pilot died in the cockpit. I recall that he only had his private pilot certificate single engine. Listen to it on UA-cam
I agree Philip...a couple other people mentioned that here as well. Good job on that guy getting that plane down safely.
By the way I had the gear horn on the Arrow do the same thing when I pulled the power back on base
Yes the king out of Louisiana. Thought the same thing. He lost a friend that day. I can only imagine how difficult that was.
Happy that y'all made it home safely, have a HAPPY NEW YEAR! Looking forward to seeing more traveling adventures.
Thank you Harry....Happy New Year!
I always enjoy watching your videos.
You're an excellent pilot and that's a very impressive instrument panel.
Thank you very much Patrick...glad you enjoyed it!
Airplane repo is here for your plane!!
You two are such a great team
Awesome...thank you Doug!
Thank you for the videos, I truly enjoy them.
Awesome...glad you're enjoying them!
Hi Guys Great series thanks for taking us with you ! welcome home no snow and 40 deg not to bad !
Glad you enjoyed it! It's cold and snow on the ground now...can't wait for spring. Nice Navion...I got to fly in one a couple times and really enjoyed it.
Great trip, thanx for sharing. Looking forward to more videos in 2019.
Glad you enjoyed it Ron...Hopefully we'll have several more in 2019 ya'll enjoy. :)
Such a fun adventure. Thanks for taking me along!
Glad you enjoyed it Chaz!
Awesome video series Kevin and Jaime! Great job on briefing the before takeoff list, very professional. The close up of the instrument panel was a nice touch. It's a shame the GCO did not work for your clearance. We've used that technology in the railroad industry for years to "tone in" the dispatchers. It really does work, even from a handset...lol. Have a safe and Happy New Year guy's! Can't wait to see what you have planned for 2019!
Glad you enjoyed it Eddie...thank you!! Happy New Year. We are starting to get some fun trips planned, should be a fun year. :)
Beautiful trip! You are encouraging me to get my license renewed and begin flying again - albeit in a bit less complex coach. I do love the electronics you have installed. One of the best setups for an older panel I've seen. Thanks for the in-flight tour of the cockpit! Cheers!
Glad you enjoyed it and are thinking about knocking the rust off! I took a break for a while before getting back in. It's like riding a bike. :) Thank you about the plane/panel as well.
I'm a fan of the old steam gauges personally but your setup is bringing me into the modern age.
I love how small the aviation community is! For @310 pilot and @JesseFlies to run into one another. @jesseflies i love your videos as well. Look forward to new posts from both of you in 2019. Thank you to both of you for sharing your passion in aviation! Happy New Year!
I agree Kyle...it's really cool. I've spoken back and forth with Premier 1 Driver, Aviation101 and Baron Pilot. It's a really friendly small world. :) Happy New Year!
Sad the trip is over Kevin. Really enjoyed travelling around with you both. As we have said, you make a great team, good for you Jaime👌. I am happy with my Jodel but envious of your hanger with those automatic doors and that smooth floor! Looking forward to the next trip. Happy New year
I was a little sad as well! Looking forward to 2019 flying adventures now! We really lucked out when that hangar came for sale with all the upgrades at a really good price. Happy New Year!
Looked like a great trip! Thanks for all the great videos. I learn something every time. A student pilot thanks you both.
Awesome Eric...glad you're enjoying them! Good luck on finishing your PPL!!
cant wait to get my pilot license!! love watching you guys!
Good luck getting that finished Ernie...glad you're enjoying the channel!!
@@310Pilot thank you my friend! i'm 54 and i've always wanted to get my pilot license. i have a cdl so i've been over the road too long. probably which is why i have'nt yet. but there's a small airport about 6-7 minutes from my house and i've been finging myself driving out there just checking out the planes coming and going. now i'm home. i'm going to take the leap. you're a great inspiration, you and your girl. hopefully i can obtain the license and get my girl up in the air!!! i'll keep you posted.
You two make a great team !
Thanks George...I agree. :)
Another great video! I was just talking to my Grandkids about how stable and unstable air effects the weather / clouds when flying. Perfect example! Glad you had a safe trip. Looking forward to your next adventure. Your channel is my 'go to' feel good channel!
That's awesome! Thank you for the comment...glad to be your feel good channel! Hope we keep that going into 2019.
Sweet vacation! I look forward taking my wife island hoping soon... We enjoy your videos.
Really glad ya'll are enjoying it! I'm sure you guys will have a blast there...Bahamas are made for GA. :)
Hi guys. Thanks again for another entertaining video. Always look forward to watching when youtube gives me the notification. That interaction with alfa lima at least lightened the mood, jamie was looking a little apprehensive in beginning. By the way let her know blue is definitly her color.
Glad you enjoyed it Knut! Think she was just slightly frustrated how long it took to get our IFR release. After that all was good. :)
Enjoyed this series very much. Take us on more vacations please!
Glad you enjoyed it! We should have a few good trips in 2019 hopefully. :) In the mean time, back to some local/normal flights.
Thanks for taking us on vacation with you, that was fun.
Glad you enjoyed it David!!
My 2 GrandNieces are now following your exploits! Lol And a big THANK YOU for taking the time to explain what instruments mean what for us non-aviators!
Awesome! I love that people are enjoying the channel and young ones are getting interested. We need more young people in aviation.
@@310Pilot They're catching up on your previous videos. Take care and thanks for the reply!
Love the radio chatter between Nashville Approach and King Air N455AL.
Me too...was cool that neither one got mad during the exchange. :)
Great video Kevin. Really enjoyed the series! Looking forward to your 2019 adventures. Cool truck! As always, thanks for sharing!
Thank you Todd...glad you enjoyed it! We are still finalizing 2019 plans but we should have some fun stuff for ya'll. I've had that truck for almost 6 years and man have we been through a lot. Even dropped that thing in the river once. :)
@@310Pilot thanks for the reply! Looking forward to whatever you guys put together. You guys are doing a great job! Not sure if hunting is Jamie's thing or not but you guys could probably do well combining flying and hunting adventures together. There are some couples doing quite well producing hunting videos and even TV shows. If you get tired of the ATC gig lol. Would love to hear about the truck in the river! I've had a few 4x4 adventures myself in the day lol.
I am so jealous of your Bahamas trip.. lol! I would love to go island hopping one day, but I don’t feel comfortable doing it in a single engine plane, and I think I should wait until I finish instrument training and get a little more experience under my belt. Thank you for the awesome videos. Would love to meet up with you guys one day if you’re around the east Texas area. I’ll buy lunch!
Thanks for the offer William...we'll keep it in mind if/when we ever end up out that way. I personally would be okay in a single if I knew the plane well (my own) but I think I'd like the instrument rating as it can get hazy/cloudy out there quickly. On a nice clear day you can see the Bahamas about the time you lose site of FL. Glad you enjoyed the videos! :)
Thanks for the virtual tour of the Bahamas. Been there with Stevo a bit, nice to take a trip with you guys.
Glad you enjoyed our version of the trip JD! Hope to have some more cool trips for 2019!
Really vids guys, my 18yr old daughter's getting her PPL 1/2 way done fun to hear the tower talk Aloha from Hawaii \III/
Glad you enjoyed it Marty....good luck on your daughter finishing up her PPL! Great time to be getting into aviation. :)
Great video, agree with Chuck got to get that auto-pilot fixed. Looked like an awesome trip hope to do the same someday. Pretty gusty conditions around here yesterday in the Memphis area got bounced around pretty good coming out of our home airport Charles Baker. Happy New Year!
Glad you enjoyed it! We are hoping to get an STEC 3100 sometime soon. Can't wait! :)
Nice flight! I fly a Cherokee 180 N72CD out of Aurora. Heard you coming back from Bessie's a while back as we were going up. A suggestion on the radio static. Spray some Corrosion X in the jack. Learned that from Neil, the airport manager from Marshall County who has since passed. He did all the emergency repairs for Beechcraft at Oshkosh. He forgot more than 99% mechanics know. It's worth a try, I did it and haven't had a problem since.
Glad you enjoyed it Gary/neighbor! I'll give that a shot. I also think I have a loose connection somewhere I'm going to get them to look at. Maybe the spray will take care of everything? Thanks!
Yay you're back home! I enjoyed every one of the videos! What a beautiful trip!
Glad you enjoyed it! Can't wait for some fun 2019 trips!!
Thanks again for making my Friday so much better. Hope you guys had a great Christmas and have a Happy New Year!
Glad you enjoyed it Mike...Happy New Year!
Awesome!!!! Thanks for letting us go on vacation with you. I think I’ll do it in 2019.
Glad you enjoyed it and I'm sure you won't regret it Christopher!
Enjoyed it very much!
Awesome...thank you Randy!
Thanks U 2. That is MAN FLYING NO AUTO P. All landing were the gear are under you are Grate some bumper than others.the Mooney in the beginning is from Mobile.HAPPY NEW YEAR✌✌👍👍👍🍻
You're welcome Jeff!! So you recognized the mooney...small world. Happy New Year!
Somebody probably already told you this, but getting the telephone hookup for getting your clearances only works if you have a quick finger. 4 clicks in just half a second means pushing the mike button just about as fast as you can say, "1,2,3,4". Then it should work every time. Great hand flying the ifr trip. Can't wait for the next video. Good stuff for an old retired pilot like me.
I edited out several attempts for brevity but that one was for sure broke. I did it at all speeds to include lightning quick. Glad you enjoyed the video and congrats on your retirement!! Do you still get to fly and if not, do you miss it?
Home sweet home.
Happy new year!!!! Keep going. The best is yet to come.
Greets fom México.
Thank you Gustavo!! ¡¡Feliz año nuevo!!
Very nice as usual. As mentioned, thanks for the instrument panel look see. Fly safe!
Glad you like how it turned out Andrew!
I am not a Pilot, and really enjoyed this video. Very informative.
Awesome...glad ya'll are enjoying it! :)
Happy New Year to your family! I enjoyed the entire series of your trip and look forward to the next one!
Thank you Don....Happy New Year!
Home safe. Well done. The King Air traffic had me grinning.
Can't believe a king air pilot who fails to use his call sign during read backs!!! Nice job on the controller educating him.
Thanks Arch...glad you enjoyed it! I'm glad that throughout that interaction they stayed professional and no one seemed to get upset. :)
I spent 26 years talking on a radio. People in "scanner land", were listening unless we were on the scrambler. In my field things sometimes went from boredom to wide open in zero seconds, so the occasional slip was gonna happen.
Details of which will have to wait until a more private form of communication is available LOL.
I doubt the King Air Pilot will slip up again like that...not for a long time.
Great video to end your trip Kevin. Thanks for taking us along on your vacation. Very good job and footage throughout. Don't be so hard on yourself on those landings. From what I could see it was still a great landing (Both you and your passenger walked away and the plane is still usable). Something my CFI told me one day when I was beating myself up. We all try for perfection every time but like you said can't win them all. You had very gusty winds. Thank you for the great videos and have a Happy New Year. My 2019 be great for you guys.
Thank you Mark....really glad you enjoyed the videos! It's funny how a lot of pilots...myself included obviously...will judge an entire 4 hour flight by the last 5 seconds on how well the flare to touch down turns out. :) Strive for perfection but accept safe. Happy New Year!!
Good job guys! Great team work! Thanks for taking us along. Have a wonderful New Year and safe travels, always.
Thank you Steve...glad you enjoyed it!
Home at last, looked like a dream vacation! Thanks for taking us along, enjoyed all the videos,the flying, navigation, communications you make it all look so easy, correction y’all make it look so easy. Happy New Year!
Glad you enjoyed it Ken...it was a dream vacation! Like always, too short. :) Happy New Year!
Looked like a great landing to me👍hey.... Thanks for taking the time to show the gauges as with someone that does not fly scale aircraft I found that very interesting.
Glad you two are home. This non-pilot jet mech not a COM/NAV guy really appreciates the tour of those four displays on the center panel :-) Sounded like Jaimie dropped a gift hint for a pair of Aviator sunglasses! Always enjoy the videos and your in-depth commentary. Happy New Year.
She did drop a hint and I failed at Christmas on not getting them. Oh well...that gives me something else to get soon. Happy New Year and glad you enjoyed it!
Nice! Followed the entire trip, thanks for taking us along.
Awesome...glad you enjoyed it!
Nice video. Thanks for taking us with you!
You're welcome...glad you enjoyed it!
Gusting in ground effect is always fun. I thought your landing very good. All things considered. Better ten knots to fast, than ten knots to slow, especially with gust at 25. Thank you for sharing.
I agree with better fast than slow with the gusting going on and that's what I always do. Glad you thought it wasn't too bad. :) Just finished editing the next 2 videos and while they aren't anything special, the landings were greasers. :)
Quite a change in conditions from departure to destination, handled professionally as always :) I agree about the co-pilot doing an excellent job, some funny radio comms on this flight :D I was cycling in patchy fog recently, I wished I had some wings to lift me out of it but I wouldn't have had the speed to get much lift ;) Another great video, I wish you both all the best for the coming year! Happy flying :)
Glad you enjoyed it Rab! Love having my co-pilot with me for times like these. :) Happy New Year and here's to more flying adventures for ya'll in 2019.
Aw, you guys had to put your coats on! Thanks for taking us with you on vacation!
Glad you enjoyed it Roger! Looking forward to warm/non coat weather again. :)
Many thanks for bringing your U tubers along on a totally awesome Bahamas adventure! Congrats on completing your mission. Happy New Year and looking forward to more amazing 2019 adventures :)
Glad you enjoyed the trip! We should have lot's more fun stuff for 2019! For now, back to our regular flying. :)
Ok, you can go back to the Bahamas now. I'm ready for another trip already. Great series. I agree with Charles Howell, time to get that AP fixed.
I can't wait to get back down there Michael. Not sure when that will be right now. The AP is on the short list. I'm getting a new heater right now and then shoulder harnesses are next. Then it will be time for AP and new Radar display. :)
Thanks for sharing, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you both.
You're welcome...Happy New Year!
Very nice video and flight !
Glad you enjoyed it Moyses!
Yeh, auto pilot would be a good next step. And some aviators for Jamie. Visor behaved during your fun landing too. Happy New Year and look forward to new/fun 2019 ride alongs. I miss my Navajo. Thanks for allowing us to ride along.
Glad you enjoyed it! I'm having the heater replaced right now and we have a few other plans for the next annual coming up. Going to re-do the baffles on both engines and install BAS shoulder harnesses and hopefully Rosen sun visors. Then it's time to figure out autopilot's. I bet you do...Navajo's are awesome planes.
Thanks so much for posting your final leg to Aurora Municipal and home! Enjoyed the instrument information on your plane. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you both and the kids! Looking forward to your sharing your next adventure.
Glad you enjoyed it Don...Happy New Year!
Kevin, I hope you know(I'm sure you do) how lucky you are to have the wife that you have. Many general aviation guys would love to have the support that you have. You guys make a good team. Stay Professional like you are!
Thank you Scott!! I fully understand how lucky I am...ain't letting her go! :)
Excellent trip! Thanks for all the great videos in 2018! Have a happy new year and we'll see you in 2019!
Glad you enjoyed it all!! I thinking 2019 will be even better. :)
First flight on N310TL today. Amazing plane. Thanks Kevin for the inspiration.
Awesome...excited for you Mark!! Congrats on the bird...can't wait to see her one day.
Great trip - start to finish. Thanks for letting me tag along.
Glad you enjoyed it all! :)
A great series of videos, Kevin and Jaime! You two working together are a joy to watch! Will be waiting on the next one!
Awesome...thank you for the feedback and glad you're enjoying it!
Nice Vacation! Enjoyed watching all of the videos. Good Luck in the Bowl Game. Roll Tide...
Glad you enjoyed them Jay! I don't think there is a team in the final 4 that can beat ya'll. Go Dawgs!
