I need your opinions! Do you guys like these vlog style videos like this with more of the lifestyle and talking involved or should I stick with the short flying edits? Comment below.
Your vlog videos are really great, I can't wait watching another one. In fact, both kinds are really amazing. I find it really good that you're trying something new and at this point, you're doing so well that it looks like you've been doing that your whole life. :)
Trent Palmer I found you via Reddit. What great production. I’ll be checking out you previous vids. I’m 5hrs into my PPL and thanks to you and Ty, I’m thinking of a Just Aircraft down the road. I look forward to seeing more from you. Keep it up.
Dude you are living my dream right now. I am currently finishing up my aerospace engineering degree at calpoly but as soon as I graduate I want to live like this
Such a cool video. The vlog style adds character and story to what could just be another flying video. UA-cam needs more off airport videos like yours!
Hey Trent !i really enjoy your vids. The fact that you all seem like such nice young guys and NO foul language. Kudos. You have a good mix of vlog and flight time right now however having said that I could watch you guys doing your backcountry low level flying and crazy landings all day! Great work! Clear skies/safe landings
Right on Trent I love the new vlog! Yeah I remember flying with you Quinn and Christensen that day we discovered "tower saddle" and a few other first timers that day I think we all got to name one! You keep making videos like this Trent you'll wright your own ticket! Look forward to flying with you again soon!
New pilot in Ohio, (15 hrs in) i am enjoying your videos. I found your channel "researching" the kitfox. 👍really sweet little plane. I do love that just highlander. Keep up the nice flying vlogs.
I like your putting the flights in context like this. You are really making me want to fly like this. I’m a 57 yr old corporate jet pilot (CJ2) but early on flew hang gliders and a bit in my brother’s Kolb Ultrastar. Just not quite able to swing it financially, went thru some lean times in aviation and still feelin’ it. Appreciate scratching this itch vicariously through your excellent vlogs. Wife even likes them.
I really loved seeing you enjoy your flying....running the canyon, yanking and banking, landing just about anywhere. The Wild West....America.....Freedom! Does not get much better than that. That’s fun stuff right there!
I keep coming back to this video for some reason. It always makes me laugh and every single bit of this video as well as all of the others is quality that isn't always easy to find.
Your videos are spectacular. You have set the bar so high it would be increasingly challenging to top the next one. I look forward them. I saw an amazing aerial photo of Dana plateau, Yosemite just today and immediately thought of you. That would make one heck a landing and backdrop. Looking forward to a video from that location eh ? All the best and safe travels.
its a small world. My grandparents lived in Susanville and I spent the summers there when I was a child. I love your vids .the flying and scenery is epic !
I'm super hooked on your videos. Just started watching about two weeks ago now I'm marathoning through them! I never knew about this type of flying. Now I'm looking into flight school just so I can get a plane and do this. About to text our mutual friend Tommy Suell about the best flight school to go to here in Vegas.
Love it ... great trips all over .. interesting problems and team fixes. Fabulous sights with personal touch. Thanks Trent I would trade my car for a Wilga any day.
Great Vlog!!! Man I can't wait to go flying with you again!!! Love the Flying Coyboys sticker!!! Surely the namer of Tower Saddle could get one ha ha!!!
Trent, like your use of Sony action cams. I had a couple mounted to my RC aircraft and the footage was fantastic. I live in Salt Lake area and recognized your West Desert Air Park footage with Draco. Randy P was trying to talk me into a Rans tail dragger. Being a type 1 diabetic I figured that could spell the end of me so I passed on flight training. An aircraft I really like is the Aerotrek 220 very similar to your Kitfox. I am successfully retired and think flying would be an unacceptable expense. Yes, I could afford it but my pockets are not bottomless. I will enjoy watching you.
We sure liked that one Trent! Nice story telling, not taking yourself to seriously... and good camera work. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work!
New sub! I LIKED the left wing wide angle cam. I could watch that for hours. More of that please. Diving into your sight in search for more of that now. Cheers!
Your videos are great dude! I owned and flew a Phantom UL with a Rotax 503 for about eight years. Much of out flying was on some of the dry lakes around 29 Palm Joshua Tree Ca area. We loved to do very much like you are doing. Awesome times! Please be leary of canyons. I learned about the treacherous winds in them back in my Hang Gliding days. A few years back a Dr and his friend flew up a box canyon near palm springs that they were not able to turn around in or climb out of. That was in a GA plane.
That's so awesome. I just recently found this channel and seeing my city's name was awesome! I live in truckee! Pretty cool that you're so close. Good videos and good quality. Have a good one man keep flying!
I saw you guys the other day at the Reno Stead airport!!! I am on a bell 407 Helicopter crew fighting fires. We just flew home to swan valley idaho today. You guys would have a blast flying here.
A word of caution Trent. I had an experimental single-engine open cockpit aircraft I flew out of Stead for 10 yrs/1,000 hrs. I only landed on dry lakes, but flew a lot of low level. One January day I was out over the Petersen Range to the NW of Stead. I saw some deer and went down on the SW side of the range, with a NE 10kt wind or so. I was being very careful since I knew I was downwind of the ridge. I remember turning into the mountain about a quarter of a mile or so from the ridge ... thinking about the wind. All I can remember next is waking up on the ground standing next to my plane stuffed into the ground. I then walked out down to I-395 with no memory until I reached the deer fence. I'd been cruising about 30mph above my stall speed. Obviously not enough. In my 10 yrs of flying I'd never experienced anything that would have caused this. Just an FYI watching this video with your off-airport approach-to=landing downwind. It's like playing Russian Roulette.
I'm up in Klamath falls about to finish my kitfox 5. Your videos inspire me and others to keep going. I hope to meet some day and learn a little more about videos. I made a video about a flight to Oshkosh from Klamath in a 150. Thanks for doing all you do for us.
Awesome! Mine is a 5 as well! And definitely look forward to meeting you some day. You should consider coming out to the High Sierra Fly In, it’s October 19-22nd at the lake bed we met at in this video. It’s probably the best flying event out there.
I like that Highlander the more I look at it. Nice paint as well. You can never go wrong with red and black. Real flaps and ailerons, yeah baby. Going to do a little more checking, as long as I can get the normal gear with some 800's on there. Not into the cartoon tires.
Your videos are awesome. My dad was pilot that flew air ambulance and I've done some flying but don't have my pilot's license. I'm at above-knee amputee not that that could completely stop me it's more like the cash. Keep the videos up as they are awesome. I wish there was some better music but it's not that bad. Stay safe
Greatly enjoy your videos. I've seen as many as I have been able to find and hope you continue to crank them out. I hope you take to heart all the expressions of concern from your viewer comments, and I will add this one: Please be careful when you're "wheeling" the surface of streams and lakes. I'd hate for you or your friends to make a slight mistake that would cause any kind of mishap. You think it's fun. Probably is. Just be careful.
Thanks Trent for this video you said you're going to Reno I love Reno Air Races I watch them every year on UA-cam I'm never there because I'm living in Branson Missouri don't have no time to get down there and go to Reno so I watch on UA-cam thank you Trent
Hey, Trent, I found your Dead Cow Flat fly-in location on my Nevada DeLorme Atlas from two clues: That Susanville was your nearest refueling option in this video, and the guy chiding the 2017 High Sierra STOL organizers for not noting the turn onto Flanigan Road in that video. Bingo!
Yep, but not nearly as much fun for this old navy navigator and map lover as figuring it out on my own. Too much of the modern population is completely map-illiterate and will be completely lost without GPS. That said, your digital aviation map displays must be a lot easier than managing a big paper map in a cockpit while you try to fly!
I love your videos and your Vlog! Keep up the great job!! I think most people on You Tube are to critical no matter the content or videos. I think there are to many arm chair Quarterbacks on You Tube. Just keep doing what your doing!!
Nice prop! I happen to know Lonnie prince personally, and when I first bought my kitfox and told him about it, his first response was "part it out." XD. Sometimes I feel like he was right. Either way, a Prince prop is the best prop in the world!
I need your opinions! Do you guys like these vlog style videos like this with more of the lifestyle and talking involved or should I stick with the short flying edits? Comment below.
Your vlog videos are really great, I can't wait watching another one. In fact, both kinds are really amazing. I find it really good that you're trying something new and at this point, you're doing so well that it looks like you've been doing that your whole life. :)
Just found your vids via your Flite Test interview. I love your videos. Makes me want to get a plane myself.
Trent Palmer I found you via Reddit. What great production. I’ll be checking out you previous vids.
I’m 5hrs into my PPL and thanks to you and Ty, I’m thinking of a Just Aircraft down the road.
I look forward to seeing more from you. Keep it up.
These vids are awesome.
Loved it! Thanks for sharing your trip! Too cool!
LOVE IT DUDE! more of this please! -Alex
Stoked you liked it! I am definitely going to try to do more.
Gottem
Hello FT
I enjoy the longer blogs. I’m a pilot, though not a bush pilot. I could watch these for hours. Scenery and drone work are impressive.
Dude you are living my dream right now. I am currently finishing up my aerospace engineering degree at calpoly but as soon as I graduate I want to live like this
Just saw this comment now. I’m currently a sophomore at ERAU studying Aerospace Engineer.
Awesome video. Normally can't make it through a 15 minute vlog, but this video was great. Awesome flying.
I’m the same way, my attention span is limited at about 5min but these blogs have too much to squeeze down that short. Glad you enjoyed it!
Change NOTHING. Pure gold.
Every group of friends needs a Ty
Awesome vid man. Making me start looking at Kit Fox prices, and wishing I was back on the west for flying. Looking forward to more from ya!
Such a cool video. The vlog style adds character and story to what could just be another flying video. UA-cam needs more off airport videos like yours!
oh wow Trent - that wheel dancing (@around 12min) - was SOOOOO cool! gave me such a laugh of joy watching you do that! keep hootin' Guy! cheers
Hey Trent !i really enjoy your vids. The fact that you all seem like such nice young guys and NO foul language. Kudos. You have a good mix of vlog and flight time right now however having said that I could watch you guys doing your backcountry low level flying and crazy landings all day! Great work! Clear skies/safe landings
Okay, so this might be my favourite bush flying video ever. I could watch this stuff all day every day.
Right on Trent I love the new vlog! Yeah I remember flying with you Quinn and Christensen that day we discovered "tower saddle" and a few other first timers that day I think we all got to name one! You keep making videos like this Trent you'll wright your own ticket! Look forward to flying with you again soon!
New pilot in Ohio, (15 hrs in) i am enjoying your videos. I found your channel "researching" the kitfox. 👍really sweet little plane. I do love that just highlander. Keep up the nice flying vlogs.
Awesome, I wish I would have got into flying at that young of an age! Thanks man, will do
I like your putting the flights in context like this.
You are really making me want to fly like this. I’m a 57 yr old corporate jet pilot (CJ2) but early on flew hang gliders and a bit in my brother’s Kolb Ultrastar. Just not quite able to swing it financially, went thru some lean times in aviation and still feelin’ it.
Appreciate scratching this itch vicariously through your excellent vlogs. Wife even likes them.
I just enjoy seeing these go carts of the skies. Beautiful how they don't need much to land or take off. Sweet.
I really loved seeing you enjoy your flying....running the canyon, yanking and banking, landing just about anywhere. The Wild West....America.....Freedom! Does not get much better than that. That’s fun stuff right there!
I keep coming back to this video for some reason. It always makes me laugh and every single bit of this video as well as all of the others is quality that isn't always easy to find.
Glad you enjoy it Doug!
I will literally live my life vicariously through your videos.
I'm getting a PPL. It's a done deal.
Been watching these old videos again and really enjoying them alot.
I liked it, and would like to see others every so often. The flying videos are your bread and butter.
You guys had a blast..taking turns there..and those short landings!! Whaaat? Great stuff
That was awesome. I wish I could have been a ride along. The canyon runs were amazing to watch.
Man, thanks for all this! I´m likke sitting here all up in Norway, not flying atm, but enjoying every moment of this joyriding of yours. Keep it up!
I'm not a pilot but your aircraft is beautiful. Your visibility must be awesome
Thanks! And yeah, the in flight visibility of the Kitfox is pretty incredible
Awesome footage, awesome little planes, I can't believe how little runway they need to land and takeoff.
Some mad skills there mate!! Loved the video and it's great to hang with your buddies too!!
Great Videos...I like this style and your camera work is awesome. Keep it up
Your videos are spectacular. You have set the bar so high it would be increasingly challenging to top the next one. I look forward them. I saw an amazing aerial photo of Dana plateau, Yosemite just today and immediately thought of you. That would make one heck a landing and backdrop. Looking forward to a video from that location eh ? All the best and safe travels.
Great video you guys are having way to much fun.
its a small world. My grandparents lived in Susanville and I spent the summers there when I was a child. I love your vids .the flying and scenery is epic !
Love the flying around 12:00. Good work Trent!
Awesome dude, great flying man.
I'm super hooked on your videos. Just started watching about two weeks ago now I'm marathoning through them! I never knew about this type of flying. Now I'm looking into flight school just so I can get a plane and do this. About to text our mutual friend Tommy Suell about the best flight school to go to here in Vegas.
Love it man. I haven’t been able to fly in years and miss it. Watching these is an awesome ride.
that is amazing. this is what flying is meant to be. Awesome
Love it ... great trips all over .. interesting problems and team fixes. Fabulous sights with personal touch.
Thanks Trent
I would trade my car for a Wilga any day.
Both are awesome! It’s great to get more of an idea of the actual process! The lost Ty bit was weird though..
Great Vlog!!! Man I can't wait to go flying with you again!!! Love the Flying Coyboys sticker!!! Surely the namer of Tower Saddle could get one ha ha!!!
I’d say you’ve definitely earned one! You’ll have to see if you can get one from Cory Robin at HSF
Smells so good flying into that airport. Beautiful high country!
Trent, like your use of Sony action cams. I had a couple mounted to my RC aircraft and the footage was fantastic.
I live in Salt Lake area and recognized your West Desert Air Park footage with Draco. Randy P was trying to talk me into a Rans
tail dragger. Being a type 1 diabetic I figured that could spell the end of me so I passed on flight training. An aircraft I really like is the Aerotrek 220 very similar to your Kitfox.
I am successfully retired and think flying would be an unacceptable expense. Yes, I could afford it but my pockets are not bottomless. I will enjoy watching you.
We sure liked that one Trent! Nice story telling, not taking yourself to seriously... and good camera work. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work!
Thanks Fred! I'll try to do more of these
New sub! I LIKED the left wing wide angle cam. I could watch that for hours. More of that please. Diving into your sight in search for more of that now. Cheers!

I owned and flew a Phantom UL with a Rotax 503 for about eight years.

Awesome times!
Please be leary of canyons. I learned about the treacherous winds in them back in my Hang Gliding days.
A few years back a Dr and his friend flew up a box canyon near palm springs that they were not able to turn around in or climb out of. That was in a GA plane.
Your videos are very cathartic. Nice job.
Looks amazing. Can't wait to get into flying.
Flying the canyon is the best section of all your videos.
Your freedomfox looks like an all-american Bomb Pop. I freakin love it!
That's so awesome. I just recently found this channel and seeing my city's name was awesome! I live in truckee! Pretty cool that you're so close. Good videos and good quality. Have a good one man keep flying!
hey man i usually think aviation vloggers are cringey af, your video was one of the few i enjoyed. thanks for putting this up. looks like a lot of fun
Love this Trent! I grew up in Sparks and spent a lot of time in the desert around the area, especially Pyramid Lake.
I love these videos!
Thanks for sharing your experience.
I agree with the other comments, I loved the canyon flying! I think this is what every kid dreams of when they think of flying.
Makes me want to get back into flying and come hang with you for the day. Awesome stuff man
I saw you guys the other day at the Reno Stead airport!!! I am on a bell 407 Helicopter crew fighting fires. We just flew home to swan valley idaho today. You guys would have a blast flying here.
Far too much AWESOME............thanks guys

litteraly the best video i've seen today! you guys are having way to much fun!
Awesome, glad you enjoyed it!
This video had beautiful scenery!!! Keep it up fellas!!!
The tire touches at 12:00 were sick! Awesome!
I'm up in Klamath falls about to finish my kitfox 5. Your videos inspire me and others to keep going. I hope to meet some day and learn a little more about videos. I made a video about a flight to Oshkosh from Klamath in a 150. Thanks for doing all you do for us.
Awesome! Mine is a 5 as well! And definitely look forward to meeting you some day. You should consider coming out to the High Sierra Fly In, it’s October 19-22nd at the lake bed we met at in this video. It’s probably the best flying event out there.
The landing dance from one wheel to the other was amazing.
This was a very nearly perfect UA-cam video. Kept me entertained and interested the full 15:17. Thanks Trent!
You guys are making me want to build a Kitfox or a Highlander!
Those shots over the the Little Truckee pretty much have me sold on aviation.
Sweet paint job on that Highlander. 😆👍
Great filming and editing... Super job !
These remind me of all those Warren Miller ski films I used to watch in my youth. Nice!
the energy he had in this video was great. i haven’t seen that side of him before.
Trent, do you ever look back at these early videos and see how far you've come in your skills as a Pilot and Vlogger. I still enjoy em all!
I just love how the hanger doors open!
Actually living in Susanville once upon a time, and seeing yall visit it brings back so many memories. Great video man hope to see more like it
Awesome video man, love it!
Fantastic...what fun!!!!
That canyon flying WAS. SO. COOL.
I dig this style. Keep em coming!
I like that Highlander the more I look at it. Nice paint as well. You can never go wrong with red and black. Real flaps and ailerons, yeah baby. Going to do a little more checking, as long as I can get the normal gear with some 800's on there. Not into the cartoon tires.
Your videos are awesome. My dad was pilot that flew air ambulance and I've done some flying but don't have my pilot's license. I'm at above-knee amputee not that that could completely stop me it's more like the cash. Keep the videos up as they are awesome. I wish there was some better music but it's not that bad. Stay safe
So so cool! Love it
That was lots of fun!
Damn man. As far as I can tell you guys are living the dream.
Greatly enjoy your videos. I've seen as many as I have been able to find and hope you continue to crank them out. I hope you take to heart all the expressions of concern from your viewer comments, and I will add this one: Please be careful when you're "wheeling" the surface of streams and lakes. I'd hate for you or your friends to make a slight mistake that would cause any kind of mishap. You think it's fun. Probably is. Just be careful.
This makes me want a Kitfox so much. Probably my dream plane.
I really like those short take offs and landings !
Thanks Trent for this video you said you're going to Reno I love Reno Air Races I watch them every year on UA-cam I'm never there because I'm living in Branson Missouri don't have no time to get down there and go to Reno so I watch on UA-cam thank you Trent
I love the music style videos, but this definitely a vlog I would follow. Keep up the awesome work! From a fellow rotax flyer
Awesome, I most likely will keep doing some of both, thanks man
4:12 'Sick drift bruh'
That was actually 4:10 but whatever.
You need wayyyyyyyyy more subscribers!!! This stuff is s cool and good d d quality as well!
Haha, thanks man!
Awesome video man! Keep 'em coming.
Thanks Warren! Keep yours coming as well
Dude!!! This kicks the llamas ass! MORE MORE MORE!!!
More fun then a human should be allowed. Looking forward to seeing more. Can't help filling bad for Justin, but I'm sure he'll find another one.
Thanks! And yeah, he'll find another I am sure
So jealous Trent, rotary pilot from the UK here, itching to get into this bush plane malarky. .might have to emigrate.. ;)
That looks like the most fun you are legally allowed to have with pants on.
Hey, Trent, I found your Dead Cow Flat fly-in location on my Nevada DeLorme Atlas from two clues: That Susanville was your nearest refueling option in this video, and the guy chiding the 2017 High Sierra STOL organizers for not noting the turn onto Flanigan Road in that video. Bingo!
Awesome! That’s some good investigating! You could have just gone to stoldrag.com and got the gps cords though 😜
Yep, but not nearly as much fun for this old navy navigator and map lover as figuring it out on my own. Too much of the modern population is completely map-illiterate and will be completely lost without GPS. That said, your digital aviation map displays must be a lot easier than managing a big paper map in a cockpit while you try to fly!
I love your videos and your Vlog! Keep up the great job!! I think most people on You Tube are to critical no matter the content or videos. I think there are to many arm chair Quarterbacks on You Tube. Just keep doing what your doing!!

Thanks man!
Nice prop! I happen to know Lonnie prince personally, and when I first bought my kitfox and told him about it, his first response was "part it out." XD. Sometimes I feel like he was right. Either way, a Prince prop is the best prop in the world!
Man that is fun. I wish... I wish.... That is total freedom.
When you guys were running along that river it felt like a dog fight. I wonder if you could hook up some laser tag guns and play laser tag in planes
Sounds incredibly safe lol
FAA might think that’s a bad idea
