    Hello Pete love your content. I really enjoy watching and learning about the pilot life. I am a dispatcher at Atlas Air so it’s nice to see the other side of things. I about fell out my chair when you showed up at governors Island. I grew up there as a kid when it was a Coast Guard base. My dad was stationed there in the Coast Guard and flew out of Floyd Bennett field. Love seeing that again and you’re right amazing views! Keep up the great work!!

    I love watching your videos and getting to learn about your experiences!! I used to want to be a pilot or be in the air force more than anything so once I learned that you can do those things if you have adhd (I can't function off the meds like they require) I was so gutted 😭I am sort of living my dream through your videos at this point, so I really appreciate the interesting content. Stay safe out there! 🙌

    The most stressful part of flying for me is getting the medical done since I’m on a Special Issuance for Type 1 diabetes. Only 24 but have to renew every 6 months. Also, the urine test looks for protein which could signify kidney damage, it also is looking for sugar in the urine which would indicate diabetes.

    Hey could you explain in a bit about how a private pilot “create” the flight plan ? Like, if i want to fly from my hometown Orlando to San Francisco. What is the procedure? What’s the procedure about pay the all airport fees and fuel?

    • @pilotpetefly
      @pilotpetefly  2 місяці тому +1

      There’s a lot of ways. Too many to discuss in a comment. VFR, IFR? You pay the fees, the airport direct bills you and mails you the bill

    Jumpseated on 67 a month a go and wish i would have asked this ? But i noticed you don’t fly the morning flights very much so I was wondering how difficult is it to bid the afternoon vs the morning flights because it seems like the seniority that flies different flights seems to have a variety.

    • @pilotpetefly
      @pilotpetefly  2 місяці тому +1

      Luckily I am able to hold the day flying. It’s not “hard” it’s just whatever is available at your seniority. As of now, I can hold it

    So, Pete, if you would have to reject a take-off, thrust levers to idle, speed breaks up, but what would initiate the plane to auto-break in the RTO position? Is there a button to push?

    • @pilotpetefly
      @pilotpetefly  2 місяці тому +1

      They are automatically activated, about 80 knots as soon as the Thrust levers idle and speed brake deployed

      FAA/company policy does not allow it for part 121 ops 99% of the time sadly. In very rare instances they will allow it but from what I've seen from other pilots who go through the process even if they're granted permission (which is rare) its a hassle lol.
