      Those are Sargasso Weed patches. A sailor's nightmare. Best to try to avoid them if you can! You have to sail through them if they aren't too thick, if you run your engines while going through them they get sucked into the intakes and clog them up! Ditto on the Watermaker if you're lucky enough to have one.

Flew four engine equipment on long overwater segments and always had an up to date ETP.

    Oh my Lord guys! That was incredible and so lucky! Even the beginning of a propeller failure is almost guaranteed to be an absolute ditch! I grew up with my father working on Old warbirds I got to go up in a two-seat version of a P-38 Lightning! And just as we were coming around to make our approach for landing the left propeller part of the aircraft! Mind you I was 12 years old! The pilot landed safely safely but it was the scariest ride I've ever had! Parts of the propeller came to the fuselage between me and the pilot went through the canopy and destroyed most of the radio network! We had to land blind. No radio no communication just helped the god somebody didn't run into us! Propeller failures are absolutely frightening whether it's a twin-engine or single-engine especially over the ocean in the light aircraft I salute you guys kiss the ground please

      I did a search for his tail number and the aircraft has been flying around California for the last several months at least. So the aircraft is ok anyway. I wish he'd finish the videos, I was enjoying 'em.

    Thanks for a very interesting video. Curious about one thing. Was there a reason why you didn't consider going to Fernando de Noronha from Cape Verde instead of Barbados? It appears to be about 800 nm closer. A longer journey overall but a lot less time over water.

      There are several restrictions about flying to Noronha, the plane staying overnight is not allowed, for example
