    I have seen comments on other channels were people say Idaho flying videos get old. But as for me, a tailwheel airplane landing at Johnson Creek NEVER gets old. I could watch it a thousand times!😀

    Great to see you out and about again Todd.
    That climb out was super impressive, and spectacular to watch. I can just imagine all the folks back on the strip watching as you climb, and the deliberation as to whether or not you were going to make it over or bank away. Awesome show 👍

    Looks like an M1 Garand rifle on your wall, I have one of those (30-06) as well. Shot 3 Moose and countless Elk with it over the years, a few feet as well. I got mine in 1986.

    Keep the videos coming. Its a constant inspiration to me and so many others trying to get their own backcountry airplane project started. U guys out west are so lucky to have all that public land to play on. That is a strange concept to people like me in Tennessee. Anyway, just so ya know, the scenery in your videos will never get old. Amazing!

    By the way, that turning tool in the Ranger Station is a small, manual lathe, I believe. Has a rest for the chisel/tool.

    Hey Todd! SO good to watch you fly again my brother. After spending the last year and a half on a project in one of those countries where UA-cam and people like you are subversives trying to convince others they can have their own personal freedom, it was awesome to watch somebody expressing his own personal freedom!
    I’ve got a bunch of video I’m behind on, but I am so looking forward to catching up with the guy that SHOULD be the biggest aviation channel on UA-cam…

    Thanks making and sharing another great video! With the approach and TO at Wilson being blind along the river and around the ridge (the heli snuck up on you), how do you ensure there's no conflict between arriving and departing AC? Also, what was your airspeed margin as you climbed straight over the ridge after TO? That seemed a bit scary to me. Stay safe and thanks again!!

    • @GravityKnightFlying
      @GravityKnightFlying  10 місяців тому +1

      Radio is the best tool, but definitely not a guarantee there with the canyon and terrain (and assuming people are talking and on the right freq etc.) I think I crossed the ridge at 53-55mph indicated. So i had a little margin but not a ton being squared up to it, last few seconds are pretty critical it doesn’t quit! Thanks!!

    G,day from Sydney Australia.
    Fantastic video production, thank you. Just thinking... That departure off the grass runway: were you at maximum rate of climb?
    * air temperature
    * density altitude
    Always interested in seeing more of your filming.

      It’s almost exclusively 122.9 in the backcountry. One of those unwritten, but kind of official, but not official things 😆
