#Cessna #flying #aviation grass
Please more raw footage! Doesn't get any better than than!
yes,raw footage is the best way to do these videos
i can almost pretend i have the 400 grand it would take to have my own cessna lol... someday i will fly an airplane, someday..
@@elijahmasquelier1238 there are some really cool aircraft nowadays but i am super attracted to the cessna 172 skyhawk
@@teaganlambert9330 They aren't the best at anything in particular, except being the all around best airplane.

I love flying VFR.
"Where you heading?"
"Oh, that way...ish"
Very good
This is the content I subscribed for, and the content I still sub for to this day. I get that you have a passion for the film making thing, and more power to you. There's plenty of room for both. As long as the nerds like me get a nice 30-60 minute raw flight video with lots of technical commentary and radio comms every once in a while, I'll be watching! Still the best GA channel out there.
DrShrimpy agrees
very good from a Black Velvet Video Pilot !!! FS2004
couldn't agree more...this video touched all the bases I needed to refresh my mind, finish my lessons, after a year off. Totally to the point and your experience in the plane was so helpful for me to relate all I've learned thus far.
Full length all day I agree. I like to see and hear everything of the flights. As in booking an intro this summer to start my path to be a privet pilot then commercial
Not even close to raw footage - just good documentary style production that is packed with value. Great editing, good narration and much more interesting than watching Netflix!
Amen!
I love your videos man! Your narration of your techniques is what makes the videos really enjoyable, as well as the long cuts and great quality recording.
I am so inspired by you. Can you please use the fpv cam on your headset more often? I loved the feel of being in the cockpit that way.
Yes i felt im the pilot lol
@@agujadriver7209 i feel ya
As a student pilot who is currently in the middle of the cross country phase, this video was incredibly useful and interesting! Love seeing the full flights. Great work as always.
It will be great if you had a chest mount so we can see the instruments but still love the POV view
Aviator Gamer Jose Beat me to it haha (chest cam)
Who knew solo pattern work could be so entertaining! ;)

Beso
Started flying a few years ago, but due to injury, haven't been back on the stick for a year. You're tugging at my enthusiasm dude! Can't wait to get back in the air and try and bust through the uncomfortable feeling I still have flying solo.
Man you Texans are lucky to even be able to fly off the grass back up north we’d get stuck in the mud
Yeah here in Michigan it’s rained just about every day for a month
More full length videos, please!!! Great video....good soft field...what about lifting your flaps after you've slowed down a bit on landing, that should put more weight on your mains, slowing you down more?
I C A N N O T W A IT to go flying this summer it's been 3 freaking years and I've been dying to get back in the air
It's such a great feeling getting back into the air after a break! =) Hope you'll have lots of fun!
Ha! The video next up in the queue after Josh’s was a doctor showing a maneuver how to self treat/alleviate vertigo! Nevertheless, another great video, Josh!
I really enjoy the raw footage and back to basics flying skills. Keep up the great work....
Great video keep being you
Nice, but I kept worrying about landing traffic on Rwy 17 from your left as you crossed that runway. Great job!
Really like the head camera view and also very much appreciate your talking through what you are doing. Thank you for a great video. Looks like a ton of fun!
QuickQ: Why do you count to 3 after moving the flap lever? I assume you're verifying that the flaps went down after counting to 3, but why count when you could just look outside at the flaps moving?
They're manual electronic. He holds down the lever and counts to 3, which should be about 10 degrees. It's not like the automatic flaps, where you just move the lever to 10, 20, or 30.
The shout out over the radio was very cool🤓
I loved that!
TheShOutOverTheRadioWasVeryCool
"That way................ ish" 😂
"ThatWay............ish'😂
Grass makes the best landing surface. Even in my Mooney, I enjoy landing on grass strips. Keep in mind though, when you transition from grass to hard surface, cross it at a 45 degree angle, not perpendicular. It keeps the porpoising down if/when there is a dip right before the pavement.
loose the noggin cam...!! I now have PTSD!!!
IooseThenogginCam!...!!
InowhavePYSD!!!
Gotta say, much prefer the fixed camera - the motion of the headcam is too much! Have you thought on trying a 360 video inside the cockpit? That would be really cool - Volvo Trucks do this with some of their clips.
Didn't get a chance to chime in earlier, I'm not sure I like the headcam, there's a lot of movement there. Much prefer the fixed camera angles, with occasional headcam instead of it being the main shot.
I learned my lesson on a sandy grass strip. I stopped and had to dig out one of my 172 tires.
Good video josh keep the content up
It is interesting that what he considered a good grass landing is not what I do. From what I can tell, no matter how many thousands of feet of runway he consumes, the landing is only judged on the basis of how gently he touches down. I suppose that's one way to rate a good landing. But for me, who pretty much only cares about bush flying/landings/takeoffs, what matters most by far is how short is the landing. And short doesn't start where tires first touch the ground, but at the very first place your tires CAN touch the ground. Almost always the best/shortest landing involves a firm touchdown, definitely not a lightest-possible touchdown.
Sure, not so hard a touchdown that you [risk] breaking anything ... because then the airplane will bounce, which lengthens the landing. A nice firm touchdown is part of what assures the airplane sticks to the ground, increases drag and friction between tires and grass/dirt/etc, and assures the airplane doesn't lift off again in ground effect (which is aided by partial or complete elimination of flaps immediately at/after touchdown). I always laugh at the landings of the youtube video guy who has a bonanza (forget his name), because he often floats forever during his attempt to touch the ground so gently his tires don't flex. Very different from me and many other "bush pilots".
At least the pilot in this video recognizes he was carrying far too much speed into the landing, so good for him.
max bootstrap You might be confusing short field with soft field. Josh had plenty of runway, so his soft field technique seems spot on.
Head cam is cool/fun, but I find it hard to watch with the movement. I spent a lot of this video just having it playing on my computer screen and browsing stuff on my phone.
Loved this kind of videos! For us private pilots it is very informative and instructional. Nice work!
Yeah I like the head cam. Josh you are a awesome pilot, I like how talk though exactly what you're doing and why
Have to agree head cam is hard to watch. But it did show that your interior door frames need a little TLC (clean/sand/paint). A great future shop maintenance video for those of us with OCD tendencies about things we play with! Look forward to seeing the process and final end result. Other than the head cam, great content.
Thanks for the video. I wonder if you have ever read Vietnam above the tree tops, by Brian Flanagan. He flew the Cessna 0-1s. He writes about take off and landing's on in improved fields. Once again thanks for the videos. Love em.
I know the head cam got the most votes but that's so much movement. I can hardly handle watching it. lol.
Totally agree. He should remember that the audience will be distracted in viewing. Slowing the head movement will improve it. Looks like it's his first time doing it. He'll improve as he gets more experience. I am amazed at how good he is.
Please loose the head cam, it made me loose my cookies.
@@corvairchris82 I concur, too much head movement. Other than that, it was a very good video.
@@ericm8378 Yes, the continuous head movement gives me vertigo on full-screen viewing, so I need to cut down the frame size which is a shame.
Hey. One of your best videos. Just did my first soft field landings in pursuit of my PPL. Thanks for the great content and your use of checklists. Awesome stuff.
I noticed your checklist, is that standard with the airplane or have you got a checklist that is produced by another company? just curious.
Can’t wait to start my training always love your video man keep it going

Much prefer the fixed camera.The head cam practically makes me airsick. Otherwise a wonderful video.
I agree 100%. I'm amazed that anyone tolerates whiplash cameras. IMO, all video should be shot on gimbals.
Odd. I absolutely love the POV style. There’s not much on UA-cam, so it’s nice to see some. It gives you a sense of not only being there, but the cockpit it’s self.
@@airwipe1639 I so much agree with you!
Airsick from the head cam. Would be better with multiple camera angles.
I never land on asphalt if I have a choice. Every landing is short or soft field. Bush wheels take a hell of a beating on pavement.
I prefer a mix of camera angles but more fixed than head mounted. Body or head mounted almost makes me dizzy. Thanks for exceptionally well done videos!
I'm not sure if it's just because you were filming or you do that normally too, but I personally find that while flying solo talking to yourself helps a great deal. Especially when it comes to techniques and decision making. Great video!
Love it.
Loveit.
Sorry Josh, it pains me to critical , however the lack of prop filter combined with the head movement was just too much. I’ll be back but def can’t finish this one.
Love the raw video... my PPL check-ride is scheduled for 12JUN so this helped reinforce some techniques for me. Thanks.
Hope the checkride went smoothly for you!
Don’t like the head video. Too much movement!
Do more of the full length flights with the go pro on your head
I 2nd this
New panel, old panel, regardless of circumstances & location, ALWAYS the BEST videos!! "I'll be turning in front of this dip on this takeoff." Dude, I'm sitting right here!! 😆
Great job buddy, the C172 is always lovely!! 😍
Another great video Josh. 44 minutes of fun.
I always enjoy the checklist stuff and you do a great job reading it all out.

*Don't you just hate it when you are listening to the ATIS, and another channel, and people are talking over it, and you have to it 3 or 4 times?.. yeah, it's not fun..*
Why were you getting a terrain warning on downwind turning base?
Hey Josh....Sim pilot here and lonnnng time fan ....how far above your eye level is your head cam mounted 3-4 “.? Trying to adjust seat height for my X-cam.
Lovely flight! And grass landings...makes me wanna get into my Super cub and get some more stick and rudder grass landings at the farm.
Love the raw...”let’sGoDontNeedToDoNothinButHaveFun” flyin’
Nice to see a vet still using his checklists!

You need to upgrade your Ortho scenery 12:37
This was very useful. About to have my skill test in a few days on a C172, so thanks for your tips. :)
If you want to talk slower on the radio, tell ATC to repeat cause you broke you pencil...
😂😂
Where do you get so much money to fly? This is a serious question. I want to become a pilot when i grow up and money is the only issue. Probably you can help me by suggesting how I can fund myself...
answer only if you dont mind...
Hey Josh, something I learned during my CFI training is it is slightly counter-intuitive to take the nose wheel completely off the ground like that as since you're pitched up, you will be causing more drag which will increase the roll out. In turn, I was taught to reduce the pressure off the nose gear, just barely enough where it is either barely touching the ground or just a centimeter or two off of it. Let me know what you think!
I'm a student who flies out of a grass strip. My instructor is a 14,500 hour ATP pilot and he says keep it no more than 2 inches off the ground
What was the setting altimeter captain?
Thank you for another great video! I’m a beginner pilot, just started my ppl. Could you share advice where to mount cameras for best view? How to make them not to record shaky image because of vibration? Thanks!
Wonderful video, as always! =) I really liked the comment you made about the terrain, made me lol a bit! ^_^ Keep up the good work and stay safe up there!
Part of the reason I like your videos is the high production values. The forehead camera seems a bit of a step backward when used as the main view. It is a good supplemental view, but way to much camera motion for a long video.
Great Job with the new camera.
Oof that last landing was buttering the toast as @Airforceproud95 would say
1 (one) "Scoche" of power = 100rpm +/- 10
Yup! 🤣
Controller sounds like Morgan freeman
I trained out of KAUS and that was me when my I instructor asked where certain areas were...him: wheres lakeway me: that wayish
Didn't you do stuff at spicewood? What does it mean a gallon on the conservative side?
What was so bad about the first landing?
23:05 ..I agree Bro....that was a pretty gentle landing.......This guy has high standards.......looking again, he "bounced" back up an inch or 2?...Better than bouncing back up a few feet...like a wounded duck.........Maybe the wing mounted camera, made the landing look more smooth.
The view with the head cam is great! I'm surprised I liked it, but it was really cool!
Well done made it was beutiful you landed totally smoothly even when there was crosswind!!
What type of IPad do you have?
Josh, if you ever decided to put your coast to coast series for sale on DVD or iTunes, I would buy it.
Loved the video . Longer is better . Raw is real . Thanks .
If you are afraid of heights , will this mess with you experience as a pilot ?
Hey Josh! All the views seem to look good. Keep mixing it up! BTW, how is your external wing cam mounted? Thanks!!
*How did you get the radio audio in your video?*
Back in the 60's when I was earning my first "Ticket", I chose to get my Private in tail wheel aircraft.
Our home strip had both grass and paved runways.
Landing on grass you will decelerate faster. But taking off from grass, dirt, sod, gravel your acceleration is slower then on pavement.
To me, these were always the key differences.
Josh, what happened to the guy you used to fly with? I think he flew with you on a couple of trips... one out west. I got the impression he was an instructor you were going in business with.
what kind of screen protector do you use to get rid of the glare?
I really liked this video. Learned a lot from your technical analysis of your flight.

Can you make video whit tomahawk
Best video ever. More video like this please. Awesome. Shout out by ATC was even more awesome.
For you next video, can you do some power on and power off stalls? Thank you
Love this video. LIke the head POV and the basics!!

Too much movement with Head Cam.
just a skosh brother, just a little skosh of power.
Head cam is cool, I like how it shows a bit of you thought process as you look around the cockpit but I almost threw up a few time from feeling motion sick. I would suggest looking at the overall motion of the clip your splicing in and if it moves to much (like on your preflight) I would use another angle. Otherwise great video.
Honestly this camera is awesome, the only issue is it isn't 60 fps, hence, it gives quite a "shaky" feeling.
How long you plan on staying with the 172 before you move up to something else??
I used to fly sailplanes out of Refugio, TX. Always got plenty of soft field landing practice with a Super Cub we towed with. The head mounted camera is a bit much to keep up with and makes me dizzy with the rapid head movements. Otherwise great work on the grass. The floating would be even worse in a low wing aircraft.
The headcam is too much
great teaching video. very well done. always enjoy your videos.
a bit gusty? You're in Texas. That's nothing for some of the winds you've seen.
Enjoyed the grass practices. Thanks.
I loved the video and missed the old raw footage videos and especially enjoy the FPV videos
It is like the Kermie Cam of Kermit Weeks fame it is nice to mix it up with the fixed cameras.
👍
3 and 4... Like butter. Nice!
Thx for the vids
33:47 Dang it Josh! I am laughing out loud :D "I am approaching earth - that is the point of a landing, Siri!!!" Hahaha
