first SOLO IFR in IMC and Cross Border !!! Diamond DA40 NG EYZ

Well here it is.....finally got my IFR ticket.....have completed a number of IFR flights in VFR conditions, but today is my first IFR flight in IMC and a cross-border flight to boot. Super excited and had so much fun doing it. Thanks for riding along.........EYZ

"This is great!"... indeed it is. Congratulations! Wayne (DA40 KSBA)

Thanks Wayne, just loved it !! Been following your Mexico adventures, and really love your videos. Some day I am going to reach out to you for advice, when I get to heading south of the border. Stay well, and thanks again!! David

David, you'll love flying to Mexico and further south... and I'll be very glad to help. All the best! Wayne

Great stuff. I start my flight training in my new DA40 NG next week. I just can’t imagine how cool it felt to confidently fly in, through and out of the clouds ☁️

[@diamondeyz6333]

Thanks for watching, good luck with the training......it is all worth it.....way too much fun!!

Excellent that you have the ticket and using it. Opens up so many more flights for you.
Working on my PPL at DFC and you taking off on 12 is looking so familiar. Just need more circuits 😡 before solo and hopefully get up there with you.
Looking forward to more IMC flight videos.

Thanks JF !!

Great video, love the star wars themed subtitles. If you could incorporate a screenshot of your foreflight with the IFR procedures during the video when you have been cleared, it'd be super informative and fun to watch!

Thanks, working on improving my vids all the time...will try to get that in, and planning to add a camera onto the avionics as well....stay tuned and Thanks again....EYZ

Nicely done, Dave, congrats! What happened to the footage from the GoPro on the canopy?

[@WingsOverTO]

Landing was a little better than mine in Kincardine, too!

[@diamondeyz6333]

Thanks Kamal, still struggling with the cameras.....but got it working on the second flight......you will see it on the next vid post.

[@diamondeyz6333]

Yeah, every dog has his day !! Thanks again for the day we spent going out to Kincardine.......really appreciate it !!
