  • My daughter Katey and I head to South Lake Tahoe to pick up a cardiac patient for treatment in Phoenix. Due to fires that are covering most of the western US, we are in full IMC right down to minimums and surrounded by mountains.

    I love your channel and I
    Love your approach to your flying. Competence without arrogance, caution without timidity, attention to detail without tunnel vision.

    Before I was instrument rated, I used to marvel at these pilots dropping out of the bottom of a cloud, never thought of dropping out of the thick smoke like that. Excellent video. I only fly flight simulators on my computer now. Thanks for the video.

    Good Day Sir. I just discovered your channel today and have watched 3 or 4 of the videos, including your daughters solo flight. She definitely takes after her Dad, she handled the curves thrown at her like a pro. You have a Beautiful family and I love watching someone that is a Safe and Sane pilot as are you. Thank you for sharing, I will be continuing to watch and learn.

    Fun video, I was behind you in a Comanche awaiting IFR release when you cancelled to depart VFR, Never been to KFFZ before, man that place is a circus. I got the Mesa 1 Ifnur to PXR V190 to go NE but ended up getting vectors around Gateway to join V190. Nutty the amount of flight school traffic there! Fun to hear Katie on the radio, congrats to her on her aviation journey, you two crack me up

    • @BelowMinimums
      @BelowMinimums 3 роки тому +1

      I got my PPL and instrument out of FFZ and yeah the airspace around there is absolutely saturated with traffic. During instrument training I flew the Mesa1 IFNUR every flight as all the approach training is done so the south at the airport CGZ since it's an uncontrolled field with a VOR, ILS, and a GPS approach.

    Just found your UA-cam channel and I’ve now subscribed. Great flight...kept my attention completely! I flew and owned and flew a Cherokee 180 for 24 years, which sounds like what Katie flies...great plane! I little over a year ago I had to stop flying and sell her...now I’m going to relive flying with you two! Thanks for sharing your adventure. Katie, keep up the great flying! A L/R hint...look at the back of your hands, with thumbs sticking out...left hand should look like an L.

    Don’t worry about your dislexic directional condition. My dad actually made “left” and “right”placards and put them on either side of the directional gyro. To avoid a wrong turn.

      An old Navy admiral had a wooden box in his stateroom, and he would always close the door in the morning and look in the box. One day, his sailors saw him look in the box. He passed away, and one of the sailors ran to the box. There was a card in the box that said, "port left, starboard right."

    What an inspiration Katey is! A truly wonderful God centered family. The Reno controller left me, upon initial contact, with the impression that he had your destination as Truckee instead of South Lake Tahoe.

    19:57 “operational necessity”....the arriving AA flight on the radio needed a runway at Reno that wasn’t currently being used by the airport...for whatever reason-performance, approach capability, etc-and the controller needed the crew to state exactly why they needed it.

    Very cool! I'm currently going through IFR training, so I really appreciate seeing the in-depth look into the enroute and approach segments of the flight. I've flown to KTVL VFR once, it's too bad the smoke was covering up the beautiful views. Thanks for the great video!

    You're not alone, Katey. I announce baseball games and was constantly getting confused about whether the ball went to right field or left field. Now I have an "R" tattooed on my right hand between the base knuckle of my thumb and the base knuckle of my index finger, and an "L" on the same position on my left hand.

    It was interesting to watch as you worked through the flight and transitions. It looks like you can enter changes in altitude and even direction while staying on autopilot. It looks like that would be a fun plane to fly. And Katey did well for a relatively new pilot. Congratulations.

    Great to see a new post ... and to see Katey progressing.
    My only complaint ... would love to see/hear you cancelling IFR on the ground. I was getting anxious watching the (accelerated) taxi ... afraid that someone up there was going to be making unnecessary circles to the right if you waited too long / forgot to cancel 😉.
    Those fires are serious, be safe and blessings to you and your family!

    CPT. Malibu, (4DT) I concur with all the other kudos that you had received from other viewers. Can't believe but you have been flying such a short time and have achieved such a commanding array piloting skills. I just had to stop & tell you how really impressed I am by how you conduct your "PIC" AUTHORITY! You seem to have a very confident grip on airman's manual. You're one smooth operator and obviously have a good personality. Your love for your family comes shining through and is very admirable. Are you going to buy the M600? You know, I can almost see you taking to the skies in the new "Honda elite"! (hey why not?) Will close by thanking you for some outstanding videos. Remember the 5 Ps: proper planning produces perfect performance. GODbless!!! Chuck
