    Thank you for watching this video. Me and my partners are creating more success stories like the one you just watched. For those who are interested, we have a nonprofit based at the Compton Airport in southern California where we teach kids how to fly. We are now able to except donations. For more information go to www.flycomptonfoundation.org. Tell them Brian Monette sent you. I also have more information about Fly Compton in the following videos. Have an awesome day!

      @Frank Silvers wrong again look up the definition. But you’re either a bot or just a fragile white person who get offended by every little thing either way this would be a never ending back and forth. Bottom line if you think it’s racist for black people to uplift black people there seems to be more wrong with you and if you don’t like it well tough tittys for you 🤷🏾‍♂️

    • @i.i.3399
      @i.i.3399 3 роки тому

      @Frank Silvers …..Because that’s my business and my opinion. It’s obvious that we as Black People are bombarded with what white people do everyday so as a educated Black woman with educated Parents and family I was Godly Proud to see these young Black Men celebrated. We don’t have monuments everywhere or are children taught in school the accomplishments along with how our ancestors built this country on their backs and with their lives. White people take for granted things that we will never be able to. Some things I can’t make some people understand. I was Godly Proud. 🙏🏽

    Being pilot is a one of the coolest job to perform. There are times when the aircraft decides it doesn't want to perform the way it should. Those are the tough times but their training help them get through those times. Well done to his teacher and inspiring a young man to become a pilot. Are you planning to move up to larger aircraft. Great job.

    • @BrianMonette
      @BrianMonette  3 роки тому +7

      When in doubt, turn off the auto pilot and just fly it. That’s what I recommend most pilots. Thank you for watching.

I haven’t been this proud of this country since watching the military dog lucca who saved thousands of soldiers get a water salute out of iah on American Airlines sitting on first class . Heroes exist in so many different people and animals and u2 are heroes to show JUST DO IT!!

    Nice video Brian. No sugar coating professional pilot life. It looks like Demetrius truly enjoys his chosen profession. Brian you showed a day in the life of someone whom has put in the time and effort to get to where they are. Demetrius bragged on the new plane and I know he wanted to show it off, but as a true professional, along with his co-pilot, the correct decision was made. Demetrius knows that the most important part of his job is to get from point A to point B safely. I liked that abbreviated approach into Burlington. Great job Brian, with the video.

    Brian, I stumbled onto this video. All I can say is WOW! I loved all of it. Now retired, I was an Air Force flight instructor and later an airline pilot. My greatest thrill was watching my students develop into fine pilots. Later, as an airline captain, I was responsible to train those junior to me. This profession is made better as we pass down our knowledge, which you have done, and then see those who we teach become better than we were. You have done that. I am so proud of both you and Demetrius. I would love to go flying with you both!

    Kudos to you for planting the seed , and bravo to to Demetrius for representing you and the community so well. At age 18 I was at a kite festival is Boston and saw a skydiving demonstration, and I was in love at first sight , and 3 weeks later I found myself suited up at Orange Mass.parachuting center for my first of 3 static line jumps, mind you that was my first 3 times flying in an airplane. I then took an introductory lesson in a Robinson r-22 it was that time that I realized flying an aircraft wasn’t as easy as it looked, I’m 57 now and unfortunately I didn’t have access to people like you for guidance and although I travel abundantly I can now fly vicariously through you and Demetrius, I’m proud of both of you this story brought a tear to my eye 🙏🏽And as far as the passenger behind you, people who talk behind your back are behind you for a reason , so keep paving the way and don’t mind their hawking because their spit can’t reach where your walking.
