RR, this has been very helpful to see instrument flights put into action. I had to pause my IFR training but watching your videos is keeping me engaged and excited to complete my IFR rating and continue on. I'm coming into the aviation world as an older adult, so this is career 2.0 and you are helping me to keep my skills up.
You speak at a nice pace, easier to understand and follow, then other you tube pilots. Thanks for your patience, and understanding, , Easier to see and hear what’s going on in the cockpit. Can’t wait for your next one. !
I just LUV your CJ4 videos.... you and CitationMax. You two are so great for my MSFS2020 CJ4 flying. If I could doing it all again as I am plus 70 years of age. I would be a CJ4 pilot.....
Lately I've been flying the CJ4 in Microsoft Flight Sim, so this was very cool to see a professional pilot take us through the details of an approach. Thanks for posting this!
I have been based out of ORD several times in my career but have flown to MDW many times from other places. I love the look of the lake and downtown. It is unique. Although in the old days the circle approach landing south was always challenging. Keep enjoying and great videos..
Ryan, loved this full length arrival video. Great for IFR procedural understanding even for us piston IFR pilots. Please keep doing this type of content in addition to your other great mix of content. Thanks!
Hi Ryan. I’m a airline aircraft lead mechanic for over 50 years, and I loved your Midway approach video. First time viewer, but will be looking for more. Thanks.
Awesome video Ryan! I am just a student pilot working on my PPL, but the calm, measured demeanor you have explaining such a complex task is amazing. You are clearly a pilot who works to master your craft and that’s why I’m a subscriber sir. Blue skies, maybe someday I can right seat for you…
Way back in the 90's I had a job as an engineer that requird me to fly into Midway several times a month. However, I never got to look at what the airport looked like on approach. Thank you for this view.
Real nice video. Loved the call outs and your situational awareness. Loved the detail. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to more of your videos. Cheers!
Ive had a pilot try and climb into another aircraft because of a tcas alert. Had to scream for him to stop his climb and issue traffic. There was a departure climbing fast up into him. However the tcas doesnt know that the departure was restricted 1000 ft below him. There was another aircraft 1000 above him. That was what he was climbing into.
Wow,single pilot and still able to talk to your viewers and stay ahead of the aircraft, your ability to be so calm and your voice is perfect so calm and clear, so much to do on that approach, obviously not everyone including me could do that. New to your channel. The one female controller at beginning sounds like the wife of youtuber 310 pilot.
I have never seen one of your videos. I am not a pilot, but occasionally sat in the right seat of our company King Air, because I was the smallest passenger and someone had to sit there. When we switched to flying Citations, our CEO required 2 pilots, and they were required to to have oxygen masks on while flying. Mostly in response to the Payne Stewart tragedy. It was a retail company, and after the Bruno’s grocery plane crash in the 90’s, they wouldn’t put all senior executives on one plane.
Having recently started as a part time co-pilot on the cj2-4's, your videos are great to watch and learn from for procedures. Please keep it up. Super helpful...
Love your videos Ryan, and this one is Top as well. Just must be wonderful and such an experience to drive one of these fast jets! Thanks for taking us all along for the ride. Such a great tutorial as well! :) Thanks!
Thank you for sharing coming into Chicago here!! We had snow last night so ground stops and cancellations were at Midway and O'Hare last night Friday 1/12/2024.
@@TheRunwayRyan And this is only light snowing that we had here just the last couple of days. We went through December with almost no snow. I think we two or three days of light snow last month. Now today, Saturday 1/13/2024, this afternoon is about 24 degrees and the main streets are clear here in the city. O'Hara and Midway are not hitting the news channels with a crisis report yet!!! So, we are ok here in Chicago!! 😂 Hahaha!
Great video! I was based at KMDW in the 737-800 for years, and have returned many times in our Citation. With the walls around it, I always equate Midway to a one square mile prison yard. The only good thing? Giordano's deep dish across the street!
We had to pick up some people at signature at O'Hare few months ago and it was crazy arrival, very busy. Felt like I taxied longer then the flight took. lol Can't wait to land at Midway. Good vid
Great video. First time seeing this channel. It really shows how much workload is on your side of the mic. One small quibble -- ATC told you to contact Midway Tower at MNDOE and you switched early. That can lead to problems sometimes if we notice an overtake or some other situation and we can't resolve it since you left the frequency. Just be careful with that. Keep up the good work.
Having watched tons of almost all dual-pilot business jet videos, the biggest thing I noticed right off is how much head down time there is for a single pilot. I realize this is heavily edited but the amount of time spent inside was shocking. And extra bits done for sharing with the YT audience only added to it. Makes me squirm. I’ve seen accidents avoided because good CRM with a two-person crew meant someone always had their head outside.
@@TheRunwayRyan I watched your biographical video and was very impressed with your background as a firefighter and medical first responder. Congratulations on your career and success as a pilot.
Hi Ryan, would love to see a detailed explanation of the restrictions such as the one starting at 10:40. I thought if you were IFR, you didn't have to worry about VFR airspaces. Thanks.
We do indeed still have to meet all of the speed restrictions. It applies to the airspace as a whole, regardless of which rules you are flying under (IFR/VFR).
Great video man!! So Midway, La Guardia and San Diego are notorious for really short runways and very busy airspace respectfully. So my question is what other challenges do they possess? Also, what advice would you give someone who wants to get their (PPL) Private Pilots License? I want to get my PPL which is why I ask. Thanks for your time sir!
I really enjoyed learning from your flows, ADMs and overall mentality Ryan during this one. The CJ4 comes by default in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. I use your vlogs as great examples to learn from. More please! (eg. detailed startup flows, explaining the ahrs panel, fmc programming tricks)
Nice video, would be nice to have a view straight ahead rather than over your left shoulder though, it’s pretty hard to see anything. I subscribed hoping to see more like this 😊
I’ve been flying the CJ4 on Microsoft flight sim and it’s slowing becoming my favorite plane! So cool to see this arrival, thanks for this inside view and I hope to see more! Quick question if you don’t mind, do you own the aircraft?
With tail mounted engines like this, there is no discussion about that. I think it may make a greater difference on an airliner with a wing mounted engine,
nice video .. good thing we have tech now days to help with the steps coming into Chicago .. wooo .. nice job .. very nice plane .. next thing is to get a GPS system to control traffic on the ground . so the accident that happened in Tokyo Japan doesnt ever happen again .. in bad weather ect . RIP those disaster relief workers in Japan . God speed brother
Not associated, just a great product that I use. ForeFlight offers the service of being able to use callsigns like this to block a tail number and allow for some privacy. Just like a DotCom callsign, except this one is assigned to me instead of the airplane.
I don't fly period! I wish I could. That was way too much chatter for me. If I did pilot it would be by the seat of my pants and I sure as hell wouldn't be landing in Chicago of all places. But thanks, I think for the ride.
Thanks, I try to get the overall view of the panel, so unfortunately I can’t show the instruments in super detail. Trying to show a view that includes the autopilot, FMS, and flight displays.
What’s the difference between RNAV Y, and the one you executed, Z. ? Why is yankee more for airlines, and why do pilots need special qualification for “y”
The RNAV Y is an RNP approach, which stands for required navigation performance. The aircraft has to be certified to do the approach, the crew has to be certified to do it, and they have to receive recurrent training on it. . . At least to my knowledge. It’s not something we do in corporate. There are a few corporate operators out there that are capable I’m sure, but not many.
Serious questions, I notice a lot of you guys like to fly high performance GA jets single pilot for your videos, why is that? Are you concerned what could happen if you have a medical issue and there’s no one there to get you on the ground safely? Obviously if it’s a massive heart attack you’re not going to survive, but what if it’s a minor stroke and you’re unable to fly the airplane and you basically just watch yourself run out of fuel until you crash? Are you concerned that you need some help to alleviate some of the busy work in the cockpit while you’re in the terminal environment? Also, I notice you take your little girl on some of these flights single pilot and that just doesn’t seem like a responsible idea since you’re essentially risking her life and yours without the redundancy of a qualified first officer in the airplane. I promise I’m not trying to be a dick or anything, I’m just genuinely interested in the reasoning.
Well, that's just the way it is. One of the biggest benefits to the owners of a single pilot aircraft is the flexibility. I see what you are saying about taking my kids along, but it could happen in the truck on the highway too. I know you are more likely to survive a crash that way, but bad things can happen anywhere. We try to let my babies experience as much as they can! I also keep a first class medical certificate, so there are pretty stringent guidelines for that. Additionally I do a full health screening along with CT scans every few years.
RR, this has been very helpful to see instrument flights put into action. I had to pause my IFR training but watching your videos is keeping me engaged and excited to complete my IFR rating and continue on. I'm coming into the aviation world as an older adult, so this is career 2.0 and you are helping me to keep my skills up.
It was a second career for me too, so keep on trucking!
Oh my gosh, the controller with the "HAVE A BEAUUUUUTIFUL WEEK" is awesome. I've heard her many times. What a small world.
She sounds like the wife of UA-camr “310pilot” check it out
You speak at a nice pace, easier to understand and follow, then other you tube pilots. Thanks for your patience, and understanding, , Easier to see and hear what’s going on in the cockpit. Can’t wait for your next one. !
That is high praise, thank you for watching!

Shoot, you're probably there by now!
I’d love to meet that controller that told you to have a beautiful weekend. She’s always super nice! Another great video!
Thank you, and thanks for watching!
Kind of sounded like Jamie from 310 Pilot channel
Love the format. So interesting as I'm only halfway to my PPL, but planning to get my IR right after.
That’s a great move, it makes you a way safer pilot. Glad you liked the video, and thanks for watching.

Thank you very much!
enjoyed the video. thank you Ryan!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Yes, I enjoyed this, Ryan! Thanks for your contribution.👍🇨🇦

Great video. Love the Midway approach!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Agreed. When planes are arriving 22L or R, which runways are being used for departures at that time?
Another beautiful landing well done sir
Many thanks!
