@@NikosWings I had a lot of fun watching this video! I am forever in debt to you! im sorry hahahaha In all seriousness though, you have helped me push through to get my training for a PPL, and I can't thank you enough for that!
You guys are heroes to me. I'm a 27 year old father of 2, and I don't have the money to fly right now. But watching you guys fly kind of eases the hunger. Hopefully when my wife goes back to work after the kids start school, I will be able to finish my PPL. Long term goal is to be an ag pilot, and combine my two loves.
michael new I’ve been there. You have a plan, now you just need to stick with it. Remember, the ones who tell you that you can’t do something are usually the ones that have never tried! Never stop chasing your dreams!
I absolutely love how you have zero tolerance for unsafe conditions. It's awesome for new and experienced pilots alike to see this and think twice about pushing the boundaries.
I'm so happy someone is living a successful happy life. There are a lot of us struggling, I lost my job, and the country is getting more divided every day between the haves and have not's. A lot of us will never reach the level of monetary success you have, but at least we can all ride along. Thanks Niko! And I wish you continued success and happiness.
Thanks Ryan. I always had a dream to do good, I came from a poor Greek middle class family from Greece as a student and started a business in the US. It’s been a 30 year journey for me and the last 5 years have been good. Dreams come true when you work hard to achieve them. I can’t tel you how many hundreds of times I thought I was going broke and would starve... that’s the risk you take when you work towards a dream. But the rewards are amazing! I wish everyone to be a dreamer and to face their fears and never say “I can’t”
I watched Chris's videos about his trip to get the Baron back and was just amazed how you dropped everything to help him out. It was so cool of you to do that. You're one stand up guy. I've been watching this channel for a long time now (I'm fairly new to the Baron Pilot channel - only about a year) and I'm proud to be a part of it. Good karma to you - you deserve it.
Niko, it is a good thing you did to help a fellow pilot. Good on you, not everyone comes to the air of others when in need. You just made it in on your way back!
Mr. Nick you are one Pilot among the few that respects the weather exactly like the guys respect the Bearing Sea on Deadliest Catch. When you do, this is why you stay alive. I was a student Pilot, my instructor was with me, and since it was the first time I flew into a really bad storm, I was not going to be big-headed enough and say, " I can do this " I let him have the controls. That is having respect for the weather and your instructor so you can learn from the veteran flyers. I would to God sometimes he was still with us so I can tell him.
Fantastic perspective from the wingtip camera; crisp and clear editing. Cockpit video perfectly placed. Segues make sense between the video highlights. Well done! 😎
Thank you for the amazing video! I've been flying a SR-20 G6 for the past few months and these videos have helped me get out of some tricky weather situations in Texas. Can't thank you enough for all the amazing work, I admire it as a pilot and a film maker, thanks niko!
Nicely done Niko! Great IFR flying as always. Loved the first approach back into Boca w/the rain......"Are you current on your approaches!"......Sierra Zulu says heck yeah! Superb editing my friend.
Wow.... the world needs more friends like you Niko....! What a great guy. I sure love that Cirrus, it's a beautiful plane. Loved the video, thanks for sharing!!
Beautiful video, Niko. And a true friend to help a fellow pilot out to pick up his bird. I really want a turbo 182, but you keep making a point for the Cirrus...
That transition you did with the 360 camera at 16:11 was cool I liked it. Nice way to show time moving. You do an awesome job with the 360 camera. You are setting the bar! 🙌
Interesting flights! Really cool video at approx 12:40 with clouds below and a wispy layer also above! I also watch Baron Pilot and a couple more that I love watching while I dream of flying and wish I had followed through with my flying lessons when I was still a young man. It's really nice you guys help each other out! I know if I was flying I'd be looking for excuses just to go places. I used to fly sims a lot too, so I'm getting back into that with X Plane 11, and I'm going to learn and much as I can via that then make flights to all of your airports LOL I'll never get close enough to visit but gas and maintenance prices are just right!
Friends helping Friends, its a big deal, when your aircraft is positioned away from you base, whatever the reason. Thanks Niko, for another great video. Awesome editing...
I haven't had the time to watch your videos lately because of studying, but now that my ATPL exams are done its nice to be back enjoying your videos again!
Great to see your view of this day. You are a great friend to do this Niko, but no doubt Chris would do the same for you. That’s what I love about the aviation community ! 🇺🇸🛫
Found you through recommendations, and I’m seriously impressed! This is the first video of yours that I have watched thus far, and it was excellent. From the flying down to the music and editing. It was like watching a movie, a genuine and polished piece of entertainment. I love that plane! Definitely subscribed, and happier for it!
Good video Niko! As a viewer, I’m consistently impressed with your editing & film work. The quality of video, number of high quality edits & cuts, and smooth transitions are all very well done. Thanks for the time & effort you put in to creating top notch content!
This aircraft seems incredible, and on top of that the parachute will save your life when things go wrong (icing, engine trouble at night or in fog, health problem, collision,...) too bad it’s too expensive for me. Btw your videos are really cool!
Yet another fabulous video Niko. I always look forward to your next trip as I learn something every single time...thanks for sharing. It's MUCH appreciated!
Hey I noticed you filmed the beginning of this video in Mizner park!!!!! I absolutely love that place my grandparents live in chalfonte towers just down the street on A1A!
@@NikosWings same here my friend, it’s very beautiful and clean especially by the water but even boca pointe is nice more inland. Perfectly located between palm beach and lauderdale/Miami as well. It’s amazing about Mizner park i walked through there many weekend nights with friends or parents almost 20 years ago as a boy and now I’m 35 and it literally has not changed and looks as beautiful as ever. Amazing
@@NikosWings about a yoear ago I landed our club's 172 on RW 18 with winds at 220° 19kt gusting 35kt. Not a lot of fun. My son who is training for his PPL (post solo) was pretty impressed with my landing. The circus was in town.
Funny how life throws you curveballs like that, but will say it again, you're the man for rescuing a fellow flyer like that. Also amazing how Florida weather erupts like that, even though I didn't fly it much even when I still had my wings. Kris should have put you up for the night down there, so you could have just started the flight out the next day w/out having to fly back in that slop. Although that Cirrus is still amazing in any weather.
Just came across your channel, and I have to say it's brilliant work. Great to see all the different flights you do. Thanks from the UK, keep up the great work 👍
It amazes me how the lingo is so different than what non-pilots are used to and yet the pilots and the towers communicate a lot of information very rapidly and precisely over and over with what seems like little effort.
Nikko, thank you as I'm about to restrap wings on after 5 yrs in the middle East. Have to do a a tranfer fron my UK license. I miss the junkets to France a couple times a month to exchange fuel for a number of cases of wine. Plus flying back from Germany n Austria which I miss and early morning flights with my Golden Retriever whom took a ride in the F +Resue Truck in the early AM to clear the sea gulls off Buggin Hill Airfield before 7. She was a regular passenger taxing planes to maintenance and would fly to deliver parts to othe airports. Trying to return to the mind stretching air agian to wake up to the sweet smell of AvGas in the morning. Thank you again for the best vids I've seen. 5 gold stars.⭐⭐⭐⭐🌟
Love your videos, and well that guy thats a “Pilot” that flys a “Baron” as well - HA! Yep, Now you feel our pain Kansas weather has been hit-n-miss. Finally got to fly on 05/31/2019 and see all the rain results form the air. We thought we were looking at LAKES, nope small rivers overflowed their banks. Editing now, should post by; 06/07/2019.
In order to get this type of real world flying is to go out and do it or you can tune into Niko's Wings and get it , awesome video ! That is a great friend to have , pick up and fly to get their plane, not once but twice, love the aviation community. I am not sure what is more impressive the Cirrus , the Tesla or that coffee maker, decisions decisions lol
as usual Nikko, great flying and very cool video. Beautiful aircraft and your car isn't too shabby either. My cousin works for Tesla in Dallas. Unfortunately no family discount for me.....LOL
Niko, glad to see you back up in the air. I’m curious to know if you are still going to complete your total US crisscross journey? Can’t blame you for any delays as the weather has been a total bear all across the states this spring. Whenever you have time to spare, could you please give us an update on this epic life experience?
What is "current on approaches"? mmm sound very interesting to learn. To add: I finally made up into my mind to go after my private pilot licence next year - March 2020. I don't where this is going. But, I learned. "Everything you want is on the other side of fear".
I love what you said, so true! “Current on approaches” is in reference to practicing 6 approaches in the last 6 months in order to be able to fly under instrument rules and actually fly an approach procedure when weather conditions do not allow a visual approach.
well done with the no-go decision. being the pic means having to sometimes say no. it is what it is. its the ones that cant say no that sometimes get their people hurt
Love the videos keep it up! It’s so cool to see you flying to BCT and PGD. I am a student pilot out of LNA and I’ve been to BCT and am planning a Xcountry to PGD so it’s cool to see you fly there. Keep up the vids!
so cool to see your perspective of this trip. I can't thank you enough for your help and all you did for me. I am forever in debt to you! ;-)
I had a lot of fun flying with you as well as making this video

Love the "direct hevvn ". Not yet, a lot of flying left to accomplish! Hopefully some day we all will be direct there !! Blue skies !!!
Oh David that’s what I think every time I fly to that intersection... “not ready for that yet, having a blast down here”

Hi Niko, it was great to see "your side" of this - you're a great friend to Kris, and he obviously thinks the world of you!
I think the world of Kristoffer too

Nicely done Niko! Great IFR flying as always. Loved the first approach back into Boca w/the rain......"Are you current on your approaches!"......Sierra Zulu says heck yeah! Superb editing my friend.
SZ is always current with her approaches, luckily her pilot was too and that made her a happy girl.... Athena is her name by the way...
@@NikosWings Love the name! So appropriate.
Wow.... the world needs more friends like you Niko....! What a great guy. I sure love that Cirrus, it's a beautiful plane. Loved the video, thanks for sharing!!
Beautiful video, Niko. And a true friend to help a fellow pilot out to pick up his bird. I really want a turbo 182, but you keep making a point for the Cirrus...
The 182 is a solid platform and can haul a ton of weight and take you places fast enough. The CAPS parachute of the Cirrus is key for me.
@@NikosWings Besides being an extra layer of security, why does the CAPS seal the deal?
Because you live with it
That transition you did with the 360 camera at 16:11 was cool I liked it. Nice way to show time moving. You do an awesome job with the 360 camera. You are setting the bar! 🙌
Thx John
Thanks for the ride and for the education.
Very cool! I live in Mobile and that airport is where I’m getting my PPL schooling. 👍🏼
I gotta say that I enjoy your selection of music that goes along with your videos.
Thx Brian
Interesting flights! Really cool video at approx 12:40 with clouds below and a wispy layer also above!
I also watch Baron Pilot and a couple more that I love watching while I dream of flying and wish I had followed through with my flying lessons when I was still a young man.

Good for you
Idk if my other comment went thru but I absolutely love Mizner park man!!!! Nice shots!
Great to see your view of this day. You are a great friend to do this Niko, but no doubt Chris would do the same for you. That’s what I love about the aviation community ! 🇺🇸🛫
Way to go Nico, helping a fellow pilot. I gave you 3 thumbs up.👍👍👍

Such an awesome collaboration! Thanks for sharing this with us all 😁
I like to land without flaps when I have a big crosswind like that. It makes it much easier.
Not recommended with the Cirrus

Thanks a lot for letting me fly along smooth ride or at least from where I'm sitting thanks for the share
This channel deserves more! Another amazing video, i am becoming a superfan of your channel.
I find it cool that you have your base in Boca. And so close to the Lynn ramp. Maybe I’ll see you during my flight training there one day.
I’m right next door and I know several of the students there. If you see me stop and say hello
Niko, you're a true aviation brother. I'm sure Chris was more than thankful for your generosity. Keep up the good work 👍
Like the little nuggets of aviation rules that you drop in, like the max altitude with-out oxygen mask..etc. another great video Niko..Cheers
Just recently subscribed to your channel. Awesome stuff 🤙🏼
nice video as always Niko. I did my pilot training at Punta Gorda airport, a yr ago last January. nice airport and very beautiful land/seascape.
