    Still can't believe you can fly IFR without a traffic service, in Australia it's VFR or IFR with traffic service theres no in-between.

    • @PlaneOldBen
      @PlaneOldBen  4 роки тому

      That’s really interesting! We were on a procedural service which covers IFR traffic following the instrument approaches procedures, any other traffic in the area IFR should call Gloucester and then the controller can deconflict, albeit without a radar. You’ll notice on the way back I wanted to get a radar service as soon as possible which Birmingham gave us.

    The DA42 has a special place in my heart. Not the fastest but oh so forgiving, economical and in my opinion, rather sexy. Got my MEP/IR in it 9 years ago and I miss those days now... Airlines are good and all, but theres something about planning your own route and flying it. Good vid!

    Ben fab video and i wondered who was the CFII?? One question-why did you not file IFR? wouldn't that be the best experience-builder for real IFR operations? your ME CFI would serve as PIC.

    • @PlaneOldBen
      @PlaneOldBen  4 роки тому

      The flight was flown IFR, it didn’t require a flight plan. I think there’s some differences between the US and UK going off your questions.

    • @douglasb5046
