#Flying #Aviation #FlightTraining
Most of your followers just like watching aviation videos, even if they were unplanned. This was an excellent video; you should do more like this.
Josh, 20 years from now this will be an all time favorite video. You flying with your father.
Best of all, it is one you will share with HIS grandchildren (your kids).
At 74 years old, I know of which I speak. GOOD ONE!
Josh, you put out some awesome films, but this flight was just magic.
So good to see Dad back in the cockpit. I think you'll look back on those times as the best of your life!
And Chelsey's left break from the formation was like TopGun! You captured it perfectly.
Josh, of all of your vídeos, I think this one was the BEST one, no production, talk, editing would surpass the excellent moments you guys had. Me as a pilot myself, being a son of a pilot and I never had the opportunity to fly with my dad, this was a joy to watch. Thanks for sharing.
Dad created his own instructor! Great father/son experience. This will be a memory that you never forget.
The video that you may not feel is up to your par, is one of the best when it comes to flying with your Father. You keep this one for a lasting memory.
Every minute of video you can record now of you with your dad flying will be priceless in years to come when he is gone. Keep these happy times coming.
Josh, CHERISH these moments with your father.
They WILL become beautiful markers in your life later on...
Thank you for sharing these "Moments in Time"
This actually is one of my favorites. It’s so cool that your Dad is always continuing to learn. I wish I could do another sunset flight with my Dad. Thanks for posting!
Just seeing you fly with your dad made me smile! Well done!!
Man, a lot of us live vicariously through you. Anything you show, we eat up. Thanks for the video.
I love this format. It’s real and unscripted. Just like real life. Great job
I'm glad that you've decided to publish this video. It's like inviting us for a Family reunion.
Thank yo do much!
I think the part that touches a lot of people with this video is that it’s not scripted. Most of your videos have a script, and that’s awesome. But then there are those moments of you putting the GoPro on your head just to fly pattern work. And those moments that were on the cutting room floor (kayaking in Alaska). And then these moments that are just “hey, I’m going to go fly with the ones I love.”
I appreciate your ability to tell a story, while at the same time I like it that’s there’s more than just the story. Like watching your favorite band practicing in a basement or joining them in a jam session in the hotel lobby. Raw. Real.
Josh, as of the 18th of Nov., I've been without my dad for 2 years, and the loss of him is still raw to me. But it brings me so much joy to see you have such a special moment and be able to share it with your father. 20 years ago, my dad was my instructor when I began taking flight lessons, although I have yet to finish my flight training, it was so special that I could say my dad was my instructor. Thank you for making a video of this, it warms my heart and reminds me of some very warm memories of my own father. I always enjoy your videos, but this one hits close to home for me. Thank you.
Josh thank you for sharing a moment in time with your dad beside you. It reminds me of the times I had with my father when he was still here. Thanks again
OMG!!!!!! You should always video any time your with your dad!!!! Your going to miss the time with him when he's not with you. Enjoy the time like we enjoy your videos!!!!!! Miss seeing your dad!!!!!!
Any time your flying with your dad, we would Love to see it!!!! Miss seeing your dad!!!!
We started watching you years back when it was super simple. Enjoyed this one as well. You’ve come so so far that recent ones are like movies. I think we’re all pleased when you release a new vid. Thanks Josh
Loved it! And it was special because your father was involved and also he was learning formation flying/technique from you. What a special bonding memory for a son/father moment. I really enjoyed that aspect of the video. Making great memories together that both of you will cherish. Kudos!
Nice to have the memories flying with your dad.
These videos are why came originally Josh! Some of my favorites are of you just flying around San Marcos. I remember one time you did a video flying to Fredericksburg for a cheeseburger. Good memories, and I love those simple videos sometimes.
Josh, what a cool experience with your Dad! My Dad and I are kind of the same but into cars, trucks, and big rigs. These moments you caught on video are to be cherished by you and your family. Very cool! My Dad has always had a fascination with aerospace stuff, but I'm very slowly becoming intrigued, and I'm 57! Love your videos! Be safe!
I would love to fly with my dad anytime. This is precious footage.
Great memory with your Dad, wish I had my Dad around. Please SHOW your Dad more.
Top 10 video for sure. Right up there with landing at Oshkosh. Not an aviator, but live vicariously through you all on UA-cam, and my lightweight drone. That was so much fun to watch with you Dad! Would love to see more like this.
Josh, loved the video. It was a raw moment and am glad your shared it !
I love the meticulously edited multi-part series that you produce, and they are planned with content creation in mind. Not every video needs to be that, and is this video is a perfect example of why. Those unplanned moments caught on camera are just as special in their own right, because they are the ones that often reveal what general aviation is really about - in this case a guy creating a memory with his Dad.
Please do keep posting shorter videos like this !

Josh, this was an excellent video. You have a natural ability to make even a simple video a work of art. Seeing the joy on your father's face while formation flying was priceless. Keep up the excellent work. Safe skies my friend 🇺🇸🛩️
I loved this, Josh. From both the flying and artistic standpoints.
Having been fortunate enough to have done some elementary formation flying in planes not unlike yours, I understand the joy and wonder of watching and being part of such aviation. It is magnificent fun when done right, even at elementary levels. So being able to watch it in your video was for sure a treat.
Moving between flying and the next topic, I know you and all aviators know the great surprised and fun that can just happen on the fly when simply sitting around an airport on a Sunday afternoon, doing some hangar flying, and some great unexpected opportunity comes up. So...
As an artist never ever discount the absolute magic, wonder, and miracles that can occur solely out of serendipity. I've engaged in a couple kinds of artistic activities over the years, and I certainly understand the pleasure and pride that is derived from planning, designing, and executing a great project. Put all the pieces together perfectly, plan to make them perfect, etc, etc. It is so fulfilling. On the other hand, we also must not neglect to accept - whenever the muses decide to gift us - with the sudden, unplanned, but exquisitely joyous "thing" that just pops up out of nothing. Like your waste files of video. Nope, today's video is not a Martin Scorcese production. But it's fabulous, wondrous, freeing, and spontaneous .And it deserves celebrating and to be seen by others who appreciate the same things.
So please - NEVER abandon the spontaneous inspiration in favor of only perfectly engineered perfection. You've heard it said that prefect is the enemy of good. I'll add one more - perfect is the enemy of the magical!
I would love to have more footage like this. Memories are reasons most of fly.
I love your videos. Flying formation was a very choreographed maneuver. Whether it was in a fighter sized AC or a large transport AC. Once you learn the basics, it doesn’t matter the aircraft. The plan, the communications and strict adherence to the ROE is required. At some point flying formation was comfortable and efficient. I’m glad you got to show your Dad how to make it happen.
Josh, great video as it was a memory moment with the people you love! You don't need perfect coverage for a video. Flying does not always turn out the way you expect though hopefully you land without damage to plane or self. There is no doubt that Chels has brought an increase in your following as you mix semi-personal with flying and professional videography. While I did not fly what we would call full-scale planes with my dad, I flew model aircraft with him for more than 30 years. The memories we had are fantastic! I have flown formation both full-scale and model and while full-scale has a much bigger danger factor, formation model flying is much harder when you are standing on the ground trying to determine relative distance.
Please continue to share your flying experiences / memories. Video editing is very time consuming, especially when you are putting out professional quality video but it is okay to just include some fun memories without worrying if you have enough "good" video. It is not the destination but the journey and shared experiences are a great way to remember our own experiences. Life is too short and you never know when things will change so enjoy it with those you love and we will have fun watching from a distance.
I enjoyed the video. They shouldn't be wasted and it gives you more to post and us, more to watch. Keep up the great work.
Josh, i’ve been following since 80991 was still brown. I finally had the opportunity to take the yoke of a Skyhawk 172. It was thrilling and so satisfying to finally feel what its like to move and aircraft in the air. I’m still a ways out financially and waiting for the appropriate season of life to do it, but I will be doing flight school one day. Thanks for the great content over the last almost decade. Cheers 🇺🇸
Just got back from watching planes at the airport with my 8yr old son. Another great video! Loved it.
Josh, I'm going to share a quote that you once shared with us (paraphrased). "Perfection is the enemy of completion" In my humble opinion, sometimes you just have to shoot from the hip and go with what you've got. GREAT VIDEO!!!
Beautiful Josh !
This brought tears to my eyes... my Dad was my instructor. He introduced me to the magic of flight in the mid 80's, and I have cherished every hour I've logged since...
I was blessed to be able fly with him for nearly 30 years before he passed.
The "polished" content you produce is good for the mind, but this "unpolished" view of flying is good for the soul...
Thank you !
Josh, this short, simple, and as-it-actually-happened video was awesome. The subject of 'formation flying' was also great as there is very little of this published - a taste without actually being instructional. Will be very happy to see more like this.
You're very good at film making and flying that Cessna Josh.... those moments on tape with Pops will be priceless one day my friend. My best to you and Chelsea, God Bless !
Fantastc video. No explanation required. Most of my best aviation experiences have been with my eyes wide open, my mouth closed just taking it all in, sharing the silence and beauty of flying with someone I love. Well done!
Loved this! You proved that not only can you teach an old dog new tricks, but you can teach your Dad!!!!!!
I love these kind of videos that are not that polished and just show some joyful time.
I watch all of your videos and love the production and forethought going into them, BUT this is probably my favorite you have done. My dad always wanted to be a pilot. He never did that. I would have loved to fly with him as a fellow pilot. So glad you have this with your dad.
Another excellent video. They don't all have to be produced, planned, and polished all the time. In fact, these types of videos from you really show that. Frankly, this community just wants to see flying and your style, polished or raw, is a pleasure to watch, and again, polished or raw there is always something to be learned and enjoyed. Keep up the good work. Thanks, Josh, Chelsea, and Dad!
Bonding time with Dad and the Lady. Memories to cherish
Nice moment in time helping your Dad experience something new and safe with you.
Your dad is great! Super cool to see a new skill in development and he was so focused. Great video!
Having the skill to make these videos, impromptu or not, is awesome. The cameras captured plenty to give full value to this little exercise. Your dad's landing was butter.
I like the true shoot from the hip videos, it shows the real side and not ….just editing skills etc, your content is always good, just show real sir, that is the best, good to see your Dad up flying with you. 👍🏻❤️✈️🇺🇸
All of your content is interesting. Yes, your videos documenting a "quest" are very interesting but these are special as well. And any with Chelsea are wonderful.
Loved it. Still aviation, and watching you share with you father is always a great sight. Don’t get me wrong fully edited productions are beautiful but regular simple keeps it realistic for everyday aviation lovers. Don’t forget your roots. Thank you.
I join all the other sentiments. Positive father son time is something that will always last a lifetime and preserving it on video to share with others adds to the occasion.
I loved this. I love your current vision and work, and I miss the more technical videos that got me through my Private Cert training days. I’m on to my Instrument now. I fly a 1976 172M too so its has been great to see how you have updated 991. Thank you for sharing the love of aviation.
Yes this is very nice!! I would love to fly with my dad if he was still with us. You are blessed to be able to fly with your Dad!!!
Great video times like that with your dad are priceless.
A fan of the ad-hoc vid as it puts a unvarnished feel of being along for the deadhead ride. Thanks!
Aviation 101 off the floor is good content… just flying with Josh in all the unplanned glory
Filming capturing moments of escaping time is always a worthy thing. Flying with your Pop was wonderful. Toss in wife and best friend winner.
Your video of a night flight over Austin back in 2020 inspired me to get night current again and go do a similar flight over Minneapolis. So while some of these videos you deem “simple” are still quite inspiring! Thank you for continuing to put up videos like these. Now I want to go get some training in formation flying😉
HI Josh and Chels I am from aus and have enjoyed watching your Chanel to date. I find it refreshing to see you put content on that is raw and real. and enjoyed watching your father learning something new. Good on him. and good on you for being game enough to try something different Well done
I subscribed to this channel for your moment-by-moment explanations of your thought process as a pilot and his plane. I don't much care whether it's an elaborate longform project or even tiny unscripted moments like these. It doesn't matter what WE think of this one; I suspect it'll be a favorite for YOU later in life. As for us, don't worry yourself too much just keep doing what you love. We'll keep coming back.
So glad this one “saw the light of day”. It was awesome in its simple nature. Loved every moment watching the young master teach the older master. Totally enjoy your regular content but this one just warms the heart.
This video brought back memories from long ago (early 1980’s), when as kid USAF instructor (~25 years old), I was teaching introductory formation flying in the T-37 to kids not much younger than me. By the end of the training block, the good ones could do 90 degrees of bank and 3 G’s in “fingertip” (~3’ wing tip clearance) formation! When I think back, man we crammed a lot of training into a short period of time. Your video was beautiful, instructive, and for me, reminiscent of times gone by. Thanks for that.
I like seeing these "extra" clips, keep them coming! I fly simulators and often comment on how tricky it is to fly in formation, and have wondered if it is easier in real life, so it is neat seeing this candid footage.
now josh this was a real back to the good old days when you first started this journey.
Josh - love all the content but fwiw my favorite videos of yours are the ones where we’re just along for the ride with in-cockpit commentary!
josh we love all the videos......the short ones and out of the blue are the best, i loved this one specially flying with your father best memories....... keep it up josh and keep them coming
Josh that was fun. We do this type of formation flying in the DC 10 fire tanker following a King Air 200 lead plane. You did a great job describing the action. It is challenging but when you get it right it is pretty cool. Your dad looks like he is a good stick.
As usual another awesome video Josh!! Being spontaneous most often yields great results. It was simple and fun, but still well executed. Seeing more videos like this I think would be an awesome addition. Formation flying is definitely a bucket list item for me.
Enjoyed. Like seeing you fly with your Dad. Enjoy every day.
Hey Josh, actually it’s really good to see some of these more basic and spur of the moment videos from time to time…
I’ve been doing a few formation flights with some of my friends who also have Jodels. It’s a really cool activity and requires a lot of discipline and hones your basic flying skills.
Yes your videos are amazing hands down but this style every so often makes your channel humble and human. Sometimes you just have to enjoy life which is what I see with this video
Very enjoyable. The fundamental pleasure of flying and plenty of aviation content.
Well, I like your normal content a great deal. But . . . I LOVE this kind of raw, real, in the moment content! The unscripted moments you share with Dad and Chels are just so heart warming and special, it overcomes any imperfections. Which, BTW are from your perspective, not most of your followers. I truly appreciate your efforts to produce polished videos, but from my point of view, videos like this one have just as much value. Not trying to knock you in any way, my respect and admiration for you are immense!
It's a great video, Josh. Glad you can record your flights with your Dad. Not the case for me and my brother. Our Dad is 92, and doesn't fly anymore. Thanks for sharing your father/son special moment. 👍👍
Very nice to see Pops back in a video
Loved the memories with your dad!
Beautiful, thank you for this one!
This was AWESOME! I always love formation flying!
Cheers my friend 🥂
Wishing You Blue Skies & Tailwinds 😊
Brilliant! Thanks for sharing. Love it!
Thank you! Flying is fun and should be. Formal, tech stuff is fine, but it is nice to throttle back and enjoy it.
For "short and sweet" this is pretty good stuff. Kinda harkens me back to when I first watched your videos years and years ago.
Awesome. I lost my dad two years ago in a car wreck. Both him and my mother. So it’s so great to see this. Keep making memories. Keep making time with your parents. Your doing great. Much respect
Appreciate you sharing this impromptu video with us, Josh.
This is so cool. Loved it Josh.
Great vid! Love seeing you with your Dad... and having Chels included... a great moment. Thanks for sharing
.
Kudos for producing quality, educational, and meaningful contents on your channel. This video is highlighting what general aviation is all about: cherish the time spent flying with families and friends and the spectacular scenery seen from the air. This specific video is also an introductory of formation flight for pilots who have never done one, but are thinking of doing it. Appreciate you pointing the educational resource for one to learn more about the intricacy of a formation flight in addition to seeking formation flight experts for ground school and flight training like every endorsement pilot should get in one's logbook; this will ensure the safety, gain the experience and the proficiency of any formation flight operation.
Great video ! I love that your flying with your dad . Enjoy those moments while you can.
Thank you so much for sharing the formation flying. I loved it brought back memories of when I did a lot of formation flying back in Australian, I live in the USA now and really love your content
Loved it! Yes do more.
Love, love, love the spontaneity of this video. There’s so much you show in this that very educational. You definitely should do more of this!
I really enjoyed this format! Even with my limited experience, I know the other plane is a lot closer than the video makes it look! Always great to see your dad in the cockpit and the two of you sharing adventures!!
Loved it. Pretty much a family affair. You produce awesome videos on flying and video production. Two of my loves also. Cheers.
Josh, Great video! Thanks as always.
Lovely. Nice warm story 😊
Absolutely AWESOME Josh and Chelsey and your special co-pilots ! Not only your training-in-flight narration, Josh, but also the multi-angles video presentation of it all. How special to have your Dad alongside you as he obviously enjoys the experience of it all... and also to have your friend alongside Chelsey as well. Wow! Not being a pilot myself, the closest I ever came to flying in a sense of "formation"... was back when I went riding street motorcycles with a friend as a pair on so many of the paved county roads here in Yakima County, Washington state. Thank you for your excellent and most enjoyable presentation all of you! 🛩👍
Love this type of content ❤
Wonderful video, Josh. Keep 'em coming like this. Long ones, short ones, we'll keep watching. Thanks!
Awesome Video, Thank you for sharing !
This was awesome. Absolutely worth posting 👏🏻
