  • We land a Bonanza in the Grand Canyon. I fly a helicopter for the first time. And we take off with a 9300 ft density altitude in Telluride.

    I know I've said this before, but your efforts are huge and we really appreciate them. I'm a logistics guy...it's what I do for a living. So, when I see something like this it just blows me away at how hard it is to pull something like this off. And when all the footage is shot from multiple cameras at various angles, including drone shots, you still have to sit in front of a computer and create your story in the form of a massive edit! And create you do, and you do it SO well.... Thanks Matt for everything you do!

    I flew out of Telluride November 1987 on Frontier Airlines. There were snow flurries that afternoon my guess it was MVFR. It was a small dual turboprop (about 10 passenger) and I remember the first thing we did was climb to 18,000.

    An absolutely phenomenal video Matt! I have never experienced anything like this in my entire life. The Bonanza is such a versatile aircraft that can land at small airports where larger planes would have difficulty. Your flying skills are right up there with the best! You have total command of the Bonanza. This was the most spectacular video I have ever watched. Thanks for making it for all your viewers! You earned my subscription!

    The high wing of the Cessna let’s you get out of the sun & rain. Better for sightseeing. With the IO 550 it’s a great performer & load carrying machine. The Bonanza is great as well. Much better handling. Many Beech Bonanzas used Magnesium flight controls (except rudder on straight tails …maybe). Problematic with Aluminum rivets. Reskinning is possible but very expensive. Great videos!

Next time you're in Boulder take a heli tour with Papillion or Maverick and they will land you in the Grand Canyon.

    Great video thanks! Just one minor comment, most people would take the title to mean you landed in the Grand Canyon that we all know from visits and pictures, technically you were only about 2 thirds of the way between Vegas and that well known part of the canyon, and about 2000 feet higher than that part of the canyon. About 80 miles away I think is Bar10 from the big canyon parts.

    As a former owner of a T-210N and right seat of Beach Bonanza with flop control, Duchess and King Airs, the Cessna has more shoulder to shoulder room. The Bonanza is 3 - 5 knots faster. Nonetheless, private aviation is fun way to go slowly. Enjoyed your clip.

    Superb video. A friend and I were thinking about renting a plane to fly from Phoenix to the Grand Canyon, and after going there earlier in the year, and seeing it at ground level, I sorta walked back a bit, in favor of returning and doing some hikes. After seeing this, I'm reconsidering. Either way it's a win and excellent adventures.
