      Thanks for the compliment ... just my own footage, compiled into a series, of the flying I do around the world, as a pilot or passenger. Hoping to inspire next generation of pilots.

    Hello Deon Im a low hour CPL with instrument. Im still trying to acquire my first flying job. I have always been interested in being a bush pilot in the African Safari. I was wondering if there was a way I could skype with you and just ask you questions about how it works and what life is like ect.? Thank you for these amazing videos.

      Hello Ethan, since it’s been a year for your post, how did you go about finding that first job? I’m asking as I’m on the same boat, just finished my CPL and instrument rating.

      @PilotCalhoun Рік тому

      @@mrsako7223 Yeah man Im doing great now almost have 900tt. I ended up getting checked out in 182 and then going through the jumpersaway course. Was offered a job before I even finished the course as skydive pilot. I had 292tt when I finished the 4 day course. Built time in summer 2021 as skydive pilot then got a part 91 job flying lawyers now. Its tough but if your persistent and willing to sacrifice a lot you can do it too.
