Your Family is 100% pure awesomeness ! Thanks for setting an example. Quite a gal you are raising William. Not Jealous but impressed. Keep on her on those Checklist. Another GREAT day! we woke up. :)
Hello Mr. Bill. I flew the entire route of Alina's flight, from SC65 to KLAL via FS2004 using a Kolb Firefly. The flight took 8 hours and 15 minutes and consumed 23.47 gallons. Consumption was 2.85 g/h or 10.8 liters/hour. Thankful for everything, health, peace and good flights.
@@williamh.scottv438 Yes. Most simulators do. You have the ability to turn on weather and adjust what kind of weather you wish to have. Also, unlike Alina's ultralight, ultralights on a simulator have autopilot control which you can turn on or off as you wish. So on a simulator you can make things very very close to reality, or you can have the autopilot fly your aircraft for an hour or two while you take a nap.
Greetings from Belarus! Just wanted to say thank you for inspiring me and probably many other people to get into aviation. Unfortunately private aviation is almost non-existent here, but i'm planning to buy myself a paramotor soon! Thanks again to both of you and have great flights! 😊 UPD: Also it would be super-nice to see more videos with communication audio. Maybe there is sobe recording devices that could be placed in the live between radio and headphones
You can get small external battery packs that can be zip tied almost anywhere. That's how I power various cameras on longer flights that would deplete an internal camera battery.
Yes, on 2/3 of the route it varied between 320/240° and intensity between 6 and 12 knots. In the rest, the winds varied between 220/140° and intensity between 8 and 12 kt. Thank you very much and see you soon.
This video title has Alina flying from KCWV to KBHC. The only airport I could find with the call letters of KCWV are for an airport in North Central; West Virginia. This would be an impossible Non-Stop flight for Alina. The distance between KCWV & KBHC is about 200 MI. Alina's ultralight can't carry enough fuel to fly that far Non-Stop. I believe the airport she is actually departing from is 3J1 Ridgeland South Carolina to baxley municipal airport in the state of Georgia. The distance between these two airports is only 100 miles which would be easily attainable by her ultralight's fuel capacity. For those wanting to recreate this leg of her journey on a flight simulator, just use 3j1 as your departure airport and Kbhc is your next stop.
She departed from Claxton-Evan’s county (CWV) and landed at Baxley municipal (BHC). The entire route is SC65 KJZI 3J1 KBHC KCWV KBHC KHOE 24J 6J8 X35 KZPH KLAL
Sort of... It works ok, but the ANR doesn't work that well in the wind. Lynx make a better open cockpit headset but the one I have doesn't have bluetooth
Fantastic love to see, my respects Alina for your age. 👍 My only constructive criticism, from what i see you /Dad don't seem to interact with the comments from subscribers. Just saying. 👍
I do. She doesn't do as much because her focus outside of flying is being a girl getting good grades. My primary interaction is to filter out comments that are inappropriate. Secondly , I try to answer some of the people's questions that aren't easily answered by a Google search or by watching more than 1 of the videos I've posted of her. In other words, I try to answer questions when I feel I can be helpful. But really UA-cam is, and must remain, an afterthought. My first duty is to Alina and my family. I'm sure you can understand. Thank you for your comment.
Bill, is there any way we could hear Alina's comms? It's obvious she's having trouble hearing the other end. She keeps pressing her headset to her ear. Perhaps a helmet? BTW, the goggles are awesome.
Its possible. There are a few other variables that might not be evident from the videos, like recording bluetooth and radio, wire count, and set up times which come into play when on a long cross country flight. I have a better chance (but still little success) recording the audio on local flights because I have plenty of time to set up prior to her flight. Check out the yorktown video full length to see what I mean. What I need is a headset or helmet with radio (so she can talk to other airplanes) and Bluetooth (so she can talk to me over the phone) and also has a built-in digital recorder that records to an SD card and makes a loud beep when the recording is started and stopped.
@@williamh.scottv438 Another fellow UA-camr, "mmatt" who flies ultra lights has all that figured out; cameras, coms, etc. Took him awhile to coordinate everything but now he's got the perfect set up. Just thought I'd suggest this, as he's got a great flying channel, too...
Everything is fine, but there is one caveat. There should be no obstacles, wires and so on near the throttle lever. The hand should follow the straight, shortest path. All the best!

Very nice 5 point harness! Glad to see you guys prioritizing safety! Says a lot about you and your commitment to keeping things safe! Kudos!
Alina is doing better and better, you can tell she’s gaining confidence! Such a pleasure to watch.
Another great video Alina! I wish I had enough courage to fly a ultra light! But now that I came across your channel I don't have to!
Such a natural pilot, always looking around.
Love the videos! Do a live stream soon I have so many questions!

Does the simulator have winds also?

KCBH does not come up on SkyVector William. Regards from England
Sorry KBHC
Where are you from? Beautiful scenery. 😍

Thanks for the tip
Love from India ❤… super
Love watching your videos. I flew an ultralight gyrocopter for 15 years. They are a lot of fun. Give one a try.
Yes, on 2/3 of the route it varied between 320/240° and intensity between 6 and 12 knots. In the rest, the winds varied between 220/140° and intensity between 8 and 12 kt. Thank you very much and see you soon.
Just above Alina's GPS unit, the white horizontal "Stick" thing - is that her VHF antenna?
Thanks, great stuff & really enjoy these...
No. It's just a pole that I use to attach the other 360.camera
Never neglect your preflight. Always go through every boring part.

It would be interesting to watch the flights from several camera views. More editing I know but it would feel like I'm flying alongside.
Look for the videos with "VR" or "2D" in the title.
Thanks for sharing! 😎👍🏻
Looks like the thermals were cooking on that flight. Alina certainly knows how to handle them.
Моя Алька летает, летает. Как вчера была пупсик, сегодня лётчик...
Not to be critical but, KBCH?
Typo. KBHC
Is that Bose A20 working okay for her?

Whats your reasoning on the band aids?

❤️Alina Plz Aerobics, Can you do it😘 fly inverted, Post more🎉
Her airplane is not capable of inverted flight.
