Cross-Country flying over hundreds of miles takes a little more foresight than a mere 50nm flight requires. In this video, I'll walk you through my thought process in planning a 1,000+ mile trip in a Cessna 172 that can only go 390nm at a time.

Josh, I was the Bonanza that pulled in to self serve pump at Pecos behind you. I was going back to Texas from Payson Arizona so that strong headwind plaguing you and Chelsea, helped me break all my records times going home. Sorry I wasn’t 10 minutes earlier to have the chance to say hi in person. Great video! Mike / Bonanza N228DM
These videos are 1000 times better than anything on Netflix.
The way you showed us on Garmin and explained the different legs of your trip was 1 of the best videos you ever made, thanks so much.
I picked up on the three strikes on Mike Pateys video and implemented it immediately. It's enabled me to make a decision I was already pretty sure was the right one, but having the decision making system in place beforehand gives you an absolute method for determining whether or not to fly. Nice to see you practicing it too. I think it's a fantastic idea.
It's just a good metric to hold yourself to, but you have to be honest about what counts as a "strike." To me, its anything that adds a variable/complexity to the flight!
I know that there are a lot of online flight training. But Josh, you explain things well. I enjoy learning from you.
I'm glad to hear it! Thanks
Matt Guthmiller take notes, this is how a professional plans. Always thorough and safe sir, we appreicate the example!
You had me at “Brisket Breakfast Tacos”. I could just imagine how awesome that coffee smelled and tasted. Something about early morning when you’re travelling in good company and good spirits.
That fuel check habit is a good one, like checking your tires every time you stop in a truck. That habit has kept it down to just two blown tires (both bad recaps), and quite a few routine flat repairs that were caught as I did my walkaround. Basic good habits combined with your go/no-go thought process are the only way to do it. Great video.
Another great video, Josh and Chelsea! I love how you guys set an example for aviators in not only your aeronautical decision-making, but in your use of procedures and checklist consistently.
It never hurts to have a mechanic in the house. lol You make good videos that I find interesting even though I am not a pilot and, at 81 I doubt I ever will be. To add to that, you have a good eye for the camera and a good hand at the editing. Thanks for allowing me to come along.
Good morning from Michigan. I want to say it has been a total pleasure to watch you from the beginning. To see you grow as a young man, I know your dad is truly so proud of you. A student many years ago I was so close to completing my ppl, but the roles of a dad took me away from my training. With 3 kids it was a point where I had to step out of the airplane. 5 years ago GOD decided to give my daughter her wings at age 28. It’s been a struggle but as I watch your videos and hear your calm words of wisdom to the aviation community it gives a feeling of being in the sky with you. So as I watch your channel i I find myself flying N80991 in my chair. Being in the sky above the clouds gives me a sense of peace and some how feel closer to my daughter in heaven. At age 62 I still feel healthy and confident to attempt flight training, wife and I are working on making a move to the North Myrtle Beach area. I hope after the stress of moving I can get back. Into the left seat. But until then I fly in my chair. Please keep up the great work. Oh you have a beautiful lady with you who shows the same passion. One wedding I would love to attend…..fly safe continue with the passion as you do. As a dad i know how proud he is of you.. I hope he is doing well. Sorry for the long message… God Bless you and friends and family. Ever in the area of KPTK love to say hello.
Also from Michigan and also lost my daughter at 46 leaving me to raise her now 12 year old daughter by myself. I've got 10 years on you but like you, I enjoy Josh and Chelsea's stuff too. Best wishes on your move.
Yes. It pays off to wait for better weather. Words to live by. I once pushed it in bad weather to get there, but never again.
My father was an aircraft accident investigator. He told me a story about flying once over mountains, at night, in a snow storm in his A36, navigating with vor/dme and charts. It was high stress, high workload, and any one that enjoys that is nuts. After that, he only ever flew in "severe clear".
My d
First flight ever was in Chandler... the place is dear to my heart.
Great video as ALWAYS
I also loved that T-shirt!! I have always liked your 3 strike system! As I get older, I have added several no-go's, and reduced the 3 strike to 2 strike. No specific reason, I'll just be 72 next month, and I like taking my time more these days. Great video guys, appreciate y'all !! 8) --gary
Having a hard metric to hold yourself to is always good!
@@Aviation101I’ve fully adopted your 3 strike system.
The additional educational context on flight planning, avionics, and your mechanical issues was great to see and hugely appreciated.
The high wind rotors near the mountain ranges between California/Nevada/Arizona are no joke. We had a plane that went down because the pilot flew too low and was caught in the downdraft, all occupants perished.
Walking us through your decision process is fantastic!
I always learn / (reminded) from your videos..... thanks you two...
Love the detail, thank you for the video.
Thanks for all the great content Josh, I always learn something new!!! Safe flying brother.
I like the way you follow checklists with care and deliberation, a great example for beginners and experts alike.
Actually love you two together. What a magical pair.. All the best from Scotland!
I like that you go over the flight plan showing the charts and explaining every step.
Fantastic and as usual I can't wait for the next one !.
Great video Josh and Chelsea and really enjoy your callouts. Learned a bunch.
Thanks for taking the time to bring us along!
Ive been following you for 9 years now, since day 1 almost!! Im happy to see how far youve gotten, keep up the good work!!!
Hands up! The greatest long cross country video out there, shows the fun but also showz some very important ADM stuff! When to say no is agreat addition!
Josh, I am watching your content for many years & I can say you are my fav GA youtube content creator. Your content is pure gold. Best wishes for 2024.
Great video and wonderful example of solid decision making. Looking forward to the next installment!!
Great great video. I’ve been flying for 47 years and I still learn from your videos. Keep doing what your doing.
Amazing stuff. Can’t wait for the next one!!!!!!
This video covered so many excellent points. Thanks from the low hour just for fun pilot
Yes! More insights on your planning process please!!!
Really nice debrief of the flight planning as well. Love the details and calculations being made so clear. I'd love to see more of that!
Been watching your videos for years now. Found your channel before I started my private pilot. Just now became a Captain at a legacy carrier. Thank you for all your hard work providing excellent content, I’ve continuously learned lessons from your videos over the years and truly enjoy your content. Keep up the great videos and “share your aviation!”(throw back) Cheers!
Deciding to stay put and wait for weather is such a great reason to enjoy where you are!
Thank you for this great video and story! I really appreciated how you talked through good decision making in whether a flight is a go or no go towards the end. My takeaway is to enjoy the journey and respect the process!
Great job sir! Keep the content coming! I love how you maximize the Garmin Pilot App with all phases of flight checklist.
Great Video. Thank you for posting.
Glad you're here ! ! !
I did my flight training in Goodyear and Chandler was my first parallel runway experience. Great to see you guys flying arround there! Thank you for the great video as always!
Awesome! Great airport for sure.
Welcome back. It's good to see you both again.
Great video. Reinforcing decision making with some great scenery.
Another excellent video! As much as I enjoy the views you provide, I really enjoy the safety tips, procedures and checklists. Three strike rule has always been a part of my ADM process, it’s the simple things we can do to remove risks. Josh and Chelsea, thanks for all the work you both put into these videos. I’m looking forward to part 2.
Awesome to hear it - I'm really leaning into more safety tips and "how to go about this" type of stuff in the videos.
Awesome video! I am always learning something from these! 😁
Sweet! Thanks
Awesome video. I've been thinking about getting my PPL for a while. That view makes it all worth it. You got a new subscriber 👍
Great episode - so well filmed and edited. The commentary makes me feel like I'm there with you - well done. Looking forward to the next one.
Thanks so much for the informative videos! I met you at SnF a couple of years back and have been watching since. Recently got my Private and I appreciate the help your videos brought to my learning process!
Fantastic! Congrats on the Private!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I am so happy every time I hear someone refer to the 3 strikes rule. Way too many possibilities for things to start going wrong. Appreciate you.
Thanks for the support!
you guys are totally awesome, thanks for the videos
I got my private all the way to commercial multi at Frost in Las Cruces. Amazing people and such a good flight school! And as always great video, cheers.
Loved this episode after flying Las Cruces to Pecos last spring!
Great quality aviation content, as always! 🙂 It gives true motivation to plan another big cross-country trip!
This channel gets better and better. I took a trip from San Diego to New Braunfels last year and stopped in both Pecos (on the way back) and Chandler (outbound). We experienced a lot of mod turbulence over the AZ mountains and around El Paso as well as high winds over west TX. Brought back lots of memories, looking forward to the next video.
Awesome! That's quite a trek. Half way to the opposite coast.
Thanks Josh, your videos always makes my day.
Thanks so much!
yet again another great watch as always josh fair play!
It was the updraft off a mountain wave that gave me much more respect for them. Flying home (S50) from Moses Lake on an IFR clearance (I like to get those even on clear days when crossing the mountains) found myself 9 degrees nose down throttle back and still climbing at a thousand fpm. Quickly got a block clearance up to 13,000' (was at 9000') and rode that wave over most of the eastern side of the pass going toward Seattle. As for the three strike rule, I once halted at strike one! Early morning flight from South Puget Sound to my old college area found the entire region under a known icing condition. The ink hadn't dried on my instrument ticket so I tried several different routes even going down to Portland and up the gorge. No dice. It was all ice! That kept me on the ground -- wishing I was flying but knowing that there would be other days.
I have 5 hours logged. My CFI told me today that a good habit I have is saying out loud everything that I’m doing while I do it. I picked that habit up from watching you Josh. Thanks for being a good example!
I like that you brought back some basic principles of fight planning here.
More to come!
Love your post! Love your story! Love Aviation i fly thru both of you! Thanks.
Blue skies! Great lessons and discussion regarding your decision making process. Thanks!
I know you are always safe in all your videos but I like the emphasis on the 3 strikes that you, Mike, and Juan have been hammering lately.
Great job on the flight planning! Love to see a CFI go through the procedures on every flight.
I like the crew environment you guys have. Calling for checklists and everything!
Great fun. Thanks for showing the planning and numbers, it was very informative.
Thanks! More to come.
Love your videos You two are Awesome!!!!
Thank you for sharing and for the pleasure to watch your adventures 🙏
Thanks for watching!
Your videos just get better and better. This was a good lesson in VFR long cross country flying. I heard a pilot on my scanner telling center that he had 100 kt tailwind today. I didn't catch his altitude. I assume it was an airliner in the flight levels. We had some extremely gusty winds in the Weimar/Schulenburg area today.
I lived in Chandler for many years. Flew my first discovery flight at CHD. Thanks for your videos.
You guys are awesome!! Great video. Love your safety first style!! See ya next time.
Josh, your production quality is the best of all the aviation UA-camrs whom I follow. Your aural procedure flows and checklist discipline are impeccable and a reminder to all of us to fly like a pro. Plus, Chels is just so dang cute, and turns wrenches to boot! She’s a keeper! Please keep posting up!
Fantastic video! This is one of, if not my favorite aviation channel on UA-cam.
Super cool seeing this flight. Recently flew from KHYI to KMYF in San Diego and stopped at these airports aswell!
Excellent video! I would feel very comfortable flying with you Josh. It's a pleasure to watch all your videos, smart, safe, and very good advice. 👍
Thank you for another great video and wish I could have met you in Chandler to say hello- that's my home base. Really appreciate the rationalization for the three strikes explained and just how easy it could be to be harried or overlook looming conditions that could be fatal. That was a pretty wicked low pressure system that dipped down to AZ - it did lead to some great hikes and a staycation for my wife and I in Sedona for her Birthday weekend. Amazing to hike the red rocks with snow. Love this state!
I'm always learning something new from your vids, Josh. Much Aporeciated. - John
I'm glad to hear it! Thanks!
This channel has been, is and potentially will always be THE aviation channel for me! Amazing content, quality and an amazing pilot, well, two now! Good job and way to go!
Love your videos
Love your videos!
5:30 that was cool to hear the check-in when tower came up. I mean, I didn't think about being in the airspace at that moment.
7:10 wowww, that sunrise.
I really like seeing the "adventure" video combined with some teaching!
Always a great education
I wanna get intro Aviation and this video is so Amazon at showing all the small things like the check list that makes me think about what it means to be a safe smart pilot. I live it❤❤ big ups
Excellent video, as always!
So glad to see another series. The drought is over!
Hey gang. Honestly I think that's the best shot one you've done so far. Looks phenomenal in 4K. It's great to see you going again. I also wanted to say; the panel looks fabulous! Cheers~
Fantastic video, as a student pilot I REALLY enjoyed the extra details, reading it in a book is just not the same!
Hey guys. This is the best video I have seen you post. And I have been following for a while. "What's your vector, Victor? I love the precision of the flying. The videography is stunning. Thank you for sharing with us.
Love the longer videos!
NOW a REQUIRED WATCH for my students.... Well done man.
Great show. Love your plane.
When is started flying plane is was a Grumman American AA-1B Trainer, them retire Grumman OV-1. Lots of fun
Another great video! This reminds me of my old instructor: By taking the decision not to fly in certain circomstances you prove you're a good pilot!
Love the new dashboard more every time you show it.
I use the 3 strike method myself good call. If you have time to spare go by air .... lol great video guys!
I got excited when I saw Mt San Jacinto at the end of your video.
When I saw those carrots Chelsea pulled out, my first thought was “everything in Texas really is bigger!” Enjoyed the content.
😂😂😂 Mr. & Mrs Pegasus! 😂😂😂
Really enjoyed this one. I miss flying cross country in a small airplane. I started watching your channel when I was a student pilot back in 2015. Today I'm a 135 FO after being a CFII during all of 2023. Aviation101 has been a staple through it all.
I'm so glad to hear that - thanks for the kind words! Never too late to buy your own plane and take on some side-adventures. :-)
Great video Josh!
Hands down the coolest c172 flight deck I’ve ever seen. I’m spoiled enough with a g500 and a gtn650. I couldn’t imagine having all this.
Another awesome video
I earned my PPL at KCHD in 1999. I was a lineman there for a while too. Love that airport - sure has changed alot
It's a nice airport, FBO, and controllers!
