Thanks for the updated view of FLL, Martin. I worked as an airport firefighter at FLL for 32 years. Haven't been on the field since 2012 and the new R/W, 10R. It was interesting to see it from an aerial approach. Watching you taxi across the field brought back a lot of memories.
Hi Stephen, thanks for your comment. I didn't realize 10R was a fairly new runway - this was my first visit to FLL. We liked the airport. Thank you for helping keep everyone safe there for so many years! Regards, Martin
That building you pointed out on approach is the new Hard Rock hotel they are building. It is supposed to be in the shape of a guitar. Really loved the video by the way, and was so happy to see my home airport and MY HOUSE! Lol
Hi Martin, I like the way you put the instructions from ATC on screen as sometimes they are not to clear, other times they are, but this is a great help. I also like the way you describe what you have done, about to do etc. Love flying with you. Stay safe up there. Glad you both enjoyed your break away. Shame we didn't see the old lane the Mrs commented about, but we can't expect you to not put safety first and show us everything when the camera is not pointing in the right direction. Thanks for sharing your flight with us.
Thanks for the encouraging feedback, and I'm happy to hear from you (and others) that the ATC captions are helpful. I'll keep doing that then. Regards, Martin
Thanks for this:) I was born in Ft. Lauderdale and lived in Hollywood till I was 9. That Guitar is the Hollywood Hard Rock Hotel and I lived 5 mins down the street from there as a kid, it was nothing but alligator wrestling and a cheap place to buy cigarettes and booze back then;) I go for my Private Pilot Checkride on the 13th of next month and I can't wait to do these trips as well! Keep flying:)
Another great video. Use to hang out on Hollywood beach every spring break while kids were in school. Working on my instrument ground school. Rewatching all your videos. Keep em coming
Thanks for the comment, George. Keep working on that instrument course and rating. I just passed the written for my commercial certificate this morning, hoping to take the check ride sometime this spring. Never-ending learning! :-) Best, Martin
Martin, I've been enjoying your videos over the last few months while I've been stuck on the ground! Thanks for answering the "why you land at big airports" question. I have been meaning to ask you for a while. I generally land at the smaller airports on the outskirts for the cheaper gas, fees, etc. but there is something to be said for the conveniences of the larger airports. We're flying in our Cherokee Six through Ft Lauderdale to Nassau in October and looking forward to the international adventure/challenges!
Glad you liked it. For sure, taxiing on the ground is what makes these large airports special. The flying part isn't all that different. That's why I always focus on the ground activities. - Martin
Just attended the Great Minnesota Aviation Gathering and heard about several folks who have made the trip to the Bahamas in their C182. Imagine it'd be a cinch in your Bonanza from IA.
If you do decide to take 0TB to the Bahamas then I recommend going to Banyan Pilot Shop at FXE. They can help you with the paperwork and can rent you a raft, inflatable jackets, a PLB, and any other equipment you may not have. Also, bring cash. They take USD and some of the smaller islands don't have ATMs or take cards.
That "old plane" is a Beech 18 with the volpar conversion for the tricycle gear. Tell Mrs. Becky we said hi and that while the Everglades may be pretty it's full of stuff that will sting you, bite you, and eat you. But I know she knows that. Can't wait till the company dumps those ten's and eleven's but it won't be anytime soon. Those number two engines may be cool to look at but they are one MAJOR PAIN to work in. Glad you enjoyed the trip I'd of stroked out over the FBO bill but then again not near as bad as Boston.
Hey Mike, glad to see you chime in on the Beech 18 and the DC-10 - or did they get converted to an MD-10? You are right about the glades. An engine failure in that area would not have been fun. In June we'll come back to Tennessee for the BeechTalk fly-in. All the best, Martin
@@martinpauly They are all MD10's now. Have been that way for at least ten years. Did one of those air boat tours through the glades a few years ago I don't see how people don't get lost in there. With ya on engine don't fail me know. One of the places I'd skip for flying over at night. Once again hope to see ya'll soon.
Great story telling... very interesting optics, in clear air you could see visible moisture in the prop and trailing edge of wing. No icing obviously, but prime example how you can have moisture with no clouds. Thank you Martin
Awesome add of the invoice. Its always nice to see real numbers. $30/day for parking.... not pleseant, but prolly the same to park a car in the airport garage.
Thanks for another fun video. Have a confession..I can’t get “the drill” out of my mind even though I am SEL! Even was reciting it driving down I-84...my wife thought I had gone loco.
You should stop and see us in Valdosta. I'm a controller there. I also fly a musketeer, but hope to upgrade to a bonanza after getting my instrument rating.
Thanks for the invite. I've flown through your airspace a number of times on the way to or from Florida, but never landed there so far. Regards, Martin
If you ever go back to the area, maybe try North Perry. Gas is a lot cheaper and it is about the same distance to Hollywood from FLL. Although the drive down the A1A is nicer coming from FLL.
Martin, Can you imagine landing a Baron at Frankfurt, Munich or Dusseldorf ? & even if they would let you, the landing fee wouldn't be $10 ! God Bless America.............
You are absolutely correct. It would cost a fortune, and in some places it just wouldn't be allowed. Pilots in the US often don't realize how good we have it here. - Martin
Excellent production Martin - as always! I was recently at Simcom for my TBM training. South Florida certainly has its appeal. Hope you can come fly "downunder" sometime...
I've not yet been to Australia. I'm not exactly a huge fan of snakes and spiders larger than me, but then I guess they have some of those in Florida, too... Regards, Martin
@@martinpauly We also have The outback, The barrier reef, The Kimberley, Arnhem land and spectacular beaches ( google Whitehaven beach)..... Shout out if you head this way. Always looking for excuses to fly my tbm. (Prob could russle up a bonanza) Regards Charles
@Enteraname yeah..no doubt... I suppose it depends on how far you are flying and where... quick 45 minute flights will be cheaper than commercial... but longer flights can be more expensive. EnjoY!
You are correct in that a commercial flight would have been cheaper than flying the Bonanza. But like any hobbies, I fly not to save money, but because I love doing it. That's a different angle when it comes to the expenses. Further, on this particular trip I went to the Sun 'n Fun fly-in on the way back. So I got a two-for-the-price-of-one deal. :-) Best regards, Martin
Hallo Martin, erinnert mich an einen Flug von FXE nach Marsh Harbour, den ich vor vielen Jahren in einer C172 gemacht habe. Klang im Film so an, als ob das mal eine Option auch für Dich wäre. Kann ich nur empfehlen. Wie immer - Du machst wunderbare Filme. Thumbs Up.
Vielen Dank, Marc. Ich denke bei diesen Flügen manchmal an unseren gemeinsamen Flug nach Stuttgart zurück. Was war das damals für ein Abenteuer - nach heutigen Massstäben eigentlich nur ein "normaler" Flug. Aber alle Anfänge sind halt klein. Ich werde übrigens Ende September mit meiner Familie ein paar Tage in Ulm sein. Wäre schön, wenn wir uns dort mal treffen könnten. Liebe Grüsse, Martin
Thanks for posting! A real inspiration! Would you mind sharing a few of the operating stats of the Bonanza, please? I am interested in your cruse speed as indicated, GPH, your leaning procedure, and what type of engine you have. Thanks!
Hi Murray. Two reasons I did not do that on this flight: (1) I could tell from the radio and from ADS-B "in" how many airplanes they were trying to get in on 10L; I think I would have gotten in the way. (2) For the videos in particular l do like the longer, more "scenic" taxi routes, and I knew landing on 10R would provide just that. So it worked out great for me. Of course, if you're just trying to land and get to the Jetscape FBO, then yes, the northern runway is much better. All the best, Martin
Hi Cameron, FXE would probably have been cheaper for parking, but the fuel I bought was less expensive at FLL than at FXE. Overall I think it was pretty close, with maybe a slight advantage for FXE. Having said that, I love the experience at large, busy airports, and FLL was a bit closer to our destination on the ground. Best regards, Martin
@ Martin Pauly. Hey Mr. Pauly, Been following your video since I started training as a student pilot. I have a learn a lot from your video ( especially when i comes to radio communications). Thank for going to em busy airports. A quick question... are you charging those camera whey recording? Thanks.
Glad to hear you found my videos helpful. Regarding charging: yes, on longer flights I use USB charging cables to keep the batteries full during the flight. I do that with a USB power brick - works really well. Regards, Martin
Hi Samantha, yes, I have been to CGI once - we picked up our young niece there several years ago when she was visiting us. I remember they had a nice airport restaurant. Regards, Martin
@@martinpauly your welcome sir i've never been to the cape airport but i have been by it SEVERAL times going to my grandmas anothe hour & a half futher down the road
Another great video Martin. I have a quick question though. How do you power your camera's in flight? Do you just keep turning on and off your camera throughout the duration or do you use some kind of external power source and have them powered for the whole trip? And if you do use a external power source, what do you use for that? Thanks and keep up the good videos.
Hi Derrek, the GoPros can take external power while recording, through a USB charging cable. For any long recordings, I keep them powered this way, using little power bricks for USB power. That has worked really well for me. Regards, Martin
Great vid Martin 👍.. I have A36 just bought 1991, I know you had one time a gear problem and you had to crank it manually, well I had gear issue myself but the opposite, gears won’t retract , recycled circuit breaker fuse twice still green lights no retraction ! I’m having it checked. My question is : what was the issue with yours? Have you heard of overheated gear motor? I was practicing approaches and trying to manage power settings with gear up & down (about 7 times over 1 hour practice) was told that might happen ...curious to know ?! Thx again .. 🙏🏻❤️
Jamil, the first thing I'd do is put the plane up on jacks, move the gear lever to "up", and see if the gear motor gets power. If it does, it's time to overhaul the gear motor. Otherwise, it might be the switch or the wiring. Practicing approaches the way you did is the right way. A working gear motor in good shape should do this without problems. Regards, Martin
Are those the new Bose in-ear headsets? My understanding was that they work well mostly in pressurized aircraft and that the A20s should be used instead for small aircraft.
Good guess, but no. They ARE in-ear, but they're called 'Halo', made by QuietTechnologies. They are similar to the Clarity Aloft. They have very good attenuation, unlike the Bose which as you said is more designed for a jet environment. Regards, Martin
It's on hold, pending completion of my commercial certificate. I just passed the written this morning. Need to schedule the check ride. After that, I'll complete the multi-engine rating; that way I get the multi add-on for both private and commercial. - Martin
Great video Martin. Was that yellow amphibian parked over at jetscape the same Pilatus that we saw at Sun and Fun? Bobby from flying Doodles did a video on the plane, and I believe he did it in fort Lauderdale so just curious if you made the same connection
yes, that's the one, if you stop the video at the right moment you can see that it has the same tail number: N122DM. ua-cam.com/video/a0jm5vgK6mg/v-deo.html
Ruben, I used an ND filter on this flight, but on the really bright, sunny days, you can still see a little bit of the propeller artifacts. To my knowledge, there is no small (let alone affordable) camera with global shutter, so all we can do is try to control exposure and limit the effect. Regards, Martin
@@martinpauly well, the cheapest camera with global shutter is the Blackmagic Micro Cinema, which would record also with a much higher dynamic range than your current setup. Maybe worth considering in the future :)
Agreed. Of course, parking for five days was a little more than ten bucks. But then we only live once, right? Might as well do some fun things along the way. - Martin
! ! ! AWESOME ! ! ! But You Were a Bit TOO LOW ! I We Were Flying In a Comercial Airline, That Should Be a FOCA (Flight Operation Quality Assurance), What Could End In An Egregious Case. And We Don’t Want That, Do We ! So, Next Time, TWO REDS & TWO WHITES, All Right ? Be Safe ! Best Regards !

nice video, but i think i will stay with small turf runways......
Nothing wrong with small grass fields - I learned to fly on one of those... many years ago.

What program do you run on your iPad?
Jon, the EFB app I use on my iPad is called WingX Pro. It connects to my Lynx transponder for ADS-B data.

One of these days, yes!

Haha - that's funny! :-)

Isn't there a good camera with global shutter for your front view to get rid of this bloody artefacts/flickering of your propeller? 🤔
Ruben, I used an ND filter on this flight, but on the really bright, sunny days, you can still see a little bit of the propeller artifacts. To my knowledge, there is no small (let alone affordable) camera with global shutter, so all we can do is try to control exposure and limit the effect.
Regards, Martin
@@martinpauly okay, sad. Still a good video though!
@@martinpauly well, the cheapest camera with global shutter is the Blackmagic Micro Cinema, which would record also with a much higher dynamic range than your current setup. Maybe worth considering in the future :)
The reason that DC10 Fedex is heavy.....they don't call it Ft. Liquordale for nothing. Jack Daniels delivery.
10$ to land on an international airport? That money could be poorer spend 😙🎶
Agreed. Of course, parking for five days was a little more than ten bucks. But then we only live once, right? Might as well do some fun things along the way.

I We Were Flying In a Comercial Airline, That Should Be a FOCA (Flight Operation Quality Assurance),
What Could End In An Egregious Case.
And We Don’t Want That, Do We !
