FLIGHT CHOPS DISCLAIMER:
I am a "weekend warrior" private pilot, I fly for fun with no intentions of going commercial. I have had my PPL for over 15 years, but still consider each flight a learning experience - I generally take detailed notes after each flight to remind myself what went well or what I could do to improve.... Having the GoPro cameras to record flights like this is invaluable. I find these self analysis videos very helpful in my constant quest to improve, and am happy to share. Feedback is invited; however, please keep it positive.
Hey everyone, Ryan here from Steve's video. Thanks for all your comments and for supporting Flight Chops. Im happy to answer any questions on the Bearhawk or on the content of the video.
Ryan Van Haren another excellent video. Thanks for taking the flight chops fam for an awesome ride. You guys are living the dream!
Tower, this is ghost rider, requesting a flyby.
Great Video!
how much does it typically cost to build a bear hawk like that with that avionics kit?
Nice Plane! Who else gets to fly with you for a scenic view of Vancouver to Horsebay? lol....I pay gas/oil? lol....
This one brought back memories. Back in 1980, I took my dad for a Vancouver flight in a Piper Archer. We departed from Vancouver Intl., flew to Point Grey (i.e., U.B.C.), then transited the harbour zone and flew past Simon Frasier University to "Pitt Meadows, and then headed back to YVR via Burnaby. My dad trained in fly Tiger Moths and Avro Ansons near the end of the war, so it was an extra special flight with extra special scenery.
+Jim Allison - glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for sharing your story.
Very cool video Mr Chops! Looks like that airplane would be a lot of fun to fly around.
Thanks Steveo - I enjoyed the heck out of your Puerto Rico VOLG! (getting to see it a day early as a Patreon supporter is a good perk :)
Hey steveo, fancy seeing you here, I follow your channel too. I was here because I'm a piper instrument man, lol.
I love this channel so much. The episodes are edited so well this could be a television series.
Have to agree. ATC folks are awesome here in Canada and good to us VFR guys. Even when I burble my way through a request they are patient and understanding. Your low and over at YVR was phenomenal - what a treat! John and I got one at Hamilton in his TB20 a couple of weeks back - not quite as cool, but man are those big airport runways ever long! So to any Nav Canada guys who see this - Thank you!
Did ATC caution the A380 regarding your wake turbulence...? ;-)
Kennedy Steve did that once with a 380 behind a C172 "Caution propwash". LOTS of mic clicks after that... :-)
As a guy flying in Canadian airspace, this video was very informative and enjoyable, thanks FlightChops
Happy to share!
One of best episodes, loved the happy faces of your family and the amazing ENDING.....wow....good work Steve.
As a former controller turned pilot, I love these videos. Very good points all the way through. I love having my instructors ask me controller questions; it's nice to break down that barrier.
Loved it. Having a life long passion for flight and now a 44 year old student pilot, I can't wait to share it with my kids. Thank you for sharing.
Very nice video Flightchops. You got to ride in a remarkable example of a Bearhawk. Nice that your family got to go. Thanks for the tour Ryan.
Thanks Steve. I haven't been home in many many years. I started flying at the Pitt Meadows airport. I had the pleasure of growing up there and that airport was my second home.
Wow! So awesome that you grew up with that field close by - it is a dream airport!
Love this video! Makes me feel as though I can be a lot more confortable speaking with the controller - not as scared to be completely professional the entire time.
Also your daughter pointing things out was absolutely adorable :)
Thanks Sam!
Controllers are human too and usually the bark is worse than the bite. Just relax, communicate clearly and be ok with needing to change your plan. Truth be told, while we got the low approach at YVR we also had to orbit for 10min to wait for a hole in the traffic. Steve's daughter almost got sick from the circling, so every request has its potential cost and downside. ;)
Aaah, that part ended up on the cutting room floor, great backstory Ryan. Nice bird you have there.
You picked a good time to come out here. I love the shot of Mt. Baker behind you at 4:50.
You have a beautiful family! Thank you so much for sharing the good times! Please don't underestimate how joyous it feels to be part of it even in a little way.
So glad to sponsor this channel. What an awesome video.
Thanks for helping us create the content Andrew! Did you receive your flight suit patch?
FlightChops oh yeah, months ago. Everyone asks me about the sticker on my laptop as well. Great conversation starter.
Oh I sure miss flying in Canada, especially taking friends on tours in the lower mainland. ATC was always a pleasure to earl with.
That's my backyard! I got my PPL at ZBB and my CPL out of YVR before the landing fee was implemented. I think you can land a 150 sideways on 26R. I guess that would make it 35S LOL.
Looks like you had a great time.
I have not been flying for quite a while. You have inspired me to get back in the air.
wow! knowing your atc stuff can really add to the freedom of flight.
Maybe you meant atc staff.! They definitely would give you freedom of flight.
This has got to be one of the best Flight Chops videos to date. The production quality was excellent. Content was very informative. The chance to see some of the beautiful Canadian scenery in a very unique aircraft and get a low and over of YVR 08R. I had a chance to fly in FBH w/ RVH and it was one of those eye-opening aviation experiences that make you say to yourself, "I can't believe I'm doing this right now!"
Top shelf boys! Keep up the great work!
What a delightful little girl. Nice flight!
What amazing memories Ryan is creating there for the family! Thanks again for all of your efforts in order to share these.

ATC Controller / Pilot Communication Tips - Vancouver City Tour - VLOG Flight
Thank you very much for all these videos that you put on youtube site.
Very nice camera and the very bright functional cockpit super the Bearrhawk.
Beautiful demonstration from the owner.
Thank you for this video Flgiht chops
OMG - I loved the end where the girls are watching cartoons on the iPad !!!
I love the soundtrack to this video! Great as always. If you're not careful, you're going to get picked up by a TV station, and all us UA-camrs will be out!
The Daughter is so glamorous with those shades, and its cool how much she likes flying, and the wife is wearing Chops old sunglasses which again is really cool to see.
For sure! My wife loves the Albatross Scheydens - For this ep I was wearing the C-130 frames. I got those ones in the Polarized lenses for hanging out at airshows, but I don't fly with polarized lenses.
Great video! " There aren't always technical words to describe what you are seeing" as an aviation English instructor/ rater this expresses the importance of having a good knowledge of general English for pilots and ATC ! Thanks for posting 😀✈️
Should have rocked the wings as you flew by that A380 as a cheeky salute. Great video as usual!
WOW! One of the best aviation videos on UA-cam ! Steve, thank you for your amazing video which brings back all my good memories in YVR! Ryan, hope someday I may catch your Bravo Hotel with my camera!
Wow what an incredible flight! The lighting was gorgeous and you obviously spent a good deal of time editing that video and it showed. Thanks for putting this together and sharing with everybody what must have been a very memorable flight for you and your family.
Thanks! And yes, it was a great memory
Love the BC Aviation gear that Ryan is wearing. Will have to check our their website and buy a shirt. Need some more avi t-shirts.
Awesome video, I fly out of YNJ and that is one of my favorite tours over North Van, though I have never done a low and slow at YVR.
I wasn't aware of the BC General Aviation Association, I will have to look them up.
As always, great video FlightChops, I always look forward to your new adventures.
Nice, I felt like I was up there with you guys! Beautiful evening flight in a beautiful aircraft!
yay! flightchops video on my bday!!
well happy birthday then
+Top Kek - happy birthday!
I must visit Vancouver! Thanks Flight Chops!
how sweet is that! the girls watching a movie in the plane :) nice video again Steve. Flew there to years ago with a friend... beautiful landscapes :)
Is somebody chewing gum? ha ha! I can't tell you how much I look forward to your video's. Steve,you are living a fine life! Keep up the excellent work, looking forward to the day you fly the Spitfire!
Oh man, I laughed so hard when the A380 had to line up and wait for you guys on 08R! Welcome to my hometown!
Wow, Vancouver looks incredible. Must get out there to fly sometime. Thanks for another good one, Steve.
My daughter is 5 and i love taking her with me also. We are from across the lake from you. We live south of Rochester NY. Sometimes I have to tell her I'm not going flying when i want to go for a rip by myself but she always asks then why are you taking your flight bag....
Great video! Such a beautiful bird as well. I teach my students not to be afraid of ATC. They are there to help you and work as a team. Ryan said it perfectly, professional but in a conversational manner.
Great video as always, and really cool to see you got to take that pass over the runway at Vancouver International. What a treat!
Awesome! Great to see the family involved and enjoying it!
Another great video. I love the aerial views and your daughter's fascination 'that boat's going to china?!' Keep up the great work.
And I don't mind the monetization. I hope you make millions (and I'm also a Patreon supporter).
Right on thanks! And regarding the monetization; I turned it on in Jan 2017 for the first time after ~4 years, simple because I was told the algorithm favored monetized videos. I didn't expect my niche numbers to generate much ad revenue, and never liked the idea of making views sit through ads - anyway - after a couple months I can confirm the money is crap - it's been about $1 / 1000 views... so yeah, unless getting millions of views, Ad rev is not worth it. Still waiting to see if there is a significant change in the algorithm sharing - Ive been told it can take 3 months for the meta data to trickle down and start rewarding the monetized videos with being suggested more often...
Containers full of Maple syrup and Beavertails going to China, Canadian humour. xD. Evelyn is just the cutest! Im so glad you all got to enjoy this magical experience.
What an awesome flight! Always great to see a message saying you've uploaded another video!!
Awesome thanks!
FlightChops no problemo!
Ow that’s cool. Great family outing in a really nifty plane. Thanks for sharing
AWESOME. FlightChops, you make outstanding videos. Keep on the good work.
Awesome Video! Much Love for FlightChops!
Your videos are getting better and better! Love the mix of tips, learning moments, and great flying shots. Keep up the good work! Greetings from Chris who is working on PPL flying at the beautiful Norwegian coast.
Beautiful, Mr Chops!
Very cool.. Did you see the lumberjack show on Grouse Mtn? Family was in "Vancougar" a couple years ago and took a ride in a Beaver. That was a great video with your family. Special flight for sure.
Another great video Sir...that's almost as nice as Sydney Harbour...awesome that you can share your love of flying with your family too!
Thats sooo cool, the little girl will enjoy this video for a loooooog time and show her friends lol! And Mr. Pilot...very nice experimental...I would feel one hundred percent secure flying with you...way to go..very cool guy!
Another great video. Even all the way down here in NZ I have learned so much from watching all these. Keep it up
Great video! I know for some that the communications can be difficult. When I first started flying, the communications were a little confusing; for obvious reasons like, it sounds so complicated. But when you boil it down, all it is; who you are, where you're at, and what you want or what you are doing. Keep it short, keep it sweet...no small talk. I think I was more concerned about sounding ridiculous, like the new guy that I was, lol. Once I got over that, my communications got MUCH MUCH better. I wonder if ATC is giggling at some of my landings...haha!
wow, wow, wow, that was so incredible, never thought you would get clearance for something like a fly by...thanks so much for posting, so cool.
I'm working on an FAA UAS license with hopes of following through with a private pilot license in the future. Hearing from an ATC/pilot about his perspective on workload is something I would not have thought to ask. Thank you for sharing such insight.
I love your videos so much!!!! They are best on UA-cam. I always look forward to the new ones because they are always different, and I get to see so many perspectives. Keep up the AMAZING work FlightChops!!!!!!!
Awesome - I really appreciate this feedback! We're working hard to make the flying content we wanted to see - glad you're enjoying it too!
Great video, loved seeing your family involved (your daughter is as cute as can be!)
Fantastic video! Makes me want to get back to BC.
Amazing experience flying with you. Great info lead up re: 'scratch' built precision. Interesting perspective from ATC/Pilot and copilot too. Brilliant view. Amazing family experience. Evelyns's future has wings!! What a sweet craft, that Bearhawk. Thanks for the ride!
Such an epic channel. These videos are amazing! Keep them coming!
Such a nice video showing the two girls enjoying the flying and not being scared and fussy. Lucky you that the pilot didn't take you in the air during a rough day, maybe he picked the afternoon when the air is smooth. I know the tower on the top of the Pan Pacific hotel, I have done some work up there. Fly safe, experiment, improve, but I would inspect the ELT and carry a satellite tracker on every flight, a suggestion from an Air Search and Rescue team member
I got my license in this airspace; this video brings back so many memories! Pretty awesome what you got to do at YVR, that is still on my bucket list! Thank you for these videos FlightChops ;)
Your videos are interesting and really instructive. I am getting current again after 25 years since flying. Keep it up!
I love your channel FlightChops! SO interesting and fun to watch man. keep up the GREAT work!
Loved it, chops. Thank you.
I loved this installment Steve great to see your family had a great time!
What an absolutely stunning end!
What an experience! I'm so jealous
Outstanding! Loved the low pass over CYVR. :-D
Wait! We need more videos.
Good job Steve. Keep it up
- Steve
Awesome video flight chops! Really inspiring to watch! Have a good day!
Chops is so epic, even the guy you were interviewing started to sprout hair chest at 1:01
Haha - that's the "wind sock" for the LAV mic :)
I don't know. I'll take you for your word, but I'm still holding on to my beliefs.. EPIC = Manliness
Very cool video as always! I love all the camera angles!
Steve, if you want top of the line avionics, you HAVE to be experimental. This is a big part of why us builders build.
Bottleworksnet curious about your statement. You mean its cheaper than retrofitting an old plane, or something else?
Experimental / Homebuilt Aircraft can utilize avionics and components that are not "certified" which are a lot less expensive also the owner/pilot can to all the installation themselves. Factory built aircraft require certified parts and a licensed mechanic to complete the installation.
Ryan Van Haren very cool, thanks!
I hope that a380 waited for the wake to clear before they took off....
Great episode! I absolutely loved it and it was very inspirational! Such a pretty airplane too!
Should have come up to Squamish for some mountain flying! Very cool to see these videos in and around my own stomping grounds. This is why we fly!
just discovered your channel...you have a beautiful family!
+puppy fresh (puppyfresh) - thanks! And welcome to the channel - please enjoy the more than 100 back catalog episodes!
Beautiful family, congratulations!
Love this video! The Lower Mainland is my backyard.
Hey Steve +FlightChops i just suscribed to your Vlog and whatched this video, as an aviation lover and pilot in training i can not tell how jealous I am of this amazing opportunity you had to fly arrund downtown Vancouver area with such a cool controler/pilot Ryan Van Haren and your family, thanks for sharing, your earned yourself a new fan from Mexico today !!
@12:51 gotta love Canadians! :D very nice video, greetings from Germany :)
I never knew there was a Tower up there! I'll have to put it on my bucket list to schedule a tour and watch ATC from the Canadian side. I've been controlling since 1994 and I have family that I visit in Surrey and Vancouver quite often.
Hey brother! Proud of what you're doing! - Gav
Thanks man! Have we talked since Norm died? I am constantly inspired by his positive energy - he was my first flying mentor thanks to your BBS, and I'll always dedicate what I am doing to his memory.
We talked just afterward! Every time I hear his name I can see him like he's right next to me. I miss everyone from those days :D You seriously need to take me up. Get a move on!! ;-)
Great video as usual! You keep me motivated to keep working towards my PPL.
"we're gonna be flying right into the sun the start"
".........what?"
Also, that ATC was really cool
really great video! love the views and music! keep up the good work, taking my checkride soon so i am binge watching videos right now.
@FlightChops I FINALLY got to understand how the mics work better because of your little girl. I have always wondered about what duplex the headsets worked in and now I know. Thank her for me. :) I have never flown a plane but it has always been a dream. Love your channel.
WOW!
The whole video was amazing and i learned alot! and the ending was freaking COOL!
Unbelievable awesome video, i can't stop smiling.
I am so glad I watched this video, thank you so much for bringing us along. A really cool perspective and awesome scenery. You are Blessed with a beautiful Family. How special to share this flight with them. Thanks again for sharing!
Chops!!!! very enjoyable video. Thanks.
Awesome vid! Really enjoyed it. Last night I flew from Brampton to Toronto, ATC were patient with as I'm terrible on the radio a lot of pausing:(. The ease in which Ryan spoke was enviable but I will learn from him and definitely be more determined to not limit my flying adventures cause I don't want to speak to atc. Thanks Mr Chop's and great plane Ryan.
I was really hoping that the controller would say something like "use caution wake turbulence" with that line up and wait call to the a380.
Great evening's flying !! It's a great message to get out too. I think many pilot's limit their adventures because of their apprehension in dealing with ATC. Phraseology is important but if you're clear and succinct most controllers can often help with plain English request......... clever use of the tablet in the end.....I see what you're doin....brainwashing them into the cockpit using cartoons LOL
Your videos have sparked my childhood dream, thank you! I have always wanted to fly but never taken the steps. After watching many of your videos I have decided I have to give the private pilot license a go. Keep up the awesome content!
Gotten started yet and found out first hand how awesome flying is? If not, this is a reminder ;)
I have, thank you for the extra push. I have only logged 2 hours but I'm trying to fly weekly just getting scheduling conflicts with my instructor.
Your daughter is totally precious, next generation female pilot!
