Really enjoyed the video. Very interesting listening to all the various settings and checks for the engines and props, especially the fiction locks. If I recall the frictions locks were the root cause of the King Air accident almost four years ago next week. My company owned that accident King Air ( N534FF ) and sold it about four months prior to the accident. It is the lack of paying attention to the small things that can have dramatic effects.
Assuming that it was the T-38 they were talking about at 1:55 (since it was at Sheppard AFB), it does in fact have working AC. However, it does not work well while the aircraft is taxiing on the ground, which is why you will see them taxi with the canopies open sometimes.
Thank you for your Angel Flight participation. Such a great organization. I just got my 300 type and flying a 350 out of central Louisiana Awesome aircraft. Great video!
Thanks for finally allowing me to take a ride in Russell’s King Air! 😂. Great video! Lots of great shots. I thought my 172 was going to make it in the video. Lol
Thai people would like that cal sign 555. In Thai language number 5 is pronounced like “ha”. When they do a laugh text message like lol they will type 555 like hahaha 😂
good day sir, what cameras and mounts did you use for the exterior shots? I’m kind of thinking of recording something like this as well, I’m flying King Air 350s here in our place, much thanks sir!
Keep in mind that controller was at an air force base so they are not likely accustomed to handling civilian aircraft. It's possible the controller is 18-19 years old and just completed their training. He may have also been handling other aircraft or tasks on another frequency or phone. Military aircraft operate on different frequencies 225-380 MHz than civilian aircraft 118-138MHz. Although the military operates variants of the King Air, they don't call them that. Air force bases are large complexes where the controller doesn't always have line of sight view of all aircraft movements.
I think that controller is just starting his career.😂

Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed the in-flight conversation as well.
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice flight Cap, I love Kings 200. Smooth and soft landing, thanks for the video. From Caracas, Venezuela
Thanks for watching!

They're also T-38Cs, so they have the better system.

Done some Angel Flights out of South Carolina myself…great organization!
King Air is my favorite plane❤
0:12 engine start up sounds like igniting/starting up the stove
Good afteroon

Haha, hey brother! Hope your doing well!!
@@ErikJohnston absolutely! Hope you’re doing well also! Are you going to the rose city air fest Friday?
My boyfriend said ''Beechcraft King Air is good airplane''. He was pilot in the U.S. Navy and commerical airplane.
Nice job Erik!
With the extend range tank this can go over 2000 NM, but I rarely see operators use this for those missions… wonder why?

Show 👏👏👏

Nice, how we're the cameras mounted on the outside? I’d like to try that on top of the tail of a B-350.

Sheppard in the middle of summer. I do not have fond memories 😅

That ground controller just didn’t get it.
