It is very easy to land any Mooney... - they are perfectly easy to contol, just fly by the numbers! :-)

Is that a factory original paint scheme for a 1964 Mooney M20C?

How to land a Mooney: have $100k

I'm a pilot living in Longmont, but waaaay out of currency and proficiency. It's great to see your trips up into the mountains from LMO. I'm curious about your gear indication lights. The right main was showing red on your approach into Aspen. Is that an abnormality? Also, what a relief that the forced landing was successful for the other pilot!

Defiantly keep the videos coming love your stuff!

That service for a small plane starts at $6000

Came across this channel. One of the best aviation channels I’ve seen. Especially for Colorado mountain flying. Looks like the content has stopped, which is a shame because these videos are really well done, especially this one. Wow.

I lived at the east end of the Marble strip forty years ago. The owner of the strip at that time flew a Mooney in and camped at the group of trees next to the river. Great place....except for tourist in summer and snow in winter. LOL

Just subbed.. hope you start to post again.

Ah, my favorite airplane - an early Mooney with manual gear. Back in the day I flew one coast to coast several times, all over East of the Mississippi and even to the Caribbean a few times.

You should come back when you get a chance. You're videos are inspiring. I have a mooney M20F I hope to do some of the same stuff.

Great video! Thank you for making and posting it!

Awesome video

Is it really different aircraft detailing and car detailing? I honestly feel it’s weird and stupid question but I’m really curious about that… And I’m pretty sure it actually is, so if it is, what are the differences? Thank you 🙏

You need to do a video on flying a Gyro copter in the mountains

I fly 4 all the time. But I want to do a back seat setup so I can hold 3 people and 3 sets of golf clubs! So have the ability to lay one or both back seats down

Hi. How about to low the pressure in tires to match balance for take off and smooth landing where low pressure tires get first touch?

Great video and approach into KCOS. Thanks for sharing.

Question. What does wilderness have to do with where you can or can't fly? Seems like I see planes flying above wilderness all the time.

What irks a Canadian pilot transiting down there are radio calls that don't use the airport name that is on the charts. In this case I'd be calling up Vance Brand; and I'm hearing pilots talking about Longmont and since I don't see Longmont airport on the VFR charts I'm thinking it is a common frequency also used in a completely different location, hence I don't have to worry about them. Recently flew into Hudson Valley Reg'al, KPOU, Poughkeepsie, NY... listening on the radio for any of those names. But the controller comes up identifying himself as Dutchess County. JEEZ. What gives down there, guys??

Mooney is not make for this.

Better planes for that. I’d buy a small jet if you want to land on grass so you can get up high fast above the terrain

This is what GA needs! Your common sense facts based approach is refreshing. No hyperbole no over focusing on one thing as if it’s the end all be all of any issue. You’re doing GA a huge service with your common sense approach and calm demeanor. All your videos are great! But as a flat lander I found this one to be so informative and educational on the subject of high density altitude flying. You demystified it. Thank you, God bless you and stay safe.

1:15 🤔😶😯🙂 👍😎👍 1:42 😂 Indescribably perfect, pilot to mountain biking site day. I had fun. Plus until now, I knew Telluride only as a song from a Spyro Gyra album (Freetime). Maybe I vaguely recall perhaps, legendary snow skiing? Gorgeous getaway, thanks for sharing.

Have a camera in front of you and on the winds looking in.

I have to ask, are you not comfortable in the seat? You seem to be constantly adjusting your seat position.

Can you spare us this awfull music ?

Can you spare us this ridiculous and awfull music ?

Good! Thx for sharing

Butter!

I own a Mooney M20B , thank you for such a good information. I appreciate you.

How much did that job cost? I'm thinking about starting an aircraft detailing business...

I grew up flying with my father. He owned two different Mooney an E model being the last. Out of Wichita he flew a 5 state area for business. Good times. 😊

Thanks for the video. Can you provide the waypoints used in your flight plan. I can’t make this work at 12,500 MSL. What am I missing.

If I ever buy my own plane a Mooney is it. Values are certainly going to go up in the future because the company is out of business and they are very desirable AC for GA pilots.

literally clean

Just started my flight training at KAPA in Centennial, CO (Aspen Flight Club). I can’t wait to be able to fly in the mountains. Thank you for sharing!

I'm a low-lander so watching your left turn over Marble got my heart pumping just a bit! Not used to seeing mountains... let alone THAT close. Nice flying!

The three most important things for smooth landings are airspeed, airspeed, airspeed - great explanation.

YOU FLY A MOONEY THAT SLOW AND HIT A WIND SHEER YOU ARE NOSE DOWN AND IN THE GROUND !!!!

Cool video. There are plenty of ways Philip could have made his process more efficient, but none the less the outcome was probably great. Good stuff!

Great Video!

We need more VIDEOS. I hope everything is well? I've Subscribed.

So did you manage to pack the bike in the mooney?

What a beautiful backyard view

Well done. I have owned three Mooney's over the years and used them a lot up and down the West Coast. Now have the K model with intercooler. Such a great IFR platform but never focused in on a landing technique. Found myself always fast attempting to avoid those "shear stalls". Your video spells it out for anyone flying one of the greatest 4 place retractable's in the air. Thanks for taking the time to make this video...

In all honesty it is the compound or polish that mostly determines how gritty the polishing is , so using the same compound with different polisher or pad really makes no difference. That’s why there’s cutting compound, polish , and fishing polish just like sand paper, because that’s what polishing is basically, sanding of micro layers of either, pollutants , ceramic coating , clear coatings or paint. Hes doing a 3 step polish with only 2 grits of polish.

Love these vids! Hope all is well and they keep coming!

This is total rubbish. Clearly this guy is low time in Mooney’s Mooney’s aren’t Cessnas

They have a product called AutoLean which is certified and Does the leaning for you 1 less thing to worry with!! ❤😊
