- Let's go to the Keys! This is what it is like to take a trip to the Keys to the Marathon Airport KMTH in the Diamond DA40 from Pompano Airpark KPMP. South along the shore with a beautiful view of Ft. Lauderdale & Miami. Added landmarks along the way and hope I have them all correct. Some parts of the trip are missing, but a fun time and a good learning experience editing the video and picking out points of interest along the way to help my pilotage too.

Lol I just bought that plane. I’m watching the video and I hear N 350 RJ. How crazy is that
Really! Romeo Juliet is a great plane. Very well taken care of. You are lucky. I will miss flying in it! That’s crazy you found these videos. I wish I could have bought it. 😊
Laurie Lindsey you can fly it anytime. Actually you can help me fly it back to Ct. lol
Just seeing this comment. Guess I am too late :)
Laurie are you still flying? I haven’t had Romeo Julliet up in a couple months. The weather hasn’t really cooperated in the Northeast plus the virus. I’m thinking of bringing it back to Florida next winter Hope all is well Stay safe. Jim.
Laurie Lindsey hi Laurie just a few months lol. I have RJ in Ct but haven’t been up in. A couple of months the weather up here has not been very cooperative and now the the virus I think I’ll bring her back to Florida next winter I’ll move down there for the winter Somewhere between Del Ray and Fort Lauderdale. I have a home on an island at the east end of Long Island that has an airstrip SI my plan is to bring it out there. Are you still Flying? I enjoyed your videos they actually inspired me to get back in the left seat. Hope your well. Stay safe during this craziness. Be well. Jim.
Ohh, I miss South Florida :(
Thanks for the relaxing flight. Remids me of why I'm spending all this time and money for flight lessons :)
The landmark descriptions are great! Thanks!
Such a beautiful plane - very nice views! I think I am going to have to virtually fly this route.
Love the forward vision and the music track! Plus interspersing with radio com.
That Plane has great forward vision.
Brian Day love those diamonds
I use to fly in every yr to visit my dad. Could see the house. Loved to circle and see the water and feel I was coming home. Because next day out to thunderbolt.
I cannot tell you how many times I did the KHWO to KMTH/KEYW or Opa Locka to MYBS "short hops" under pristine VFR conditions. I am oh so ready to come back to Florida. Great video.
Thank you for the beautiful tour!
New follower. Enjoyed the video. I amnot a pilot,but enjoying riding along with you guys on trips. Thanks for the views an captions of the landmarks. Appreciate the vids.Happy Flying.👍✈
Man, so much history at this airport!! CIA and blow
Awesome!
You passed right over my house on departure haha
Very cool. Most in that area complain about that!
Wow! Quem sabe uma dia realizo este mesmo trajeto (plano) Até, ainda, Key West (...as a Passanger, of course). Oh Beautiful! Nice, Cool...
Ayyy I literally see my house when you go to land at marathon lol
I have some great pics from skydiving into Marathon. My in-laws live on Bruce Ct in back of the airport. 👍
I've flown from Naples direct to Marathon a good few times, climbing high enough over the water to be able to (almost) glide there if the engine went quiet; then on to Key West and a short walk to the beach where I lay for many hours when I should have been hours-building. Is the tethered balloon still flying over the air base? Happy Days :)
Good idea to fly high over the water there. Also for flight following because you will lose Miami Center if too low. Yes the balloon is still there! Thanks for watching.
wow!! How many miles of beach is that?? Great job with the flying, thank you for recording it.. and how awesome is that Diamond?! Love it, keep it up!!
Pompano to Marathon is 104 miles. Florida is nothing but beach on both coasts, so no shortage of beach flying here. The Diamond is an awesome plane.
Great edit! Did you have to request anything special to fly down the beach and over Miami?
I get a flight following. It’s a very busy airspace. You will fly low level and they like you on the east side if you go over Hallover inlet. It’s a little easier if the jets are landing from the west since they are in a climb to the east. Stay out of the class Bravo. You can lose Miami ATC if you are too low if you are heading to the Keys.
Man, you missed the best part.. do you have any video from Elliot key to marathon?? Just fyi, the place you labeled Ocean Reef is not ocean reef..
lindo vuelo
What type a/c? Looks like a Diamond... I instructed in a steam gauge DA-20 at USAFA
DA40
