Two NERVOUS “Millennial” Friends Doing the NYC Skyline Tour in a Cirrus SR22. KFRG - KHVN

- Eliza and Henna asked me to take them flying in my Cirrus SR22 G6. Since both of them are nervous fliers, I thought the best way to calm their nerves is to fly the New York City Skyline tour followed by lunch at the world famous Frank Pepe's for its legendary white clam pizza. I've included almost all of the ATC audios from take off most of the Hudson River VFR Corridor (SFRA).
So please join us on our flight from KFRG to KHVN for a breathtaking NY Skyline Tour (aka Hudson River SFRA Corridor).

Everyone commenting on the amount of selfies as we watch an a video that is essentially a selfie lol
Loving your videos!
true…lol.
Fun and hilarious video. Thanks for taking us along! All the selfies reminded me of my daughter and her friends. The counts were hilarious! Safe flying.
Thank you Giorgio! We are a much different generation than "them"...lol.
This is probably the world record for the most selfies taken in a short time 😁. Nice flight and great video.
Def world record 🤣. Thanks pal!
Looked like a beautiful day to fly. That area is sooo busy. The photo shoot with the selfie count was hilarious. Thanks for sharing your adventures.
Thanks pal!
Skyline tour always rocks. Good ride and good pizza!
Hilarious that you captioned each selfie! My pal just got a Cirrus, and I hope to fly in it soon. Thanks for the videos.
Thanks Patrick! You are gonna love the Cirrus. Yes Pepe’s Pizza is amazing.
LOL the jokes write themselves loved the banter with you and your home tower.
They are part time comedians. Lol.
Great video!!! Reminded me about a flight that I took with two female friends. One of them was living in Australia at the time and then when she got in the plane, instead of sitting in the copilot seat, she climbed over the center consul and sat in the pilot seat. She thought it was like cars in Australia where you drive on the right side 😂😂😂
Lol…here’s to the adorable ladies.
Thanks for sharing the experience with us!
Thank you for your support!
I love the skyline tour, especially at night! Great video!
Thanks so much!
And a stop at Frank Pepe Pizza ... I'm envious!
The selfie count😂😂😂 that’s ridiculous!!! Enjoy the flight! I would have smacked the phone of their hands.
🤣 they are millennials.
A Go Pro 360 degree camera in the front, a Go Pro over the wing and a Go Pro on the ceiling looking ahead.
The selfie counter has me cracking up… and I’m only at 34!
🤣
An eject button would solve the problem
Great video and a beautiful plane. I fly there regularly, though usually come from Alpine tower side, always a fun flight! Thanks for sharing the video.
Thanks pal!
So busy with selfies hysterical 😂
Great flight plan!!! 👏🏼👏🏼 in a beautiful day
Thanks Juan
Nice flying! ✈️
Your passengers made it more challenging but you handled it all smoothly. 👏🏼
Aside from vacation arrivals back into LGA over the Hudson, ironically I’ve not yet done the down low Skyline Tour. On my bucket list for one of these days…
Thanks David!
Loving the selfie count….hilarious!
🤣🤙✌️
You can hear Farmingdale State 50 on the frequency while climbing out of FRG. My son flew that plane many times. He now flies mostly FRG62 or FRG63. Farmingdale State College uses those two planes for Commercial Rating training.
Awesome!
Awesome!
Frickin Awesome!!!!!! Yes
Thanks pal!
Great flight as usual. The super ridiculous selfie is beyond words. Self indulged no doubt. Look at me syndrome.
What can I says…millennials. 🤣
As a millennial pilot, I can safely say…we don’t all do that 🤣
You’ve restored my hope in your generation. ✌️🤙🤣
loll so many selfies. 🤣
🤣
Subscribed to your channel after watching you and your family in the Tesla road trip videos. Love the content, keep it up! I'm also in NYC but with a LR MY :P
Thanks so much Ahmed!
Well done! I enjoyed the ride.
Thanks pal!
Good vid…. “…its going to be bumpy, just like the LIE..”. lol, i can relate to that..
🤣 though LIE is pretty much re-paved and is smooth as butter.
Gotta love the NYC shorline scenic flights.. and to top it off at Pepes! (Sallys Apizza is also top notch) :)
Thanks and will try Sally’s next time. ✌️
Lovely flight buddy, busy section of airspace both in the air and on the comms!
Thanks pal! The air space around here is indeed nuts.
I’m from Ireland but done some hour building in Florida towards my CPL a few years back, was pretty mental on the shoreline down that way too at the weekends. Nice vids you put together, take care 👍
haha the lady in the back talking thru her smile cause selfies are more important 😂
🤣
Another great video Sr. I usually fly Hudson corridor on opposite direction, entering from north end. Was nice to have a look from different perspective as well. Feel free to stop at 4B8 at some point. I’ll be happy to meet you in person John. Cheers.
Thanks Armen! Please hit me up on IG and if you come to KFRG let’s break bread. ✌️
great video and friends 😊
Great video ❤
Thx pal!
The selfies were a new level of pretentious. Seriously, what happened to enjoying the moment and creating the memory? Great video, I’ve flown that tour a few times now love it!
it's a different generation where social medial trumps reality...lol.
@@SlowAsianDriver pretty much
@@SlowAsianDriver Recent football game I was at, four girls sat in front of me and all took selfies… THE ENTIRE GAME. They never once looked on the field. The only time where they weren’t taking selfies was when a cameraman went by, they then tried frantically to get on tv like their lives depended on it.
🤦🏻♂️ that’s plain sad.
Holy crap the selfies are out of control!!
🤣🤣🤣 exactly.
Nice video in my own "backyard", Hope to see you on the ramp at Atlantic soon!
Thanks pal and see you around.
tell her to take more selfies if she's scared....LOL
Great flight great selfie count monitor
Thanks pal! 🤣
Selfies are out of control lol... but more surprisingly to me, it's all the things you can do in such a busy airspace... never imagined that you could fly that low in the area....
Lol tell me about it. The airspace is pretty busy: before we got there we had to duck under JFK’s Bravo at 400’ over water. The actual self reporting Hudson River SFRA is surface to 1,299 ft. Given all the helicopters and other traffic I always prefer a handoff and in contact with ATC. At 1,500’ it’s still lower than the Freedom tower and we have a spectacular view. ✌️
Gotta love New Haven Pizza 🍕🤤😋 Next time try Modern Apizza’s
👍
Another great vid. Did you have some flap extended northbound up the Hudson? Also, I fly the Skyline Route much closer to the shoreline (per the TAC chart) vs. over the middle of the river. If an opposite direction guy was doing the same thing as you…plus a lot of the helicopters perform 180s near the GWB, which could get create a collision hazard as they cross in front of you.
Thanks for the advice. ✌️. Yes I did extend 50% flaps.
My man !!! , great flight , nice job , Selfie count was up there with my camera count !!!!!!!! , wheres that pizza place in relation to HVN , close by ??, I should check it out .. great video ..
It’s Frank Pepe’s on Yale’s campus. Probably 15 min from Robinson Aviation. Selfie count was ridiculous 🤣
@@SlowAsianDriver roger , looked like really good pizza , and the selfies , hey even I,m guilty of those in the cruise !!!!
Gently bring it down , and don……………………DON’T SLAAAAAM MYY DOOOOR 😟😳
haha...yeah gotta keep telling my passengers...especially the selfie living ones...lol.
@@SlowAsianDriver
You bet.
Just found your channel which I will definitely enjoy.
Cheers from France and fly safe.
Thanks so much!
Lovely ladies
adorable ladies...but a pain in the butt...lol.
Some kinda Nice!
Thanks for sharing. Do you know what else is amazing? How many times you had to say HVN for ATC.😂
🤣 it happens.
Great video! Love the Hudson VFR corridor. Did you fly the skyline with flaps at 50%?
Thanks Raja! Yes I did fly with 50% flaps.
Awesome video. I noticed that you had the first notch of flaps in. Is that recommended for a relatively slow flight?
Christian, 50% flaps (1 notch) makes slow flights more comfortable and less nose up attitude.
Great vids! Note you don’t have TCAS do you? It would be ADSB or cirrus traffic alert. You won’t get a resolution if in conflict….or am I wrong?
Thanks pal! We do have both ADS-B and TCAS. Doesn’t provide conflict resolution but does provide traffic alert.
Amazing video and an amazing flight! Great job! I just wonder how you pull your plane out of the hangar. Manually?
Thank you Murad. We usually have the FBO stage the plane for us and push it back into the hangar after we land. We also have a Best Tug if we want to do it ourselves.
@@SlowAsianDriver I fell in love with your videos and subscribed, please keep doing it! Could you please also add to your stories how you usually prepare for the flight, how you make your flight plans which soft do you use?
Since I’m not a CFI, I have to be very careful as to what I put on the video. For flight planning I use Fore Flight.
I think a “I’m not a cfi” before you show us your prep, would work..right? I’m living my dream through your vids, so a few vids on prep would be awesome. I am a new sub!….great job btw.👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks for the feedback. On the cirrus learning portal they have a new cross country prep course that will do a much better job than me. Thanks again for your support.
Your a great pilot ! Lots of distractions !
Lol. Thx.
Hello SlowAsianDriver, just stumbled upon your videos after getting back in the MS Flight Sim 2020 and getting interested in GA aviation again. Tried to make my PPL about 15 years ago in Germany, never worked out, because of personal problems, moved to Spain, now had a trial flight with one of the flying school here in the area and everything felt very familiar. I guess it's like riding a bike :) Anyways, I really enjoy your videos and your professionalism. May I ask what is a "Skyline Tour", I mean I can imagine, but is that a set route you can take in the NY area or is it ppl can book officially? Not sure. If ever come to NY (changes are slim :)), I would definitely want to fly with you, too. If you ever come to Spain, please let me know. Would be great to meet up.
Hey pal! Thanks for the support. :) "Skyline Tour" is a generic term for VFR flying to see the NY City Skyline. There are specific rules & reporting points published in the Sectional Chart. It's very popular amongst the pilots and a great way to show visiting friends of NYC from a different angle.
What part of Spain do you live? We were just in Madrid & Marbella a few month ago...would've been nice to meet up. Feel free to reachout on IG (same name). Cheers!
@@SlowAsianDriver Haha, what a shame. I live near Málaga, so we were very close. Thanks for the explanation. I subbed you on Instagram as well 😂
@@SlowAsianDriver Btw, John, just in case you are slightly interested. I made a video for my German channel of the trial flight I had a few weeks ago 😂 You can find it here: czcams.com/video/0qx85WcZQSY/video.html
There's gotta be a therapist that specializes in selfie addiction
please send info ASAP. 😂
Great footage Beautiful passengers ,,Good Radio/Comms
Thx pal!
id have to imagine the counter is way off lol
I lost count…
How fast do you normally fly when site seeing? 50%/100?
I usually fly around 90-95 at 50%.
I was just reading about residents complaining about Avelo airlines flying those 737's must be loud out of that small airport.
Great video and amazing skills. Can i ask how many hours you have? Your confidence and ability is something i aspire to have. Private pilot studying commercial with roughly 130 hours total.
Thanks pal! I’m about 420 hrs.
You fly like you have even more. Very switched on.
Thanks pal! Good luck with your commercial. ✌️🤙
10:17 - Isn't it referred to as, "The Lady".
Note: I can't believe I didn't do this tour after getting PPL in 1995. Thanks for video.
Correct. I love doing this for all the friends visiting NY.
Those girls act like a bunch of teenagers taking selfie pics
💯🤣
21 selfies before takeoff. That has to be a record. 🎉😂. I used to pass that airport on my way to work 😊
Millennials…’nuf said. 🤣
Love all the selfie counts!
🤣 it was out of control. Lol.
All those selfies and only one gets posted lol.
Wrong…two got posted. 🤣
How do I book one of these lol
Bruh did you tap dat
Negative. She’s a good friend. 🤣
hope you can fly me once i am in nyc
JAJAJAJAJAJAJA. I can imagine my daughter doing the same thing
🤣🤣🤣
After the first 3-5 dings, I was like pls make it stop
I’m sorry, but those two cute ladies are ridiculous. It’s not necessary to take more than a couple of selfies. You took them on a fabulous sightseeing trip, and they barely looked out the windows😡. In 1973, my friend and I took 2 playboy bunnies on a flight (before cell phones). Bit bunnies painted their nails, and never looked out the windows. Passengers like that are not welcome in my bonanza!
Tell me about it. Lol
The selfie count is annoying.
You’re handsome!
Why COUNT the ‘selfies..? They’re SO self-absorbed it’s just a run-on LONG movie. NOT A SINGLE question about THE plane ha ha ha..
Love the selfie count thingy…
🤣 Millennials.
Had to watch this on mute. Those selfie dings were hell for my tinutus. Otherwise great videos as always.
Thank you and sorry. Lol.
Wth is going on with the selfies
Out of control.
@@SlowAsianDriver For sure
I wanted to reach through the screen and slap that phone out of her hand. Enough with the selfies.
🤣 OMG if I didn’t have to fly I would’ve done it myself. Different generation.
great video....lady in the back is annoying though
I find most of the millennials quite annoying...lol.
