    We're planning on a 1,150 Milles trip to Sun and Fun on 2020, from San Juan Puerto Rico (US) to Lakeland Florida...We have like 7 planes interested on the trip... So from Puerto Rico to the Dominican republic, the Bahamas, then Florida!! let see how that goes..

    Dude, your editing is so far ahead and so much better than any other CZcams channel out there. You are a really good story teller and I find myself feeling as if I’m right there. I’m actually a commercial pilot myself working on CFI. Great videos man!

      Not just the editing - think of what a pain in the arse it would be to stage a camera outside your hangar at 4AM, and then have to re-drive your car around to capture footage of "arriving at the hangar" :)

    This reminds me of when I would drive East before dawn, on my way to airshows the other side of the UK. I'd get a sunrise and see the contrails of airliners on their way to Heathrow and mainland Europe. It certainly is a special time of the day.

    I was a precision landing pilot on my flight team in college and we would start our practices at 6am every day, frequently watching sunrises from the pattern. The pilots were all big fans of HBO’s “From the Earth to the Moon” and at sunrise, one would key the mike and quote Alan Bean from the miniseries:
    “My, that sun is bright!”
    Inevitably, another pilot would chime in and respond:
    “Feels good!”

    Another outstanding video Josh. I agree solo long X-country is the best. Flew Albuquerque to Oshkosh this year. Left at 4am watched the sun rise and kept on flying all the way to OSH in one day and 4 stops over 1000 miles. I plan my trips exactly the same way. Point A-Point B then use the ruler at 350 miles and start looking for airports. Every trip I have to take for work I always have the option for commercial but take an extra day on both ends and try to fly N734DV C172/180 every chance I get. Keep up the great work. Headed out to Las Vegas NV via Page AZ in Jan. with a stop at Marble Canyon just because you showed us what a kool little place it was and the breakfast sounds outstanding. Fly safe young man and keep the videos coming. Happy Holiday.

We were flying over mountains in Jan. at night , not me . The next morning we made our way to messa Ari . Very nice trip . next day went to the grand canyon . Returned the next day to El Paso again . The weather was good . about 60 miles out we went IFR on top and it was getting dark , no problem but I got a bunch of IFR actual , kinda fun really . So long trips in a 172 is ok .
