Just watched that 1st approach and landing about ...10 times! Remarkable airmanship, thanks for sharing.
Absolutely Incredible channel! makes me fall in love with aviation over and over again.
Your resourcefulness is world class. I'm a skylane pilot as well, and enjoy venturing into high terrain in the sierras. Your tips and tricks are not only helpful in practice, but show your thoughtful and careful mentality in flight planning. I think this attitude is needed to be taught more in GA. Clear skies!
Don't be afraid to change your plans... says the pilot who will be flying safely for many years to come. Excellent video.👍
Great information for everyone and especially for a low time pilot like me flying in the high desert of rural Nevada. Thank you!
You are a pilot that wants to live to fly another day. Great skills.
Благодарю за прекрасные кадры. Успехов!!! Благополучия!!! И много красивых полетов желаю!!!
Good advice, it is the same as landing, if you don't like what you see, don't go there and don't do it.
This was one of your best videos!!! Keep them coming:)
Incredible! High quality production too!
...and always remember, a helicopter to lift you and your plane out of a risky place is still a lot less expensive and much more comfortable than to crash your airplane.
LOL, the cost to airlift an entire aircraft from the backwoods would probably cost just as much as you paid for it. I'd just throttle up into the trees enough to trash the prop and claim brake failure for insurance :V
@@Keys879 I don't fly, but my initial instinct is to think they'd want to really check those breaks before paying out, considering the cost involved - or would they always pay out in this situation irrespective of how the breaks are working? Maybe the insurance is extra high to cover situations like this i.e. they give you extra 'leeway' rather than look for ways not to pay our as in most other insurance cases.
@ Aviation Insurance often times offers that 'leeway' you reference; as a lot more things can go wrong flying an airplane than driving a car.
If you swerve off the road, it was either not to hit something or because you were somehow negligent (drunk, asleep, not paying attention, etc.)
If you swerve off the runway it could be any number of factors out of the pilots control; Winds, airstrip slope, wet/dry pavement, differential braking, ground looping, etc. All of which are valid causes for insurance pay out.
So long as you were licensed, current, and legal while the aircraft was current and licensed, you're usually good.
Great video, if I can learn half of what you know I will be happy. Thanks for sharing, I am always learning thanks to pilots like you.
Another great video and some really good lessons with great examples of airmanship that may save someone else from making a costly error. Thanks for sharing.
Nice flying and even better judgement. I'm a glider pilot, so go into fields I had no intention of visiting - I'm really impressed by this flying.
One of your best clips ,absolutely great flying.
I like the fact you are very safe in your flying and checking things out if in doubt. Best lesson I can imagine for me as I want to always have safety first and not get there itis. Again I am grateful for this video, thanks.
Wise words!! Great video, really like he drone work too it's good to see another view.
Love that rule: "I need to be sure I'll make it".
Lessons from other peoples experiences are valuable. We don't have to make mistakes trying to gain that experience.
Thank you for more great content.
Exactly my thought. He seems to be experimenting with these strips for the first time by himself.
Phew! Insane video......had me on the edge of my seat all of the time......!!!!!
You are a true pilot. You fly as easy and natural as it comes....
Great channel, I love how you nearly crash in every video. You have definitely earned a sub! 👍🏾
Great advice, thanks for the video.
I really enjoying your video. Thanks for sharing
These videos are insane man... awesome
Impressive. You're a great pilot!
All excellent advice. Love it. 👍
Amazing man.. keep posting this videos and great knowledge 👍🏻. My flights has been better since the outstanding experience you keep sharing with us.. greetings from Santa Cruz, Bolivia.
Thank you. Live in WA, low time VFR pilot. I doubt I will get to your skill but want to do some flights into the local mountains. Learn so much from watching you. Have started binge watching from your posts.
Where are you? I'm in Tacoma. I'm about to take my checkride in my Luscombe. Like you, I'm excited about flying in our awesome mountains. I just started posting videos about my flying. Maybe we can fly together sometime.
Another great video Sir!
You are a smart man. Good advice.... try all this with a Taildragger you will enjoy it even more. Thx for this video.... a good one
Great videos! Thank you and keep filming and posting. :-)
I always enjoy your slow approaches and power on landings 6:36. I regularly fly with some CFIs for different reason and they get scared when I apply power just before touchdown 😎 and this is because of you. In my opinion, and you said something similar in one of your other videos, slow flight is one of the most important maneuvers we as a GA pilots should practice all the time. Just few days ago I flew with an very experienced CFI and I was practicing slow flight for a while at different speeds and configurations when he asked me... “can you hear the stall warning horn?” 😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Good advice!
Great skills bro!....vote for Pedro!
Otro video buenísimo, gracias por compartir
Great Video Thanks
Excellent video once more, thanks for sharing. I guess with your skills, if you had to land at JFK New York, you would put it down straight in on the ramp! Who needs that massive runway ? 😀😀😀
Also, when I take off from short runways,I leave the flaps at cero,and set them right before taking off.
Great video, personally I would want a twin engine plane with all that terrain around.
Again a video which I´ve learned a lot from.
Every time I read the title on this video, I can not help but think .... " If you want to fly, every take-off is mandatory, otherwise you can't get up in the air... LOL
Nice looking airplane.
You really had to thread the needle on those. Nice job.
Beautiful views!
Amazing pilot
That was fabulous to watch. Dutch housewife from Holland.
How would it take off with flap zero and 1st hold the stick forward and pull up around known take off speed versus having it in stall shape well before take off?
The Washington landing strip looks like where two pipers collided while both on final. Just looks like the strip.
Always bring a chain saw too!
What is airports you had flew this? Please describe all NAV codes airports for finding this in MSFS 2020.
Great stuff. Very practical advice here. I’ve been curious if you have ever attempted landings on any gravel bars / river beds here in Costa Rica. You seem quite comfortable on the rivers in the US. Is it allowed down here in CR?
Not allowed, you will be in the news and treated like a criminal if you land on a gravel bar in Costa Rica
Why is it 'high' density altitude while the density of the air is low ?
Get that nose wheel off the ground and keep it off through out the take off roll. Also do the same on paved runways. It will greatly extend the time between really costly nose wheel rebuilds.
You’re darned right. Those Cessna nose wheels and strut aren’t made for that sort of workout. I always kept my 150 bugsmashers strut over extended for that reason. Tossing dirt clods with a prop will bring tears. Those places you go have 180 written all over them.
I would hike 5 miles any day for a flight with you sir! I sure miss piloting a 172.
Me too.
What strip is the first one in Idaho?
Is mud in pitot tubes an issue?
Amazing
Any widens on beach landings?
I would use a laser to measure distance with someone holding a reflector, then you know for sure.
Great video as usual. Is that AOA or head Up Display ? On top of your Panel
Yes Alpha systems AoA
Only experience with your own aircraft and various conditions can tell if the ground is too soft/sloping/obstructed etc and although I wasn't flying with you, my heart was in my mouth a couple of times there! Stay safe!
What was that last landing strip in Oregon? Spectacular scenery.
@Steven S. He says in the video that it's Memaloose airstrip in Oregon. It's located 4.25 miles from the Idaho border, on the edge of Hells Canyon at 6670' ASL.
Great Skill! looked like you were going to clip the trees for a moment. Riding that stall horn must be a little frightening? Do you always live with the chance that that plane will go into a stall on the short final?
I use an angle of attack indicator which is way more accurate than the stall warning.
Backcountry182 Interesting, so I guess this visual indicator will tell you exactly if you’re going to enter a stall, and you know to stay right below that borderline
@@daver9643 Yes it shows how much lift you have left.
Boy you needed a good airplane wash after that.
What was that strip in Oregon? I didn't understand what you said. By the way, where are you based? Also, are you from Latin America?
Memaloose in Oregon, I was born in Peru.
@@motoadveBackcountry182 Cool. Thanks. Hopefully, I can swing by that strip sometime. It looks neat (at least when it's dry!). How is it that you do so much flying in the Pacific Northwest?
I've traveled all over Latin America (15 different countries, including Machu Picchu, Lima, etc.) and love it down there.
May I ask what is your "Little" Heads Up Display? or I assume that's what it is?
It’s an angle of attack indicator, which shows how close you are to a stall (exceeding the critical AoA). It’s helpful when you’re coming in very slow for a short field since it’s more precise than a stall warning horn.
Anyone know why Kirk Ledoux’s 185 channel has its content removed? Hope he’s ok.
He is ok
I'm assuming you landed at 1:15, dropped your drone operator off to video the takeoff and then you had to return to pick him up. I didn't see any other way of getting in or out of that area. Also do you have something on your plane that lets you know how close you are to tree tops when your landing? Some of those views looks like your landing gear could be dragging over the tree tops. The view from inside the cockpit at 8:25 I'd say you were throwing up some mud on a landing or takeoff. At 10:45 was that the longest takeoff run you made because you had to because of weight? You are one amazing and gutsy pilot, thank you for sharing the video's.
Yes weight , mud, plus high density altitude made for a very long take off roll.
Guts don’t usually make good backcountry pilots. Good pilots in the bush have long careers because they are always trying to talk themselves OUT of particular destination, not talking themselves into one. I’ve heard more than one backcountry instructor say it’s about being timid and often pessimistic about a landing site, not brave or “gutsy”. This is experience, calculation and confidence in his ability and the known capabilities of his machine.
excelente
Man, washing the plane after landing on a wet strip must suck big time
Tundra tires are your friends!
Strip near Indian Creek
Great video! What’s the name of the WA strip?
Stehekin
For the type of flying you do, a nitrous system for emergency power at high densities would be a handy option. Doesn t need to be hard core boost, just enough to give the engine back it's sea level power. Well, maybe sneak in an extra 15% for those days you want to show off.
Question, are there any good strips in Idaho?
Best place to fly backcountry in the world
Backcountry182, ahh nice, imagine landing in that 6.5 temblor that happened it March.
Should add this to Microsoft flight SIM!
A plane is like a super fast sports car,if you ain't good at driving, better think twice about flying.
I used to fly a Cessna 150, back in the 70s in Nevada, and outside of town, there was no speed limit, so many times I would be flying along the highway and get passed by a car down on the road doing over 100 mph... my top speed in the plane was about 100mph airspeed;;;;;
That nose leg takes a pounding and they are not really suited to this type of flying,I think you would be better off with a tail dragger with Tundras on that boggy surface,some very confident flying there and nicely filmed too,the drone shots really make it,we had a lot of accidents on wet airstrips here in the UK and the CAA did an excellent leaflet 'Aircraft Performance' to make pilots aware of operating from such strips.My word cleaning that airframe must be a pain ! I just want you safe,keep in that ground effect like you do sir.
Thank you for your honesty but there is no way I would get into a plane with you. You take too many risks with dodgy airstrips in the middle of nowhere. You need a properly equipped STOL plane for these kind of destinations.
Dream Flights
You are cutting it awful close on your second take off!
No margins at all.
How long did it take your 200 lb friend to hike out of there after you decided there wasn't enough margin for you to fly him out? lol
Oh boy. No thanks 😂
They're going to be retrieving this guy and plane from a tree top sooner or later.
hope you're wearing a helmet...
