  • A little late, but better late than never!!
    In the summer of 2022 we visited the Billie Eilish concert in Zurich, Switzerland. (check out that video here:) • FLYING MYSELF to BILLI...
    On the way back to the Netherlands we took a detour via France and made a stop in the famous coastal town of Paris Plage Le Tourquet. On the way we review this aircraft: a brilliant yellow Bristell B23, and name our pro's and con's. We stayed the night and had a wonderful croissant on the beach before returning the airplane back to the Netherlands.

    It's about time. You've been MIA for too long & have deprived us of a very informative & entertaining channel. Welcome back. So far you have 6 likes & the video hasn't even aired yet. I was wondering whether you might be back in SA for the summer?

    What a great pleasure to see you / all of you again. Wonderful flight in the best weather, even if the air was sometimes bumpy. Great adventure with French flair, your loving family and the nice dog. Cool airplane, stopover to pee, the best thing is the rousing, heart-warming mood in all your videos. Many thanks for that! Always happy landings.

    Le Touquet is one of the closest French airports to England, so a lot of British GA pilots fly there as their first international flight and apparently the lunch is Great. Also you can't beat Masai Shukas for picnic blankets 😊

    Great to see you back again. I am watching from New Zealand.
    This flight brings back memories of a flight I made (as pilot) from Toussus le Noble (Paris) tracking to Le Touqet then Clacton and on to Norwich in a Piper Seneca.
    And another flight where I stopped in Leylestat on my way to Italy in a Thorpe T211.

    It's not the ocean but the English Channel. Redraw the map because the Atlantic Ocean is located far and to the south.

    Wassup everybody! So I've had the pleasure of flying this airplane as well, and I confirm all of the above. Very good performance overall but especially on climbing, gives you engine power when you need it, the interior is amazing and very up-to-date. It´s actually as good as it gets. Even though the auto-pilot doesn't include auto throttle, its still an amazing autopilot for a plane of this size and category. Very agile due to the low wing, and you get to see everything due to the glass fibre canopy. Also its got a very silent engine. Good job

  • @Kamikaziidare

    Welcome back, greetings from South Africa. Amazing how clear radio comms are on your channel compared to some USA channels, I’m not sure if it is just the recording or are comms generally better in RSA and Europe compared to the USA. As an ex-ATC I often think I wouldn’t cope well with such poor quality RT Comms. Next year, God willing, my wife and I move to the Western Cape near Gansbaai, you two should come visit the area again.
