    Great camera placement behind the copilot's seat. Nice view out those big windows. Go Captain!

    I was a Deputy US Marshal in Puerto Rico, and for about three years we chartered a Caravan to transport inmates back and forth St Thomas and St Croix twice a week. I have to say that I loved that assignment. The aircraft was a joy to fly in. The contract specified that there had to be two pilots in the cockpit all the time-good old days. Stay safe, Captain.

    The skies looked a lot better than they did the evening before this flight. Looks like the owner takes really good care of that plane. Have a great week Jim!

    Thanks for your videos. They help me get back into the cockpit. Left flying in 1988, 1,700 hours, but couldn't find a job flying that paid a liveable wage and after flying night freight in questionable aircraft, I found there wasn't much future in it for me. My, have times changed. If I ever had a chance, I would like to fly that Cessna Caravan. Fly safe!

    @4DavidJohn Před 5 dny

    Hey Jim, well that was a smooth flight! There is a CZcams video about a Kodiak 100 airplane the owner has had a lot of problems i.e. cracked window in flight, peeling paint, custom arm rest paint peeling engine problems, manufacture warranty service is non-existent, there is a customer service number that always picks up but offer ways the owner could take care of his own problems with the plane instead of the warranty service...just numerous problems on a brand-new plane... does the Caravan have problems like that?

    Any way to get you dropping the 'to' and 'for' words on the radio, reserving those strictly as 'two' and 'four' ...? Otherwise, your videos are eminently watchable.

    Why is the safety belt not "active" ? Always great vids Capt - love your channel, many thanks.

    • @captmoonbeam
      @captmoonbeam  Před 3 dny

      Thanks Booysen. I didn't realize it at the time but. I had accidently twisted it under the headrest so it wasn't retracting. Corrected it after engine shutdown.

  • @3890polarnight
    @3890polarnight Před 4 dny

    Nice flight! What's with the seat belt not retracting - fixed length?

  • @graysono
    @graysono Před 5 dny

    I've been watching your fabulous vids for years sir. Love them.
    You should have filmed the big storm arriving as you escaped in Nick of time!
    I noticed a couple of times in this vid you replied to ATC by saying "... for One Quebec"
    But it comes across as "Four One Quebec" as in N41Q.
    I looked it up and N41Q hasn't been used since 2020. It was on a Quickie light plane.
    ATC knows you're N1Q but I wonder if saying "... for One Quebec" may get muddled one day.
    Just a thought!
    Best from me Down Under in Middle Earth!

    I noticed on your previous flight and this one as well that there is something shiny on your prop about halfway up. What is causing it? Paint off the prop or something else?

    • @ghueser
      @ghueser Před 5 dny +1

      If you are referring to the “circle” of white from the cockpit looking forward…… those are paint stripes that McCauley puts on each blade. Not sure why, I have it as well.

    i recommend not raising the nose wheel so high when towing just raise the plate only couple inches to just barely clear the ground. well that's how i was taught to tow planes.

      That is perfectly acceptable for tugging the Caravan. Captain knows what he’s doing.
