  • I received a LOT of comments about the music being too loud in my first version of this video so I decided to make and upload a new version of it with the music turned way down and removed for much of the dialogue. Enjoy!
    Come along with Mark and me as we go through the process of planning and flying a flight across the Pacific Ocean to Kona, Hawaii. Awesome stuff!

    Yay! This one is great with the music scaled back. Since I live in Hawaii, I am always interested in aviation videos taken around the islands. KOA is one of the airports that I have frequently flown into over the years and remember when they built it in the late 1960s when I was just a kid. Lots of private jets go to KOA as you may have noticed. Lots of vacation homes on the island for the rich and famous.

    Much better with the music volume down. Enjoyed flying along with you guys and enjoyed the interaction that you two had in the cockpit. Not a pilot myself, but I am a techie and enjoyed watching the instrumentation. Heading down to Honolulu in May of 2024 on the way to Philippines. Looking forward to rewatching that leg of the trip in person. Nice job.

    Super! I’ve taken my adult children to Hawaii four times, each visit to a different island. When my son and I landed (as passengers) in Kona, my first thought was, “Wow, this is ugly, like a moonscape.” It was only the following morning when we could see the beauty and diverse landscape of the Big Island.

    • @johnkluenker
      @johnkluenker  Před rokem

      Agreed! Landing at Kona is definitely the ugliest landing of anywhere in Hawaii that I have experienced. But I certainly love the big island once you get out and explore. The ability to choose your weather and climate, depending on where you are on the island is a big plus as well, but you are correct. The first impression is not the greatest! 😆

    That music during the landing at Kona was awesome. Was surprised to see you guys flying at FL43/FL47. At least it gets you up above the "flying buses" down at FL37 and below. Gotta ask: What are the weird things on your chest and around your neck?

    How much fuel did you land with? Some say the X pushes it to Hawaii but my guess is you must have a solid hour of fuel left plus reserves. Not to mention you did have the night winds.

    • @johnkluenker
      @johnkluenker  Před rokem

      The X actually does really well going to Hawaii. I have done probably about 20 crossings. I have had to fight 80 knot average headwinds on occasion.
      We almost always land with over 3000 pounds of fuel remaining, which is plenty in the X. Going back to the mainland. We usually have a tailwind so once we know we have plenty of fuel, we push up the thrust and go fast.
