This is flying at its purest. Today I spent almost 10 hours operating an Airbus A320 over Europe, which is nice, but coming home and seeing this video has been so inspiring and a reminder of how much more in touch with the experience it’s possible to be. No computers, no radar vectors or twisting knobs on a panel, just you, the stick and the kingdom you survey. Would love to try it!
I know the feeling. When I fly for my job it's fun but you can easily forget you are flying. When you fly an ultralite, you know EXACTLY what's going on.
After my father lost his pilots license due to heart conditions, he had an ultralight. I imagine this is how he felt when he flew. He rode motorcycles all his life and this was his thrill in life. An excellent example, thank you for sharing this.
На 5 мин. 24 сек. такое "чистое" приземление, как "по учебнику" -- достойно восхищения! Замечательная девчонка - пилотесса! Успехов ВАМ, всего хорошего!
I have flown into that airport one time but have hung out there many, many times over the years. Always enjoy chatting with the personnel on duty. Used to have good conversations with Pete.
This was nice,i found this really relaxing to watch....probably not quite so relaxing flying through.she has to be aware of sudden gusts etc..very nice flying and excellent landing...
She cracks me up! Her little feet go down like old Flintstones cartoon when she slows down, stops an instant teenager, got check phone an send a text! Awesome, shes so confident!
This is my first visit to this channel. Halfway through the video, I used full-screen on my 20-inch monitor and the view was dramatic. I can see what it takes to fly: the foot controls and the steering column. Small movements, nothing dramatic. Thanks for the ride!
Her video randomly came up in my feed while I was looking at place to view at the Mach Loop in Wales, heading there next week, I can imajin her flying there one day, “Dream, Big work hard, & let what you love, be what you do”🤙🏼🙂🐕🐑
I know nothing about ultralight flying, but I would want a helmet, jacket, pants, boots, and gloves. I have a good friend who was in a serious accident in an ultralight. It left him with permanent injuries.
Everything about this is so RIGHT on! But flying open cockpit w/out protective helmet seems so wrong given the great choices in PPG these days. There's no easy recovery from head-trauma in the unlikely event of a survivable crack up. I often wear a helmet and my aircraft is closed cockpit. Just say'in - thank you for reading and keep up the great flying Alina. Respect.
It looks like you got the same weather we had Tue. 78 degrees in Rock Island Il. Love to watch Alina fly. Today wednesday didnt get above freezing. Jer
Hello Mr. William, I enjoyed seeing another flight from Alina. How big is this gas tank? Is it more than 5 gallons? Thank you and good flights to Alina.
I was interested in ultra lite flying back when the planes were made of very thin stone. I had a wife and family. Me and a work friend went to an air field met a guy and asked him some questions. I asked him about flying an ultra lite and life insurance. He said if you crash have a friend drag you out to a road make sure you are dead then run over you with his car. It had to look like a different kind of accident. Alina you make jealous and it looks like you are a real pro. You will be just fine!
Thank you for an enlightening phone conversation William. I am convinced that Alina is getting the preparation and knowledge she needs to safely pursue her dreams of flight.
Indeed flying at its purest, no radials or inner/ outer markers no autopilot, in fact no distractions for what is the greatest feeling in the world. Cant beat an open cockpit and the wind in your hair. In todays aircraft we have lost that basic 'feel' of the aircraft and what it wants to do. Sensing when it will stall or drop a wing. Flight should be an experience you feel within your heart and soul, no fear just the desire to reach greater heights to live your dream. You will go far Alina with you wonderful Papa's teaching and care. Flying intoxicates our blood it cannot be equalled. Yes I agree I do adore her 'brakes' 😉
If you are a pilot and you like to fly, whatever type of aircraft, you’re flying, you know there’s a chance you could end your life that way but your love for flying outweighs the fear of dying that may sound a little crazy if you don’t fly but that’s just the way it is
Everything we do from running a table saw to doing home wiring runs a risk. Life was never meant to be totally safe. Nothing in life is without risk including just driving. It was meant to be lived! Great flight and landing. At 60 I would love to try the same one day.
They fly low where there isn't any commercial aircraft and from airports that commercial aircraft done typically use. They aren't allowed to fly to airports that have a tower unless prior permission is given. And no flight plan is filed. Flight plans are pretty simple.
Did she cross over the airport and turn left to do a direct entry into the left downwind? Is that kosher at that airport, vs a teardrop entry (usually descending) into the pattern?
Hello when the engine was switched off did it diesel on? or run on? It sounded like heat in the plugs ignited un burnt fuel in the combustion chamber? Or is that just something microlight engines do ? May be worth pointing heat sensor gun at the plugs an check temperature is correct. Cheers

Couldn’t agree more!
This is a powerful post!
Careful! Moving from the big jet to li'l bitty airplane upset by a couple knots of gust has claimed too many ATP lives.
@@erickborling1302 I agree, when I switch back and forth there is a bit of a recalibration necessary.

LOVED the Barney Rubble FOOT STOPing on the TAXIWAY!
One very lucky young lady to have a Dad that allows her to fly around in her own ultra lite whenever she wants to.
Well...maybe not whenever she wants... But close.
With her flight experience I think she has earned a few more flights! Go Alina!
Having a daughter of my own, I would day one Brave Dad 😂. Go girl, enjoy!
A@@UncaDave
What an amazing young lady, living life to the fullest.😀
excellent young lady. This country needs more of you, God Bless

She was filling out her flight log .
A very confident young lady pilot. This is all a prelude to an amazing career in aviation.

But this is America, the true wild wild west of yesteryear!
It’s only a matter of time
Amazing video but, as the old seagull said, "You'll never get me up in one of those things!"
You cant always pussy foot around in life. The young ones have a heart of stone and will to survive.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful flight !
A french pilot
relaxed not cold or shivering done this before enjoying the view yet focused then the GREASER of a landing. i gave a Like.
Alina, you are one brave lady.
It looks like you got the same weather we had Tue. 78 degrees in Rock Island Il. Love to watch Alina fly. Today wednesday didnt get above freezing. Jer
I love how you look so relaxed and confident in yourself flying up there... I'm so jealous!
Indeed, and she stuck that landing.
Love it!! Thank you for sharing your exhilarating experience!!
I like how she did the "Fred Flintstone" braking at the end
LOL I just said same thing..LOL
Great video and a perfect approach and landing.
I like how when she shuts her engine off, she immediately…..fills out her log book!
Unless this is a registered aircraft, what would be the point?
I soloed at mks..used to be 50j in 1999. Great folks in monks corner south carolina..just north of Charleston.
Love it!! Great to see young pilots doing what they love, it is after all the best sport out there! Fly safe!👍
it's relaxing watching you fly
Hello Mr. William, I enjoyed seeing another flight from Alina. How big is this gas tank? Is it more than 5 gallons? Thank you and good flights to Alina.
I love that plane! Nice video also.
Beautiful landing! Smooth as silk!
What a epic childhood !

I enjoyed the video immensely, thanks for sharing and greetings from Jamaica.
She must have grown. Her feet/legs reach the pedals better now.
I need one of these in my life so badly.
Thank you for an enlightening phone conversation William. I am convinced that Alina is getting the preparation and knowledge she needs to safely pursue her dreams of flight.
I enjoyed the conversation as well.

Loving the flintstones braking method at the end.
That's exactly what I was thinking ... but we're giving away our age.
Glad to see her wearing eye protection
Great video, but I would really like to see one with outside, ground and air views. Nice one Alina. 😉
Try one of the VR videos.
She did a great job ! 👍
Another solid landing!
Very cool. Thank you for sharing this. 👌😃🌷
That was a great ride! Thanx!
wow Nice landing
My goodness, she's at such high altitude and totally reliant on canvas and hollow metal tubes or pipes.
That was a really fine three point landing. 😁✌🖖
Very cool. 😎 Thanks for the video.
Well done, young lady. 👍
Excellent video! You're off to a great aviation career!
So awesome and relaxing view
Young ........... Earned her wings .
Beautiful flight a toast to you.
Future professional pilot for sure!👍👍
I'm gonna have to look into getting an ultralight. Probably a Challenger ll. That would be so much fun.
As a pilot in his twilight years, I can only say "you go girl", the sky is the limit for you.
Really enjoyed this!
Well done Young Lady!
You must be so proud !!! 😊Congratulations on raising a great kid !!!
I am!

Superb landing. I am jealous!
Nice landing!
Looks like a lot of fun. Stay safe.
Nothing but grease on those landings! Pretty work!
That looks like so much fun 😎
Such confidence.
Love watching… thanks
3 or 4 more camera angles are needed to hold the interest. Like she's in a wind tunnel with a CGI video screen in the background.
Great flying..
Great landing. 👍
You are super and beautiful girl congratulations Alina
Merci pour ces belles images ❤ RF
Very nice machine! Beautiful ^^
She is definitely a lucky girl to be able to enjoy the sky all by herself…
I can see the nose wheel is already turning while in the air.
Looks like a lot of fun....
Do these ultralights ever get in the way with commercial aircraft? Do they have to contact a tower and have a flight plan?
They fly low where there isn't any commercial aircraft and from airports that commercial aircraft done typically use.
They aren't allowed to fly to airports that have a tower unless prior permission is given.
And no flight plan is filed. Flight plans are pretty simple.
She must be a dairy farmer, that landing was butter.
Very impressive! At 42 I can't wait to start flying!
Я прошлом году поднял свой ульталайт в 63 года.
Поздно
Ok, I want one now.
Did she cross over the airport and turn left to do a direct entry into the left downwind? Is that kosher at that airport, vs a teardrop entry (usually descending) into the pattern?
I think she entered midfield crosswinds then a directed entry into the downwind.
Great girl - I´m impressed.
She should've brought her a mini parachute for her safety just in case something goes wrong. Safety is always come first.
Landing like a boss 😊
She is more zen than driving a bike A+
Hello when the engine was switched off did it diesel on? or run on? It sounded like heat in the plugs ignited un burnt fuel in the combustion chamber?
Or is that just something microlight engines do ?
May be worth pointing heat sensor gun at the plugs an check temperature is correct.
Cheers
It does that often. The cht's are fine and the plugs look good so I don't worry about it.
@@williamh.scottv438Умничка, прелесть и просто красавица!
Wow nice little aircraft!.. how much is one of those & do you need a pilots license?.👍
24k. No license needed.
sicherlich traumhaft schön, so zu fliegen...aber war das nicht zu kalt ?
I’m so jelly!
대단합니다. 멋진 아가씨. 당신을 응원합니다. 한국에서
Отличный полёт! Девушка - молодец
Best of luck!
You are awesome 👌
A 3 grados pich? Awesome! Great pilot, 99.99 of the girls don't know how to drive a car!!!
Excellent landing.
Ultralight planes help children w adhd too
Soooooooo coollll!!
Cool
Too kool!
