  • We went for a flight in the Cirrus SR20 across Texas, and I encountered my latest Texas Problem - avoiding turtles on the taxiway!

    Love the OV-1 Mohawk sitting behind the Embraer.

    I wonder if that turtle had to go home & change it's shell after that close call. lol

      It's OK, he worked for the refuelling company (Shell). I'll see myself out.

    Your radio communications are excellent. Time to get that multi engine rating.

    A good firm landing, it was nicely done in that cross wind

    Very cool to see you 2 in a much updated plane. Appears like you could use a tad bit more leg room though. LOL

    Wonderful video Noel! Thanks for sharing this trip! I know a physical therapist who owns a Cirrus SR22. Is it harder to fly with the side stick then it is with airplanes that have a yoke?

    Awesome video Noel! Are you Cirrus SR-20 certified now? If so huge congratulations 🎉🎈 I know you’ll be a Cirrus-ly good pilot! 😂 😑
    That joke is so good I heard it the other day feel free to use it… Also since you live in the USA 🇺🇸 now will you be attending the Oshkosh Expo this year? Also at 14:52 that’s one sad Beechcraft V-tail Bonanza I recon it’s a J-35 Bonanza. 😬

    Hey Noel. Good to have you in Texas! I’m originally from the UK myself(Coventry). moved to Houston when I was young. Btw I found a fish and chips place that is just as good as the Uk! It’s called the chipper, in katy. Look it up! And keep up the great videos.

    Thought you were going to taxi all the way there. Boy that runway sure looked thin not very wide.

  • @brianjrichman

    Noel, the town is called pronounced "Booda" (as in the eastern god), not Beuddda. They are famed for the annual Dachshund races held there.

    Airliners also tend to firm up on landings in heavy rain to reduce the risk of aqua planing

    You should visit the commemorative air force at the airport in San Marcus several WW2 aircraft including a b25 and a c47 that took part in the DDay landings. They allowed me to get into the cockpit because one of my favorite movies was 30 seconds over tokyo. They also have one of the zeros that was used in the filming of Tora Tora Tora and pearl harbor.

    There was a small bounce. Was landing too firm? Scott Manley maybe watching 😁. Cirrus is nice. What's next, a twin prop Seneca?

    Your wife went with you today! I hope she enjoyed her flight in the Cirrus! I am just so confused by all of the radio talk & I just don't know how you locate your destination! I would have to stop & ask for directions! 😄😄😄😄

    Cirrus or Piper Noel? That side stick looks so awkward on the Cirrus but yeah which do you prefer overall? Great video as always, thank you.

  • @billygeorgepricespackland

    Have you completed your training with the Cirrus that you were doing now! Your take off and landings have improved since watching you train on that type of plane what is the biggest change between this plane and the cesnas you flew in the past

    Noel, here in America we don't call them "Estates" (as in an English 'council estate' and all the negative connotations that can bring), we call them "Sub-Divisions".

    • @stevejones6174
      @stevejones6174 Před rokem +1

      Estate sounds way better if you ask me. I hate telling people I live in a subdivision lol. Estate sounds royal and with pride. Subdivision is the house version of an office cubicle 😂

      @@stevejones6174 Estate works when you have 100's of acres to wander about in. In the UK, we have "Council Estates" which here in the USA are like "The Projects"...

    This old timer (not you Noel) is an accident waiting to happen. Not being familiar with an airport is totally fine, but Harrison Ford has nothing on this guy. There I am in England moaning about the geriatrics on the road; with many not even driving for however long because of COVID; they're a menace is most cases on the road! In the air however; another issue; perhaps worried citizens could share their concerns with the FAA about this old timer who thinks it's ok to be unfamiliar with a new airport because ATC have nothing better to do etc.
