Have enjoyed seeing your 'happy to be back' over rural Victoria video Stef. Up to your usual high standard. Your down-to-earth, no BS approach is refreshing.
Great video as always Stef! I think everyone’s had to dodge one of the Oxford Seminoles coming back into Moorabbin 😂. I’m actually going up today for the first time since May.... can’t wait!
Thanks for the inspiring videos Stefan! I started my PPL this year and went solo today for the first time :) Whenever I'm feeling discouraged I always check out your videos and they help to pick me back up again! Great to see you back in the air again. Nice hair by the way ;) You're now beyond what I like to call the "mushroom phase", next stop: metalhead!
Wonderful video! As a newly minted instrument pilot myself (checkride was just two days ago), I enjoyed riding along and taking notes as you shot your approaches. Thanks a lot!
Great to see you back flying again Stefan. Well done to all the Victorians who pushed through these past few months. Hope to see you back in Queensland soon.
I love your videos bro. They are so high quality and enjoyable to watch. Your an inspiration to us all. Oh also I would love for you to bring back the friday flying tips (i think thats what you called it)
Much enjoyed your video. Great to see Regional Victoria today. (Sat14thNov with 15 Zero Covid19 Days in a row in VIC/Melb). [from pilot who soloed at RVAC MB in 1957]
When you start your approach brief I was always taught to start with the title of the plate and the date of the plate to ensure that it was current and in a multi-pilot situation to ensure we were using the same plate.
lovely day for a fly, I've just done over 35 hours in SA up to NT Alice and Tanami and a whole lot of other places and then to Border town WA SA and kangaroo island then back home in my jabiru. Lucky i was flying myself for work in my own plane and had all the required permits due to COVID.
Another smashing video Stefan. Really enjoying these but making me realise just how much I miss flying. My PPL training came to an abrupt halt nearly 2 months ago with all the additional restrictions in the UK so can't wait to get back out again in a couple of weeks time!
Hey Stef, congrats on passing your IPC! I’m studying my CPL(H) at moorabbin (I also have my PPL(A)) and hear you on the radio from time to time, which is cool! Love your content and passion for aviation! Welcome back to the skies!
Thanks so much Stef. For the duration of my ppl I've watched your videos and learned so much. Now I'm doing my flight training and finding you videos to be nothing less than inspiring. Thanks again and keep up the videos. P.S. please sim video again
Hairiaising moment when I realised you were still flying nav mode and not GPS but you soon realised and corrected. Milkshake confident to fly with you again!
Great video Stef, cameras are perfect 👍 Not sure why you would choose to fly to my birth place though? It's the windiest, most gusty, most undesired place to fly to 😂 Hopefully not much longer until you can fly north again 🤞 Keep the videos coming in the meantime though, I'm happy to kick in a few bucks for fuel, but you don't have an Applaud button 🤔
When flying in Scandinavia in the winter I found that they put either lime green or bright orange colouring in their de-icing fluids. If your TKS had some colour you might be able to see it better.
Congrats on the IPC - just did mine too, about 4 weeks ago. Now that the borders are coming down, let's all get out there and explore more of the eastern states! Good times.
Make sure you grow that hair long Stef, the longer the better. Yes, i guess you need a bit more flying time to get back into the swing of things. That country side looks great and it will look even better when you upgrade to the Vision jet in the future. Thanks mate.
Thanks Josh, yes I've been many times. I'd like to fly EYZ over there one day too, once travel restrictions ease a bit further that could be a fun trip.
From an ex roadie when in my early 20s had hair down to my butt, & now shaved bald, I kill to have that hair. 🤣 Also during your check list you forgot "testicles spectacles wallet and watch!"
Hey mate, next time you come to Warrnambool, let me know. I'd love to come out to the airpoirt and get some footage for you landing, also have a drone which i think we could nail some good footage!
Nice one Stefan. Interesting to see that fuel vent at the beginning, was that down to an overpressure in the tank or simply just a high fuel quantity? P.s.you could pass as a long haired rocker😂
Seeing you in shorts just realized me the obvious; it's spring over there? 😉 I often forget you're down under and that you guys celebrate Christmas in shorts 😋 We do not... 🤣
Hello Stefan! Love the channel! Shout out from the United States. Lol I also need a PIC and I’ve got the chance to do it because of the pandemic :( I feel like the FAA regulations are some what similar to Australia, with few exception like using supplemental oxygen which you guys are above 10k. Love to learn more about Australia regulations for GA pilot. Does the airport charge you any landing fees? What are the operational cost, like fuel, hanger, insurance and etc. Would be nice if you can make a video out of it!
Stef, I have no idea how to send you a video request or question. So, I am doing it here. Can you please do a video on electric trim in Cirrus, how to use it? when to use it? etc. thanks
Hey mate being on the ocean all my life from Albany wa to Darwin alcohol problem etc you’ve given me hope I really love to get a pilot license and fly because because on the ocean etc makes you yeah love your videos mate it’s made me believe again and I’d love to do a flight with you
hahahahaha Stefan the lockdown is over .. you can get a hair cut again... at least i think... NSW can i know that... hahahaha but to get serious its good to see you in the air again
If you're doing an instrument approach for real, like in clouds, and you get to the minimum altitude and still can't see the runway, you're not allowed to continue to descend and have to fly the "missed approach" (usually a climb and sometimes a turn to a new waypoint). So I was practising that, pretending it was a bad weather day.
Have you taken your hair in to account on the mass&balance and performance calculations?
I like your hair Stefan. “Maybe he’s made for it, maybe it’s Quarantine.”
Ye ikr. His hair looks nice
It just goes to show, one absolutely MUST keep up with actual flying in order to remain on top of the job of piloting... Thanks again Stef.
Have enjoyed seeing your 'happy to be back' over rural Victoria video Stef. Up to your usual high standard. Your down-to-earth, no BS approach is refreshing.
Cheers Paul, it was really good to get out of the city finally. Thanks for watching.
So good to be watching you back in the air where you belong Steph.
Great video as always Stef! I think everyone’s had to dodge one of the Oxford Seminoles coming back into Moorabbin 😂. I’m actually going up today for the first time since May.... can’t wait!
That's great news Michael, have a fun flight.

Welcome back to the hair... I mean air 😶😂
Whair?😂
Wonderful video! As a newly minted instrument pilot myself (checkride was just two days ago), I enjoyed riding along and taking notes as you shot your approaches. Thanks a lot!
Your hair looks really good blowing in the wind.
Stefs hair looks amazing! I don’t understand what all this fuss is about 😂
Great to see you back flying again Stefan. Well done to all the Victorians who pushed through these past few months. Hope to see you back in Queensland soon.
Hey Stef. I love your honesty about being a little rusty and recognising the mistakes you make.
As a VFR pilot that was very informative
Cheers Harold, glad you enjoyed it.
must feel good finally being hairborne again after the long lockdown.
I love your videos bro. They are so high quality and enjoyable to watch. Your an inspiration to us all. Oh also I would love for you to bring back the friday flying tips (i think thats what you called it)

Thanks for watching, and yes great news from all of Victoria. Excited to get out and see more of this great state and country.
@@StefanDrury :-)
Had my first official lesson out at Lilydale today. Thanks for the inspiration Stef!
Yayy, Milkshake is back!!
When you start your approach brief I was always taught to start with the title of the plate and the date of the plate to ensure that it was current and in a multi-pilot situation to ensure we were using the same plate.
You are a true inspiration to a new training pilot!
Last time I was this early i had a decent joke
Outstanding training video .
Great video Steph
Nice trip. Thank you!!!
i love aviation
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Then you clicked on the right video 👍
Who doesn’t
lovely day for a fly, I've just done over 35 hours in SA up to NT Alice and Tanami and a whole lot of other places and then to Border town WA SA and kangaroo island then back home in my jabiru. Lucky i was flying myself for work in my own plane and had all the required permits due to COVID.
would have been a hairy landing in Warnanbool with that cross wind
Hopefully meet you one day mate and thank you for your inspiration
Another smashing video Stefan. Really enjoying these but making me realise just how much I miss flying. My PPL training came to an abrupt halt nearly 2 months ago with all the additional restrictions in the UK so can't wait to get back out again in a couple of weeks time!
i really love your hair Stefan, you always rock the out-of-bed look!

Fascinating.
Great seeing you do cross country flights again
Love the video Stef, great to see you flying again 😀
Thanks so much Stef. For the duration of my ppl I've watched your videos and learned so much. Now I'm doing my flight training and finding you videos to be nothing less than inspiring. Thanks again and keep up the videos. P.S. please sim video again
Thanks Hawket that's nice to hear. I wish you all the best with your flight training, enjoy your flying.
Hairiaising moment when I realised you were still flying nav mode and not GPS but you soon realised and corrected. Milkshake confident to fly with you again!
Good for you.
Your covid hairdoo is killin it!! Having a few flyaway hairs when you are an aviator is appropriate!:-)
The first flight I ever made was 30 years ago out of Royal Vic Aero Club in Moorabbin in a two seater rego EYU. Echo Yankee Uniform.
Maybe EYZ has a long lost sister she didn't know about.
Great video Stef, cameras are perfect 👍 Not sure why you would choose to fly to my birth place though? It's the windiest, most gusty, most undesired place to fly to 😂 Hopefully not much longer until you can fly north again 🤞 Keep the videos coming in the meantime though, I'm happy to kick in a few bucks for fuel, but you don't have an Applaud button 🤔
Great video mate 👍
ooooooo, last time i saw one of your vids was in early September, this looks siiiick!!!
Welcome back SirCooper, enjoy the video.
Nice flight thank you for that. I like how you secured your passenger.
Great to see you back in the air again Stef. It would be cool if Cirrus CZcamsrs could get screen captures from the PFD & MFD.
Another fantastic video Stef! Thank you kindly :)
We’ve missed you too (Regional Victoria)!
Great video as always!
You should come down to Ballarat one day. That would be cool. Have a good day!
Great flight Stef!
Nice video, the Cirrus is actuality faster than the Piper Seminole
Thanks for the vid stef, another good one! Im flying circuits tomorrow in my rpc training. Looks like it should be good weather for it here in brissy.
Great stuff, enjoy the circuits, hope you get good weather.
Hair we go!
Wow.amazing
When flying in Scandinavia in the winter I found that they put either lime green or bright orange colouring in their de-icing fluids. If your TKS had some colour you might be able to see it better.
Stefan,
Just wanted to say hello and welcome you back to the air:)
Cheers,
Rik Spector
Thanks as always Rik, it's great to be back flying again.
YOUR HAIR!.... WAIT don't delete me! Your hair looks MAJESTIC!
Congrats on the IPC - just did mine too, about 4 weeks ago. Now that the borders are coming down, let's all get out there and explore more of the eastern states! Good times.
Congrats on the IPC! And well said, yeah a good excuse to get out and explore more of our own backyard now.
So many comments about the hair, its almost like he wanted people to comment on it!
Edit: Oh hey, I can see work at 3:20. Cool!
hairs looking good stef!
Make sure you grow that hair long Stef, the longer the better. Yes, i guess you need a bit more flying time to get back into the swing of things. That country side looks great and it will look even better when you upgrade to the Vision jet in the future. Thanks mate.
Nice to see you back in the air Stef. Seems a lot of QF aircraft have left Avalon. However as for your h..... 🙊
Remember me. My flight school has been delayed because of lockdown in the UK🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thank you soomuch for posting this vedios
arrgh so jealous i cant wait for my first flight back next week
Great hair!!! 😂
So tempting to drift right of centreline at YMAV to get a good camera shot at those 787's
Awesome video Stefan! Ever been to New Zealand?
Thanks Josh, yes I've been many times. I'd like to fly EYZ over there one day too, once travel restrictions ease a bit further that could be a fun trip.
@@StefanDrury I would love to see a video on your trip!
I'm struggling with the NZ PPL Air Tech syllabus, do you have any tips or tools that you used or recommend for PPL pilots
From an ex roadie when in my early 20s had hair down to my butt, & now shaved bald, I kill to have that hair. 🤣
Also during your check list you forgot "testicles spectacles wallet and watch!"

Thanks for watching Kingston
Seeing you in shorts just realized me the obvious; it's spring over there? 😉 I often forget you're down under and that you guys celebrate Christmas in shorts 😋 We do not... 🤣
Cool heir

Lots of shearer’s out in the bush would be happy of a bit of extra work .
Stef, I have no idea how to send you a video request or question. So, I am doing it here. Can you please do a video on electric trim in Cirrus, how to use it? when to use it? etc. thanks
Almost wondered where milkshake was
Hey mate being on the ocean all my life from Albany wa to Darwin alcohol problem etc you’ve given me hope I really love to get a pilot license and fly because because on the ocean etc makes you yeah love your videos mate it’s made me believe again and I’d love to do a flight with you
Hard to see but do you keep the CAPS placard completely covering the handle or is it offset a bit? Great video
You should come back to Bendigo and I could meet you maybe!!
So nice to see you flying out with milk shake.Lmao
Amazing flight stef next time can u go up to mangalore
why does it look like tango dieltia siera
13:40 That helicopter was cruising
we can do stuff now
How do you find the Jeppesen charts vs the ones provided by the AIP?
I wish i could pay for my PPL
Hey my instructor told me we it comes toMDA (circling to land) we do not need to add 50(pec)
Your hair looks... nice! Also Yay milk shake
Not a pilot but where do you use the info for your ILS???
On your Around the world trip can you land at KOJC?
But I have to make hair comment. Looks fly AF!
I will not comment on your hair, but have you ever considered giving your wife sheep shears for whichever occasion you can think of?
You don’t need to add PEC to the circling MDA? It isn’t a DA.
You don't need to bring your IF goggles for the flight. Your hair will do the job.
What iPad case are you using?
hahahahaha Stefan the lockdown is over .. you can get a hair cut again... at least i think... NSW can i know that... hahahaha but to get serious its good to see you in the air again
Can you elim5 , Why did you do a. missed approach ?
If you're doing an instrument approach for real, like in clouds, and you get to the minimum altitude and still can't see the runway, you're not allowed to continue to descend and have to fly the "missed approach" (usually a climb and sometimes a turn to a new waypoint). So I was practising that, pretending it was a bad weather day.
What about that fuel leak🤔
Hey stef. How does milkshake go flying over cows?
