- Join us as we fly our Cessna 310 IFR to St Louis Downtown (CPS) for a RNAV low approach followed by the "Arch Tour". We then fly to Decatur (DEC) for dinner. We finish the flight by landing back home at Aurora (ARR) just after the sun set. This time, things go mostly as planned.

Enjoyed this ride so much! You guys are the best. Brings back some great memories!
This is an awesome channel. Love the ATC prospective. Really makes you guys different. Keep it up!
Thank you Nicholas! Glad you like it. It's nice to be able to provide a slightly different perspective.
Happened upon this video today. Been watching your latest videos for the past month or so. I couldn’t get over how good Jaime is on the radio and how well both of you work together as a crew. Most importantly you both have fun! And you both are very down to earth human beings! Thank you for genuinely being yourselves. I’m glad to have “met” you.
So now I know Jamie is a controller. I’m guessing Kevin that you are too? Jaime, it’s interesting to hear your responses and procedures when talking with ATC. It’s also interesting to hear a controller’s point of view on things while said controllers are crewing an airplane in the ATC environment. Keep up the good work. You guys do an excellent job!!
I’ve been flying professionally (corporate aviation) all of my life. Soloed at 16. You are both great teachers. Thank you for your time putting videos out there so that we can all learn from you!
George
I love these video's I have never visited America but have family there, its great to see all the places you visit, and the flying is amazing, love from England xxx.
This is my first viewing of your posts. This has to be the most educational video I’ve ever watched, respective of ATC relations and GA small aircraft for both IFR and VFR communications. Thank you! All of my flying has been out of MWC, BLV, CPS and now BMI, so this video was especially enjoyable to me. Looking forward to watching more of your videos!
Thank you! Your exact comment is why we have decided to take the time to put these videos up. We want to be able to share our aviation experiences with others and hopefully people find them fun and or informative. Lot's more planned for this year. Thank you again for taking the time to watch and comment!
My condolences to you and your family.
Sounds like a wonderful grandmother that had positive influence in all your families life.
As a old aircraft mechanic I really like how you keep your aircraft up tight and clean. One nice aircraft. New to your channel looking forward to new videos.
Already a huge fan. Can’t wait to see more.
Thank you! Really glad you like it. Lot's more planned for the year.
Really liked the Flight Progress Strip lesson that you all taught. Love the videos. Keep it up!
Enjoyed the ATC Strip lesson + sharing your knowledge of fuel feed to engines, etc. good stuff!
That was a great tour of the Arch. I live about 250 miles west of there, just east of Kansas City. Been to the Arch many times but only saw it from the ground up, this is the first time from the air and it looked spectacular. Love the communication between the two of you and I really enjoy the tutorial you give including ATC along the way not to mention some great video views, excellent camera work. I'm so glad you explain what your doing and why, one great channel and will definitely be waiting for more. Your a great team with an excellent channel, keep the video's coming and happy flying.
Thank you for the comments about the channel! Glad you think it's turning out well. We have lot's more planned for the year. Glad we could show the view from the air...that was my first time as well. It's iconic.
I have been binge watching your videos. I like that you fast forward the taxi and don't cut it out. I also appreciate you calling out procedures. It helps to understand what got doing even if I have no clue. This is my favorite channel. Thanks.
Thank you Dale for the awesome compliment! Glad you are enjoying the videos and our format. Lot's more neat videos coming out and I'll try to explain some additional things in future videos.
Really enjoy your flights! Great scenery, and like the ATC audio, being able to see your panel indicators and your comments en route,. Thank you. Happy 2020! Can't wait to see more. Best regards..
Thank you for the feedback Dave and really glad you're enjoying it! We are looking forward to some fun 2020 aviation adventures. :)
I stumbled upon your videos and have become hooked on them. Watching you two working together as a team is truly amazing because most couples struggle while traveling anywhere. Watching your videos puts a smile on my face every time. I wish for a million safe sky miles for the both of you and keep the videos rolling.
Awesome....glad you found us and are enjoying the channel! Thank you for the nice comment!
geerbangr, I don't know if you saw a video where Kevin flew 771BC in to get new radars but Jaime was working on the ground and both of them had a short conversation and it was cool to hear her, even though she wasn't in the plane with him.
Excellent video. Look forward to many more from you both.
Thank you Joshua! We have lots of cool flights planned for the year. I'll keep working to improve on each one.
Almost choked up a bit when I saw your sissor hanger door. Dad and I built the hanger for 'debi' and he was the first one to have the electric sissor door. Never forget my first flight breakfast and my trip to Oshkosh. Flying makes awesome memories.
Thanks again for great videos and great detail!! Keep the spinners shiny
Thanks for the comment Wayne! Pretty cool your dad was a pioneer on hangar doors. Love our scissor door! Glad you are enjoying the channel. :)
You guys are off to a great start! Added to my set of top notch aviation follows...plus its nice to see my ole stomping grounds of 20 years ago... to many more videos!
Thank you Jeff! Means a lot. We have many more planned for this year. Should be some good ones hopefully!
Thanks for taking us along on the tour of the Arch. I use to live in STL and in Wheaton and I am really enjoying your videos. Wife and I use to own Arlington Flight Center and River City Aviation here in Memphis. Keep up the good shooting and I look forward to more videos.
You're welcome. Thanks for watching. Glad you liked it.
Kind of new to your channel, coming over from Steveo. You guys ROCK. It's awesome to see a couple like yourselves enjoying something like flying TOGETHER.. You are one VERY lucky man. a) you have a wonderful co-pilot and b) you have the prettiest co-pilot around! I love that Cessna twin. That and the Beechcraft Baron are two of my fave airplanes around... Great video and I can't wait to see all the rest of what you folks posted...
This channel is going to blow up! Such great content, editing, etc. Please continue to take us along on your trips, you two. Love it.
Thanks Daniel! I'm glad you like it. I will continue to post our flying adventures for as long as they are enjoyed.
@@310Pilot I have a question. I have seen this in several other videos that you have made. Just before takeoff you run the mixture levers full forward and then the throttles. Shouldn't they be already there? I mean when you start the engines they should be full rich. Do you pull them back after start for some reason?
@@justadreamin1004 You are correct. Full rich for startup. However, you then lean the mixture for taxiing. Full rich at low rpm or MP = fouled plugs.
Thanks for sharing - very well done and thanks for taking us through the non visible backgrounds ... your ATC GF rocks, smart, funny, beautiful ... you are one lucky guy!
You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the feedback. I agree with you...I am one lucky guy!!
I love the way you two share the workload! Very professional flying!
Thanks! We make a good team!
Another great video, and thanks for a little insight into how ATC keeps it all together.
Thank you Denny! We are glad to try to give whatever we can from the other side of the mic. Seems people enjoy hearing about it.
Great to see you both again and what a great way to Communicate with ATC . Your First officer handles the Radios very well. Nice to file IFR and I enjoyed your takeoff and the sound of power and like you said your rate of climb was indicating 1500 feet per minute and to get lean of peak temperatures for both engines is somewhat a challenge to not let the cyclinder head temp get to hot at your present altitude . Winter flying is so much better for performance and cruise. Thank you for sharing the low approach over the airport to the ST Louis tour from the Air .
I'm glad I remembered to turn the engine background on. I deselected it last video. I like it better with them humming in the background.
Hey man! You are such an inspiration. I begin flying in September and will be working a program all the way to MEI. I aim to be a pilot but until I reach 31 my dream is to become an ATC. You’re living it brotha! I’ll be watching every single one of your videos! I loved your ADM in your last video by choosing to stay out of deteriorating weather conditions! Gday!
i believe theres a college in the pittsburgh area that trains ATC, 2 yr program . CCBC. Check it out
Thank you Doughboy! I started as a pilot and switched to ATC. I love the decision (easy at the time as the airlines were struggling). Good luck to you in your future aviation endeavors! I'm sure whichever path you end up on will be rewarding. We still need lots of controllers and the pilots are hurting too. Good time to be getting into aviation!
Just discovered your channel recently. Big fan. I’ve got my private SEL. It’s evident you guys are ATC. Your fiancé is a hoot. She adds spice to your videos. Look forward to more videos, thanks.
Glad you found us and are enjoying it Russel! I love my spicy co-pilot...she for sure adds quite a bit to the videos. :) Lot's more fun trips planned for the year when the plane gets out of annual.
Great video you two. By being Controllers, your communications with other Controllers brings an awesome perspective from the usual CZcams channels. Even though she's not a pilot, she can rival the in-flight pros. I could listen to her voice all day. Keep the videos coming!
Thank you Gerry! I'm glad we can provide a perspective different than others. I agree, talking to pilots all day, she is better than a lot of people on the freq! She does have a sweet native Alaskan voice! :)
My wife and I were controllers in the 70s and early 80s (TUL and RVS). Had a 310-B. It's a little bit of deja vu watching the two of you. Brings back a lot of memories. "Thanks for the memories."
Ha ha...I bet it is a bait of deja vu with that combo! Glad to bring back some fond memories for you. :)
From the ATL, thank you so much for sharing parts of your life in the air! Go Dogs!
That's so beautiful thank you for the view. I've never seen the arch before now. I'm hooked to this channel now.
Wow, this brought back some memories. I flew around the arch in '78 when I gave my dad his only airplane ride.
Glad to bring back some fond memories Darrell! :)
Love the video. The ATC onboard perspective is awesome as well. You guys make a great team in the air.
Thanks Tim! Glad you like the ATC spin on the flight.
WOW!!! That was a really great flight, Guys. Really enjoyed the ATC communications, and all the detail you gave us during the flight. I’m sure it is really handy having her in the cockpit handling all the radio work for you, and she did a great job. You can tell she really knows what she is talking about, when talking with ATC. Plus, that allowed you to focus on flying the aircraft. Flying with you two, and with both of you being ATC Controllers, it feels like we are experiencing every level of the flight with you. Too bad about the batteries dying when they did, but that’s technology for you. Enjoyed the view of the Arch, too. You’ve got you a keeper there with that special Lady, Sir. Keep the videos coming, and thanks for sharing them with us. God Bless, and safe flying.
Thanks Richard! Very nice comment! I'm glad you are enjoying the videos. We are excited to share our aviation experiences with others. She is very handy (and fun) to fly with. Great on the radio, understands all ATC procedures, great at helping spot traffic, etc. I will figure out the batteries. Someone here mentioned they sell super extended versions...I will look into that. We will keep them coming...several fun trips planned this year!
310 Pilot Thanks for your kind comment. BTW, I saw in other Comments that you served in the Air Force, so I just wanted to say Thank you for your service. I’m a Vietnam Era Veteran, US Army, 1966-1968. I have a special appreciation for all veterans, past and present.
Thank you Richard! And thank you for your service as well! My dad and granddad are both prior Army as well. My dad was a Huey pilot. My grandfather served in WW2 in the 9th Infantry Division.
Each day is a new day to be thankful and blessed
Jaime thanks for the spin around of the landscape! Gorgeous view y'all had.
Glad you enjoyed it! I just picked up a 3rd camera...thinking we need 4 for different views at times.
You guys have inspired me to get my pilot's license. What a joy to fly along with you!
Love your videos. Watching and listening is helping me with radio skills in preparation for getting my instrument ticket. Keep up the good work!
Glad you like them and you find them helpful in your training. Good luck on the instrument rating!
GUMPS check, Beautiful Controller (right seat ; ) working radios check. Can't wait for the next video... you two have a great channel in the making. Keep um coming great job!
I agree and thank you! We have a lot more planned for the year.
Cool trip! You sure do learn a lot about talking to controllers on your channel. Definitely a good example to follow. Also a great voice for GA. Keep 'em coming!
Awesome...glad you think so!! Next video in a day or two where we make it to the first island we visit during the trip.
Damn the battery! Was so looking forward to view of Decatur and area south on approach. Thanks for the flight ... love your vids!
"Hacker double yoke" says awesome videos! learned to fly as a boy in the 60's setting in the back seat of a 172 as my dad realized a lifelong dream. used to sneak out to the hanger to clean leading edges and struts so dad would take me up. Some time in a C33 debonair. Love all the detail and time you take to explain the IFR and flight plan requirements.
Thank you Wayne, glad you enjoyed the video!
I learn a lot from this, I am not a pilot but practice on x-plane and love all the info. Thank you
I think I have a new favorite flight team to watch. As a former ASTAC (anti surface/subsurface air controller) love the communications coordination and radio proficiency. Nicely done 👍✈️
Wow, thank you John! Glad you are enjoying it so far. We should have lot's more fun stuff in store for the year. Thank you for your service!
Really enjoy your videos...Jamie’s voice is so nice, so pleasant ....Definitely a lucky guy
Thank you Gary and I agree! :)
I took a aviation class in High School and thought for a short time I wanted to be a ATC. .
Just subscribed today and watched two videos. 24:06 made my afternoon. Thank you for that. Best airshow was in St. Louis in 1996. Viewed a helicopter fly right through the arch, Harrier jet hover over and fly down Mississipp, and a 737 at about 500' fly down the river. You guys had a nice tour. Nice plane, hanger, and even a tug at the end. Good deal
Thanks for watching Scott! Glad that made your afternoon. :) When I came across that in the editing, there was no way that wasn't going to go in! I would have loved to watch a helo fly under the arch. Thanks for the nice words about my flying setup. I'm very happy/fortunate to have it/her.
Was at the Arch 17 yrs ago. Amazing structure. Awesome fly-by view...😃👍👌👊🛩🎥
This is exactly what CZcams in 2006 was supposed to be about. People vlogging themselves & their life. This channel is so cool
What an AWSOME video, ATC Communications was an added GREAT extra. You are definitely a Professional at the communications....please do more. Thanks.
Thank you Dave!! I'm really glad you liked it. We have lot's of fun trips planned for this year and I'll keep working on sharing them.
Must be 30 years since I took the 421 into CPS. Thanks for the memory. There was a converted B-25 there at the time. Sweet.
Another great video! This wannabe pilot really enjoys the info you two provide and the great views too. Love getting the ATC info as well. Suggestion: Next time you go somewhere for dinner, pack a lunch to take with you haha
Thanks Ken! I'm glad you think they are turning out okay and the views are good. I will try to grab a couple more cameras from some additional views eventually. I agree with your suggestion! Next time we are packing emergency food.
That was a fun flight, and some nice flying! So cool to see the St. Louis Arch like that.
Thanks Reuben! That was a first for me as well. Glad to be able to share it.
Things don't always go as planned, but it was still a fun flight with you two. Great view of the arch ! Well presented and I'm looking forward to your next flight !
Thank you Alan! Things rarely go as planned 100% for me but we always try to stay safe and have fun! More to follow.
Finally got around to watching this trip. Nice to see DEC again. Passed my PPL checkride there in 2014. Had lunch there afterwards. Good food!
Greetings from Palm Springs, CA I am retired (LEO) from the Chicago area. I enjoy your videos. Stay warm out there.
Glad you enjoy them Robert! Thank you for you service and I'm glad you were able to make it out safely! I'm a Georgia boy myself and don't think I'll ever adjust to these winters!
Love your commentary on ground conditions along the way.
Another GREAT video.... Thank you for taking us along
Thanks for coming along Brian!
Cool video. My father was one of the arch fabricators for PDM in Warren, Pa. He was very proud of this monument. Thanks for the air tour!
Thank you! That's really cool about your dad working on the arch! Glad you enjoyed the aerial view.
Outstanding video ... really enjoyed the arch tour, fun to listen to you both chat about life in ATC and listen to how professional you both are in the cockpit.
While not a pilot myself, have a couple of friends that I get to fly with - while not a long flight from Aurora, go fly into Clow Int'l for breakfast - fantastic little diner there, on a sunny summer Sunday that place is as busy as ORD with pilots flying in for $100 omelettes. Another great diner is found at KLNR - Lone Rock WI - about 50 miles NW of Madison. And the airport in Sheboygan has an outstanding restaurant as well - great dinner spot, fly home after dark, pass the Milwaukee and Chicago lakefronts down your right wing, head west to Aurora after you pass Lake Calumet and avoid the MDW Class Bravo.
I'm hooked - keep producing great stuff!
Thanks again Stewart! We have lot's more planned. I'll check out some of the places you listed. The only one we've done is Sheboygan and that was great.
So glad you got the 310 sound in the background. Sounds awesome
Thank you Zack. Glad you liked it! Someone suggested it before (can't remember who) and I realized I forgot it on the first one. I will make sure to keep putting it in.
Thanks for your ATC view/info. That makes things a lot better for us all.
You're welcome...glad you enjoyed it.
And another great video. I flew checks from Little Rock to St Louis Downtown in a C340 and sometimes a Barron. Leave LR at 5 get there and eat dinner in restaurant on the field. Very good eats there. Leave at midnight and head home. Your videos are educational and entertaining. Thanks
Thank you....glad you're enjoying them!
I drove over that bridge there from I-70 to I-44 back in '99 on my way to AZ from MA. This flight brought back some memories! Looks much more spectacular from the air than it does from the side window of an '86 Grand Marquis. ☺️
Love the flat landscape out there. Looks amazing from the air, covered in snow. Thanks for another great vid! 👍
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it and it could bring back some memories for you. I grew up in southern Appalachia and miss the hills/mountains. That said, around here if you have a problem there are a lot of good farm fields to use in an emergency.
Yeah, that's definitely a good thing! I noticed that when you were taking off in the beginning of the vid - I was saying to myself, "Wow - lots of options for engine out landing!" Around here, you'll be smashing trees, no way around it. There's a few more options where I live than around most of the state, but, there's always going to be either a tree, or wires involved if you come down unexpectedly.
I'm planning on buying a paramotor this summer (quad or trike launch) - cheap way to get myself in the air. I'm already hooked on aviation (thanks to Greg - Premier 1 Driver - blame him 😁), so one way or the other, I'm getting myself airborne. 🙂 Someday I may just be able to get my pilot's license - who knows what the future holds. :)
Good luck on getting up in the air one way or another! It's addictive for sure.
I used to fly club airplanes (C-172, C-182, PA-28R) from SUS in the 1970s and took our version of the arch tour (SUS east to the river, north, then west and back to SUS counterclockwise around the city) many evenings. It was always a great time. We also visited most of the airports within about 100 miles (UIN, COU, CGI, SPI, MWA) including DEC, where my aunt and uncle lived. Thanks for the great video. It brought back memories.
Glad you enjoyed it can glad to bring back fond memories for you!! Back then you could probably get a little closer than you can now days. :)
@@310Pilot Before TCAs we could fly right over the middle of Lambert 2001 AGL without calling anyone. Not smart but legal. Those are also the VOR-DME days without even RNAV. If they weren't busy at Scott AFB you could shoot PAR approaches to minimums. No landings, of course. Thanks again.
Awesome video guys, always something to learn flying with you.....
I work out of KCPS, I have an office at one of those hangars. Very cool to see it in your video. New subscriber, catching up on your videos. Love them!
Some of the best on the Tube. Love this content.
I’m from IL so it’s cool that I’ve heard of most the cities you talk about or fly into.
Love the videos, great perspective on things. Awesome job, keep them coming. Greetings from “down under!”
Thank you! I'm glad you like them! Australia and New Zealand are in my top tier of places to visit I've never been. Should be lot's more on the way this year.
first time watching your videos you guys make a great team
Thank you Richard! We have several nice flights planned for the year. Hopefully you like what we keep doing here.
Smooth! My first trip to see the arch! Your videos make me wish I had kept my little Cessna 150
Thanks Terry! This was my first trip as well. From the air at least. I learned to fly (through solo) in a Cessna 150. Hope you still get a chance to fly some!
You nailed that landing! Awesome flight!
What a Smooth, Sultry voice...no wonders you let her handle the radio work ; )Another Great video guys.
Thank Jon...glad you liked it!
No, Thank You! for the awesome videos. I just found you guys not to long ago and now I have to binge watch : )
Love the night flight video, awesome!
I flew that area for my cross country back in the 90's, the guys at Scott Air Force base let me fly over the base that day! and St. louis down town parks were awesome , planning on going there again , nice trip , great video.
Glad you enjoyed it and we could take you back to your fond flying in the area! :)
Love the video's and the ATC info, makes me want to drive to airport now and get current. Subscribed and looking forward to the next video. Cheers.
Thank you Dan! Lot's more videos planned this year. I took a few years off from flying and am super happy to have gotten back into it!
Just found you guys! You are very reminiscent of my time as an Air Force Controller / GA pilot many, many moons ago..... Grand Forks Approach. I love how you function as a crew and add little tidbits of information about ATC in your flights. Keep up the great work!! Who knows, maybe one day I'll be talkin' to ya!! I'm just down the road a bit in Indiana!!
Glad you found us and thanks for your service! I did my AF ATC time down in Eglin, FL. Do you know a lady by the name of Beth that was at Grand Forks/ AF ATC? Hope to talk to you one day...make sure to say hey.
What are your operator initials? I was LG..... And no, no Beth when I was there. 80-82.... then on to Eifel Approach Control, Spangdahlem AB, Germany..... And thank you for your service! And your and your wife's continued service to avaition!
I'm a few months behind, but I just found your channel--looks like some great stuff to catch up on. You were right over my house at 12:38! Gonna pay more attention to that tail number for sure--love following local pilots.
Glad you found us and that you are liking the channel so far! We have some friends that are controllers down at STL so between that and flying over to places we seem to be down that way semi-frequent. Love the area.
Sure glad you share and teach us!
Love it. I wish some day that I would get the chance to go up in a small aircraft. Looks like an amazing experience.
You two are very organized. Enjoying your vids.
Thank you Stephen...glad you enjoyed it! :)
Another great video. Thanks
Your welcome Donnie. Glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for the ride! You two make quite a team.
Thank you Robert! Glad you enjoyed it.
Awesome! I fly out of SET just North West of STL and flew to DEC for lunch last summer. It's nothing special, but restaurants on field are becoming more and more rare so it's always good to check them out before they close for good!
Thank you Mike! I agree with you that many times the food is nothing too special but on field restaurants are becoming more rare and I'd like to help out the ones still around a little by visiting them.
Very cool flight thnk you guys first for me to have controller make videos of them flying 😀😀😀😀👍🏻
Glad you like it Marin. Thanks for watching!
Admire your lifestyle and the knowledge you two have.
Thank you George!
Great video! I gotta go up and do that tour! It's cool to see how much your workload is reduced just by having someone there to handle the radios. Keep it up, looking forward to the next trip.
Thank you Stan. It is a fun tour and the STL controllers are all very accommodating. She is the worlds best co-pilot! Lots of trips planned for this year.
310 Pilot We are headed up to Montana this year for our big trip. We can’t wait. Planning on having the GoPro ready for parts of that for sure. Planning on touring the Black Hills, Mt. Rushmore and Crazyhorse. 😎
You guys can answer this, is it possible to visit and “tour” the local app/dep radar facilities, and if so, how do you get that arranged?
That sounds like an awesome trip! We are planning to do that one as well one day. Look forward to seeing it if you share it. Reference the tour: Yes, any pilot can request and will almost always receive a tour of any FAA ATC facility. Just call the facility, say you are a local pilot and ask for a tour. If you need help finding a number to call, let me know the facility and I will get it for you.
310 Pilot I most definitely will. Thank you for the offer. If you guys ever get down to OKC, give me a shout and we’ll get a burger somewhere.
Great flight, you have one helluva co pilot there helping to reduce the workload. Fantastic view of the arch although it did seem a bit bumpy at times. This is the 2nd video in a row iv'e watched where you miss out on dinner, 3rd time lucky maybe ? Love the lights among the snow on approach.
Thank you Spiro! Sorry about the camera there. Wanted to keep it on the outside view since flying past the Arch was the main part but I didn't have it stabilized correctly. I'm still learning but will keep working to make these better. Not sure why we are in such a flying for food slump right now. We will get it next time!! I wasn't sure how the return at dusk would look...turned out pretty cool. I'll have to toy with that some more.
Great flying you two! Beautiful Cessna 310 as well. Maybe one day, I'll graduate to a twin lol. Excellent video!
Thank you Christopher! Good luck in your upgrade training. :)
Great shot of the Arch!
Great to see you both again in your Beautiful 310 ! How are you both doing? Great to have you both to give me another ride to Tour the Architecture look over St. Louis on this cold day and the Performance on takeoff to climb out of as you said at 1500 feet per minute which is very good and lean at peak on all cylinders is great with a cylinder head monitoring both engines helps out a lot to save fuel means a lot .As air traffic controllers your First officer does a professional job on ATC communication that a real help to you while you are flying and navigating and looking out for other traffic during the RNAV approach to the low pass over the airport. Thank for sharing and I'll be ready for the next cross country flight.
We are doing great Bernard. Thanks for watching again! I agree, cold weather can be fun for performance. That 1500 fpm was at 160 mph indicated. About 40 faster than Vy! That Insight monitor we have is awesome for LOP and general data! The miles per gallon really increase LOP...she runs smooth now but I am anal and will keep tweaking the injectors till I get them how I want. My FO is amazing! I'm a very luck guy.
Boy it’s funny the difference it is
I’ve seen truck videos on u tube
But your plane. What a difference
Thanks u can see got mlles really
Enjoy this.
Drive right by you guys all the time on our way from Champaign to Woodstock! I'll keep an eye out for 1BC!!
Great video, looking forward to see more.
Thank you! Should have another one up soon. Shooting for ever week or two.
Thanks for having us along ,pretty long day , I felt your hunger
Thanks for coming along! The next time we plan on getting food, I'm packing a back up plan! :)
Haha, picking up an IFR with your own flight strip is next level!
Thats funny! It does make for an easy read back after getting a full route clearance! :)
Love Jaime's professional manner!
She's a pro! Great to have along to help work the radio's and make me smile.
Great job guys. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, glad you liked it!
ForeFlight kept crashing on my iPad mini too. The only fix was to replace the iPad. This all happened days before my IFR checkride too... nothing like a little additional stress. Great videos, keep them coming.
Thank you! Should have lot's more fun ones coming your way this year. Thanks for the heads up on the iPad. Have been trying to figure what size to get next but think I am going to have to get a Mini4 for the size.
K and J this is one on my bucket list!
A gorgeous day for flying.
Great video. I'm learning to fly at DPA and don't live too far from ARR so it's nice to see video from the area. Keep the video's coming.
Thank you! I rented planes from IAA at DPA for a while before buying. We have several fun flights planned this year. I will try to put them all up. Glad you like them.
